  1. Not a bad find, especially for free.99.
  2. That's called overscan. First see if you can adjust it through your TVs settings (on a some sets, setting the input type to PC or game can remedy the issue), but if that doesn't work or exist then you'll need to adjust it through the AMD driver.
  3. RIP to your brave soldier. I pray that I never see the iconic space invaders on my RTX 2080. Unfortunately though it's increasing in likelyhood, they 2000 series is getting up there in age and my current OC is pretty aggressive (and who knows what the previous owner did to it).

    Jeez, the starter toner in my printer is a joke…

    I would sooner shoot myself in the cock and balls with birdshot than own an HP printer.
  5. Jeez, the starter toner in my printer is a joke. 190 pages and it's at like 40% remaining (for context, proper TN730, 760, and 770 carts are rated for up to 1200, 3000, and 4500 pages respectively).

      One of those things can be repaired, and it's not the HP

  6. So I just got an MP600 PRO LPX and I'm very surprised that I haven't had any stability issues. My Z690I Aorus Ultra DDR4 is one of the boards which has a hardware-level issue with Gen4 devices (which this SSD is), and for shits n gigs I left it in Gen4 mode to see if anything would happen... Nothing yet.

  7. I wonder if all those caps are actually for dumping data to the drive in the event of a power loss... That would be very server-esque.
  8. When my friend and I (mainly me lol) built his new PC, we could not get it to post to save our lives so we were both panicking a little bit, him because he thought his 4080, 7800x, or whatever Gigashite board was broke, and myself because I didn't want him to think I broke it. Turns out it just will not post with one specific flash drive plugged in.
  9. I have one of these myself with the 1315U, 8GB of RAM, 256GB MP9B1, but the top-spec 1080p touch display and they're amusingly competent. I threw ThrottleStop on mine to let the 1315U go nuts and if you load up the GPU and CPU you can see 35-40W sustained which is hilarious... And somehow adequately cooled. And the display is honestly dope, colors seem pretty good, brightness is decent enough, and the fact that Lenovo is the only company with the balls to do a matte touchscreen makes it an automatic W in my book.

    One moment you are thinking what to eat, next m…

    With how close my sub is to my ass it may as well be one.
  11. Can't really go wrong with a Team MP33 or MP34.
  12. I actually use Snipe-IT personally because I'm really good at shuffling parts between PCs and then not knowing where the fuck it is when I actually need it. At least this way there's a nice easy QR code on everything I can scan to hold myself accountable, not to mention being able to see what location things are at (like my desk, in different storage drawers, etc), and if you REALLY feel extra you can input the cost of things so you can see just how much of your money you've wasted. You can also use it for software licenses which is handy yet again for me due to the same reason lol

    Yeah another member on here actually sent it to me YEARS ago.

    As long as I have my engineering sample GTX 480 I'm happy with life. I will never sell that card even if my life depended on it.
  15. Yeah it really just depends how dusty your environment is. Even though my PC doesn't have filters, it moves a fairly considerable amount of air, is on at least 12 hours a day on average, and we have a cat, I barely even need to dust it out once every two years.

    It's fine I'll just whip out the "hardware I need to hoard collect" or my Plex library info/purchase link Excel spreadsheets

    Ah. So that means I'm the
  18. Honestly I think the iPad would do worse in that aspect. I have both an iPhone 7 and an SE2 so I've got both chips in question: The iPhone 7 got hot enough to where it wasn't comfortable to hold just by leaving the camera recording 4K30 for an extended duration (and as such got so hot the display dimmed, so you KNOW that bitch was throttling), and the SE2 has only ever gotten warm at best no matter what torture I've put it through. Sure glass isn't a great heat conductor, but the 7 would noticeably throttle just using it normally and the SE2 doesn't.

    Don't tell me our dumbasses were both able to recognize it being one of those funny HPs from like a decade ago because of the font...
  20. 32GB isn't even really small for just games, it's just small in general. My 15 Pro Max only has Pokemon GO on it as far as games go, and if we subtract downloaded music I'm sitting at 68GB used. That being said, the SE2 will pretty much universally run laps around a 7th gen iPad. A significantly faster chip (Geekbench 6 puts the SE2 at literally twice the performance as the 7th gen iPad, though I think real-world it's more like 60-70%) with a lower resolution screen makes it a pretty one-sided battle. Not to mention the A13 keeps its cool pretty well even in the SE, whereas the A10 was a hot little fucker.
  21. I paid entirely too much for one of these: A BNIB Microsoft Pro IntelliMouse in Shadow Black. I wanted to get both the Pro and standard versions when they were still in production and I'm paying the price for not doing so. Very early impressions are good, all things considered. I absolutely love the smaller ambi style of the G203 and GPW, however for being a bigger ergo mouse meant for righties the Pro IntelliMouse is very comfy. And the software is... Surprisingly good. So far only complaint is that the left/right clicks are very snappy and a bit on the loud side, and I guess my universal hatred for braided cables on mice.

    Beside the age of my current rig ... I am wonde…

    It's definitely a case of having your own expectations I think. I have a 2080 and I genuinely cannot wait for the day to come that I can replace it. Like yes, generally speaking at 1440p it's a totally capable card but after having a taste of a 4080 IRL I just hate it.
  23. I love me some Windows boxes, Vista and ME's are also great looking tbh.
  24. All the time on wall, and 25w max on battery. ThrottleStop lets you adjust the max power limits and after that it's just a guessing game for if your machine will support it.
