  1. I think I was one of the few excited for this feature, and as another commentor stated, it was to half baked. Had to do so many workarounds to get things working. Several commands ran through terminal just to get a single app running outside of the amazon storefront. All the while, performance was very inneficient and pretty sure it partially killed my Surface Pro 7 as the device heated to all hell using a non 3D app.
  2. A bit late here, but alot of the final fantasy and dragon quest games have official and good ports to mobile. If you like RPGs they are worth a check. Star rail is pretty fun as well even as FTP game but has gacha elements. As for other mentions, personally I have used PPSSPP on phones since galaxy S4 days and performance for PSP emulation is great.
  3. Does the cpu fan spin if plugged into another fan connector? You can bypass the warning just for a check. If it doesnt, might be a defective heatsink. If it does, then maybe a bad port on the mobo, which you can either RMA, or use a jumper to "trick" into thinking something is plugged in.
  4. If this was a domain pc, are there any group policies / scripts that may not have been pushed to the new PC to redirect usage. In the past I have seen things like documents folder getting routed into onedrive without user intervention.
  5. Out of curiosity did you ever get this working OP? I was gifted a Y60 that I want to use but was running into a very similar situation with an avermedia dual capture card (has 2 hdmi in and a out so cant be half heightrd) and a 3080.
  6. Welp gave it a fair shot today, tried the latest 2 BIOS revisions to no luck. Tried various other settings with CSM on / off, attempting to repair windows, another attempt at re-install, and disabling intel rapid storage but no luck. Got scared as I guess in all the bios setting switches, I almost corrupted my old install when I put the 12700k and it took a few boots before it would load back in, so I guess im done trying this for now. A part of the story I left out is that I did buy another motherboard and have enough components for a HTPC I was gonna slot the 12700k into afterwards, so I tried the 13700k in that system. No issues at all and was able to get a fresh install of windows 11 up to the network screen. Still baffled at why I can't just do a slot in upgrade with the first Z690, or even at least do a fresh install with the new CPU, but after not having my PC for a few days guess ill just dwell on it until I find the motivation to try more tinkering with it. Guess next step would be to nag asus customer support....
  7. Ill give this a shot after I get out of work and see where it lands me.
  8. Hello LTT forum. After a few days of intermittent troubleshooting, I am starting to run out of ideas and really hope someone else has seen this issue. Recently I was able to acquire a 13700k and opted it would be cool to upgrade the 12700k in my rig to it. My motherboard is a Asus TUF Gaming Z690-Plus D4 with the latest 2802 bios so I figured this would be a slot in upgrade. I get a post and can reach bios no issue after slotting in the new CPU. However, after slotting in the new CPU the bios doesn't seem to properly recognize any of my drives. Right after I slot in the new CPU, the AMI page shows them as existing, but once I get into the advance menu they do not appear under NVMe devices or the HDD section. I can still see the Samsung 980 Pro as a boot path, but after a few spins of the windows circle, it always errors out saying inaccessible boot device. Putting in the old CPU, everything works again and I can boot into windows 11. I have tried resetting the bios settings by removing the CMOS battery and clicking the load optimize defaults option to no success. I disabled the RAID 1 I had set in windows and removed an extra NVMe drive in case I ran out of PCIe lanes to no dice. I reseated the CPU in the midst of going back and forth and each time and the old one continues to work so don't think its a physical issue at least with the board (can't rule out the CPU yet). Worst is that I was about to give up and tried doing a fresh install of windows after seeing someone with an AMD CPU post something similar and never finding a solution, and none of the drives were visible in the installer. At a real loss for something I thought would be a slot in upgrade. Is there some low key issue with 13th gen on Z690 where sometimes they just don't detect storage devices, or do I potentially have a defective CPU? Last thing I can think of trying is maybe rolling back a single BIOS in the event the 14th gen update borked something recursively, but it will have to wait until tomorrow.
  9. I ordered one and only got the legs on the first day. I reached out to amazon, who contacted the seller, and they said they ship legs and tabletop seperately to avoid damage. I got a fed ex tracking number and it showed up a day later. Hope this helps, best bet is to still shoot a message to the seller via amazon asap for documentation.
  10. Hopefully optimistic they keep things mostly the same, but just add more flair to it. I joined the keyboard club when they were selling it for 1$ promo, so excited to see some of the new products. With a lot of other spots to buy similar stuff as well, not to concerned if it goes downhill.
  11. Its not a bad idea to do that upgrade if you can find it cheap enough, tho another option could be to keep that tower as a backup, and look on aliexpress or ebay for cheap older AM4 bundles that could be in the same cost ballpark as that older cpu, but leave you with alot more headroom. If you do go the 4790k route, definitely see if there is a cooler upgrade that fits in your case as those optiplexs generally dont use standard options and tend to be underpowered. Also cross reference a tool (google is your friend) to make sure you have enough headroom on your powersupply as if you are rocking the stock one that came with that PC it might be tight with the GPU already installed. (Dont forget to pull the powersupply out as they tend to have markings letting you know how much they can output on the unit itself). End of the day, it depends on what you are trying to do, budget, expected gains, and location. But also dont skimp on research just to make sure everything works, and you get the best value for your dollar.
  12. I would love this on the sole premise of apps that lose functionality due to apples store policies (think something like the state of IOS floatplane). I tried to use a wifi scanning app on a iphone SE the other day and it lost so much functionality compared to android that I think this is necessary.
  13. As a pixel 7 pro user, there are some features I really like about the newer pixel devices, like the ability to create live translated captions on youtube, and use google translate with photos. I came from a Note 9 and two of the features im sorely missing are samsung dex and the better integration with windows phone link where I could stream my phone onto my PC very easily. The pixel 7 pro feels really buggy as well at times, something I never had with my note 9, where occasionally the phone just hangs during certain apps, gets stuck on unlock, when putting to sleep the screen stays active just long enough that it can accidentally click something when being put away, etc. The screen on the pixel 7 pro also feels way more fragile, I hadn't scratched my old note 9 in 5 years without a screen protector, but the pixel 7 pro got scratched within a week of me owning it with not drops. This is just my experience from both brands, I don't know if the A54 will get all the same love the Note did as thats comparing a budget model to the flagship, but thats my experience moving between the two brands. The different android skins honestly didn't feel that different to me other than the major android upgrades I got with the new phone, and having to teach myself the flipped back & menu button location (I prefer samsungs way). I plan to return to samsung after my few years with the pixel 7 if nothing else piques my interest, but the pixel 7 will probably get better with software updates so its not to bad.
  14. In the states I used Letgo, Facebook marketplace, and Craigslist back when I refurbed machines destined for ewaste. Depending on the specs and condition of the machine, what you may earn from it varies, but generally there are people out there who just need a machine for browsing the web, and as long as it powers on and does that you may be able to sell it.
  15. Bad Rats. It doesnt get more on depth than this.
