    I meant older GPUs and monitors. Like, 90% of the total amount of GPUs/monitors out there. 
     
    And why not AGP as well?

    DVI deserves to live. DP is newer, higher bandwidth and a bit more adaptable but DVI can be split into almost as much as DP... and 90% of GPUs and monitors have it

    No kidding. SWe killed off parallel ports, DVI (or better or for worse), serial ports (ditto) yet VGA refuses to die...

    USB and PS2 are not too hard to adapt

    Of course for mouse with this one but it's pretty much the same for keyboard

    Hey fellow nerds! A friend asked me today if I could give him a parts list to upgrade from an AM2+ / AM3 era CPU and a GTX960. I'm trying to bump him up to 1440p if I can, but i'm finding it rather difficult to do on the fly, and am going to lean on the forum to help me polish it up.

    I literally put this together in 10 minutes whille in my work bathroom, so I dont want to here any sh**** jokes! 😛 
     
    No biases to Team red vs Blue or Team Green Vs Red (Vs Blue), but I was gunning for the 6950x due to it's incredibly low price right now and how it tends to crush the new 4070 in 1440p. Everything else is completely open to change, even the GPU. Ideally the 1440p monitor should be over 75mhz, but the friend is generally okay with 1080p (which then the 6950x is way overkill for....)

    Thanks for the concern everyone. We are still in recovery mode over here and working with YouTube to get everything restored. Will hopefully have a video (or at least an update on WAN Show) to share with you all ASAP, but we want to make sure we get the details right since smaller channels may rely on our experience to help harden their own security.

    Another youtuber got hacked a month ago with the same and he said it took him over a week to get his channel back as two factor verification failed on him and they changed his details he said a company sent him a game to try and promote on his channel and the virus software said it was fine but it copied all his details and they got in that way

    I did some digging on the wallets they listed and it looks like about 37 people fell for this. You can also see the wallet totals. It could be that they use multiple wallets, but they didn't change for me, when refreshing their page.

    dbrand Project Killswitch, now with 100% less Magnets:

     
    Hello there:

     
    The whole bundle:

    Killswitch, Stick grips, Skin in Navy Cameo, Screen protector. Will add pictures once I've applied the Skin and Screen protector.
     


     
    This says "Fuck Magnets" in Binary:

    Their new Mounting Design is pretty genius actually.
     
    Kickstand in action:




     
    Even fits into the Standard Steamdeck case, tho without the front cover of course:

     
    My "Special Instructions" were: "Linus from LTT playing with his Steamdeck". Good job Robot 179:

     
    The Stick grips feel so good and are a great add on, even just those are worth buying if you don't like the rest of the Killswitch bundle and are a Steamdeck owner and would like for your Stock grips to feel more comfortable.
     
    With everything applied:

    i bought a used 4k moniter a while ago and when i wanted to go check on it now and compare it to other 4k pc moniters i found out that the name doesn't exist apperently. Windows and nvidea control panel both tell me that my moniter is call "AOC U2879g6" and that moniter is no where to be found anywhere? can someone help or knows the moniter? the closest i have seen is "AOC U2879VF" that looks exactly like my moniter but why would my pc tell me that it has another name then? :/

    Having some crazy issues getting this to work.
     
    I don't know where to start.
     
    So Currently I have a fully licensed version of ESXi 6.5 (Update 3 version 650.U3.9.6.10)
    HP DL385 Gen8 
    32 CPUs x AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 6376
    127.97 GB of Ram
    AMD FirePro S9300 x2  ((one card))  I am using the AMD FirePro Retail WHQL -15.201.2401
     
    This card is currently plugged into the Mezzanine x16 card slot and powered approperatly.
     
     
    When I try to pass through it works so far as in the devices are see by the guest OS, but no matter what drivers I give the guest, I never am able to render on them.
     
    Any ideas? where do i start to debug this?
