  1. It has been mentioned but you know what was also less then 200$? The Wii U controller, which was essentially a better in almost any way except range. Anyway aside from missing bluetooth support, ps cloud support and missed opportunities for local playing of lighter games (maybe psp?)... The main thing this review misses as do most other reviews: Many normal non-tech savvy consumers will see this thing buy it and likely get a stuttery laggy low quality stream. Why? Because most people have a bad Wi-Fi setup. Their PS5 connected to Wi-Fi, low reception in another room. Why wasn't this tested? It seems this was tested in pretty ideal conditions, close to the PS5, which was likely connected to ethernet, but this was not disclosed. This whole device is so niche and instead they could have easily done so much more with it. It's just a bunch of missed opportunities. Oh yeah and one more thing, repairability is not mentioned. And it's seems to be terrible, this device is just intended to be replaced once something happens with it. AKA as also already mentioned E-Waste...
  2. Last week, I'm not exactly sure when, somehow my sleep mode stopped working on Windows 11. Windows no longer puts my computer to sleep automatically neither does the start menu button for sleep work or the win+x shortcut. However there a way I still CAN get my computer to sleep is when I use ctrl+alt+del and use the bottom right menu for sleep. At this point I've tried literally everything I can think of. What I've already tried: Changing power plans, settings etc. (tested PCI link management toggle as well) Disable/Re-enable Hibernate Checked event viewer, nothing useful found. (tried pressing the sleep button etc checking logs after. nothing there) Checked a few services Closed tons of processes one by one and checking if sleep button works afterwards Powercfg /energy checked USB devices Disconnected all USB devices Disconnected 2nd monitor/tv Ran DISM & SFC scans Updated all chipset drivers/windows etc Using startallback, uninstalled and checked. Created a new local windows user (same problem) After creating a new user and the problem persisting I'm thinking it's unlikely to be any setting/application issue. Considering ctrl+alt+del works I'm kind of thinking it's a permissions issue or something, how to fix it though, no idea... Any suggestions are welcome, except reinstalling Windows . There's too much stuff I'd have to reinstall and configure, like mods, small utilities etc. That's a last resort.
  3. Alright thanks all. I'm definitely skipping the hardware raid then. Was going for enterprise grade SSD's anyway, so software raid it is.
  4. I'm looking at replacing a server for a small business. However I don't have that much knowledge about server hardware. I'm wondering whether it would be necessary or even preferable to have a hardware raid controller instead of just software raid. It's gonna be a Windows server, separate VM's for FS and DC. But there's not really gonna be much data on there, it's mainly domain profiles and some user files. None of it is 'mission critical'. Would there even be any benefits to having hardware raid in this case? Maybe less downtime for hardware failure?
  5. Considering they are already this comparable in such a short time makes me believe there is a reasonable chance they will surpass the competition in the coming years. Even if only based on how much funding they can spend on R&D. But let's say they do surpass, I feel like this might impact the 'gaming' market as well. If the fastest (and low power/heat?)gaming performance can be had on a Mac (for a reasonable price, not the current pricing), eventually developers will start porting/making games for it as well. Apple's got plenty costumers so there will be enough motivation for developers to develop for MacOS. I'm not a Mac guy, but If there's one that has that kind of performance and that low power and heat, sign me up. I feel like this eventually would have a big impact on the PC market in many ways. Anyway it's all just speculation, but I'm just wondering... There might be a big shift coming.
  6. Let's keep it insult-free shall we? My question isn't about whether the charts are believable or not, I clarified in the initial post 'assuming the charts are true'. As I also already mentioned there was not enough info in the charts, you're mostly saying what I already said/clarified. I'm mostly asking about the long run here, how this might affect the PC/market. The point about Nvidia making GPU's for 28 years is mostly moot. Lots of knowledge gained 10+ years ago is no longer even relevant and/or already common knowledge nowadays and/or publicly available. Adding to that the amount of money Apple has available for R&D and hiring can make them catch up quite fast, the M1 last year was already quite impressive for a 'first' soc. It is quite possible, maybe even likely, that Apple will surpass AMD/Intel(maybe Nvidia) in their line-ups after this, and I'm talking about consumer use here, not servers/AI etc.
  7. They showed a chart comparing to a 3080 mobile in a Razer laptop. Where it shows performance within about 20% or so of the 3080 at 100w less. There’s plenty of articles about it. It’s supposedly similar or close to a 2080 desktop or 3080 mobile at much lower wattage. Ofcourse the exact performance is hard to tell because the chart doesn’t show enough information about what has been tested etc. But still it’s likely impressive.
  8. I think the reason it hasn't been a really viable platform for gamers has been only partially been because of software (macos) and Apple's lack of interest. I think possibly a big reason is hardware/performance. Apple hadn't really offered good price/performance hardware for gaming before, however starting with these new SOC's I think it will be there in the future, then likely software/developers will follow. And also from what I've read is that Rosetta was pretty decent, I'm assuming Rosetta2 will be a lot better. It's just that I feel like this might be a changing point regarding gaming on Mac's.
  9. I'm wondering what you guys think or expect. We all love extra performance and newer faster hardware. However, assuming Apple's charts are accurate and they can perform close to something like a 3080 (mobile) gpu-wise and close or outperform most other high-end (mobile)CPU's. What will this mean for competition and the PC space. Considering it's unlikely Apple will (ever) allow their sillicon in 3rd party hardware. Will we all be gaming on Apple devices if we want the best performance/battery-life, will this mean we lose freedom to put together your own hardware etc... I'm unclear whether this is a good thing or bad thing in the long run.
  10. At home I have a server setup with docker via unraid. Im running Reverse Proxy Manager for external domains with ssl. Everything is working fine. Now I'm trying to do a similar thing on a VPS from a local webhost. It's running Debian 9 with Directadmin at the moment. Most of it went fine. I've got docker running, apps are reachable through their respective ports. Nginx Proxymanager is running, the default http page is loading successful (https isnt not sure if this matters). Now here is the issue, when trying to setup proxy hosts everything works, it requests the SSL via letsencrypt so this should mean dns is setup properly. Now when I try to forward to any of my subdomains to my docker containers it just keeps on loading till eventually a 504 gateway-timeout pops. However when I forward a subdomain to my Directadmin console at port 2222 it resolves fine. I have tried this on http and https and getting timeouts on both. Initially I did have to disable the apache server running on Directadmin to get NPM to use ports 80/443 I'm not quite sure what would be causing these time-outs only for Docker and not for Directadmin. Any help is appreciated
  11. I mentioned it's a Fractal Design Node 202. The case actually officially only supports up to 2, 120mm case fans. At least without any custom 'hacks'. I have tried intake and exhaust. But I'm gonna try a different case, see how it performs.
  12. Well, I have had a few crashes, also got some artifacting in Battlefront 2 today, not sure if those are caused by the memory though, considering that there have been lots of driver issues with the 5700xt. But yesterday at one point while gaming memory temps reached 98-100c. And from what I've read 95c should be max safe temps. So the issue seems to be temps getting too high. Review on gamersnexus showed this model memory max out at 80-82c for default bios and 90-92c for silentbios.
  13. I'm having an issue with memory temps on my Sapphire 5700XT Pulse. I don't know what's left to try. My memory temps are getting up to 92-98c after gaming for a while, this can be after 15-30mins. I can reproduce this easily after running about 3-4 short furmark tests. My normal GPU temp and almost always even junction temps are lower than my memory temps. For example after 3-4 furmarks, Memory got up to 94c, junction/hot spot to 88c and GPU to 68c. I've tried undervolting, by using adrenalin auto undervolt, have tried it manually as well. Tried DDU a few times as well. I've also tried switching to the silent bios, but this doesn't change much or anything as far as I can see, regarding temperatures. My card is in a Fractal Design Node 202 ITX case, paired with a Ryzen 5 3600. All other temps are fine, cpu is usually pretty low under 70c. There are two 120x15mm Noctua fans right next to the GPU, a few weeks ago they were intake, as this was recommended online, however I noticed high gpu temps. I turned them to exhaust and temps improved alot, however at the time I didn't really checkout memory temps. I now turned one fan back to intake, but memory temps seem similar. I'm wondering why the difference between GPU memory temp and GPU temp is so big. Did I just have bad luck and should I RMA it, or are there ways to fix this? Any suggestions are welcome.
  14. It seems like a great display, and I'd definitely want one but Indeed it's also quite expensive. However if I may suggest another cheaper also quality alternative, I'd recommend looking at a Sony 65XE9005, I've been using one for about a year now. These panels can run 1080p 120hz with HDR. They can be had for about 1200-1600 euros (probably similar in dollars) which is about or less than 1/4 of the price. Overall this model is pretty good, great colors, deep blacks etc, it's not 1000 nits, but it's close enough for the price. And sure it misses some functions like g-sync etc.
