  1. Managed to totally miss that... OP should update the BIOS if he hasnt.
  2. Not everybody can afford to hop ship, up and go to another state. What if you have kids in school? Are they supposed to be cool with leaving out of nowhere?

    Remember kids, keep a backup of everything you dont wanna lose!
  4. Necessary "Lets keep this civilized" comment here. Losing Tesla, though impactful, wouldn't kill Cali. They still have all of silicon valley, and losing one wouldn't kill anybody. The losers would be Tesla's employees being unemployed.
  5. God bless Hirens Boot CD. Absoutely, by far, without a doubt, the best bootable recovery media out there. Has saved my ass so many times (and is actively saving my ass right now after I erm... dropped my 8TB HDD my hard drive died

  6. 5120x2880 per monitor X 4 monitors. So, you are not pushing your limits at all.
  7. The 7770 would be an upgrade over Vega 8, so i'd include it in the build. Thats a grey label VS, not orange. They are fine, "C Tier" units. Perfect use case for them as your system consumes a very little amount of power. The old orange label VS units were bombs.
  8. Nope, bottleneck calculators are absolute garbage and should never be trusted. I play at 1440p 144Hz flawlessly. The word "bottleneck" somehow managed to get demonized in the past year and a half or so, and im not sure how. You will always be bottlenecked in some way, even if its a couple percent. No system will perfectly match up in every game you play. Just choose your components based off of informed decisions and you will have a fantastic gaming experience.
  9. What temps are your CPU/GPU running at under load? Has the laptop ever been torn apart and cleaned?
  10. Should tell you all you need to know about bottleneck calculators...
  11. Case first, that looks horrid for airflow.
  12. Nice. No difference to me though, I could never jive with windows on mobile devices. Owned a couple surface pro's over the years and just didnt much care for them. I would much rather carry around a macbook pro and iPad/iPad Pro. They will sell a whole bunch of them, im just not the target audience.
  13. I used to drink 2 or 3 every day, for a while. Now its at most an average of one a day (some days I have none, others i have 2, ect...) Though, I have a more acceptable reason for it. I have severe bipolar depression, and can't take medication for it. C affine, for some reason, keeps me at a good level emotionally without the normal caffeine side effects. Though, Rockstar is disgusting IMO.

    I think I just need a replacement mouse. My G30…

    @Techstorm970 Using a viper ultimate as we speak, best mouse I've ever used. 100x better than my old g903 or gpro. All up to opinion and experience though. I'll never be buying logi again

    And the G303 isn't too small for you? My hands are similar in size, and I use a viper ultimate. However, I am left handed, so i need the ambi shape. If you like the G303 size, here you go- https://www.amazon.com/Razer-Viper-Ultralight-Gaming-Mouse/dp/B084RPZD6T If you want a larger mouse of a similar shape- https://www.amazon.com/Razer-Viper-Ultralight-Gaming-Mouse/dp/B07TT8G59J?th=1 If you want to spring for wireless (much more expensive)- https://www.amazon.com/Razer-Viper-Ultralight-Gaming-Mouse/dp/B08565C5BB?th=1
  16. What PSU do you have? It shouldn't have tried to boot at all. But, with that being said, all you did was short 12v to ground. The likelihood of this killing the GPU is slim, unless you bought some stupid cheap PSU with no over current protection.

    The G303 has a really weird shape, oof. How big are your hands (measured as pictured)? What came to mind first was the razer viper mini (which is wired only), but it's a different shape though overall very close in size.
  18. Sounds like Intel's turbo boost logarithm. It will not hold that indefinitely from stock. Install Intel XTU and crank up the turbo duration.
  19. Id rather the 4 TB3 version have spec-down versions with 8GB RAM and 256GB of storage, along with a price cut across the 13" pro lineup
  20. Thats about as hot as I would be comfortable going. Has the card ever been torn apart and cleaned?
  21. According to Gamers Nexus, the absolute best CPU cooler for Ryzen right now is the Arctic Liquid Freezer II line. Though, good luck finding any at the moment... I had a similar issue with my 3900x and wraith cooler, the issue is that the temp the CPU idles at is between two fan targets. Install the fan control software for your motherboard and adjust the fan curve to your liking (or do it in BIOS)
  22. The 2 TB3 model is stupid, and has no reason to exist. Just kill it already, please. Other than that, a great though incremental upgrade. Would have liked to see a price cut, as $1700 is a lot to swallow for a base model. 512GB of base storage and 16GB of base RAM for the 4 TB3 model is great though, and likely part of the reason.
