  1. TLDR; anyone know an AM4 motherboard with dual HDMI out or (less ideally) a 1440p 60Hz DisplayPort to HDMI adapter? Building my dad a PC and want minimal points of failure cause I hate being tech support so going 5600G (onboard graphics) with dual 1440p 60 Hz HDMI monitors he already has, only problem is that the adapters for DisplayPort/HDMI I have atm are 1080p... The video outs he has now are one HDMI and one DisplayPort so one is on the 'blurry' 1080p adapter so I wanted a motherboard with dual HDMI output but can't find any.... other alternative is to use a 1440p 60hz compatible DisplayPort -> HDMI adapter note - I'm not building the whole pc to solve this one problem, he needs a new one anyway Budget (including currency): cheapest possible Country: UK Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: N/A Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 5600G,
  2. Screen polarisation. I got a new pair of polarised shades and now I have to tilt my head 45° right to see my phone at full brightness (pixel 7)
  3. - glass scratch resistance; phone screens & backs, laptop screens, camera lenses... - headphone padding softness, headband and ear cup - laptop cooling fan noise - laptop (or folding phone) hinge resistance (ONE FINGER OPEN-ABILITY like alex does on shortcircuit) and "wiggle room" (elastic adjustability without the hinge actually moving, floppyness, looseness, wobblyness, hinge rigidity, hard to explain what I mean...) - minimum peak brightness, I wanna watch tv in bed - noise cancelling pressure feeling and hissing - some headphones sound worse while you are using the mic like my BOSE QC35ii's, audio while on the phone or discord is doodoo - headphone ear cup depth, I don't like when my ear touches the inside of my headphones, again my QC35ii's fit my ears without touching, the sony WH-1000XM2's do not, they push my ears back towards the side of my head. - I have no idea how but please find a way to PROVE that windows is TERRIBLE at handling bluetooth devices. not really a test but if you do in depth product reports then materials reports, i.e. super close up photos of the leather texture on a headphone cup and stuff like that Also do a checklist comparison tool! I wanna tick the features I care about like battery capacity, screen resolution and peak brightness and filter out the other info so that no matter what else there is about those laptops I pick the cheapest one that meets MY needs. For the audio products please include in the product page a recording from inside the dummy head with/without noise cancelling while playing different standardized unwanted sounds outside the head and maybe include these recordings in the comparison tool too.
  4. I have only used cheap sticker-on-the-wall ones but I'm sure there's a way to make a durable, flexible, whiteboard surface. I envision just a small a4 or a5 patch in the top right corner or something but some note-taking space is nice without having to hunt down some paper. I know having to keep a whiteboard pen nearby would be annoying, a magnetic pen or something is way over-engineered too but you're the geniuses you figure it out. perhaps just a magnetic-backed whiteboard as an add-on like a fridge magnet one.
  5. the backup option sounds great actually, I hadn't thought of that. I'll get a 2TB sata one for normal use, use the 256 sata one as backup and the nvme one as OS and some extra space left over no way am I going back to hard drives, the sound of it spinning up when I boot up annoys me too much
  6. honestly the best looking cases IMO are the ones luke used for geodude, the phanteks enthoo evolv tg matx cases (my matx came with 2 x 140mm PWM fans) space for 2x 120mm + 1x 140mm in the front, 1x 140mm in the back, 2x 140mm up top - all the 140's can also be 120's but not vice versa holy cow I think I must've gotten it on sale they're so expensive here in uk, hope it's affordable where you are https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/LhkwrH/phanteks-case-phes515etgag
  7. I have quite a strange combination of drives at the moment, I'm out of storage and have some spare cash for an upgrade but I need some guidance on what to buy and how to use it. Currently I have a 256GB SATA SSD (850 EVO) and a 256GB NVME SSD (960 EVO). I would like to use some sort of caching software/raid array just because it's fun to do so (and with a raid array I'd see less drives and have less organising to do?) but I don't know what's best with my existing combination of drives. My NVME drive could cache for a 1/2TB SATA drive as it has better r/w but then I'll have no use for my existing SATA drive or is there some way I can RAID a 1/2TB SATA drive with my existing 256GB SATA drive, then use my NVME drive as a cache for that array? Quick googling says I can't effectively RAID drives of different sizes as it treats them all as the size of the smallest drive which is a phat waste. I want at least a TB of total storage and *can* afford a TB NVME SSD but would obviously rather get a cheaper SATA one and use caching to get it working even better. (I have a caching software license but am AMD and I think they now have a free one) I'm very lost, please help

  9. Guys help please, I have an R9 380 and it shows up as R9 200 series in F@H Control... and runs at 0% when power settings are full and it goes to screensaver (screenshot taken immediately after screen turned back on after having dinner)
  10. Uhh where will the entry form be? just another post like this one?
