    S w a t s o n reacted to Taf the Ghost in Gamers Nexus alleges LMG has insufficient ethics and integrity   
    The worst part of the entire cycle, to me, is the email chunk GN posted in the second video. How you do send that email response to anyone?  That's a text message to a decade+ buddy about BS, not a work email about someone's very expensive product that you just found out was sold at an auction. What mental gyrations must have happened where a jokey email, after it clearly took some time to track down what happened to the cooler, happens rather than the new CEO sending an apology and a request to sort out the issue.

    S w a t s o n got a reaction from Lurick in Windows 10 and Windows 11 users report issues with stuttering under high CPU loads, with the TPM active {Update, new issues reported. see page 2}   
    I wouldn't say under high load, it used to happen to me in W10 under minimal load, like youtube. Surprised this is "news" because it's been happening basically since I got this video card months ago (reinstalled windows) and I thought it was the card but then I hear about this. Still waiting to see if I fixed it for sure for sure

    S w a t s o n reacted to Sauron in OVH Cloud suffers major fire in Strasbourg datacenter   
    They must have upgraded to 11 series Intel CPUs 😛 
     
    I would assume OVH had a full backup of this datacenter somewhere else... otherwise it would be pretty bad

    OP:
     

     
    This has been a thing with intel for ages. It's like saying the sky is blue at this point.

    S w a t s o n reacted to The Benjamins in Dell introduces "5K" 4K Ultrawide Monitor   
    I think you should update it to 5k ultrawide, thats how Dell is marketing it and its resolution it 5k not 4k.
    4k would be 3840x1600 while this is 5120 x 2160

    They didn't remove it. It's a new feature they are trying. Called "fuck you and enjoy our notch".

    S w a t s o n got a reaction from xgmadmatt in how far can i overclock my rx 580?   
    Not a fan of wattman myself, I'd use a 3rd party tool like trixx or afterburner or something. Might be why you can only go to 30%? Don't be afraid to give it voltage as long as it's not overheating. RX580 does not like to keep high clocks past 70C, but is still safe at that temp
     
    Here's my "safe" overclock if a game doesnt like the 1550 speed or doesn't scale
     
    If you pass superposition or 3d mark consistently it's basically stable. You can definitely mess with both memory and core clock at the same time imo, rx580 can often just do the maximum of 2250 no problem.
     
    Also, git urself a custom fan curve. I have mine set to 0% until 50C and then 15% at 51C, quickly ramping to 60% at 60C (this is where i hover most of the time), maxes out at 100% at 80C but like I said it will probably crash if you go over 70C on a high overclock. My 1550 profile hits 100% at 70C instead for that reason due to the higher voltage

    S w a t s o n got a reaction from MarvinKMooney in AMD Rumored to be Working on ARM-Based M1 Competitor   
    Hoping AMD isnt trying to do too much at once with this coming after xilinx acquisition. They need to push Radeon hard and keep executing on time with Ryzen.

    S w a t s o n reacted to RejZoR in Try as you might but - new Intel 8-core still behind AMD   
    A bit longer. So Intel will really be desperate and really crank things up to eleven. You know, how they did with Core architecture back in the day that was really revolution compared to garbage Pentiums.

    It’s their IP, maybe they should just play the new smash. The one that doesn’t require illegal practices to use.
