    Borgus Bohr reacted to xFluing in In Games: Capping 2 frames per second under the monitors' Hz or FPS limit. Any benefits? Fact or fiction?   
    I cap my frames 5 below the refresh rate (because frame limiters arent perfect and they can still go 1-2 frames above) so that i am always within freesync range

    For me it helped a lot with microstutters and it just feels a lot smoother.
    Capped in Nvidia control panel at 141fps on a 144hz display.

    Borgus Bohr reacted to SorryBella in Best modern light, fast and solid laptops, optimized for writing?   
    Then in this case anything that has the best built in keyboard for you. This is severely subjective so in this case i would try a bunch of laptops physically. For example i got pretty into Asus chiclets and their scissors so i ended the find with picking up a Vivobook. It was pretty damn good typing experience, and it being portable makes me more productive than on my mechanical keyboard.
     
    And yeah, its pretty obvious that if you just gonna plug in external keyboard everything else is moot point. In this case, find the biggest batteried laptop you can get with low wattage CPU, and then double check on sites like notebookcheck on their load battery life in PCMark.

    It will depend on the low-profile switches, like which type of switch they were made for: look for cherry MX compatible.
     
    However, keep in mind that low-profile keycaps are intended to be used with low-profile switches as well, so they more than likely will never really fit and stick out awkwardly. Haven't tried that myself yet, though.

    Borgus Bohr reacted to AbydosOne in Front case audio jack output average KHz?   
    Generally they're considered worse because the cable running from the motherboard is usually poorly shielded and running past a ton of EMF-generating parts.
     
    0.00002 to 0.02MHz?
  6. Agree
    Borgus Bohr reacted to rippy4500 in Front case audio jack output average KHz?   
    The front jacks are worse since there is signal degradation across the long cable it has to go across.
     
    As for data rate it doesnt really apply since audio is analog. But the sample rate of the audio before digital to analog conversion is usually 44.1khz to 192khz if thats what you're asking.

    Borgus Bohr reacted to Raytsou in Nvidia Image Scaling vs DLSS   
    I suppose a more satisfying answer would be to also explain a bit about anti aliasing, or the problem of representing curves within a grid. I mentioned SSAA and that it's very computationally inefficient. Most of the later methods try to achieve the same effect by trading off accuracy for speed.
     
    Most popular is multisampling anti aliasing, or MSAA. Your GPU will take look at only the parts of your screen where you'll notice a difference (where there are curves) and selectively scale those parts to look better. No discernable difference at all from SSAA but is much faster.
     
    We also have FXAA, which is just as popular. In this method, we have the CPU blur the image outputted by the GPU. Very inaccurate but extremely fast.
     
    We next have TXAA, which instead of rendering at a higher resolution, will look at the few frames leading up to the current frame. Looked okay bit was computationally expensive. Often would be used in conjunction with MSAA.
     
    We then have deep learning super sampling, or DLSS. DLSS 1.0 is pure AI image upscaling. 2.0 conceptually combined 1.0 with TXAA for best accuracy and speed.

    Borgus Bohr reacted to Raytsou in Nvidia Image Scaling vs DLSS   
    Image scaling is traditional scaling, also known as super sampling anti-aliasing (SSAA), which renders the frame at a higher virtual resolution, then fits it to your screen. Nothing will look better than this, but this is very computationally inefficient.
     
    DLSS is AI upscaling with temporal filtering. In other words, it has an algorithm that looks at the current frame, along with the few frames leading up to it, and guesses what a higher resolution version of it might look like.  This is usually not noticeably less accurate but significantly faster.

    Borgus Bohr reacted to BobVonBob in Native Windows Mouse Control vs Thind Party or other Softwares   
    Manufacturer software adjusts the sensitivity of the mouse sensor itself, Windows scales that sensitivity and has a tendency to sneak in mouse acceleration. Manufacturer software all the way.

    Borgus Bohr reacted to unclewebb in Are my clock speeds too low?   
    @Borgus Bohr
    With Intel CPUs, the Effective Clock data that HWiNFO reports is only meaningful when all cores of a CPU are fully 100% loaded. When not fully loaded, you might see MHz numbers reported that are well below the minimum speed that the CPU actually runs at. That appears to be what your screenshot shows.   
     
    When running Windows 11 on an Intel CPU, you have to disable the new Windows 11 virtualization features so monitoring software has direct access to all of the CPU registers. Monitoring timers within the CPU might not be accessible if some of the virtualization features are enabled. I am not sure if this issue also applies to AMD CPUs. 
     
    For Intel, things like Hyper-V, Virtual Machine Platform, Windows Hypervisor Platform, Windows Subsystem for Linux and Android and the Windows Core Isolation - Memory Integrity feature need to be disabled to give monitoring software full access to all of the CPU registers. When monitoring software does not have full access, some of what it reports might be completely wrong or make no sense whatsoever.

    Borgus Bohr reacted to RockSolid1106 in Schedule a Restart per Week   
    Just to get everything to a fresh start. Programs, when you close them, don't always close fully, and sometimes leave traces which will use up resources. This happens with some servers too. They're scheduled to do full restarts when they are not busy, to keep them "fresh".
    It is also a good idea to restart your computer once a week for this reason.

    You never know, they might want to restart it at 2am. They might want to do it when they're away.
    I'd say that's not being lazy, but rather taking advantage of technology.

    Is there a way to schedule an automatic restart of the computer in Windows? Let's say, restart the PC every Sunday at 1 p.m, is that possible?

    If it doesn’t post (nothing on the display/not able to reach bios), the only thing I can think of is either the module is not compatible or it is broken. It could also require a specific bios version to work
