Oh f***ing iPhones have wireless charging with a magnet rebranded as MagSafe now. Ergh. However the rumor is stated as such: 3. The MagSafe charging connector design is restored. Not "iPhone MagSafe Charging coming to Macbook". It's saying the MagSafe Charging is restored, implying return to the Magnet Cu to Cu connection. I might be alright with a wireless charger, however can they dump enough wattage wirelessly to charge a laptop battery properly? Having two Cu surfaces just touching to make contact isn't reliable, you need them

-CPU Intel/AMD -> This basically says any CPU ... -Videocard nVidia/AMD (not Intel) -> Likely says any rendering aspect of the software doesn't play nice with integrated graphics, so get an entry level Nvidia or Ati. -RAM 8+ Gb -> About the only actual requirement. Get 16gb and you'll be fine. -OS Windows 8+ -> As someone pointed this is an old OS ... so this software will run on anything released in the last 8 years. Which considering the leaps and bounds integrated graphics have achieved, will likely invalidate the videocard requirements above.

Oh look guys, 1 person is okay, therefore the millions of other users experiencing problems, overheating and dangerous frayed cables are wrong. Apple has even admitted (so you know it's terrible) the quality issues of their MagSafe chargers. They have class action lawsuits against them for been a terrible dangerous design that overheats. MagSafe design is dangerous, unreliable and overly expensive.

1. The two new models are equipped with about 14-inch and 16-inch displays, respectively. To be expected. 2. In terms of casing design, the new models cancel the curvy design of existing models’ top and bottom parts and adopt a flat-edged form factor design similar to the iPhone 12. Likely easily leaked within the right circles due to third party shell and container designs. 3. The MagSafe charging connector design is restored. After 7 years with Magsafe and 5 charges and one replaced charging port. No thanks, magnetic electronic fl

Will Apples M1 Chips cut off the platform even more?
Amias replied to theereal's topic in General Discussion
x86 got utterly spanked by a vanity fruit company. There is no future for x86 in the commercial mobile market, be that mobile, tablet and, now utterly confirmed, laptop. This in term will starve the desktop market of R&D and investment resulting in x86 dying for commercial desktop PCs. As it should. It is an archaic ageing architecture relying on patch after patch after patch to keep it relevant resulting in a highly inefficient broken platform. If Microsoft was smart they'd be creating an ARM consortium to produce and maintain a competitive standardised desktop ARM -
I've got two monitors, both HDR ready. When I start my PC the monitors flicker black a few times as HDR turns on and off. When I join a game the monitor flickers black while the signal flips. If I'm playing an HDR game on one monitor then hop back to Windows the monitor flicks black while it resets the signal. Then when I transfer back it flicks black again. Why is this not a single toggle option? Why is my GPU and Windows constantly flicking between HDR signals and non-HDR signals causing my monitors to flicker black over and over? While playing some games in HDR is gr

Is PC gaming going to price itself out of relevancy?
Amias replied to Vitamanic's topic in General Discussion
Well the current stock situation doesn't help. The deviation in GPU architecture isn't helping either (RTX vs ATi Ray Tracing). The complexity and difficulty in making new even bigger games (see the gamer meltdown over CP2077) (add in the complexity of all the varied hardware). The influx and continued surge of online hacking with very little innovation to challenge or eliminate. The absolute embarrassment that is Apple stomping on Intel and AMD in the CPU market. PC gaming is about to hit a rough time no doubt. -
Monitor not displaying once boots gets to login screen of Win10
Amias replied to Lexseroth 17's topic in Troubleshooting
I have the opposite problem. My MoBo will not use the discrete GPU for booting, only firing up once Windows is logged in. All happened when I changed screens, the MoBo settings will not save to override and use the discrete graphics, so if I need to get into my BIOS i have to swap to the integrated GPU output everytime. Kind of annoying, but whatever.
