Cooler Master Makes Gaming PCs Now?

Brands are constantly sending us new products to review. But how do we know they’re not hand-picking what they send us? The only way to be sure is to compare what they send with the same products bought at retail.

All I think of when I hear cooler master is the HYPER 212 EVO. That thing is forever burned into my brain.

I believe the reason CSGO had an average of 293 from Coolermaster's benchmark tests is that Source games are capped at 300 FPS on default. They must've not noticed that while benchmarking

not at all! The fact that the keyboard lasted that long is testament to the fact that its worth something, maybe they didn't focus on short term comforts and instead designed it more towards longevity. Short term comforts means nothing if you don't get what you paid for in longevity.

The CSM issue Linus mentions at 5:00 sounds like the Nvidia DisplayPort firmware issue. Since the GPU is an RTX 3060 it would require this firmware update: https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5233/~/nvidia-gpu-firmware-update-tool-for-displayid to resolve the issue so you can use DisplayPort without needing to use CSM.

 

I encountered this issue about a year ago when I bought a new monitor and could no longer access my BIOS while using DisplayPort unless I enabled CSM or used a different connection. I even made a PSA about it over on the Nvidia subreddit.

 

The tl;dr is if you have a Titan (Maxwell or Pascal), 10 Series or older GPU then you need to apply this firmware update: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/nv-uefi-update-x64/

 

For RTX 30 Series you need this update: https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5233/

 

And lastly for the RTX 4080 or 4090 you need this update: https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5411/

 

I hope this helps.

i am guessing you can only buy it from amazone?  i mean if i look at the import costs i am still beter off buying the parts separate.
but ill think about it cause I was looking for a oké PC for my sister.

WAN Show is going to be extremely late this week, because they're going to do it live from LTX.

In Cooler Masters "poster" they said that the 3060 got 293, although while Linus is using a 2060, he said that the FPS he got was 430~ FPS, am I missing something here?
