Damn kids and their new fancy ass PCI and AGP! They don't know anything these days!

AGP is way outdated.

Yeah, there is no listing that says HDMI, 2.0 or not, supports 1080/144hz

It supports 4K 60hz

Do the math, 1080p is the same or less bandwith or whateverthefuck it is

Teacher in 5th grade did this

Her : "why is it not working"

Me "what isnt working?"

Her : " the computer!"

Me "let me see"

She had thought her monitor was Bluetooth

Her "what's wrong with it?"

Me "how do you have the monitor connected"

Her "Bluetooth"

She was using her own laptop for a lesson and she tried connecting her old Dell 4:3 monitor to it through Bluetooth.

Okay to try and help clear this up 

Yes it does support 4k 60hz 

and technically i'm sure you could in some instances "force" it to run 120hz 1080p. 

Its not always supported though.

the Toaster Project has AGP, it has a P4 and a FX5500 in it, works great for NSFU2 at medium 800x600 lol

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

Today I tried to explain to someone how Hot-Mail Works...    ...I've tried to explain everything about it very slowly and easy...  ...but this guy just didn't get it... ...I've gave up after 15 Minutes.

You can take a look at all of the Tech that I own and have owned over the years in my About Me section and on my Profile.

 

I'm Swiss and my Mother language is Swiss German of course, I speak the Aargauer dialect. If you want to watch a great video about Swiss German which explains the language and outlines the Basics, then click here.

 

If I could just play Videogames and consume Cool Content all day long for the rest of my life, then that would be sick.

so he cant find the download for a thing, so he goes of and sources a probably infected and ilegal copy of it from somewhere and complains that windows wont let him infect his computer? and the other one is just a case of a corrupted download, like come on man, you call yourself "an experienced windows user" and you dont know what that is?
