I was using a Sound Blaster AE-5 in my computer, though I recently took it out and put it in my wife's computer instead. I'm currently using the motherboards onboard audio toslink connector to powered nearfield monitors, and they pretty much sound the same. However, I miss the dedicated...

I noticed the same thing with Cyberpunk 2077. The non RT/PT rendering looks terrible because they put almost no effort into making good screenspace reflections. Yeah SS reflections have some rendering bugs and aren't accurate, but done correctly they look great and perform really well. EDIT...

I've been impressed by the number of women playing through Elden Ring on youtube, and kicking ass at it also! Watching Sasha Grey go from getting her ass whopped by basic mobs to soloing DLC bosses has been awesome. I'm sure part of it also is lack of representation in the space. I'm assuming...

I've been pretty terrified of touching the glass on my Alienware AW2725DF (27 inch 360hz QD-OLED 1440p). Every now and then I'll forget and squash a fruit fly on it and have to very carefully clean it. I only ever use water and super soft cloth and do the whole thing, not just the one spot. So...

I had a 3900X 12 core part and there's definitely down sides with multiple CCD's. Some games, like Battleborn Elderborn, ran significantly better with the second CCD disabled completely. I would strongly recommend avoiding Ryzen's with multiple CCD's unless you REALLY need the extra cores for...

I just watched a bunch of videos about this, there's no FPS performance difference in actual games, close enough that run to run variance comes in play. I would be curious about any application that is dependent on memory bandwidth, or even loading times of game levels. Would be curious to see...

Is there a reason that you're running your RAM at only 3200Mhz? The infinity fabric runs at 1800Mhz so 3600Mhz would be sweet spot for RAM, unless it's a crap kit. EDIT: I upgraded my wife's computer from a 5800X to the 5800X3D and most games I play saw a small benefit.

I bought one. 144hz and seems to have a good review on Toms Hardware, punches way above it's price range. https://www.massdrop.com/buy/25642

I just spoke to a client who's trying an XBone directly to his ADSL Modem, in order to do that the xbox needs to be able to do PPPoE. However he can't find any option other than wireless setup. And google and microsoft's support forums have been pretty useless. So for anyone here with an...
