    I knew they were poor with driver support but this takes the cake.

    Opinion: Could Broadcom buy Intel

    Wouldn't that foul up the snarled mess of licensing agreements?

    Subscription Growth Has Flattened claims games industry analyst

    There are screens for rejecting a lot of ambient light but you do still need to control the room somewhat.

    Subscription Growth Has Flattened claims games industry analyst

    I don't want to burn hours on the lamp for it but turn based strategy would be a tempting target if I did :D.

    Windows 11 24H2 will enable BitLocker encryption for everyone - happens on both clean installs and reinstalls

    Nobody needs to opt to turn things on, only off :rolleyes:.

    Thanks for the updates. More reason to continue avoiding QLC like the plague.

    Two years after launch Windows 11 adoption is still waaaay behind Windows 10

    I'd be annoyed if my tools were constantly reconfigured and potentially broke themselves as a result.

    What Mouse and Keyboard Are You Using Right Now?

    The arrows threw me off for a little while with my 75+ (same placement as 96). Frequent use and maybe some extra time practicing and I think anyone can adjust quickly. Probably best to stay away from a full keyboard while adjusting though.

    Schiit Audio Moving Sale - Ragnarok 2 amp for $999

    I have no problems with EQ when applied correctly. Or as long as the person doesn't think everyone else will want to hear whatever EQ they have setup.

    Windows 11 Market Share Keeps Declining

    What is upgraded in W11 compared to 10 for the average user?

    Copilot or else! (for OEMs...eventually)

    It can be disabled, allegedly. Sounds like MS left themselves plenty of wiggle room on however "much" data they collect when the process is running.

    Copilot or else! (for OEMs...eventually)

    Have a default or recommended baseline setup and let users flip things on or off and everyone (or close enough) would be content. The majority seem to find the "convenience" of having updates, features, or whatever else forced upon them to be preferable.

    Radeon 7700xt for $380

    Tempting. I can't imagine why anyone would bother with the 7600XT, even with the discount, though.

    Ubisoft's The Crew is shutting down 31st March 2024 and will be unplayable after that because it is online only.

    Lame open world Ubisoft puke, Star Wars edition? It was clear where DLC was going. Get less, pay more, listen to the publishers cry about their unsustainable business practices.

    Best CPU upgrade options?

    I'd say Corsair 5000 or 7000, or Fractal since you mentioned multiple drives. I'd lean toward the 7000 or the Fractal, maybe the Thermaltake, out of what you listed.

    What Mouse and Keyboard Are You Using Right Now?

    I hear it's one of the friendlier (in terms of gameplay/unlocking stuff) gacha but I haven't played it and won't touch the genre. Nice. I've been thinking about picking up a newer Naga after confirming I could run the SW offline as needed. I wouldn't mind giving Razer's keypads a try, and...

    Would you ever go back to LCD after experiencing OLED?

    How's the glow and black uniformity on them?

    Best CPU upgrade options?

    I'd suggest checking Microcenter for open box parts if you aren't buying a bundle. They won't beat the best deals you might find here or another forum but they're usually well priced.

    Best CPU upgrade options?

    AMD would be my choice in that scenario. I'd wait to see what's announced later in the year if I had your current HW though.

    Trust Newegg reviews for NVMe SSD? - lower cost or "big name" like Samsung?

    The savings have never been enough for me to consider it. Last SSD purchase I made it was something like $5 - $10 more for the drive I bought versus a DRAMless one.

    Best CPU upgrade options?

    Here's a list of AM5 boards if you're interested: Price depends mostly on what features or IO you want out of the board. I think 850W should be fine unless you've got a lot of power draw elsewhere.

    Trust Newegg reviews for NVMe SSD? - lower cost or "big name" like Samsung?

    TPU has an SSD database which I find helpful: https://www.techpowerup.com/ssd-specs/ It's been mentioned above but, definitely avoid QLC and DRAMless. I check prices on the capacity/type and then determine which (if any) aren't QLC/DRAMless. From there I check reviews/benchmarks.

    Computer wont boot. Colored line glitches on boot logo. Logo stays forever. If it boots then Blue Screen after booting. Post boot freeze up.

    Have you checked if you can get into the BIOS without any HDDs or SSDs connected?

    Global sales of XBox are so bad developers wonder if supporting the console is worth it for them

    I could accept a fee knowing I was connecting to a dedicated server (probably wouldn't be willing to pay but I wouldn't feel insulted by it). Paying to play a game that connects directly/P2P is unacceptable to me.

    Computer wont boot. Colored line glitches on boot logo. Logo stays forever. If it boots then Blue Screen after booting. Post boot freeze up.

    Something to consider after you determine whether or not your RAM is faulty as suggested above. If you're resuming with moderate frequency and there's not a good chance of power loss why not try a sleep mode instead of hibernation?

    Computer wont boot. Colored line glitches on boot logo. Logo stays forever. If it boots then Blue Screen after booting. Post boot freeze up.

    Do you have a discrete video card you could check with? A small slot powered card would be ideal. Have you checked the other outputs on the board to see if they exhibit the same problem?

    Linux market share passes 4% for first time

    I get output at POST but, I did try that. It refused to run correctly. Tried it again, same issue, it hangs or endlessly refreshes itself and all I can do is kill the process. Edit: Going to head off for now. I'll make a dedicated thread for it tomorrow if I remember. Thanks for the feedback...

    Linux market share passes 4% for first time

    X670E Taichi, 7700X, GTX 1080ti. Booting I sit with nothing for a few seconds then "_" and then the Asrock screen. Not sure on specific drivers, I tried with current stable Void, Slack, and Fedora. The monitor reports 2560x1440@60hz in the OSD. Edit: I could try disabling the iGPU in the BIOS...

    Linux market share passes 4% for first time

    In my case the screen stops updating, displays nothing, or gives me garbled junk. Another monitor works without issue over DP and another worked alright with HDMI. I'm tempted to check if my iGPU would work but it would be however much to buy a cable I wouldn't use after that.

    Would you buy a vid card for F model CPU?

    I'd look around for a good deal on a used card. If I were buying new I'd probably go for the Asrock's A580 at $165 (US).

    Linux market share passes 4% for first time

    I was going to run it as a primary OS but I'm stuck on W10 until I can figure out my video issues. All HW is working but I can't get DP to output to my main monitor (XB270HU) once it switches video modes from VGA. I'm curious if maybe AMD cards would work, aside from the lack of G-Sync support...
