    @Aleamapper Great video, loved it. And then I went to the Freemason Secrets one, which was.. also quite interesting since I knew nothing about them.

    New and upcoming case releases

    @grommit! Makes a lot of sense for a case that one buys for looks. I have the XL and I absolutely love it, but mine's mesh because I don't care to show off anything inside, I just like the case to look nice in my office. I think those back-connectors make good sense, a nice trend.

    SSD Fetish

    @Ardax It's a lot like after upgrading all your stuff and being amazed at how fast everything is, to getting used to it. I have this terrible relationship with my work laptop. It's now almost 3 years old (so it'll be replaced soon) and I have to do my work on that for security reasons. But after...

    5700X3D upgrade?

    Did -25 on 9800X3D for shits and giggles and lost ~9C temp and no crashes so far. Pretty awesome when P95 can't push it beyond 78C on a 280 AIO. I like it.

    The Zen Thread

    @sakete If you don't play much anymore, an X3D would probably add extra cost with little benefit. a 9700x would probably do you well. On the power consumption front, I'm very happy with what I see on the 9800X3D and the 9700X may even do better (look at reviews!)

    The Zen Thread

    Depending on the game, you may be correct. I actually went from a 5950X to a 9800X3D. I realize you may instead be looking at a 9950X or wait for 9950X3D, since you mention more power/heat. But I want to lay this out to you: One of the reasons for my upgrade is better 1% frame rates on 4K...

    What happened today that you liked?

    My wife is on business travel to Orlando FL. Since she's already there, and work pays for her flight, so we figured to have me and my 6yo daughter fly down and take her to Disney tomorrow. All she knows is we are "surprising Mommy" in her hotel, but then we're migrating to a Disney hotel for 3...

    The Direct Executive Pen: Trump 2025

    That countdown is at 100, decrementing by 1 every year. Lots of immigrants hate the ones coming on later, even of the same origin. The ladder pull is not an American thing.

    A thread about parenting

    I did look as they walked me to the checkup area of my daughter. "Don't look." I regret not taking the advice. I'm not afraid to say I am squeamish around that sort of thing. But NOOOOOO I had to look.

    For their target audience, that is the way to go. Any of those tech tubers recommending Jedec would get shredded to bits and lose audience.

    @hobold Indeed someone has, here's a very good review of x3d memory scaling compared to non-x3d and an intel chip: View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XW2rubC5oCY tl;dr: Generally not worth it, only if you're chasing that last frame and are on 1080p.

    The Diablo IV thread

    Some things about the game are just ULTRA frustrating, like nobody put any thought into it. In the undercity, with a ROTA group, you specify what you're gonna do. Refinement, whatever... but there's a good number of assholes going into the ROTA who don't have those, pop another cheap one, then...

    Anyone have use for this? I don't want anything for it, I have more gold than I can spend, and it'd be a shame for this to just rot in my stash. Hit me up in game/bnet hansmuff#1829

    I did the same thing, that memory was on the QVL. But nevertheless, the 1.35V it was fed by default was not enough, I had to set it to 1.4 manually.

    I had odd memory issues on a X570 board when using XMP (the memory didn't have EXPO) and I had to dial in 1.4V on VDIMM manually, never had problems again. This was for DDR4 at 3600MHz. If XMP carried the voltage setting, it wasn't applied (as diagnostic tools showed.)

    The Direct Executive Pen: Trump 2025

    I can answer that, having worked on fare equipment for major train/bus networks. The SBA is still accepted, coin acceptors (the hardware in a vending machine that accepts and stores coins) always had their profile and there's no good reason to just delete it.

    When your goal is destruction, you don't care about any backups. Matter of fact, you'll want those gone as well.

    Season 7 is my favorite so far. There are no resource lock-ins yet (P 208) where you must grind like crazy to get ahead. Gold isn't even any sort of issue, which.. is good but also weird. STILL... I have had fun this season and will play some more. This is also the first season where I get...

    @Cruzmisl If you have Hynix chips, bullzoid's timings give you a good 5% benchmark boost, but in my usage less overall performance. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlYxmRcdLVw I can run my DDR5 6000 CL30 at his timings without a sweat. Means nothing to another configuration but it...
