Yeah well you might not need to ever replace it. But there's more and more reports of it happening is all. I definitely wouldn't do it if…

It means your warranty is void. But more to the point - the hotspot hitting 110c with the fans going 100% is "acceptable" because the GPU…

I have an ASUS TUF 4080 and on one of the screws I had to remove was a small sticker covering it that I assume voids warranty once removed…

for anyone thinking abotu using the Kryosheet please pay attention to this line: Attention: Electrically conductive! Follow instructions!

I *think* MSI use PTM7950 but all other 3rd party AIBs use paste. I could be wrong on this info though so do your own research.…

I say go for it, even if the 50xx series does come out before end of year it'll only be the 5080 & 5090, and I don't think you'll see the…

You get what you pay for with monitors and $300 isn't much. Main aspects are: resolution, picture (panel) quality and refresh rate. I…

I've repasted my ASUS TUF 4080 twice now. After owning the card for 11 months I was seeing a delta of 30c+ at max load (310-320w hitting…

Yep it'll do it out of the box and it might get better the more you use it. It's luck of the draw though, some of them have it while others…

Coil whine is due to the electricity moving through all the transistors / components. The more power it's drawing the louder it will be,…

Oh ok, I've had mine for almost 2 years and no sign on burn in. But that would apply to any OLED panel - at least Dell's comes with a 3…

Lots of great deals in the Steam Summer Sale - this one's a banger!

Like the AW3423DWF? Bit cheaper too atm - $1,259…

Maybe try a different M.2 slot? or removing it and installing windows on your HDD (you could just partition a small segment if you don't…

Yeah I read that - but have you checked that it's not a faulty one?

Have you tested that SSD? If you have another one I'd try replacing it and do a fresh windows install on the new SSD and see how you go

You'll want to avoid doing this if possible. Bluetooth adds latency, which you might get used to and is arguably fine. But you'll…

It does but it's no where near the quality of nvidia's frame gen. Kinda like comparing the early versions of FSR to DLSS. Also it's not…

They just invested USD$68.7 billion in acquiring ABK. I don't think they're planning to "drop out" anytime soon.

What refresh rate is that monitor? I'd personally go the 4070ti super so you can frame gen it past 120fps (assuming your monitor can do…

I'd go to a 4080 Super if you're coming from a 3080. Although if you've waited this long you should probably just hold out for the 5080.

100%. I wouldn’t upgrade from a 3080 to this but if it’s a choice between then two then this would win.

DP to HDMI adapters are $4 on eBay

I don't think $1000 is lowball - you could get a brand new 4070S machine on AM5 platform & DDR5 that would perform very similarly to this…

No chance mate - you're listing those prices as if they're new. This is a 3 year old system with used components. The CPU is currently $346…

How long do you want to wait seems like the more appropriate question.

Why on earth did you not have 2FA set up? 2FA *everything* unless it's just a spam website you don't care about.

You don't want a valve dock - the 3rd party options are much, much better.…

I usually get around 65MB/sec (yes, megabytes) on my 1gbps fibre connection

It’s $448 everywhere https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/qnGhP6/pny-verto-geforce-rtx-4060-8-gb-video-card-vcg40608dfxpb1 And here’s a…
