To be fair it appears to be one with "integrated" wifi which does come at a bit of a premium... though whether that price is justified is…

Probably not, stock cooler won't really hinder your performance. Main advantage of aftermarket would be lower noise and aesthetics if you…

Not entirely true, AMD has its equivalent AMF encoder which also has minimal performance impact. Quality admittedly isn't as good as nvenc…

ob dia replied to manity on Intel Arc A750 Graphics Limited Edition + Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 $389 + Delivery ($0 to MEL/Perth & C&C) @ PLE
ARC sees massive gains from ReBar which may or may not be supported by older motherboards depending on the model, so I'd definitely check…

You can get 110 outemu switches from aliexpress for less than $30, I'd say it's not worth for the switches alone. Doesn't seem to be a…

Might be confusing it for the card that was known as 4080 12GB - there was a big controversy since it shared the x80 naming despite being…

I'm still using this board with a 5700X, fine board overall but I imagine you could get a decent B550 for a similar price? Should note that…

5600G is not the equivalent of a 5600, its performance is closer to a 5500

It's at an awkward spot, 24-27inch 144hz+ monitors can often be found for around $200, and I don't feel like a larger screen is really an…
