    What's your latest tech purchase?

    I can't say I care enough to verify more than what disk manager shows me, but a quick search I found a reddit topic about the same drive that another person purchased off Target. Sounds like the same 16GB Memorex flash drive, but shows 28GB when they use it. Seems I'm not the only one that's...

    What's your latest tech purchase?

    Needed a flash drive larger than 4GB to hold all the CDs my wife had, she wanted them digital to play in her car. Stopped at target, spent $7 on a 16GB flash drive, got home, plugged it in and found out that it's actually 32GB. Not that she needs that much storage room, but I guess a nice...

    be quiet! Customer Service - so far is absolutely awesome.

    I've recently seen that ASUS was having a heck of a time with publicity with their handheld warranty issue, so I figured I'd post here to let people know of my past and current customer service experience with be quiet! My first time contacting be quiet! was about the Pure Slim Rock 2 cooler...

    20 Years?

    Looks like I am 1 day away from me joining TPU 15 years ago. Never paid much attention to my join date. I've been around a while, I just don't post much. Hopefully things keep going well for TPU and it's around for another 20 years. I do enjoy the work W1zzard and his staff does because it...

    NVIDIA Blackwell GB200 Superchip to Cost up to 70,000 US Dollars

    Not missing the point at all. We've had a lot of this stuff for a while now, it just now works better with the newer hardware. The LLM are just search engines designed to mimic speech. Programs that were able to spit out drawings are just able to do it better now. Software to deep fake has been...

    NVIDIA Blackwell GB200 Superchip to Cost up to 70,000 US Dollars

    When "AI" actually becomes AI, I'll be impressed. Until then, well, these companies can spend what they want on these things to help them get there....I guess. I just think it's impressive that these chips cost as much as a decently priced new car and these companies are buying up millions...

    Majority of 4K Gamers Have 16GB or Higher Video Memory: TechPowerUp Poll

    I don't hop on the front page very often and when I do I forget about the poll because it's just a small box off to the side. Interesting gathering of data. I don't play at 4k and my GPU has 12GB. 1440p is an awesome spot for gaming for me. Less issues getting games to hit 120fps and I don't...

    2024 and STILL no dark mode?

    True. Can't help those that won't help themselves.

    2024 and STILL no dark mode?

    I'm not obtrusive, I'm blunt. I told you how to resolve it, you don't seem to want to because (inset your reasoning here). And that's fine. But you always have a choice. I use Dark Reader with chrome on TPU. It's the only site I have it work with (granted I don't visit many sites) and I have no...

    2024 and STILL no dark mode?

    Always a choice. Use an extension or not, you are capable of resolving the matter on your own.

    2024 and STILL no dark mode?

    Use dark reader extension. Bam! Done.

    I don't think Ryzen 9900x3d is just being announced next month, I think it's launching next month.

    What do I think? I think I'm still bummed out that they didn't produce any 5900X3D. I would have gotten one. But that's neither here nor there. I like watching the advancement AMD has been doing and as much as I'd like to always get new hardware (who doesn't?) I'm content with the 5900X I'm...

    Graphics card running at 8x 4.0 not 16x 4.0

    I was wondering the same thing, why the OP is asking why the card isn't running at x16 for a RTX 3050 when the 3050 only runs at x8. The GPUZ pic shows the card is operating on "PCIe 16 4.0 @ x8". That is exactly how that card is supposed to run.

    Does anyone here overclock their video cards? Is it really worth it?

    I haven't seen a GPU since the Maxwell days that really gave much of an improvement over what they provided out of the box. My 980Ti I could crank up the memory speed by almost 500 while pushing the core up 250. I surpassed GTX 1070 performance with my 980Ti. I can't get anywhere close to that...
