There's not much info out there. The best one I can find is from this Chinese video. The card in the video has been tempered by user with 1mm pads on VRAM and has hotspot issues. The host guesses that the stock thermal pads for the VRAM and VRM are 0.75mm and 1mm respectively. He uses new 1mm...

Out of the options my general gaming usage pick would be either Arc B580 (because it's the cheapest card that is most unlikely to run into VRAM trouble, and I'm damn sure I will run into VRAM trouble on my general usage) or 9060XT 16GB. In reality on this side of the world 5060Ti 16GB is marked...

Considering OP's phone held up well for 4yrs other than storage, I guess the phone in question is 12/13. If OP has interest in Pro features than sure enough, but the actual features I can think of on the 16Pro over a "normal" 16 are better camera, 120Hz display, and options for 1TB storage. I'm...

Two different monitor lights, one is a joke purchase and one is an expensive, serious purchase, led from this news article. No prize for guessing which is the joke. Jokes aside...no really. I expected the joke product to be a less expensive yet useful one, but somehow... the ROG branded...

He has shown enough in his video to convince some that is not snake oil, but I don't have much more to show in English. And he is a monitor reviewer with some esports background. He did some serious tests with expensive equipment in a bit different way than, say, RTINGS and Monitors Unboxed, to...

Extremely serious esports players I guess. During my research in my OLED purchase decision, I found a Chinese guy in Chiphell and bilibili who (in summary, IIRC) have used a few 360Hz OLEDs in high level FPS games and found something off for him. (unrelated to resolution, and more likely...

This thing is already launched in southeast Asia back in Jan 2025. Here's some unboxing articles in Chinese: https://forum.gamer.com.tw/C.php?bsn=60030&snA=659718 https://www.mobile01.com/topicdetail.php?f=116&t=7075074 This is a very premium product in the category though.

Don't worry about Freesync Premium, it will be fine. Worse performance due to driver isn't likely, but you may want to think about driver support timeframe or worse performance due to temps. And how/if the warranty works after a repaste.

I know OP plays Forza Motorsport 8, so 8GB cards are almost instantly out of the question. (Early builds of) FM8 will not do well with high texture and 8GB VRAMs (EDIT: at 1080p) even with everything else set to low, and medium texture doesn't look good to say the least. There is a part of me...

I have looked at your previous posts. If I'm going by this page, and then estimate the price/perf ratio, 6700XT is the pick. But... a) VRAM issues are not taken into account. b) RT performance and other features are not taken into account. I'm not into NVIDIA features but they are easily...

Assume USD$250 is still the budget...I know I will definitely run into VRAM limit so 6700XT would be my pick, but... If you're like me, you know / are extremely worried you will be hit by 8GB VRAM limit then 6700XT will get away with more things just because VRAM. Erm, or maybe 3060 12GB if...

I changed from a Creative Katana V2X (with a narrow but tall sub) to a Creative Pebble X Plus (with a smaller square sub). They both sounds…good enough for a normie ear, but they both go low as 50Hz, not 20Hz. I don’t like prolonged headphone use just because. My brother just changed to an...

I'm personally not okay with 8GB even at 1080p (maybe it's because I refuse to drop below high settings). But this is more of an attempt to steer away from that kind of discussion, because it's clear that OP is in a tight budget and I'm tired with that kind of threads (even though they helped...

Look, if you need all these boxes ticked: newest gen, NVIDIA, cheap, right now, then 5060 is the choice. Driver support timeframe is something I don't care that much, but is a fair point to sway towards NVIDIA. The problem of buying 5060 is... - If you can wait a bit and can accept AMD cards...

Brown mouse is too much lol...wish there is a black one for this, Noctua or not.
