    From what I’m seeing the musicals really carry the game :laugh:

    Logitech Introduces MX Brio, Its Most Advanced Webcam Designed for the Evolving Ways of Working and Streaming

    The mini-review and PR blurb both don’t mention it, and the hardware on the cam doesn’t look like it has it vs my 2017 Brio 4k which does. It would be weird for them not to mention it in a business focused PR bit too. I’d bet it doesn’t.

    Which Monitor ? Poll

    Without knowing the exact use case of the monitor it's a little harder to say, but I'd go with the UW if it's shooters or racing games or the cheaper flat 16:9 for anything else. The cost for 165hz isn't worth it. I'm running a 27" 170hz IPS 2560x1440 and a 34" 100hz VA 3440x1440. I notice the...

    Intel Expands 14th Gen Core Desktop Processor Series with 65W Mainstream Models

    I can’t prove this because I haven’t seen anyone test this, but isn’t it most likely that the 14900k and 14900non-k draw a similar amount of power? There’s no way a single core draws over 65W, so you don’t need to increase the efficiency of the part to maintain single-threaded clocks.

    Intel Expands 14th Gen Core Desktop Processor Series with 65W Mainstream Models

    As further support for this argument, here’s a power-limited 13900k, which is basically a 13900, which is basically a 14900. It is losing over 20% performance going from ~250w to ~65w. That 20% may be worth losing for a 75% power reduction but I wouldn’t call it ‘near top tier performance’...

    Intel Expands 14th Gen Core Desktop Processor Series with 65W Mainstream Models

    Have you lost it? It’s already rated for 225w without an overclock. It will never see 5.0 sustained all-core because to do that would take those 225w constantly, which is exactly what you don’t want. It’s going to lose massive amounts of all core performance in sustained loads. mahirzukic is...

    HYTE Releases its First All-in-One Liquid Cooler THICC Q60

    $300 is kinda shocking, but otherwise seems solid. Aesthetics first is getting more and more common now, at least this one doesn’t look like it left performance too far behind.

    Intel Expands 14th Gen Core Desktop Processor Series with 65W Mainstream Models

    I assume once the turbo expires you’re dropping further down to 4Ghz rather than 6.0. The base frequency is even 2.0Ghz.

    Technical Issues - TPU Main Site & Forum (2023)

    (I know it's 2024 :laugh:) I'm not quite able to get multi-quote to work on mobile or desktop. I click +Quote and it shows all messages in the dialogue when I click "Add Quotes", but then only the last message I quoted appears. To multiquote I have to select the text and click the 'reply' that...

    NVIDIA Announces the GeForce RTX 40 SUPER Series Graphics Cards

    I’d be willing to bet the upcoming 5K2K 240hz OLEDs from LG will have it, and that’s the screen I’d like to use with a GPU upgrade.

    HP OMEN Transcend OLED Monitor Detailed Ahead of CES 2024

    I know JOLED was working on one, but TCL and another Chinese brand are too. If they bought the tech or are working on their own I'm not sure. And in a dark room, QDOLED static contrast is still infinite. I know in practice it isn't quite, but it's not an inherent limit of the tech.
