    Monitors Recommendations needed for an OLED monitor with 2K resolution

    Monitors will likely be not as impressive, they aren't as bright. That's what i have heard. Still great for someone used to ips. I use them in dark room, so i try to reduce paper white to ~120 nits and hopefully that should increase peak brightness a bit.

    News Samsung Odyssey Glassless-3D monitor available for purchase

    Its expensive now, but i hope this time 3d makes it and gets into mainstream gaming monitors. It seems like an obvious thing for gaming. VR is another level above that, but maybe is less convenient.

    Monitors Recommendations needed for an OLED monitor with 2K resolution

    I have aw32 and love it. When i bought dell was the only option. Note - 1) Dell basically stopped giving out firmware updates. Look up reddit and check last firmware date in official site. For an expensive product, that seems wrong, esp since competition do give out updates. 2) Dell has this...

    help needed for pricing pc components for resale

    Why do you have 2 when you dont game ? In that case just keep the one that is in best condition and sell the other. If similar then sell 6600xt, loss is meaningless here, its more of an emotional response. If you have integrated graphics on your cpu then try to run pc without gpu. If it works...

    help needed for pricing pc components for resale

    Why did you think that selling 6600xt and buying 6600 would make any sense. At best you could buy a used 6600 and get some small money while potentially swapping with a card that has been used a lot more. If you really dont need gpu and have integrated gfx, then ok. Else no point. No one will...

    CPU/Mobo New MB shows damage - what are my options?

    Try to see if they will allow return. Worst case - motherboard is still functional right ? Take it as a lesson, atleast its working and enjoy your new build. Hopefully, you will never need to rma.

    CPU/Mobo New MB shows damage - what are my options?

    If you get DOA or damaged item, seller has to replace it, so Computechstore. Usually they have a few days limit after which they wont. Usually 3-7 days. Check their terms. They might also need unboxing video as proof.

    31-40k I am in Dilemma! Should I upgrade my Present PC to AMD AM4 or AM5 or Intel LGA 1700 chipsets? Budget is limited to 40k

    If you want, you can save 1k by going for this ram instead if you are ok with manually entering some values in bios. I use it, and it works great. Even worst case it has a secondary profile of 6000 c36, but i run it fine at 6000 c30 with tighter timings from buildzoid. That said, not sure about...

    CPU/Mobo New MB shows damage - what are my options?

    I think you should try to get it replaced by seller, and quickly before their return window closes. CID - Customer Induced damage. Any physical damage gives these companies a way out, even if its not causing an issue.

    CPU/Mobo New MB shows damage - what are my options?

    Warranty guys will probably reject this board citing CID, would be very convenient for them. So if you can, perhaps best to get this replaced now.

    AI-Powered Attacks Threaten Gmail, Outlook, and Apple Mail Security

    i scanned it a bit, only thing i could see were personalized phishing attacks. Just open gmail from bookmarks only. Dont go clicking on links. Also - these articles themselves seemed to be ai created, lots of words but saying very little. Clickbait more like.

    41-50k Noob pc builder Any help?

    Not needed even after couple of years. I am using deepcool paste that came with coolers. Done it twice in 2 builds. cpu temps remain fine (idle/load), so never bothered again. Applying paste every couple of months is mental imo. something is wrong : paste/cooler/pressure/something else. Dunno...

    News NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Is 2x Faster Than 4080 At $999, RTX 5070 Ti 2x Faster Than 4070 Ti At $769, RTX 5070 Faster Than 4090 For $549

    yes nothing, but hopefully we get new gen next year on new node. 30% faster than 9070xt would land around 4090, which seems like a worthwhile upgrade from 3080 if priced ok. Best case scenario for gaming gpu is that demand for TSMC reduces or intel/others become competitive and have capacity...

    Your Gaming Backlog/Progress Report!

    Finished Guardians of Galaxy. Very fun game, good motion capture too and some nice graphics. There are issues on pc, fov low / aiming not precise. Usually i hate stuff like this, but it was alright in the end. Combat is not precise but chaotic - good fun. Loads and loads of dialogue. Definitely...

    News NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Is 2x Faster Than 4080 At $999, RTX 5070 Ti 2x Faster Than 4070 Ti At $769, RTX 5070 Faster Than 4090 For $549

    3070 and below to 9070xt is a nice jump at msrp if it ever gets there here. Nvidia yeah - prices are insane, they dont have interest in supplying as AI gives better margin. Perhaps they might even exit if AI demand is proven to be durable, who knows. Even if price was right they are broken for...

    Pls suggest BLDC Fan?

    In my case - There is a cone shaped thing above the fan which sometimes can fall down and starting touch the running fan. That lead to noise. Has happened twice, but not since quite some time. Simple fix was to just raise it again.
