    Stack From The Dead: A Ryzen 9950X3D and RTX 5080 in a 20-Year-Old Cooler Master Stacker 830

    It's nice, but the only problem I see is the poor ventilation, which will lead to high temperatures on the video card. I'd suggest you install a thermal sensor/probe on the 16-pin video connector (plus a fan if its temperature exceeds 70 °C).

    RTX 5090 FE Molten 12VHPWR

    This won't help the connector, but it will accelerate the degradation.

    What Is Your Personal Favorite Video Card of All Time?

    The Vega 56 has remained the most memorable to me because it offered “Stage by Stage” overclocking (7), and the HBM2 timings could also be adjusted, so its performance was outstanding for the price.

    AM5 memory controller & memory speeds

    If you own *Shadow of the Tomb Raider*, use the game’s built-in benchmark for both 1:1 and 1:2 speeds, and you’ll be able to decide for yourself which of the two is better. Or you can check out the reviews on TPU—there are many written by ir_cow, but only one of them can give you some...

    Upscaling and Frame Generation Usage Poll

    The main reason for the low FPS and the need for upscaling + FG is called UE5. Apart from UE5, I can't remember another game where I've had to use gimmicks.

    Upscaling and Frame Generation Usage Poll

    Ray Reconstruction “removes” the noise, but at the cost of a very significant drop in FPS—and that's with a 5090... And, of course, RR has to be supported as an in-game effect.

    Upscaling and Frame Generation Usage Poll

    I prefer native/DLAA, but if the FPS isn't high enough (below 160–200), then I enable FG; if that doesn't help, I lower some graphics settings; if that still doesn't help, I enable and DLSS Quality/FSR. But yes, DLSS + FG sometimes cause a lot of artifacts, and to fix the problem, I have to...

    Anyone else less than impressed with PTM7950?

    This! ☝️ The PTM 7950 doesn't offer the best temperatures, but it guarantees years (many more cycles) of consistent temperatures.

    How AI will fail

    When CBDCs and carbon footprints become part of our personal data, the government will need AI to manage and monitor these matters in detail and in a centralized manner; this is one of the reasons the government is investing in and implementing AI in its administration. So, yes, some projects or...

    What Happened to the 9950X3Dv2?

    You can try using DDU to uninstall the NVIDIA driver, reinstall it, and then reinstall the audio driver. If the problem persists, try disabling MPO. Sometimes, increasing or decreasing the FCLK frequency can also help. ** In “Device Manager,” you'll see a device labeled “AMD 3D V-Cache.” Check...

    Is Windows 11 Really Harvesting my data?

    Yes, but there are many others that are also waiting to come true—we just have to wait.

    A Hacker's Arrest Reveals Microsoft Can Track Users Via a Windows Device ID

    Different devices for different things + different browsers for different sites + [guid]::NewGuid() or uuidgen time to time. But, yeah, when you log into Meta or something big like that.. game over for this device. So don't use them or get a device only for that.

    Review the game you finished recently.

    I picked it up just for fun and to kill some time; I liked it—the controls are tricky, and that's one of the cool things about it. A few days ago, I finished “Beyond: Two Souls”—a truly amazing game and story. A little horror and a lot of drama.

    RTX 5090 FE Molten 12VHPWR

    If you look closely, they’ve already forced us to buy 3.0/3.1 PSU blocks for “better” compatibility with 12VHPWR. And I don’t see any reason why they couldn’t do it again... *And when I think about it, the 3000/6000 series had a problem with high peak power levels, and the solution was... a new...
