    Scammers Blackmail YouTubers with Copyright Claims

    That's the issue, though. These are NOT DMCA takedowns. This is Youtube's own process that they use in order to avoid having to mess with DMCA issues. If they used the DMCA, there would be penalties for fraudulent takedown notices. But since this is their proprietary system, they get to manage...

    Introducing the NVIDIA TITAN RTX GPU

    I'm a TitanXp owner myself, so I don't have a problem splashing out for a GPU. This is far outside my price range, but for those who would have bought a Quadro but didn't need the FP64 (or the TitanV's HBM), this is an incredible bargain. It's what, a 60% discount on the equivalent Quadro? I can...

    Razer Launches Their Second Phone

    I have the first-gen Razer phone - and I love it. Great battery life, the screen is buttery-smooth, lots of RAM for keeping all my apps open, good customization. The only thing I wish it had was waterproofing and wireless charging, but this isn't a big enough upgrade for me to shell out the...

    Fudzilla: AMD Navi Is No High-End GPU

    I gotta say - my Titan Xp purchase seems better and better. From the rumors I've heard, NVIDIA's next lineup is more in line with a Pascal refresh or Pascal-plus, rather than a full new generational leap. This thing will stay relevant for a long, long while (in computer years, that is).

    Fed Up with GPU Prices? Crypto-Rig Builder Says Gamers Must Suck It Up and Mine

    I've been telling people this for months now. My Titan Xp is about to cost me only $600 net, after which I stop mining with it and let it enjoy the easy, gaming life. Titan Xp for the same cost as an AIB Vega 64 (retail)? Sign me up!

    Best air cooler currently available for Ryzen?

    I am currently using a Thermalright Le Grand Macho RT (the one with the included fan) to cool down my Ryzen 7-1700 oc'd to 3.8ghz. It keeps the processor exceptionally cool (71c during Prime95 SmallFFT) while making almost no noise at all. It's the quietest HSF I've ever used. Easily available...

    Ryzen Owners Thread

    Thanks for the super helpful replies, friends. Asrock released a new BIOS for my MB this morning (2.1). It seems to have lowered temperatures across the board by around 4-5c. It also made 3.6ghz stable at stock voltages. Prime95 Small FFT is now levels out at 74c. Blend is 69c. Gaming looks...

    Ryzen Owners Thread

    I've been using HWInfo for temps, and it always agrees with Ryzen Master (old and new - the 1700 doesn't have the 20c temperature offset). So 75c and under is safe, 95c is definitely un-safe. Between 75 and 95 is.... bad? Will it degrade the CPU if I run it up there in that zone? One reason why...

    Ryzen Owners Thread

    Hi, friends! I'm loving my new R7-1700. It's sporting EVGA SuperSC DDR4-3200 (running at 2933 CL16) on the Asrock Fatal1ty X370 Gaming K4. Wraith Spire is pretty with its RGB glow doing its thing. Question - does anyone have real info about safe temperatures for these things? I can get 3500mhz...

    Deus Ex: Mankind Divided DX12 Performance Review @ [H]

    Deus Ex: Mankind Divided DX12 Performance Review @ [H]

    I think I have a system that fits that description. FX-8350 (non-OC) with a Radeon Fury (mild OC) on a QHD, non-freesync monitor. Just to try it out real quick - and I recognize this is not a full or scientific test at all - I parked myself in Prague with most settings on High. Not a whole lot...

    7 Reasons PC Gaming Is Not Too Hard

    How about manually pushing in DRAM chips into the sockets in order to go from 512k to 640k of RAM (which should be enough for anybody, really). I still have my DRAM chip extractors around here somewhere.... They came in handy when I upgraded my Advanced Gravis UltraSound to its maximum memory...

    Needing more Voltage for stable stock clocks

    It NEVER crashes. Most stable build I've ever done. Oh well, I guess this will remain mysterious until I upgrade the entire platform late next year.

    Needing more Voltage for stable stock clocks

    Just curious - how long did you keep the 2500k while it would fail in Prime95 before upgrading to your 4790k rig?

    Needing more Voltage for stable stock clocks

    Quick update: I tried replacing the power supply (with a Corsair AX860i, just to be on the safe side) - issue persists. I don't know how to test the 12v rail while the machine is on. I'll research it a bit and give it a try. I'm still confused as to why it will only work when the voltage is...
