    How to debrick a Z2 Mini workstation: Is HP software required for display?

    Do you guys have any ideas about reliably restoring a display signal in a workstation that constantly wants to lose it? I unboxed a new Z2 Mini G1a and was shocked by the bloatware. So I did a clean installation of Windows 11. Actually, I did multiple after noticing that each Windows...

    Uncertified Displayport cables, why is this still a thing?

    I was watching Linus and Luke bitch about HDMI blocking AMD's linux driver today and they started talking about how much better Dispayport was as a standard, except that they are always having issues with screens blanking or not recognising on the first connection.

    Cannot get picture from iGPU in Windows with drivers installed

    Hi! Early this year I used my PC problem free via the integrated GPU of my Ryzen 7600X, but today, there is a major issue. I just sent my dedicated GPU to warranty service and after some troubleshooting I did with it, I had a dated Adrenaline driver version installed. I plugged my monitor to the...

    GTX 1080 outputs only on one port, any tips how to solve this?

    After using my 1080 for two weeks (Gigabyte G1 Gaming), yesterday after a bootup I noticed that the card only sends out signal on one of the display ports (it has 3 DP, 1 HDMI).

    Is it wise to wait for DP 1.3/HDMI 2.0 monitors?

    I've been wanting to upgrade to a new monitor for a few months now. I'm pretty much ready to jump on the LG 29UM58 ultrawide as the price is right, I won't be able to use the higher 29um68's freesync cos I use Nvidia cards and the 34" versions at 1080p seem like a bad, blurry choice. That...
