My only suggestions would be related to cpu cooler, psu and ram.
64gb seems a bit overkill to me, but not sure how much ram your applications would benefit from. You could also always get 32gb now (with 2 sticks) and upgrade later since the mobo has 4 slots as it's a very easy upgrade...
Seeing this new video from Jayztwocents, maybe my guess was right and it was really the drivers that got better:
Just as in the video, my drivers also had 3 years between the last and current Firestrike runs, even though my 2070 was far from being a recent launch at the time or my last run...
Not sure if that is your case, but some PCS laptops/DTRs don't require screws to secure the battery in place, which means that you could carry 2 or 3 batteries and quickly replace when needed. But as @TonyCarter said, if you need lots of battery time, DTRs are not suitable for that (have one...
My Nova is a DTR with an AMD desktop CPU, so we do have (although limited) configurations for clocks and voltages in the BIOS, but using Ryzen Master (or similar, like Zen States) is also possible for a OS-based tweak.
So I did set up 1.025V on the BIOS for the stock clocks (3.9Ghz max boost)...
It's been a long time since we've updated this rank, so I decided to give it a go in 2024 (3 years after my last run) after a recent windows clean install on a new (actually old :p) SSD.
I'm impressed, the results are better than they've ever been at stock, even beating some of my overclocked...
Hi everyone,
It's been a little while since I've posted something new here, but I'd like to have some ideas from you all about a SFF case that I'm starting to build.
I'll start by saying that things have changed a bit compared to 3.5 years ago when I first bought my PCS laptop. At that time...
I'd be more than interested, since I'm starting to build a SFF desktop now and the only parts that I have so far are the AIO and case. So, having fans would be a great addition.
I'm in Ireland, so would be open to paying for shipment, in case I'm the lucky winner.
It would be great if those games worked on a portable device like a phone or a steam deck. Regarding the latter, it might not be straight forward, but being Linux it should definitely be doable to run those old games on a DOS emulator or something :)
Hi all! Came across this website today and it lists 51 classic and indie games that are free on GOG's store. I know you could technically filter free games on the GOG store yourself, but it returns almost 500 games, so it's always nice to have a list of the possible best ones available...
Great choice of daily-driver, @AgentCooper . The DBX would be my missus favourite and def I wouldn't be opposed to driving that. But since we're talking about me.... :)
Car 1 must be your extravagant, money is no object modern vehicle.
Ferrari Roma :love:
Car 2 must be an older or vintage...
Well, to me it just needs 4 things:
1- Room doesn't need to be pretty, but should have an acoustic isolation, so that I can use my mechanical keyboard without bothering the missus :cool: . Doesn't need to be the anechoic chamber, but as silent as possible to the outside world.
2- Which takes...
Hi @ActuallyDenz , is Payday 2 still available? I got a Quest 2 VR headset as a perk from work, so looking for VR games to play for free (which is so hard to find, btw :LOL: )
That is reasonable, in my opinion. Your CPU is quite more powerful than your GPU, so it makes sense to tune it accordingly to your usage. I've done the same with mine, even though I don't have eco mode on my CPU and ended up using manual OC which worked amazing.
Thanks for sharing your results...
It's whatever I can see on the benchmark, which in this case is the max frequency difference compared to the stock run (either yours or someone else's with a similar build).
According to AIDA, it doesn't seem to be any problem with your RAM there, it's reporting a memory bus of 1569 (close to 1600), which then doubles as close to 3200Mhz. Your memory read speeds on the benchmark are also typical of 3200Mhz with high CAS (CL22). Regarding your 3dMark results on the...
