I'm surprised to see that the 6800XT is consistently faster than the 7800XT

Since I have also have an MSI Tomahawk, I thought I better try it out. Unfortunately no change in speed after updating both network driver and chipset drivers. I did use to get a higher upload at a different address, so I guess it's just the nature of the fibre connection being time divided or...

All you needed to do was email Minisforum and ask for help...

That's the price of the 'fully configured' model, with an entire 8GB of RAM and a massive 256GB ssd. No OS though, that'll cost you full retail price for Windows.

It cannot be changed. It's soldered to the motherboard just like in a laptop.

The 6650m has about 90% the performance of an Xbox Series X - which runs AAA titles just fine.

It's easy to assume that they are patent trolls based on the technology, but the evidence in the trial suggests Google may have had good reason to settle. From the linked article: Single statements like that don't prove anything, but they play well to a jury.

Isn't the issue that Alphacool (i.e. you) promoted presales of the fan using results that you knew were impossible? There is no test setup where the results below can be achieved, and yet you told everyone that these results are real.

Seriously - did you read the article you linked? "the MicroLED Industry Association would predict in its report that the consumer TV market won’t see MicroLED models until at least 2030"

Remarkably low endurance of 450 TBW for 2TB drive - perhaps normal for QLC?

Bear in mind that 45dBA at 15cm is 29dBA at 1 metre away for an on-the-floor setup - or 35dBA at 50cm away for an on-the-desk scenario.

I was also keeping an eye out for the Lexar comparison - which seems to have a price performance of twice the Acer GM7 - so perhaps more relevant for the more miserly among us?

An extra $100 for 512GB of storage - why are they like this?!
