    Ryzen users, safe to upgrade windows 11?

    Would indeed prefer MS aiming for boring look, instead of current fashion garbage, which just tries to force itself in the way and makes things harder/more complex. And 11 isn't really different from 10 in that. Ever after Windows 7 it's been plain Wintoys with every forward step followed by...

    PSU Expert Aris Mpitziopoulos Responds to Gigabyte Statement on GP-P750/850 GM Design Flaws

    And those big salary decision makers claiming "responsibility" as justification for their salary hardly ever seem to actually carry any responsibility. It's really almost like amount of salary is inversely proportional to amount of responsibility/how hard personal consequencies will be from bad...

    PSU Expert Aris Mpitziopoulos Responds to Gigabyte Statement on GP-P750/850 GM Design Flaws

    That "Nothing changed here, no re-validation required" isn't entirely exclusive to China problem and can happen also where strict testing of changes would be expected. Like how maker of AMRAAM's rocket motor changed propellant formula and didn't test that it still works in high altitude flight...

    Windows 11 General Discussion

    That's the Windows development process of the last decade... Force out various BS hardly anyone except fan club wants and discard any critic and use paying consumers as alpha testers. While I used to swear at Gates I now miss the times he was at helm of Microsoft. At least in that time Windows...

    Resident Evil Village PC version crack appears to fix performance issues

    Peeing on buyers is standard practise of the "content" industry. Don't you remember all those "warnings" etc in VHS movies and then same but without skipping chance in DVDs?

    Best ways to make Win10 look like Win7?

    As opposed to some being biased from too much "kissing" of Microsoft's rear end? And looks like now Firefox joins for another push in scrapping UI to garbage with all these Egyptian hieroglyph design icons in it etc...

    MSI Pledges to Solve Graphics Card Shortages Single-Handedly... Thanks to the GeForce GT 730?

    New cards from 10 years ago? I wonder when they start looting museums to get old barely usefull cards to sell at heavy overprices. Like I've long said: If you think rock bottom has been reached, there's always someone willing to start digging deeper. Jail costs too much... Singaporean model...

    Best ways to make Win10 look like Win7?

    Win10 is far from Win7 with that retarded flat theme. Whoever devised that abomination should get smashed to flat silhouette, because three dimensional body is clearly so last millennium. User interface should be clear about what's button/what's decorative graphics and what's normal text/what's...

    Best ways to make Win10 look like Win7?

    Definitely not paying any more than necessary. Having to pay Microsoft for shitty GUI OS and buggy patches often breaking more than they fix is already bad enough. Microsoft should be paying us for working as their alpha tester. Damn I miss the times Gates was at the helm of Microsoft... Even...

    Best ways to make Win10 look like Win7?

    I have to support few let's say "PC incompatible" persons and already their use of PC use designed Windows generates enough support work. Hence it would be more likely for stony mile marker to learn to dance than to get them to manage fashion excrement GUI of Win10 without constantly bugging me...

    Huawei Readies Unorthodox 3:2 Aspect-Ratio 32-inch Monitor with 4.5K Resolution

    You mean that general public brainwashed and starched in marketing to believe that spending more desk space for lower height image is good? 16:9 is especially catastrophic in laptops: You don't get half decent image height for working, reading content etc without laptop becoming huge, while in...

    DirectStorage API Works Even with PCIe Gen3 NVMe SSDs

    There's no magical teleportation of data directly from SSD to GPU, unless those marketing diagrams lie: Any data going through system RAM goes through CPU/its package. Because that's where memory controller is and that's what system RAM is connected into. What's skipped is CPU cores handling...

    Is it the time for 32GB Ram?

    Doubt DDR4 prices will go down much with DRAM chip manufacturing starting to soon move toward DDR5. Unless there's some disturbance, memory prices tend to recycle same old plot and basically reach that low plateau toward end of memory types use. Once manufacturers start moving into mass...

    Electricity in my case

    Equipment casing is always connected to safety ground pin, not neutral. Anything else would create lethal situations with non-polarized wall plugs. What this sounds like is lack of/break in safety ground wiring. Especially SMPS using appliances have EMI filter in line input containing capacitor...
