    Valve Not Rushing Out Steam Deck 2

    Not rushing out another Steam Deck because they are finally ramping up to release their follow up to their Index and Steam VR? I can see Valve releasing something that is a combination of what they learned with the Steam Deck and the Index to make an insane VR/XR device that no company has done...

    Meta Cancels Quest Pro 2 Development, Quest 3 to Take Over

    The Quest Pro is filled with tons of "next gen" VR hardware and is a shame META completely messed up the advertising of this product. From day one they were pushing it towards businesses and work. They treated it more of a beta piece of equipment opposed to showing off it's great hardware and...

    Next-gen AM5 Motherboard Platforms Could Support USB4

    Yea, what am I missing here? I have a X670E Hero that has two USB4's on the back. Part of the reason I purchased this mobo was it was one of few AM5 mobos that had USB4 as well as the other features I needed/wanted. USB4 wasn't absolutely needed in my scenario but I wanted to be able to utilize...

    ASUS Releases Official Statement Regarding Ryzen 7000 Issues

    It's just the minimum standard for ram and at a much lower voltage than what the 6,000 CL30 kits run. I want to say JEDEC is around 1.1v where most overclocked DDR5 are 1.35v or 1.4v.

    MSI Takes Home Computex 2023 Best Choice Golden and Category Awards

    Doesn't the MSI Z790 Godlike cost around $1,200? That is so mind blowing to me to spend that kind of money on a motherboard unless it had a feature that your PC HAD to have. But even then, there are tons of top end boards that cost half of that. I looked up the board and noticed it has 7 USB A...

    DDR5 at speeds of 5800 would be considered either overclocking/EXPO or both.

    CORSAIR Launches New 48GB, 96GB and 192GB Memory Kits

    I use my pc for mainly very high end VR, live streaming and content creating but have never gone above 24GB of physical ram usage. I've even attempted to use as much ram as I possibly could to see what I could push my computers limits and thats when I only got to 23GB. When I'm live streaming...

    ASUS ROG Crosshair X670E HERO

    The reason I ask is the 60 fast charge is not something I've seen on any case. I'm curious if any USB C that supports any type of fast charging would benefit from that? Do you have the pcie 6 pin cable plugged in under the motherboard to utilize that fully? Your case reads "USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C...

    ASUS ROG Crosshair X670E HERO

    I went with this board for many reasons, but this was only 1 of 2 boards that had the features I needed for my pc build that was under $700. Did I want to spend to more on my motherboard than I did on my 7950X? Of course not but unfortunately there were not any cheaper options that offered what...

    What case do you have that you can utilize the 60W PD Front USB and what are you plugging into that 60W PD USB?

    CORSAIR AF120 RGB ELITE 120 mm Fan

    It seems the capellix LEDs require less power as well as the fans that use those opposed to other RGB lights use about half the power...

    CORSAIR iCUE 5000D RGB Airflow

    I wondered when I bought the 5000X early 2022 why there wasn't fan mounts on top of the PSU shroud. Have considered modifying for two 120mm fans a few times but have not had the desire to go all in since the shroud doesn't come out. But now they release this case with the mounts already in the...

    CORSAIR AF120 RGB ELITE 120 mm Fan

    And they limit their supply online to a 2 fan maximum per customer. I was going to buy 3 individuals of the 120mms since they are a near 20cfm higher per fan than my current SP120 Elites. That would net over an entire fan extra of airflow. I would not be using them on a radiator, so I figured...

    AMD Ryzen 7000X3D Processors Have a Distinct Retail Packaging

    Yea the early adopters fee can be heavy. I was lucky enough to get $100 off of the 7950X on launch day due to a sale but even if I hadn't I more than alright paying that extra $100 to use a product and get 5ish months of enjoyment out of it before the X3D releases. Or heck, the 2-3 months I had...
