On 13th October (I know, the worst possible date I could pick for a BIOS update) I was updating from the BIOS, from 1303 to 1709. After 5s PC restarted itself and it hanged on orange DRAM LED. I also tried it in ASRock X670E Pro RS, there it was red CPU and DRAM light. Since then I also sent the...

I meant more that most if not all cases made in the last 10 if not 16 years have them. And it's not usual for people to change original screws for other. But I was actually thinking about this when these thumbscrews were dropping on my mobo because I thought a magnetized screwdriver can hold...

Sure it was, it even had screw marks on the bracket. Slight ones, nowadays everyone uses thumb screws. About fingerprints, Gigabyte cards have them even new, at least on the bracket. Plus they don't use stickers on outer box. ASUS cares the most that you really get a new card, everything...

Hi, I was looking at this thread and also decided to share my experience: https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/bequiet-psu-seal-sticker.303046/ I bought this card on Mindfactory on 8th December 2022. At that time they didn't have any RMA, 200 cards sold and 0.0% RMA. In fact they got the...

Gigabyte is not heavier than FE, it's 160g lighter.

There's quite some mistakes in Conclusion: 1. Only available in China - just copy&paste from A380 2. Intel is pricing the Arc A750 at 16 GB at $290 3. RTX 2060/Ti/2070/Ti - 2060 Ti and 2070 Ti don't exist, they were Super

G.Skill probably uses Samsung for them or there is no rule? Is it possible to check which ICs it uses?

I will for sure upgrade, Strix A or F. This board will last me for around 5 years, 500€ is not that much.

Also AMD AM5 platform should be go-to in 2 days anyway. I already read something about it: https://wccftech.com/ddr5-6000-memory-sweet-spot-for-amd-ryzen-7000-zen-4-desktop-cpus/ There's a couple of strange statements here to me. 1:2 IFC all the way up to 3000 MHz IF, that is pure wrong...

As you know upcoming generation of GPUs will be very power hungry. I doubt more than 50% of users will run them at stock settings. Even now 3080 performance in your reviews isn't exactly what you can expect out of it. For example my 3080 12GB Suprim X loses 9% performance when undervolted to...
