    AMD Announces FSR 3.1, Improves Super Resolution Quality, Allows Frame Generation to Work with Other Upscaling Tech

    I had more issues with my 6800XT than my 7900XT. I also love it for what Gaming is for me today.

    AMD Debuts Ryzen 7 8700F & Ryzen 5 8400F SKUs at Beijing AI PC Summit

    If you notice every year since 2017 AMD has released CPUs for AM4. Now we are getting XT parts and that is part of the reality of AM4. I know there are still plenty of users with AM4 and I would also argue that this is the 2nd run of AMD longevity while being in the dominant position. X370...

    AMD RX 7000 series GPU Owners' Club

    That could be the issue. I assume that you have Freesync enabled in the software?

    AMD Readies Ryzen 5000XT Line of Socket AM4 Processors

    I doubt they could. vcache adds temps to the CCD that compromise clock speeds.

    AMD RX 7000 series GPU Owners' Club

    Do you have your monitors set to the same refresh rate? For some people, there was a problem at launch but like I said there was a patch released from the Devs about 2 weeks later that solved my issues.

    What are the worst TIMs?

    The worst TIM is the one that comes with no name budget air coolers. NTH2 is currently the one I like to use from Noctua.

    AMD RX 7000 series GPU Owners' Club

    The problem with stats is that they have many vectors. We could use Steam but also use HiveOS. How many Nvidia cards vs AMD cards are used for mining when Nvidia cards were better at it? There is also the fact that AMD drivers are universal. When you have 2 different AMD cards in your system the...

    Forza Motorsport discussion thread

    I had some issues with the Game on Gamepass. After the 3rd time having to re-download it. I just bought it on Steam when it was on sale. No problems since. I played a session the other day. The racing was fun but not visceral.

    Developers Question PlayStation 5 Pro's Validity - Base Model's Full Potential Not Unlocked

    There are few examples that you are talking about like Doom, Doom Eternal and Shadow of Mordor. F me even Batman Games run sweet. I guess since a lot of Humble Choice has Games that are already released I have no issues with the Games I play. I want to get Dragon's Dogma 2 but it is too much...

    Even if you got a 5600X you would be impressed with the uptick in performance.

    so whats with evga?

    This is why it used to be great to shop on Amazon.com and Newegg.com. It was better when we had Tiger Direct, NCIX, Newegg and Canada Computers. One of the best ways to buy PC hardware is when the store is getting in new inventory. I remember getting a blower style 7950XT for $179 CAD. At that...

    so whats with evga?

    In Canada the 3090 was almost $4000 during the mining craze. I know people like to quote US prices but all of us do not live there. In Canada PC parts are some of the most expensive things that you can buy. Even today on a Newegg a Open box 4090 is $2500 vs a brand new 4090 for $2900. Then add...

    so whats with evga?

    Most likely an agreement with Nvidia that they cannot sell AMD cards for several years. Nvidia had a huge market that sold most of the Nvidia cards. The issue with EVGA was the founders cards and what Nvidia would charge for a GPU. Just look at Gigabyte, Asus and MSI with their over $3000 4090s...
