The thing is that starting next year older PC hardware like Intel 6th/7th/Skylake CPU can't install Windows 11. So not if as if it a choice, unless the PC supports Windows 11 than I see why not upgrade to it. Recent Windows 11 have a lot of improvement as compare with previous releases. I am...

My question and concern is the driver, the last Miniforum PC I had. I got trouble with the driver in particular the APU and mobile Radeon had issues with drivers from AMD wesbite. I had to use MS update to install the driver so it won't freeze and work properly.

Few things put me off: 1) The requirement of USB-C Adapter affects it's output. This is simply bad seriously as no matter how good the speaker is. It is still dependent on the USB-C Adapter use. 2) The high price which you can get a proper speaker which comes with a AC adapter. A proper...

The last AMD Driver gave me headaches, unstable and frequent crash. Not sure about this release if not I will just stick to last year 23.X drivers.

I only know Gigabyte and MSI does update their motherboard drivers quite often so the AMD chipset driver can be installed. Despite it may not be the same version or older at least the chipset driver is stable and has no issues. ASUS and ASROCK does not update their motherboard chipset often so...

Haizz can they just called it Windows 10 Service Pack 2? When Windows 11 came out is actually a improvement over Win 10 and now Win 12? AI? That means it definetely need modern CPU to run.

Haizz yet the core issue is older games will need older OS due to DRM. Which is why I still have a Win 7 and 8.1 PC so Steam you can cut support. I can find ways to enjoy old games like physical CD.

Oh... great MS move to force people to move to the next OS. For those still using older hardware so means have to upgrade their PC? Especially those still have Intel Skylake PC so have to change PC? I am so reluctant to upgrade to Win on my Intel 9th PC, start menu is one thing I will miss...

Sign... first Windows 11 which is simply a upgrade version of Windows 10. Than now Windows 12, Microsoft should just call it. Windows 10 Service Pack 3. Seriously Windows 11 feels like Windows 10 Service Pack 2 but they won't name it that way. Since Win 12 is on the way, Win 10 will be like Win...

First was the RTX 4060 Ti which didn't have good reviews and now RTX 4060. Seriously Nvidia? Why not just re-release RTX 3060 instead of manufacturing such crappy graphic card. VRAM is lesser as well as why PCIE 4.0 at 8X? Bump up the VRAM of RTX 3060 Ti will be better for re-release than the...

Cuz this model at this point have been discontinued so I was very surprised that Amazon is selling it. The H410R have many version, H410R, H410R RGB, H412R but these have ceased to exist. By modern standards this CPU cooler isn't sufficient unless powering lower end quad core CPUs in MATX/ITX...

Err.. that is basically a Cooler Master H410R:

TBH I don't like Windows 11, is not only demanding on resources. I hope Microsoft address two things, one is bring back the start menu from Windows 10. Second address performance issue since it is known that VBS cripple performance which there are articles about it.

I have own the original Cooler Master Hyper 212X that is one of the best heatsink fan back in the day in my opinion. Than when CM release the Hyper 212 Black edition, I assume it should be better. Installation wise the new series for Hyper 212 Black edition is easier than the original 212...

Here in SG the Sound Blaster X5 is priced at SGD$369. The main issue is not only the cheap build but at that price I can get a proper sound interface or mixer. The only issue I had is since it is price so expensive, is it doesn't offer any XLR balanced or unbalanced output which most sound...
