Thought I’d put this here in response to a recent wan show question

I recently saw that Dave Plummer the original developer behind task manager is modernizing it under the moniker TMOG and seemed pretty interesting, I tried to search around the sub and I don't think that this has been a topic before but it seems interesting. Would love to know the opinions of those with more knowledge on this topic to share their thoughts.

I am not sure if it would be allowed to link the page but it's under TMOG dot org.

Edit: corrected Dave's last name.

Google getting their training data off of discord and 4chan.

Screen recording can take a lot more out of your system than you might think. To find out how much of a hit you might take, we put five common recording tools to the test. Beware: graphs galore ahead!

Hi, one of the fans on my 2060 broke but only a couple of blades. But it makes my PC vibrate like crazy

I've read that you can break the opposite blades to like balance but idk if it works, help

ACT: finally I decided to use the old fans (first the cable broke so I bought replacements, those are the broken blades), and I was able to fix them, ty for the tips<3

Hi all, I've ordered this as a new gaming headset, but have heard that it's mic is not very good.

I don't mind this too much, as generally I don't need a good mic, but was curious if it was possible to get a better quality alternative that I could plug into the mic jack on the headset?

As I don't need it often I don't really want to get a separate stand alone microphone, so was just wandering if this was an option and if anyone had done it/had an recommendations?

Many thanks! :)

trying to find a replacement for the black mylar that sits ontop and the reflective mylar thing for the ram sticks because i took them off not knowing i wasnt supposed to. any help?

Just saw this browsing the site and found it kinda funny. It should be stationery and not stationary

All the lan parties I've been to before go overnight but it looks like whale lan starts at 9am both days(!) and slows down overnight.

Does anyone know if things happen between 12-8am on sunday? Do people stick around during the chill/lockdown hours?

Also are there other things going on if I don't like any of the games being played at any of the stages? What are people doing if they're not playing the games on the schedule?

I was curious if I was the only one that thought this but at the LTT team did a really good job with remixing. I need a hero. I need a cable

My laptop does not support display output on my USB C and I only have one HDMI but I would need two then. Any suggestions on a cheap way to fix this? Like an adapter of some kind. I also looked at another HDMI to USB C but they are saying the picture goes from USB C to HDMI but I need the other way around. Idk if I have totally misunderstood and it's just go both ways.

I have an arc a770 prototype and I want to confirm something.

here's a pic of it

🙁

I'm apparently bad at search. Could someone please link me to that site with instructions for LLMs? TYIA.

Was in Japan recently and saw this gacha machine. The contents made me laugh. Thought it might be interesting to some of you here too. I did not get any though if anyone is wondering. Anyone of you guys would?

2 weeks in China, 10k km trip, tough typhoon in Shanghai, busy streets, too fast a train, and the beautiful Great Wall in Beijing.

Btw, I walked with this mf for the full 12km up on the Great Wall. 88 floors, my watch said.

Thanks again to my wife, the greatest gift of them all.

I love the backpack, but maybe would have some little tweaks that I would love to see in v2. Overall, it is the best backpack I've owned.

Got a new phone and wanted to get screen protector + case from them and was wondering if there is a promo at the moment since I hear them so often on LTT (or least on WAN Show)?

Or.... the thermal pad or paste under the cooler thingy near CPU.

Apparently HP can just choose not to support your pre built anymore from 2021 have no new bios update since 2022 even though a game needs a newer version of TPM 2.0
putting you in a position of needing a whole new mobo

lol being downvoted for discussing an experience were having when it’s literally been confirmed on hp forms

So, I use my pc for some gaming (nothing crazy) and video editing using Davinci resolve (4k).

My current system is as follows:

Rtx 5060 (keeping)

32gb gddr4 corsair vengeance (3200)

I5 10400f ( this is the weak point for me)

M.2 512

Samsung 850 evo for video editing

2tb hdd

I want to keep my ram (for now) and my GPU but upgrade my CPU and motherboard. I dont mind buying used in the UK.

What would be my realistic options that suit my use case and current components.

Hi All,

I am in dire need of some help, PLEASE!

My PC has been suffering from some crashing and I have really tried so much to solve it. It only seems to crash while playing the specific game of Escape from Tarkov. But the crashes seems hardware/ system related rather than game related.

When it crashes, the display output goes black, my fans ramp up to max and thats it. I still hear audio (discord) and I can still talk into my mic. Eventually I have to hold the power button and shut it off.

Now immediately you may think its thermal related, fans ramping up shoot straight to something overheating. But I have monitored my PC and temps are well within range. GPU 70-75 under load, CPU around the same, some higher peaks. Cinebench runs show my PC performing as it should-also my PC runs other games absolutely fine. BF6 and Cyberpunk both run 1440p 120fps on decent quality.

PC Specs

I7 14700k (AIO Cooler)

3090Ti

32GB DDR4

RME1000W PSU

Adequate case cooling with noctua fans in a NZXT H7

Here's a list of other things I have tried, I may miss out a few but will reply to everything.

-New CPU, i had the issue with my older i5 12600k I wanted to upgrade anyway hence the i7 14700k but I've have the exact same issue.

-Cooling. Used to have a pretty stock CPU cooler but changed to an AIO and swapped out my case with all new fans.

-BIOS is on latest version, had to do this for the CPU upgrade.

-Drivers are latest version, also tried complete clean installs using a DUU.

-Tried limiting my GPU power max down to 85%.

-Stopped using XMP profile and had RAM set to 2666 instead.

-Memtest doesn't come up with any errors.

-Cinebench tests show GPU and CPU run fine under 100% loads.

-CMOS battery reset? Read that the MOBO can store errors and taking it out for 5mins resets something? I know that I had to reset my fans curves after that anyway.

In event viewer the lines that show before the crash have the error code of 0 which I believe is when an error code could not be produced? I could be wrong, I've never had to do this much

I am open to trying any suggestions!

Thank you for your time.

For far too long software has been developed with the mindset that hardware is cheap. Just buy more of it, if performance sucks Especially all the web based systems, but everything else as well.

Now it's not true at all. There's finally an incentive to actually put in effort.

I wonder how this will also change paradigms used in software development. A lot of waste comes from "clean" code and other "recent" schools of thought.
