  1. If I am reading this right, are you saying it started after enabling AMP following an AGESA update?
  2. Gotta make "14th gen" look good somehow I guess. As much fun as I am going to have with the Z790 test bench, gotta say I hope Intel gets their insane power/thermal limits figured out for 15th gen, otherwise I think the daily rig will upgrade to another AMD come 2025ish. Performance per watt, I'm not exactly being impressed much by Intel right now.
  3. First one it ever prompted me for. C1 in use since August 2022. I don't hide my taskbar and have tons of desktop icons, so I'm not exactly doing what you're supposed to do with OLEDs, but I haven't observed any potential burn in. Edit: To be clear, I can absolutely adapt to fewer desktop icons, and probably will. But I absolutely hated the hidden taskbar and waiting half a second for it to pop up for me to click on something, so I will never do that.
  4. A bit over 2000 hours screen time now and it prompted me to do a 10 minute pixel clean over the weekend.
  5. Nice Monsoon fittings! I actually really like that industrial look of the Aquacomputer block.
  6. Wow. Pretty soon my 3080 Ti is going to feel inadequate at 4k RT
  7. From what I've heard (rumor wise), Zen 5 in Q2 of 2024. Going back to the 14th gen releases though, honestly, if 14900k is basically a 13900ks with potentially a better IMC, at $589, that's a pretty good price vs the $730 the 13900ks costs now. Its basically a better, but cheaper 13900ks. Clearly the star of the show here is going to be the 14700k though with both increased clocks, but an increase in cores too.
  8. This is where my strategy of no lights whatsoever inside my builds helps my sanity a ton.
  9. What's dumb is the fact that they'd even call that a 3050. Call it a 3040. Nvidia, no stranger to obfuscating the products to the customers. See DDR4 vs DDR5 GT 1030's, vastly different performance. The other one is the 12GB vs 8GB 3060.
  10. Oh I think the only one I ever beat was the original.
  11. I think Black Flag was the last AC game I played.
  12. Very nice, was this on the Z690 Dark or the Z790 Apex?
  13. Its EK. I am not sure you can use "machine" and "quality" in the same sentence with them.
  14. Oh I was referring to the source of this "news". If this is a Z790 board, then what the heck is this thing:
  15. Is that an AI image? Its like the Intel 115x/1200 LGA latch with an AM4 CPU lol.
  16. Man that's lame. I need to get some time to throw my DCUII OC and my EVGA up on the bench and see what they do. So far from what I've heard from you and Basti, the DCUII's are a dud.
  17. It looks like its still a 560 non-Ti, I think @damric was saying it was advertised as a Top model, but is in fact only an OC model DCUII, so probably overpayed for it.
