  1. I still have a dumb phone. Only changed from it last year to a Pixel 4xl. Kind of thinking of going back to the dumb phone, I literally don't even use the smart phone lol. It's connected to my router as a backup internet source, that's about it. I get phone calls sometimes. I can do the same things with a dumb phone. I might pop my sim card into my dumb phone again. Sigh.
  2. Nothing would please me more. Maybe just adding a simple old school teamspeak server with the IRC for chat. Actually yes please, could we all switch back to that instead of discord?
  3. Oh no. This is about to get very spicy very quickly.
  4. Like I said, I'm not sure if its my phone itself or the Droid Dashcam app, but my phone bounces around pretty good and my video seems pretty stable. It's always worth it to try free options first.
  5. I have no experience with an actual camera. However I use "Droid Dashcam" on my Android phone and it appears to have stabilization built into it. My phone bounces around really bad on its dash mount, and my dash cam footage always seems smooth enough. Maybe there's an iPhone version of dash cam software out there you can try maybe? Not sure if that'd eliminate enough of your bounces on a bike though.
  6. I'm in, but probably only on the GTX 960. My 7900XTX will be in use gaming this weekend for sure.
  7. Well, its kind of interesting and probably long winded, but I'll try to keep it TLDR. I started down the "ultrawide" rabbit hole back in 2007 with PLP Eyefinity with 2x 20" Dells and a 30" Dell monitor. Absolutely loved that setup for over a decade. I tragically lost that setup........ So, I bought into the marketing hype of modern ultrawide displays, and picked up a 32:9 5120x1440 / 120Hz display. It's not the same, at all. GAMING - Fantastic (when the games work properly at ultrawide, older games have problems) Daily Use - HORRIBLE. I'm always using windowed programs anymore, I can't fullscreen videos (due to the wasted space). For actual daily use / multitasking, I absolutely hate ultrawide now. I'll take 3 monitor Eyefinity again please. Gaming is certainly easier on a single ultrawide monitor. Absolutely. Everything else is harder.
  8. This is pretty neat man. You can buy these off the shelf, but not anywhere NEAR as cool as yours is. The one I've got is just a plain white stand, and it has some plugs and dips built into it to set the controllers on and charge them. I think it has a headphones stand too on it (useless for my XBox setup). Really cool mod!
  9. I think that'll work a lot better. TY E!
  10. I figured. 10 is fine. Probably safer for people with slower internet connections for sure. Up to you, I just noticed wow.........25 pages of attachments.
  11. .............. Page 1 of 25 (243 attachments): I'm not even sure HOW you could change this, but I've seen a similar option on store front pages like ebay and newegg I believe. Is there any way to change HOW MANY attachments show up per page? Like say if there's 10 attachments per page (which is roughly what it looks like now), could we get a drop down menu to give more options? I didn't even realize I had that many dang attachments in my thread. Other very large image threads might also benefit from it too. Just a small minor add on. Otherwise, feature seems to be implemented and working perfectly so far! Thanks E!
  12. This, exactly right there, would be absolutely perfect in my museum collection build log thread. And lots of other threads too.
  13. You have unsupported RAM installed from the looks of it, hence it defaulting to 1333. You have "DDR3 LRDIMM 1866" memory. Your CPU, being Piledriver, is about the best you can get that generation, and yes it does support 1866, but it requires the RAM to be of "UDDR3-1866 or RDDR3-1866" type. Because you have low voltage RAM (1.50v / "LRDIMM"), its being recognized as "ULV RDDR3-1333". This is my guess, I could be wrong. But its definitely defaulting to the "ULV RDDR3-1333" timings and speeds. Is the RAM on the QVL for the board as 1866? Server parts tend to be a tad more picky about these things than desktops.
  14. Isn't 933MHz clock speed = to DDR3-1866?
  15. The GRE should in theory, be capable of doing RT titles as well as any other 7900 series card I'd think. They're all Navi 31 cards afterall. It's a tad cut down in terms of shaders and all that jazz, sure. But its still a full fat Navi 31. I'm not sure which portion of the card is responsible for the RT performance on the 7900 series cards, but its not cut down THAT badly. With that said, yes Nvidia cards are doing RT better. We all know that. At 5120x1440 / 120Hz, I have zero complaints about the RT performance on my 7900xtx though. It could be better, yes. But I knew RT was a bonus when buying this card, and it does the job well enough with FSR / frame scaling. Last gen's AMD cards were an absolute joke with RT performance. At least the 7900 series are capable of PLAYING the titles with RT enabled. I want to say the 7900 xtx is approximately on par with a 3090 or so in RT performance? Please correct me if I'm wrong, but the performance really isn't bad for RT titles.
  16. I tend to agree with Pookie here on this one. Some of those topics, like the clear CMOS one, are definitely a tad generic and are probably going to get lost on google results. I could give a how to on how to give a case a fresh coat of beige. That help anybody?
  17. I'd like to submit a petition to perhaps change this to a general 7900 club? There's only two 7900GRE's on site I believe so far...... Up to you of course, not my club.
  18. Cover your butt, yeah I get it. Nah, you're telling the truth and I know it lol. I just find it HILARIOUS that this happens every single foldathon. Keep being busy. It's working!
  19. Somebody better at folding hit up @LabRat ? He really should be up there with my point output, and he's not. I'm not good at folding myself so I'm not much help.
  20. Cool. In another 5 years, maybe the 4090 will be the price I paid for my 7900XTX on the used market.
  21. I'm with you there bud, I'm doing my first loop in over a decade again. I'm not an expert by any means at water loops, I've only ever built one real one before. But from the limited knowledge I do have, Avacado and Sir B are spot on with their advice. Good luck with your build! It'll be a lot of fun building a loop.
