    New LG 45-inch ultra-wide OLED

    Makes sense, I certainly do like the 1000R on my current 34", but one of the downsides was the HUGE box. With the steeper curve this thing would seem to take up more space. Wonder if there's any places in town where I could actually see it in person :D I guess no 4K is a disappointment, but my...

    New LG 45-inch ultra-wide OLED

    I'm on a 34" ultrawide, and it's too small for my needs. This 45" might be just up there. 16:9 content would effectively show as if it were on a 35" monitor, which was a gripe of mine. The low resolution might not be a deal breaker, but it's a bit of a surprise. The thing is the curve! Seems a...

    ASUS 42" ROG Swift PG42UQ

    Been eyeing this one, RTings say there are HDR issues with it, is that true? Yet they score it marginally higher than the LG 48GQ900-B, even in HDR. Confused!

    Gigabyte Aorus Pro AC B550 NIC and USB

    That's a no, it does not work and I am still getting dropouts.

    Gigabyte Aorus Pro AC B550 NIC and USB

    Fascinating to know that it's not just RealTek, but considering how many months it's been I don't have high hopes on a fix anytime soon. There have been BIOS updates to fix the USB issues for this board (i recently tried "F13d") and it's not fixed. I have disabled all those things and was able...

    Gigabyte Aorus Pro AC B550 NIC and USB

    *update* I've isolated my internet disconnection issues to the motherboard. It was taking out my entire FTTC connection the last few times, so I swapped it to my still-active Virgin Media modem to isolate. It lost connectivity after downloading some large files and playing Stadia and the only...

    Gigabyte Aorus Pro AC B550 NIC and USB

    Updating the driver hasn't helped, the whole network lost connectivity, as soon as I unplugged the ethernet cable from the PC, it went back online. On a recommendation, I've done a packet capture and am now reviewing, trying to make sense of the information in Wireshark. For now, plenty of...

    Gigabyte Aorus Pro AC B550 NIC and USB

    I am using f13a which I downloaded from their websit and put on an HDD, which currently seems to be the latest BIOS. For now the USB issues seem to be quite limited but noticeable. E.g. when opening a new tab in a browser and I start typing, it would not register any keys for a few seconds or...

    Gigabyte Aorus Pro AC B550 NIC and USB

    I set up my new motherboard a week ago and have two strange issues and am seeking advice on what to do next: 1) apparently the RealTek NIC causes the entire LAN network to crash, and it might be a prevalent issue across all these motherboards with the RealTek 2.5GE NIC. I've spent hours trying...

    3090 secret memory PerfCap

    My GIGABYTE VISION 3080 OC starts throttling at 110C GPU Memory Junction Temperature. Meanwhile the GPU is 50C. I am reading that all GIGABYTE cards have these issues. I've ordered some thermal pads and hope to fix this myself...

    *** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3080 SERIES STOCK SITUATION - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION ***

    Just think about it, the amount saved by not buying any alcohol can now go towards paying the new GPU price premiums (over the original MSRP's)! :rolleyes:

    10GB vram enough for the 3080? Discuss..

    My Gigabyte 3080 Vision OC thermal throttles, I checked HWInfo and the GPU Memory Junction Temperature goes to 110C if I set it to mining.. and close to 100C if just playing games (though it doesn't appear to be throttling in games, yet).

    30xx Series Founders Edition

    Also true. Guess we can just be happy for those who managed to grab one.

    3080 / 3090 / 3070 Gigabyte Eagle Gaming OC & Vision Power Connector Concerns

    I've read elsewhere on the forums that perhaps it might be allowed by the warranty, say if you are installing a water cooling block, or something?

    30xx Series Founders Edition

    I always wanted a 3080FE, and having spent £200 over RRP for a gigabyte vision 3080 OC, finding out it has bad/poor VRM cooling (especially during mining) I don't know which manufacturer can be trusted anymore. People are replacing thermal pads themselves. I would guess, maybe erroneously...

    *** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3080 SERIES STOCK SITUATION - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION ***

    Same, though wasn't so lucky with the fees and shipping :) The 3090FE seems like pretty good value, compared to the premium the AIB cards charge, though some of them probably have better cooling solutions and people could squeeze more performance out of them...

    So if your a normal user and hate GPU mining,get over it.Try this

    Thanks, I've read on Reddit that other users with this card are having similar issues. Can't say I am not disappointed, but alas it was an impulse buy so didn't do the full due diligence :) I have just taken the side panel off my case and it went from 70MH/s to 85MH/s. No idea if applying my...

    I think BCH has 0-conf transactions and TX fees of less than 1p, which is why proponents of it keep going on about how they can purchase a coffee (or a Mars bar!)

    So if your a normal user and hate GPU mining,get over it.Try this

    I've tried to mine a bit of ETH for fun but it would seem the gigabyte 3080 vision oc has bad memory cooling and it's throttling, even at 52C and fans 80%-100%.
