    Benchmark recommendations for new GPU

    Hi people I managed to get myself a 3080 at long last and want to make sure I'm getting the sort of performance I should be from such expensive hardware, so can anyone tell me what benchmarks I should be doing and point me to some scores to help compare with?

So if I increase my virtual memory to help should I be increasing it for my Windows drive or the drive the game is...

    New to 4k advice needed

    I have no experience with plex or emby, but would I simply be able to install a plex app on my Windows 10 pc and then stream the files to an android app on the android tv? Would this give me 4k hdr?

    Running a cpu with a heatsink but no attached fan......
