Why are official supported ram speeds so conservative? AMD staff has said on record that 6000 is the so called sweet spot, and that pretty much everyone can get to 5600. Yet, the max supported speed is stated to be 5200. I know they lowball it to avoid problems, but how come they lowball it SO MUCH?
hi everyone, recently the microphone of my logitech g433 stopped working so i need a new one. i don’t need something professional like a 200€ mic, i just need it to play with my friends on discord or voice chat but at the same time i would like to have a decent quality. i’ve always been good with my g433 mic except for the fact that it was too low on volume, so now i’m searching for something with a medium quality and a good volume (even better if it have a software where i can adjust the volume) with a budget around 50€. here are two i found on amazon: Razer Seiren Mini Tonor TC30
do you have any suggestion?
Hey guys I havent been catching up about the intel cpus and just learned that they use their life span too fast, I’ve been using a 13th cpu for a year now and I never had any issues about crashing or anything else, Did these problem just start or have these problems always been there for 13th gens, and since I never had any issues am I just lucky or could there be something I miss?
I’m a bit of an RGB connoisseur, and I was reminded of my white whale recently: an RGB AC cord. I tried making one myself and it turned out terribly, like it was so bad. A few years back a company made one but it went out of business, and I haven’t found anything since.
Is anyone aware of a similar product to feed my horrible RGB addiction?
Thank you
I’ve updated my BIOS to the latest version with the microcode update that’s supposed to keep my 13900k from crashing or something. Am I done now? Is there anything else I need to do?
Hey! Looking for a new mouse since my OG Naga Hex is slowly dying. I really appreciate the six side buttons so I’d like to get a new mouse with something like that, but I’m not sure I would really like the ones with much more buttons (like the Naga), think it might get too cramped and I’ll probably hit the wrong buttons often. Really like the ergonomics of the Naga Hex but always disliked the smooth/glossy finish that it has. I’m a pretty casual player, so peak performance is less a concern for me than reliability and comfort. Prefer closed cases. Thanks in advance! (stealing the template from r/MouseReview)
