    Breaking Dad's Big Bad Gaming Discussion - For all things to do with PC Gaming !

    Interestingly I performed a rather unscientific test, I went to https://humanbenchmark.com/ and ran the reaction test, at my age I wasn't expecting anything amazing, I was hitting around 250ms (the average for a human) on my standard office dell pc at work. So I wondered how I would fare at...

    As have cpubenchmark, at least 15 years. Nothing against Intel tbh, but to avoid turning the thread into a silly amd vs intel thread just going to know the facts in my head and keep the mouth closed. Hopefully we can revert to peripheral talk again, or talk game ports being dire rn :)

    I have two Asus Rog 27inch Panels, one is 165hz the other is 144hz, both 2560 x 1440, both full gsync, both 1ms response TN Panels. My keyboard is a TKL HyperX Alloy, with Cherry MX Red Switches, I did have blue full size hyperX alloy for a while, however I prefer red as a nice balance of...

    To be fair I've not experienced any issues with any ASUS motherboard, and I've used a lot of them over the years. They have all lasted right until the end and been hammered, abused and had everything thrown at them. The Issue with the soc voltage imo has become so overblown (pun not intended)...

    We bought a Gigacbyte P850M,850w for my sons pc build in May 21, it ran for a day or two, then it sparked and smelt of burning. We returned it to Amazon as faulty, it seems there was a lot of problems with this PSU so I am glad we did. We replaced it with a Corsair RM850x Plus Gold and guess...

    Let's talk about Twingate

    Wow, thanks for the indepth reply, the research and the further reading - appreciated. I also thought it looked very cool, which is why I wanted to discuss it further with the snb community. Anything that runs well on a pi (adguard for example) I get excited by, also with the potential to have...

    Let's talk about Twingate

    https://www.twingate.com/ Would it be possible to run this on the router? apparently it can run on a pi? Would it work as an AMTM addon? looks like a tiny install. Is it safe regarding Twingate being in control of the controller? Trusted by some small businesses, Safe for home use...

    I do wonder about this issue, no matter which bios version you are using, they can all be fixed with a simple manual cap on the soc voltage. I'm running 1303 1.0.0.6 which was the last non beta bios with cap and am not experiencing any high soc voltages, on full load I peak at 1.245 which is...

    Here is a very handy link for ALL current AM5 and AM4 bios's over all motherboard vendors, I am awaiting non beta bios for mine, as I believe there are still issues with AGESA 1.0.0.7 https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/19gqxeeAdUmkwgE0EvH4MlJ7meeDbEHYP-FHYW-PMyOk/htmlview# I don't...

    Yes AMD have handled it well tbh. That said, they could provide more clarity on non 3d chips, as I can still hit the danger zone voltages if I didn't know what I was doing with voltage caps.

    I only use official ones, they are sent free before they run out, in fact I have two waiting here to change when the other two run out. As I said this printer is about 4 years old, and it won't go to landfill, even when it does die, it will go in the electric recycling bin at the tip. Another...

    It's £2.99 a month, or 36 quid a year for 50 pages a month, when I had an epson it was costing about 150 quid a year or more for ink, that and theres no effort, they just send you more ink when your printer is low automatically, a no brainer tbh, great if you have kids doing homework. If they...

    No I think that's normal for whatever reason. Actually I used to feel the same, HP can be a bit of a walled garden regarding upgrading components and locked down stuff. That said their printers are amazing with the instant ink deal, saves a fortune with 2 kids constantly printing home work...
