    Anandtech vs Tom's Hardware Folding@Home Coronavirus Race thread

    I just started this folding@home, wasn't picking up a task initially but I hear my GPU's spinning up. I'm guessing it's working now? I also presume as long as my GPU's are increasing in that % that the %'s are meaning some form of work is being done. I'll leave it on tonight and see what...

    Is 76°C a too hot idle temperature for my radeon r9 380?

    Crossfire 280X's, idles at 40, loads 72 Celsius. I'd say check your fans and of cooling paste to make sure it's not dried up

    The Division(Crossfire Support?)

    Crossfire for my 280X'a work on high/ultra, problem is I can't run the game game full screen at 1080p/144Hz, crashes every time, I'm borderless windowed and therefore stuck at 60HZ and vsync :(

    Apple Music: I don't want you on my iPhone.

    i use the free "Denon music player app", it has includes a graphical equalizer if you want (for an additional $2), but I stopped using it because the power drain was much higher than apple's music player. Then again, I usually use the music app/listen to music when connected to my car. Note...

    RX 480 vs GTX 1060 (same price)

    OP: I'm personally biased against pascal, as I feel that it's not a significant architectural change from maxwell, and that the pascal cards are really just benefitting from higher clocks due to the manufacturing process (node shrink). Disclaimer: I am slightly pro-AMD, as my experience with...

    EXP GDC Laptop External Video Card Dock

    Lapdesk11, please refrain from making 3 forum topics trying to address the same question. Face2Face has the correct answer and solution: your dell has a ExpressCard 54 plug in solution that will work with http://www.gearbest.com/laptop-accessories/pp_229102.html .

    iPhone 7

    Eug, I checked out the iPhone 7's @ the Edmonton Apple store today (again) - The camera hump is bigger than ths 6 series. I was a little disappointed in the haptic feedback at first, but my second visit today (first visit yesterday) allowed me to investigate the haptic home button press. In the...

    whats needed for a External graphics card for a laptop

    Gaming or work? If gaming, Thunderbolt enclosures seem to be the best bet, but the cost (as well as hardware support) is so prohibitive that you might as well build a dedicated rig. As for work, I'll re-look at this and post later.

    Guidance needed

    Vegas Pro is a more compute than graphics intensive IIRC, which would traditionally favour AMD cards. Not familiar with Adobe fireworks. With a budget around $250, I'd probably recommend the AMD 480 @8GB since u'll be video editing. edited: oops, it looks like the 480 beats the 290X on...

    RX 480 not an acceptable upgrade from my GTX 780

    I think your comparison isn't a very fair one. You have an older top tier card and you're looking to "upgrade" two tiers down - granted prices this generation are considerably more than before, but anything short of the same tier upgrade is really a side grade - say you get the 1070, are you...

    [TPU] 1080 TI specs leaks

    It's pure supply and demand folks. Obviously, they're shifting their S&D curve. The few sales they've lost to higher prices have been made up by their higher revenue. So long as there is demand, prices will remain as they are. It's the basic fundamental principles of a capitalist economy

    How do Android users feel about high-end Android phones losing performance battles against iPhones?

    Unfortunately, a perfect eye has an arc minute of 0.4, while the average person is 1 (I wear glasses, and I have stigmatism and therefore greater than 1). 1.0 arc minutes can discern at most 300PPI at 1 foot. An adult forearm by rough estimations is approximately a foot. If you hold your phone...

    Now that Apple has officially angered me ...

    I'm surprised by the amount of responses on this thread in regards to using iPhones in cars with AUX. BT transceivers with A2DP can come @$20-30, with some giving pretty good sound quality. I just plug my phone in, hang it on my magnetic dock, and BT connect, which is nice as anyone in my car...

    iPhone 7

    They already do have cases, but they're super bulky and usually in the price range of $400-600 (because of the shielding, otherwise phone calls and texts would interrupt your music with that beeping modem noise). I think if I was going to spend that much of a DAC/AMP for my iPhone specifically...

    iPhone 7

    Good sir, I think you are thread crapping, but, from your above messages, the only point I would agree on is the new 3.5mm dongle, which, for $9, isn't that bad (the design could be better). I don't see how your other points relate specifically to iPhones, as iphone users have an option to...

    iPhone 7

    It could also be a design choice in regards to AMOLED vs LCD. LCD's generally retain brightness and color accuracy throughout a products life cycle, where as AMOLED's lose brightness and accuracy over ~2-3 years (some better, some worse). Sure, you get better battery life, thinner display...

    iPhone 7

    I'm okay without wireless charging. There's a few iPhone cases that add that functionality, but the efficiency of wireless charging prevents me from actually wanting to use it. Say, at 1A input, and a 5 hour charge cycle would take 6 hours on wireless if there's a 20% efficiency loss. Some days...

    iPhone 7

    Wow, that is an ugly adapter to replace the 3.5mm port. I really hope they put in a decent DAC cause no BT solution is going to replace my $500 IEM's. I think my only gripe with this new release is the second speaker is coming from the ear piece. My 5S is still my fav phone at 32GB due to the...

    RX 480 or GTX 1060 Mini 3GB

    So, I'm a mGPU user with 2-3 GPU's, that are 3 years old at 3GB (I haven't yet decided which comp should take the odd GPU or throw them all in one system). Currently, I can run most AAA games at stock at max settings 1080p at an average frame rate of about 100-120 FPS (with 2 cards!), and if...

    [TomsHW] PCIe 4.0 - 32GB/sec over x16, 300-500W slot power

    Yeah, that's close to 1000W through my MB if it was all delivered through the slot instead of cables if it was my current setup. Imagine if one power delivery part failed, I'd need to rebuy a MB and rebuild the system. Huge pain if someone was on custom liquid.

    New Pascal Titan X!

    I feel like I should address that OC comment. As a user of 5930K, there is a lot of OC room, and yes, 50% sounds like a cool number but doesn't factor in that the 3.7GHz boost is single core only at stock, with base 3.5GHz for all 6 cores. My chip can clock to 4.6 GHz (all cores, and that's ur...

    RX480 4GB or 8GB for 144hz 1080p freesync?

    8GB would probably be a better choice. I have 3GB 280X, thinking that was enough, and 2 years later 4GB is pretty much the bare minimum for new games these days (if you want all the settings cranked up)

    RX480 4GB or 8GB for 144hz 1080p freesync?

    the RAM shouldn't be the cause of game stability - to sum it up, it pretty much allows textures and the like to be stored in the VRAM. Overwatch even on 1080P epic only takes up 1.1 GB of VRAM; Rise of the Tomb Raider is the only game I know of atm that has an epic settings that requires 4GB or...

    Intel Core i5-4670K Overclocking [Help]

    Sounds like you didn't win the lottery. You'll have to keep up volting methinks. I got 4.2GHz at 1.25V stable. 4.4GHz took 1.4Vcore jump, but not the noiseless build I wanted so I stuck with 4.2

    Graphics cards with fans that spins only when needed!

    IIRC, Asus Strix cards were the first to implement silent fan feature if passive cooling was enough, with everyone else following suit. Edit: yeah, Asus Strix has had that "silent" fan tech. Feature since the 750, so it's been around for ?3-4 years. As for what card recommendation, totally up...

    DOOM updated with Vulkan support

    ... The ?recent lack of mGPU support has been super disappointing. I've been seriously contemplating EMA with a odd match of fury, Ti coupled with mid ranges cards just for fun since I got 40 PCIe lanes to play with - the lack of support currently is giving me second thoughts though. Seriously...

    Will 1060 be as bad for VR as previous pascal cards? (broken DP, no Asyn compute etc)

    I'm not sure what this DP bug/issue with Nvidia is all about in regard to the Vive (haven't been following the Vive too much as of late), but HDMI at Vive's 1.4 standard would limit you to 60Hz, far short of the 90Hz DP that DP would support. For VR that's a huge point. You definitely need a...

    [Rumor] RX 480 Overclocking 1500+Mhz

    If a $200 card can OC to 3200MHz without nitrogen, while maintaining 180W and 70 degrees C, count me in. My 280's run 85C at 1200MHz for ~350W each. Plus if that performance is really above 1080 at that rate, that's a huge win - unfortunately, this is all speculation. If anandtech can OC a 480...

    My Current GPU Dilemma

    I don't quite agree. I got a 280X when thy got refreshed alongside the 770's for $350, then scored a super good deal for 2 of them for $250. CF IMO works well, but like a previous poster said, it really depends on when the game or drivers optimizes it. Overwatch beta wasn't optimized for AMD at...

    X99 Motherboard which one should i buy?

    I'm using Asus X99-Deluxe, for almost a year now. OC 4.2GHz i7-5930K 6 cores @1.2V, 2400MHz C15 (so expensive when DDR4 first came out). Absolutely no problems, love the color scheme, populated with 4 drives, 2 external bays. Peripherals use almost all my back USB ports, optical audio...

    Is Multi-GPU (for gaming) really dying? Or are people just saying that?

    agreed with UaVaj I'm running crossfire 280X, and will probably do Trifire in the future (just stacking the GPU's from multiple comps, and replace the other comps with a single newer GPU). I'm running 2-1080P panels @144Hz, and some games (like grid autosport) support dual monitor setups...

    Input lag on HDTV - oh my! :(

    I've been using a 55" Sony KDL-700 something series (bought 5 years ago) - 120Hz gaming and 3D FPS zombie games are absolutely amazing on it. The smart functions are definitely a let down, but you should try out the 120Hz and 3D at least.

    Buy MBPro 15' or new MBPro 13' Broadwell? Super confused!

    derp, it would seem Nvidia just released the 950M, and... it's not that great of a rebadge, but going from 750M isn't something to scoff at either. That sucks. I highly doubt the 15" is going to have a 970M.

    Refurb 2TB Time Capsule

    ... I think time capsules were one of the things you never bought refurbished, as it's not the router that usually has the issue, but the hard drive within the time capsule. From what i've read online in the past, when the time capsule hard drive fails, you generally tend to lose all your...

    Buy MBPro 15' or new MBPro 13' Broadwell? Super confused!

    I agree with JAG87, he gave some good advice there. Broadwell's only going to give 5-15% increase in performance, which is extremely marginal, but it's the dGPU that you'll be missing out on big time. I'm pretty confident they'll upgrade to at least the 950M, making that a 2 "generational"...
