Just out of curiosity, how is 4K OLED for text clarity?

More benchmark leaks: https://www.tweaktown.com/news/93301/intel-core-i9-14900kf-cpu-benchmarks-leak-and-it-is-15-faster-than-the-13900k/index.html

Yeah, I'm starting to lean towards a 32". It just seems like a humungous monitor to have on my desk. I'm also a little worried about panel uniformity on a monitor that size.

I need a new monitor for work (and occasional movie watching). I don't game at all. I'm coming from a 22" 1080p screen, and I need more real estate. I should mention I'm over 60 and my vision isn't what it used to be. If I get a 27" 4K, the PPI...

It used to be the P-series was a bit more on the glossy side, but I haven't kept up with the reviews.

Just wondering if there's any difference in the anti-glare coating between the Dell U-series and P-series? Or does it vary from model to model within each series?

I don't see the point of a price hike for such trivial clock gains. It would just drive everyone who's looking to upgrade to buy the 13900K instead.

Except LTT isn't pretending to be a tech testing show, they are actually a tech testing show and seriously testing tech. The Daily Show isn't pretending to be a real news show. They are a comedy show using material from the news. I mean, they...

If RLR is only going to be 200Mhz faster, (for say, the 14900K) then what is the point of releasing it? Will these chips be better binned? Will they use less power? What is the point of having a nearly identical chip to the 13900K? Was this...

Similar speeds....thanks. That's sort of what I was getting at. So it doesn't matter about the RAM capacity; e.g. 8 GB paired with 16 GB ?

I'm guessing I could just pull out the SODIMM stick and replace it with a 16 GB stick? But not sure if that would be a compatible configuration.

I've been looking at this Lenovo E16 AMD (configured with 16 GB) https://www.lenovo.com/ca/en/configurator/cto/index.html?bundleId=21JTCTO1WWCA1 It says it has 8 GB soldered and 8 GB SODIMM. Can this be upgraded, and if so, do I need to be...

Interesting. After doing some more reading up on this, I'm thinking this is more of a Windows 11 problem.

So does this not affect AMD processors, since they don't have a hybrid core design?

Would I miss anything from a Z790 if I went with the workstation board?

Hmmm... interesting. I hadn't thought of that.

No, many 12 and 13th gen CPUs have official full ECC support in a board like that.

I'm trying to visualize it for a top mounted AIO. So there would be the radiator fans pushing exhausted air out the top, plus top mounted case fans pulling it out? Is there normally room for both case fans and a radiator on the ceiling of the case?

I'm trying to decide between these two boards, and wondering if going with a workstation mobo would be better, worse, or just unnecessary ? It's $200 cheaper right now than the Z790. One nice advantage of the WS W680 is I can have ECC RAM (not...

Wow.....thanks so much Keljian. So, lately I've been looking at the DeepCool LT720, the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360, and 420. How often do companies like DeepCool and Arctic release new versions? Is it a relatively predictable cadence, or is...
