What OS are you testing on them?

#1 ) If its some flavour of Linux how about trying flooding the beast with multiple simultaneous gcc stress tests for ..... say ..... overnight ? :)
Early Zens apparently had an intermittent hardware bug with branchy code, blowing out randomly during heavy compiles.

#2) Check out how well the VM stuff works? So many PCIe channels could be fun to play with multiple graphics cards in a VM.

Nah not double thread ripper, double i9. Intel is shipping their 12c i9 with a 2.9ghz base clock due to power/heat issues. I cant imagine what thei 16c processor is gonna run at.

That just means you plebians need to ditch your 1990s water cooling and use modern ATI dry ice cooling.

No, this is the worst thing ever. Paint3D is trash and basic image manipulation is super important. I use this daily.

If they bring back Image Composer I will forgive them, however.

I'm leaving for Europe tonight but I want to make sure you aren't looking at the horrible default settings for the Dell monitor. At first you will be like "Oh God NO!" and then after you do this, you will be "YES!" First make sure to enable gsync for borderless window and full screen after you install the card and drivers. Then do the following:

Nvidia Control Panel > Adjust desktop color settings
Select "Use NVIDIA settings"
Brightness 50%
Contrast 50%
Gamma 0.72
Digital Vibrance 70%
Hue 0


Dell S2716DG menu
Brightness 43%
Contrast 75%
Set Custom Color:
R 97% G 99% B 96%

You will be blown away by the quality of the picture after doing this :)

My settings were pretty close to this, can confirm, looks great. Love this monitor.

You can get Photoshop and Lightroom for like $9.99 per month. All updates included. There is no need to pirate shit anymore. For the cost of a Starbucks coffee you can have it all.

Upgrading one of my 24in monitors to 144hz. Wondering if I should get BenQ xl2411, xl2430 or Asus VG248q. The xl2430 seems overpriced. Anyone here own either?

Even though Paint is deprecated it will still be available as a free app on the Windows Store.
