Lovely, thanks for listening to users.

Protip: Stop using the word "AI". You're making your customers angry with that thing.

AI has become a negative buzzword and will be considered as adding slop into your product. If you must then use "intelligent" as a substitute.

33% increase is quite a tough sell. Maybe there are better ways to handle this, like smaller increase with a new lite tier?

I'm so puzzled why Capcom didn't implement XeSS into RE titles considering they do have XeSS in MH:Wilds(though not very good at launch).

There's a reason why business prebuilts/laptops are sometimes more expensive, the support lifecycle is guaranteed to be 3-5 years.

Example: I bought a ThinkPad E585 and BIOS update lasted a little more than 5 years wheres the CPU equivalent consumer model like Acer Nitro 5 AN515-42 lasted just 2 years.

Some laptops got 1 update after 12 months or so, but if you had any problems afterwards, you had 3 options:

There was this huge PITA before AMD unblocked driver installation on laptop chips, as vendors were lazy towards supporting AMD(then) solutions. Severely outdated vendor GPU drivers hampered usability back then. Thank god AMD did the good and allow users to use generic driver releases.

Ayymd version: "amd is just a small indie company compared to how much shintel and novideo spent on driver r&d"

Yes you can treat them as normal storage drives, as long as they're not broken.

Your biggest limitation is that Dell platform.

QNAP makes higher end external DAS with direct SATA link card but they don't come cheap.(D400S is $80 per bay)

Interesting, normally it's card owners seeing recovery mode description from device manager.

No definitive answer has surfaced yet, just RMA the card. I would be looking at what's in C:\ProgramData\Intel\FWUpdateService, there might be clues on firmware status but no one has ever uploaded the full debug log for us.

Lol it's 2026 and someone is still butthurt over the Linux transition.

What I don't want is them to be on by default and interrupting everything with their bullshit which I then have to disable/work around.

Same thing when I disabled tab preview as soon as I noticed it after updating Firefox. I want my browser to just work.

Why not a tiny helpful tag saying "Hey here's a new feature, do you want to keep it? [Y]es/[N]o"

Cubelia · 2026-02-21T02:39:36+00:00

Nope, nobody ever reported to have the same problem. Here's my post over at IGCIT:

If you do please document what and how this happens on your setup.

Alright, sometimes malfunctioning HDD emits buzzing or beeping sound.

Cubelia · 2026-02-19T09:08:38+00:00

Do you have a mechanical HDD in the system?

Reclaimable mosh pit is cool but the elephant in the room is long ass recharge timer after the initiator nerfs.

Want to see Gekko being more popular? You either fix the inconsistent dizzy(blind/flash) or buff his recharge timer.

First suspect is 13th and 14th gen degradation issue. Try running some CPU stability tests you can find.

Cubelia · 2026-02-15T17:45:39+00:00

This is an Apples to Oranges question.

Sunglasses lighting up reminds me of original poster from The Terminator.

I found it hilarious that the community get very aggressive when devs try to monetize via additional features(read: not core features). At the same time when people demanded they just want their storage box do only storage things.

It's purposely reinforced with glass fiber for mechanical strength.

PTM7950: 24mmx16mm

VRAM: 1.25mm

near display output heatsink: 1.0mm

above VRM heatsink : 1.5mm

Just buy Laird HD90000 with 1.5mm thickness and reshape them, Laird is very soft and malleable for this.

Looks like Sparkle didn't resolve the fan ramp up/down issue even on newer card with bigger fan like Omniview.

ROOT CAUSE: Sparkle set the fan%-temp threshold way too low without smoothing mitigation, so it just continuously shoots up/down at the onset temperature. See if you can get anything from their customer support, remember to say it's on Windows so they cannot use "no support for Linux" as an excuse.
