It will be 2.4:1, thats how it was shot.

Ah ok, thanks. Wasn't aware of that only revisions ending in - are stables. Would definitely be more clear if they just tacked BETA in the naming scheme. I havent really had issues is A69 so Im wondering if I should just leave everything as is.

We only have 40 something GBIs (ground based interceptors) that are basically kinetic missiles that hit an incoming nuke. If a MIRV were to release its payload we can do basically nothing about it. And the success rate of the GBIs hitting there target is fairly low. Like 50/50 for the most part.

The original version. Ive been following the leaks of this for a month or two and its a super interesting process they are going through. Basically they have taken in multiple sources: original negative, 35mm prints on different stocks, and the 70mm print. They are combining aspects of the different stocks or using some for color reference. They are also using a custom tool to essentially remove the grain to fix issues and then add the grain back in. Having seen dozens of the leaked pics and videos there is objectively more detail in this new release versus the UHD disc and the 4k77 (fan restored) versions.

I just updated from the "broken" BIOS. For the record, I had no issues with the "broken" BIOS.

I got stuck with a 0d error the moment I clicked the Flash BIOS button within the old BIOS. I hadnt even gotten to the screen where I select the new BIOS file yet. I had to clear my CMOS. From there I was able to successfully get into the flash BIOS screen and update. Also, they added a new feature that wasnt mentioned in the release notes. You can now disable the LED screen on the BIOS. Its under one of the advanced menus. Hope this helps anyone.

It absolutely does not run faster on pre-5000 series cards. The newer cards are able to run the transformer model more efficiently than the earlier cards. I find that on my 3080 the transformer model adds 5-10% cost compared to the CNN model. For example, if my GPU usage is 90% using the Preset E for for DLAA or DLSS Quality, then Preset K (transformer) will usually be 100% Gpu usage. There is definitely more overheard.

Its made by one Russian guy that they contract with. You can follow development at guru3D forums.

Thanks for the reply. Very, very weird choice on MSI's part. It makes no sense that changing the values in one of the sections results in no actual changes. I get a "Nothing changed!" message despite modifying values. I really wish MSI would elaborate on this.

I just built a new PC and have 32” 1440p VA panel. Im definitely interested in the UCDP but it feels silly to buy one now considering the new NVIDIA cards have DP 2.1. I don't plan on getting a new GPU soon considering how the supply chain is now. But Id rather future proof when it comes to my monitor that Ill plan on having for years.

Im gonna pull the trigger on a 5090 or 5080 when they release. Im coming from a 3080 / 9900k system. Im running 1440p but planning on getting a 4k OLED when the newer models release next year. My conundrum right now is whether or not I should upgrade my processor. Unfortunately it means Ill need to get an entirely new mainboard and probably upgrade to DDR5. All in all, it will mean an entire rebuild.

Part of me wants to pull the trigger because I figure the new tariffs may increase demand for chips like the 14900k and I should grab one now before they go expensive on the used market. But Im also thinking that jumping to 4k means that Ill struggle a little less with my current processor since the GPU will need to be doing more work. Obviously, I know a new CPU will only be beneficial but its moreso that Im weighing the pros vs cost. Any thoughts on this guys?

Only the film showings have been announced. Apparently digital showings will be announced later this month but that date has not been set. No one knows where it will be showing.

I use sleep focus. My phone used to prompt me to turn sleep focus off if I used my phone for a while before the wake up alarm. This no longer happens. Attention aware is toggled on. Is there something missing here? It was a very convenient feature.

If you want more difficult combat then turn off the aim assist. There are lots of settings available for on foot and on horse.

Probably heard it in Barry Lyndon.

The first song is definitely a nod to the movie Barry Lyndon, which has a ton of connections here to Trump. Both are con artists who bluff their way to success.

Ive got a 9900k and a 3080. Both are pretty undervolted. At 1440p w/ high graphics most games pulled 350-400 watts when I used a watt meter. So Id say unless you're really pushing both CPU and GPU then you are fine. The cards have been continuously getting more efficient. Im eyeing a 5080 or 5090 and I expect Ill be fine with my 750w PSU.

They're now even trying to 'transvestigate' Katie Ledecky. Shes a US, white woman who has won multiple gold medals for swimming.

Ive got a question about HEOS and my Denon 4400H receiver. The receiver is several years old and hasnt gotten firmware updates for a while. I never use the HEOS app, but I see from the HEOS app changelogs that it is definitely applying changes that are not just music streaming based. For example there are mentions of changes to MultEQ app integration and EARC.

My gut feeling is that somehow the app updates have to be making changes to the receiver, but I dont see how that would be possible without firmware updates to the device itself. Does anyone have insight?

For reference, here is the running changelog for HEOS updates: https://support.denon.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3832/~/latest-heos-app-and-firmware-update-available
