How would that affect your PC's performance?

There is some kind of design flaw that's been discovered with them, and they might need to recall a lot of cpus. But I dunno. I don't really push mine that hard so it's probably fine.

Oh shit, that is unfortunate. But yeah, I've never been a fan of overclocking (voiding warranty). I'll just turn down settings if I need to.

I had to lower the settings on mine too because it runs crazy hot, and it can cause permanent damage.

Why do you have a monitor in portrait?

Partly to save space, and partly because I already had the ultrawide monitor and didn't want to get rid of it when I switched my main monitor to a 4k screen.

I like it so far. I can put reference pics and unimportant stuff over there.

It's actually where I make more money in a year - working from home - than you'll see in a decade, but yeah, I do squeeze in a little time to own you.

New Steam Machine announced. No price set. Definitely more than $1,000.

The specs on it didn’t seem terribly impressive. IGN said Silent Hill F was running at 15-20 FPS on their hands on. Cost should be interesting.

I hope trag saw the news of the Steam Machine and thought of Daft Punk. He loves that song.

Any Linux nerds in here? Thinking of putting it on my laptop that I never use.
