    What happens to the flatbed scanner market?

    Posted: 21 Jan 2020 07:12 PM PST

    There are many AIO but no flatbed scanner? Why?

    I'm the kind of person with many things to scan but rarely print (less than 10 pages of print per year).

    Why hasn't a better standard replaced the 24 pin motherboard ATX power supply?

    Posted: 21 Jan 2020 10:59 AM PST

    It's ugly, cumbersome and problematic to physically fit onto form factors smaller than Mini-ITX. From a laymen perspective a connector similar to USB-C which provides all the low power functionality seems sensible. 12V could be supplied by a similarly neat connector with similar characteristics to a PCIe 8 pin, with multiple 12V connectors used as required. The PCIe 8 pin could also be replaced by this connector so that PSU's only need to have a motherboard connector, many 12V connectors and some legacy connectors like Sata (no need for 3/4 12V connector types, the 6 pin PCIe can be done away with altogether). In the (long) transition period adapters could be used to allow new PSU's to supply power to old hardware, the underlying functionality is compatible it's just in a more practical modernised form.

    Molex and many other things died off a long time ago, the 24 pin ATX standard should too. IMO even on normal-sized PC builds where the motherboard is not space-constrained the wires get in the way and can pose a routing challenge that is just unnecessarily awkward.

    NVENC vs QSV vs X264 on recent hardware

    Posted: 21 Jan 2020 04:48 PM PST

    I've got a machine I intend to use to quickly convert HD content for mobile viewing in 480p. I had heard a lot about QSV so I went with an Intel i7 9700k for my CPU. Since I also have some applications that require CUDA for processing, I picked up a recent (but inexpensive) Nvidia card as well, the GTX 1650.
    Only then did I hear about NVENC and how in some cases it might be superior to QSV. But in all my googling/research so far, everyone seems to say sometimes this or that is faster than the other. So in my case, with an i7 9700K and a GTX 1650, which is the best codec for quick encodes that doesn't sacrifice the most quality?
    The 9th gen i7 apparently ditched HT so I have only 8 actual cores (as opposed to 12 if I had the 8th gen), but maybe plain 'ol CPU encoding is the best? I'll feel silly then because I could have gone AMD if QSV is useless. What do you guys think?

    Best benchmarking site?

    Posted: 21 Jan 2020 11:00 AM PST

    I'm looking for a reliable one-stop-shop for hardware comparisons and benchmarks so I can quickly find what GPU, CPU, etc. is better (in general). I know Userbenchmark has a lot of data, but it's controversial.

    Is there a website which combines benchmarks from reliable sources (eg HUB, GN) or which has a good amount of data on various components with a good rating system? What do you like to use?
