    Reminder: No memes, even in comments.

    Posted: 12 Jul 2020 12:46 AM PDT

    This is a friendly reminder of Rule #3:

    Memes, direct image links, and low effort content will be removed.

    This includes both posts and comments.

    We've had an uptick in meme comments here, and while we mods do enjoy our memes - some of us actually co-moderate a subreddit for that, /r/hardwarememes - they're not appropriate for /r/hardware.

    While I might give you the courteousy of a warning, technically you can get a 1-3 day tempban for such things (depending on if it was a toxic comment or a just a jesting comment). So please... refrain from these sort of comments so we don't have to be Nazi mods, OK?

    What would this mean for ITX motherboards? and what memory kit would be safe to not leave performance on the table?

    Can someone please explain to me why GPU power connectors haven't moved from the outer edge of the board yet?

    Posted: 07 Nov 2020 06:25 AM PST

    It seems like there are so many other and better locations, such as the shorter end of the board, or integrate a power connection next to the pcie socket and plug the power into the motherboard.

    Why do designs continue to persist that put the connection where you have to stretch cables to reach, expose them to view, and in my case, have that little +2 connector flapping in the breeze like a hangnail.

    I'm not an electrical engineer, I don't design things. Please someone smarter than I explain why the connector has to be there.

    Would 1080p, 1440p, or 4K be more indicative of CPU VR benchmarks?

    Posted: 07 Nov 2020 07:54 AM PST

    I get this is probably inaccurate either way, however I'm wondering if we can assume that the demand on a CPU would fall in line with 1080p, 1440p or 4K roughly, especially when trying to understand if the CPU is likely bottlenecked in VR. My thinking is conflicted:

    • On one hand VR is pushing a lot of pixels, so 4K?
    • On the other, VR has roughly double the amount of geometry which I'm still unclear if that is a major factor for CPUs?
