Yes but not really the upgrade you think it is..
Not sure if confirmed. I know rumored.

No they didn't, the mid range Polaris refresh is the only gamer card in 2018.
Navi is set at Q2 2019 and that's likely pushing it.
7nm Vega 20 is a data center card.

Vega 20" is not a mere die-shrink of the "Vega 10" GPU die to the 7 nm node. For starters, it is flanked by four HBM2 memory stacks, confirming it will feature a wider memory interface, and support for up to 32 GB of memory. AMD at its Computex event confirmed that "Vega 20" will build Radeon Instinct and Radeon Pro graphics cards, and that it has no plans to bring it to the client-segment. That distinction will be reserved for "Navi," which could only debut in 2019, if not later.

Yeah I just read rumors about 2-3months ago and that is it. It would be dumb to waste that 7nm Fab space at TSMC on a card that won't sell.
Pump out some good mid range cards and your good CPUs that will sell.

Intel announced their new 9th gen CPUs and also their x299 refresh.
Finally giving their HEDT 8C/16T i9 9800x back the 44 PCIe lanes!

Maybe misread and thinking of the Navi.

Can't wait.
My main rig is busted with a bad Intel microcode update pushed in the W10 1803 update.
X99 boards are really effected. Been holding out for this Intel update.

I haven't noticed a problem, thankfully. I know some people that have had some screwy problems with USB drivers and such

Not all boards and not most Haswell but ton of Broadwell.
Almost all MSI X99 boards and some ASUS.

Spent hours on hours. Basically can't reverse microcode updates when pushed by software/windows. Until a fix, it crashes when using certain Windows services. Specifically any browser but Edge and some random shtt I can get into.
Oh and it takes away your overclock if you use the non-patched chipset update for Spectre and Meltdown.

The die is actually the same. It is the exact same chip but lower clocks for less power draw. Die for die they are no different to the desktop counter parts. Overall "package" is smaller or footprint on the MOBO PCB but that is due to less components required for power delivery.
It is all because of thermals due to form factor. Without the form factor restriction then thermals wouldn't be an issue.
It is all about a thermal envelope.
Edt: I'm just philosophizing out of boredom.

Just had my Blizzard account email and password changed by someone.
Nice. Haven't really played a lot of Blizzard games lately but kinda pisses me off that someone has my personal information now.
Anyone ever contacted Blizzard before about account recovery?

This happened a few times even with 2step. It was all Blizzards fault. But this was during the early D3 years. It happened around that time.
I contacted them with my same email. Took less than a day to recover.
FYI I had my truck stolen out my driveways 3weeks ago. I feel ya.

I know. My situation is a lot less important in the grand scheme of things

No you should feel that way.
It sucks, these companies rarely get shtt when it I'd usually their fault.

Alright guys. I’ve acquired my old pc you guys helped me build back in 2012. One problem. It won’t turn on. That’s actually the reason I have it. What could it be. Nothing beeps, spins or whirls when the power button it pressed. It flat out doesn’t do anything. The power supply has been swapped to test if that’s the culprit but it didnt work.

PSU might be bad, something could have come unplugged
Posted on 10/15/18 at 3:10 pm to bluebarracuda
Speaking of which, what do y'all think of the PSU tier lists on LTT and r/PCMasterRace?
Posted on 10/15/18 at 5:15 pm to Korin
I don't visit LTT and gave up that subreddit in 2013.
Have to give it to Linus, his content became a lot better. Love how he is always trying to find a new angle. The guy is fine if he stays out the details.
But sticking with SeaSonic is always a good rule of thumb. I also like SilverStone. I just purchased a new fanless 350W SFX for my PfSense box.
Edt: is something wrong with it?
All PSUs are made be like 3 companies. If you really want to cut hairs it is just 1 company in Super Flower. That is crazy to me.

Johnny Guru has some sort of tiered list too but it's confusing.

And yeah, I'm about to buy a Seasonic M12II for $60 with free shipping on Newegg.

Besides plugging a wire into the green and black wires of the plug, is there any other test I can do to test the power supply? I just did this method and the power supply fan never came on. My psu model is this.
Not sure why it says it’s $213. My order history from Newegg says it was $95.
