Working on a second GPU review.

 I might as well start things off here! 

I'm working on a second GPU video because I had ended up swapping out the cheap Amazon Warehouse Deals RTX 4060 one for a larger quieter one. I also was able to do 4k tests without a 4k monitor by using the Atomos Ninja V. Starting to look through the results. Here is one in Google Sheets on Affinity Photo 2 using their built-in benchmark. 


The ASUS Proart RTX 4060 has a performance and quiet mode which is what the PM and SM data lines mean. So far from what I've seen of the data these two modes don't mean much from a performance standpoint, at least on my old i7-6700 based PC build. It feels like a marketing based feature and I'm probably going to leave the card in quiet mode. 

I'm not sure how much of a difference these scores mean in practice between the GTX 1060 and RTX 4060, but the number is larger! haha

Comment on the TikTok ban from a technology perspective.

Finally a bit of common sense. What good is a country that censors what citizens see? Doesn't one side claim to be a bastion of freedom? It goes both ways. Let's see how it plays out. Starting to feel like more of a "we can't lose big tech" or "we don't want to lose our political positions" than anything else. 🤷  If there were real security concerns, then our government should work with Alphabet (Google) and Apple to have their mobile operating systems prevent various forms of information from being gathered and transferred through *all* apps on their platforms.  I'll be talking about Android because I have pretty much no experience using Apple devices.  Ever have an Android app literally harass you asking to share your contacts? At least on Android phones, you lite...

Reviewing the Thermalright TL-G12 and TL-C14 Fans

I recently picked up a bunch of Thermalright fans for a new PC build, specifically the TL-G12 (120mm) and the TL-C14 (140mm). At the time, they were pretty inexpensive, and the promise of fluid dynamic bearings (FDB) along with PWM control sounded like a great deal on paper, so I bought quite a few of each. In this article and related video I go into detail about their installation and use.  Check out the video on YouTube for a lot more information:  Boxes for the Thermalright TL-G12 and TL-C14 fans.
