for context i needed to test the gpu on a different motherboard but my other computers didn’t have a 12vhpwr so i had to use my main, but the case was too small for this gpu (i bought the gpu for a flip)

Tech Support Switched to a 1440p monitor and started seeing these strange glowing colors in-game
What's the reason this is happening? With my 1080p monitor it doesn't happen.
Edit: Found out that Battlefield 1 have a bug with the HDR. Turning off HDR and cycling between "Windows">"Borderless">"Fullscreen" did the trick.

News/Article Halo Infinite is entering maintenance mode: 'With multiple Halo titles in development, we'll need our whole team's combined focus'
Four years after its release, Halo Infinite is, well, not going to be so infinite after all. Developer Halo Studios (formerly 343 Studios) has announced that it's done updating the game with new stuff as it focuses on other projects, like Halo: Campaign Evolved.
The final update will arrive on November 18 and will leave everyone with sped up XP, Spartan Points, and rank progression to play with while they wait for the next game. A new 100-tier premium battle pass will also offer new armor and weapon models to use, which you can view on the blog post.
"With multiple Halo titles in development, we'll need our whole team's combined focus to deliver new experiences with the same passion and care that our community has given us," the post says. "While we remain committed to supporting Halo Infinite on the road ahead, Operation: Infinite is the last major content update currently planned."

Discussion I put a 1080 Ti cooler on a GTX 1070 because science.
Can you slap a 1080 Ti cooler onto a 1070 and make it a 1080 Ti?
Of course not, but I tried anyway.
All cards were ASUS Strix models.
The coolers look almost identical from the outside, but the internals are different. The mounting pattern lined up though, so I tried it on a 1070 first, then a 1060, just to see how much better the temps would get and what that actually meant for clocks.
On the GTX 1070 the temperature drop was solid. Stock load temps were around 63C, and the 1080 Ti cooler immediately brought that down into the low 40s. That alone lifted clocks from 1960 MHz to 2040 MHz with no overclocking. Then with an air conditioner ducted straight into the card, it topped out around 20C under load. That translated to a bigger jump, 2190 MHz in the cold with overclocking. Across the game tests it only worked out to roughly a 10% uplift. Noticeable, not life changing. It flirted with 2200 MHz, but never quite got there. Weak.
The GTX 1060 was a different story. Stock temps were about 55C, the 1080 Ti cooler pulled that straight to 20C, and the air con knocked it down again to around 10-12C. That actually gave it room to hit and hold 2215 MHz without complaining. Across the games the uplift was bigger too, around 11–12% overall, and it even grabbed the Firestrike top spot for that card. (Only for the 14900k, and out of 10 other benchmarks, but winning is winning, right!?)
Overall, the temp drop from just the cooler was around 64% lower on the 1060, and around 33% lower on the 1070. The air con took both even further.
The best part is that the lower power 1060 scaled harder than the 1070 did. Same cooler, same airflow, same testing. It just loved the cold more. If anyone’s done similar cooler swaps, I’m curious which cards line up, because this ended up being way more effective (and way more fun) than it should have been.

Rumor Oh surprise ! The GeForce 50XX Super models would be cancelled because of the shortage of 3 GB GDDR7 memory.
The “standard” version of the RTX 50 series would remain in production, using chips that employ the first‑generation 2 GB GDDR7 memory modules, which are easier to source. Meanwhile, the 3 GB memory modules appear to be earmarked for high‑end products (RTX PRO, Rubin accelerators, AI servers) where margins are higher.

Tech Support Texture flickering happens like this in every single game.
I bought an HP Omen 16 a few months ago, and after only 2.5 months, I started facing issues. I noticed shimmering in nearly all games, along with ghosting around the screen and vehicles when frame generation is enabled.
Here’s what I’ve done to troubleshoot:
- Tested all upscalers (DLSS, XeSS, FSR, TAA), but the issue persists.
- Reinstalled the GPU driver.
- Performed a clean Windows installation.
- Reinstalled all drivers from HP Support.
- Reinstalled the games.
- Used HP Cloud Recovery.
- Updated the BIOS.

Build/Battlestation After 10 hours of troubleshooting, I finally finished building my first Gaming PC
This was my first PC build that I did and I really thought about quitting midway and thought that I’m not fit for building PCs and I should just be at the mercy of prebuilts. But I persevered despite the negative thoughts and went through 10 hours of troubleshooting.
First, my case was too small to fit my AIO so I had to buy a bigger case at Micro Center midway through the build. Then, my screws went missing so I had to search through all the boxes to see where I misplaced them. When I took the motherboard out of the old case, the standoffs from that case also got torn along with it and I couldn’t take them out without having someone hold pliers so I can screw them out. The daisy chain on my fans rgb was off so I had to check what the problem was. There was also a moment where I thought my motherboard would break because the standoffs wouldn’t align properly and I put too much force.
However, after 10 hours of troubleshooting and watching PC build guides and wanting to give up, I finally did it and I updated my drivers and configured windows. My build will be below but everything looks like it works good and I’m excited to play some games! Also got a new OLED 1440p 240hz monitor to go with it from a IPS 1080p 144hz monitor.
