Yeah, there's no doubt in my mind that this is a bad thing for the game and VR in general. We need less platform lock in, not more.

Hmm, I see 1.0.0.3abba was released for that board on 9-18-2019. That should include the fix, although I'm not an expert, maybe it isn't there for some reason?

You would definitely be fine as long as you're using an updated motherboard with at least AGESA 1003ABB, which would be any x570 board and likely the vast majority of x470s by now.…

It was patched for almost all systems almost immediately like he said. I suspect the reason he still had the bug was due to the Asrock Rack X470D4U motherboard being an older gener…

Yes, I know, but it never actually goes below 4.0 for me on all cores when doing a render. The 4.6 was referring to my 4770k which was at 4.6 on all cores all the time.

Not sure what cpus you're looking at but everything in the desktop space is over 4ghz nowadays. My last cpu was at 4.6ghz its entire life and my 3900x stays at over 4ghz on all 12 …

The website it's linked on is called widgetsandshit.com. I think that's a bigger problem if you're that worried.

Seriously, the attitudes of so many people on here are absolutely disgusting. Why don't we throw all the poor people in camps while we're at it?

Have you seen the Asrock Deskmini A300? It's not quite NUC sized but it's very close. I think it would fit the bill for you.

I know you're just using Netflix as an example, but has anyone actually had that app pulled from their TV? I have an old 32 inch Vizio smart tv that I bought back in 2011 and all m…
