    Portable vs. Desktop version? What's safer?

    Largely depends on the program, but if the regular installed program collects data, the portable version most likely does the same. Portable versions still store data, just in a way where you can easy use the program on other computers and keep your settings and data.

    LightIRC - How to "install"?

    Basically you have to upload the files to a webserver and run it there. You could set up your own local instance easily with XAMPP. Personally I prefer CIRC for Chrome, it syncs all your IRC servers across browsers and doesn't look awful like a lot of IRC clients out there...

    (RETIRED) Sticky: Official CPU-Z Benchmark Thread

    As far as I can tell with the offset I think the max they reach is 60c as well with my h110i, but they idle around 25c. Perfectly stable at 4.0GHz, but anything higher like 4.05GHz, even with insanely high voltages like 1.5v, is very unstable.

    (RETIRED) Sticky: Official CPU-Z Benchmark Thread

    @Darren Nice job, I think you got a really good chip. My automatic voltage goes up to 1.5+ and my overclocks aren't stable on anything below 1.38v. Maybe a new BIOS would help but 0504 for my ASUS Prime x370 Pro has some issues, so I'm stuck on 0502.

    I run my 1700X at 4GHz stable. Here's your problem. Use Chrome.

    Is this website just freezing for me?

    No problems on Chrome 57. Smooth as butter.

    Facebook question

    Several years ago you could, but they removed that feature and deliberately obfuscated things. I think it was an anti-spam measure.

    Best Browser

    If you don't want to use Chrome for some unfathomable reason, try Vivaldi, it's a pretty cool browser in development based on Blink, the same engine that powers Chrome, Opera, and a lot of apps these days. https://vivaldi.com/

    Don't use Balanced, use High Performance. Balanced parks your cores. And yeah I bet my cooler has a small part to play in it :D I had to buy a new case to fit this massive thing, and it barely fits in my new case (S340). that's what she said

    Audio and video stuttering - why?

    Run LatencyMon and see what it comes up with: http://www.resplendence.com/latencymon Start it with the green play button and let it run for 2 minutes, then stop it and copy the text in the Stats tab and paste it here. Also some WiFi adapters can cause stuttering in Windows.

    AMD CPU/Socket Discussion Thread

    I would hold off on RAM purchases, supposedly AMD released new microcode to address the memory issues. https://www.overclock3d.net/news/cpu_mainboard/amd_has_reportedly_released_new_agesa_microcode_for_ryzen/1

    I think XFR (enabled by default) was kicking in in my tests, giving me 300Mhz above the stock speed. I see it affecting your clock too, you're at 100Mhz above stock speed of 3400Mhz. New score, 4.1GHz stable, crashed if I tried anything even 25Mhz above that. I don't want to run it at 1.515v...

    AMD CPU/Socket Discussion Thread

    I'm using CPU-Z and HWInfo, voltages are correct in both. HWinfo shows individual cores pegged at 1.550 constant but the CPU VDDCR is at 1.384, so some things are off.

    Readings are faulty, see edit. And yes, using an AM4 mount.

    AMD CPU/Socket Discussion Thread

    Lowered the voltage to 1.365 and now it goes up to about 1.417 and doesn't exceed that. Also wondering if maybe HWInfo's readings are off, this is what it looks like under stress: Corsair Link: Maybe the ASUS reading of 56c is the correct temperature and the other reading of 77c is off...

    OC'd it to 4 GHz. Idk what's up with my voltage. Motherboard says the same and it came configured like that. Going to try lowering the voltage.

    AMD CPU/Socket Discussion Thread

    Finally got my Ryzen build together, been busy at SXSW this week. Turns out I ordered the wrong RAM initially, which was tough to diagnose because the system wouldn't even POST, no video output, nothing. I got dual-rank DIMMs when I thought I got single-rank, but I got some better stuff the...
