Couldn't remember the last time I posted in here, so I thought it was time for an update.

My setup complete with an empty gatorade, this morning's cereal bowl, etc. I normally don't keep the PSP in there (too dusty) but I was playing it last night so I left it there.

I'm really jealous. All of your desks are pretty much perfect. I've got stuff all over mine! ...the glories of being a college student :p

Weee, here it is, added a 3rd monitor since last update...

Ok, does Windows naturally support 3 monitors or do you have to have a special program for that one?

And to add to that, you would need like max sensitivity just to turn 180 degree.

hehe, i have that maxxed out all the time, so i only need to move my mouse about 3,5cm to get the cursor across both displays.

but i only use one display for gaming -- having to move my head somewhat doesn't help me alot (just like dual booting -- using both displays is only possible in xp, lol)

So .. the brand new OSes from Microsoft and Apple don't know how to handle multiple monitors?

Think again ... all modern OSes are capable or multiple monitors.

All slightly different.. each in their own way...

Not the tidiest desk in the world (Although I managed to cut out the bad parts from the picture :shiftyninja: ) I like a minimalistic approach but I'm too lazy to tidy my desk so it looks like a tip (+cables and room) :(

Totally off-topic, but where can one find the wallpaper you're using?

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      After watching the Apple event earlier this week it is quite the contrast. Apple is going back and tweaking the code to make things more efficient in may areas of MacOS. Windows is boosting your electric build to hide their issues.

      It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.

      Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.

      I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.

      It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
