Ryzen 7 1800X Overview, 1 Week in

Ryzen 7 1800X Overview, 1 Week in Ryzen 7 1800X Overview, 1 Week in The Ryzen family of AMD's processors are here, and they're great so far. So I got my hands on one finally, so this is my Ryzen 7 1800X Overview, 1 Week in. First Glance This is great, AMD has finally phased out the FM2 and AMD3 sockets! It has been WAY overdue, and finally a new board and alignment has hit the market. What this means is, there can be more transistors, and components put onto the chip, which means in return, better performance. It looks beautiful, in terms of it being just a component for a computer, which is just basically a cluster of a lot of components together, as one big machine! Specs The Ryzen 7 1800X comes stock with the core clock at 3.7GHz with 8 Cores, and 16 Threads. Also including 16MB of L3 Smart Cache. The core clock can also be turbo up to 4.0GHz with an unlocked motherboard. So far so good. Stock Performance With Cinebench R15 I got a nice scor...

iPhone 6 Plus Touch Disease Problem SOLUTION Found!

iPhone 6 Plus Touch Disease Problem SOLUTION Found! So you may be having the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus touch disease issue, and are worried about what to do!? Apple says they will fix the problem for you, or replace the device, but somtimes Apple does not follow on their word when you drove the whole hour to the Apple store, and they tell you they can't help because the phone is either aging, or the phone is out of warranty. This problem is actually caused by consumer somewhat, so it is normal for a tech giant company to tell you "Oh well we can't help you" After the phone gets dropped, it can be one good source of impact that causes the issue.. look below. Outlined in red, the Broadcom chips which control the touch functionality of the phones. The chip that is normally affected is the smaller chip near the bottom of the image. (outlined in red) The chip will become the tiniest bit jarred from the board, causing the solder joints which ar...

Moto Z Has Been Reviewed

Moto Z Has Been Reviewed Finally, I have managed to get my hands on the Moto Z.. So, without further fluff, The Moto Z Has Been Reviewed. The Moto Z, I expected it from first glance to be somewhat like the Turbo 2, but not at all. I was completely wrong. This thing feels like a Galaxy S6/S7, and I thought they would keep the Turbo 2 plastic screen, NOPE! Not at all, they decided with this device to take it completely back to glass. Corning Gorilla Glass 3, mind you Gorrila Glass 3 has been protecting smartphones sense the Galaxy S3, so you'd think there would be a new Gorilla glass out now. The phone feels sturdy, and has a nice finish on the backing, even with the dock connection. The camera is a little awkward but I love it. This phone has a 5.5 4K AMOLED LCD, 4GB LPDDR4 RAM, Snapdragon 820 clocked in at 1.8GHz, Is stock with Marshmallow but I'm sure there's an update around the corner for Android Nougat. This device has a 13MP Rear shooter, with 1.8 ...

HTC 10 IS A VERY SERIOUS DEVICE

HTC 10 IS A VERY SERIOUS DEVICE HTC 10 IS A VERY SERIOUS DEVICE So I have been recently checking out the Newborn HTC Baby, the HTC 10. It looks a lot like the A9 in the front, but a M9 in the back, sort of? The HTC 10 is a very serious device.. I really like this device to start off, especially how HTC brought back the stealth black color option, that really makes my day, because with my M8 I had to replace the metal housing with a stealth black 3rd party part, because the Gunmetal Grey wasn't enough for me.. However that is definitely not the case here. LET'S get into the specifications here! Yeah the hardware! This baby rocks a quad core (2 Dual core processors) Dual-core 2.15 GHz Kryo & dual-core 1.6 GHz Kryo This is on the Snapdragon 820 Chipset, and to help it along has 4GB of RAM, or Memory. This is a 5.2" Screen, using a newer technology the Super LCD5 under a coating of Gorilla Glass 4. The OS We're running here is Android 6.0.1 Marsh...

An Idea Carriers Should Use

An Idea Carriers Should Use An Idea Carriers Should Use An Idea Carriers Should Use: So recently this idea came to me, when I was having a bad weather alert in my area concerning tornadoes, Our phones weren't putting out near enough Cellular Broadcasts, and we use mostly Samsung Galaxy devices in my household, but our city has disabled Sirens completely and we rely on the broadcasts now. I remembered back, when I had the Moto X 1st Gen, it would give me cellular broadcasts left and right, and 99% of the time through bad weather, and was LOUD! Older people really need devices like this. I though about this.. What if carriers customers could purchase the older flagship phones, at a huge discount even if they're refurbished? This would help the carrier make money, and not scare so many customers out of a contract. I know that these carriers have so much money and so many customers that it probably will not even matter because they are giant, but at least be like ...
