    Motherboard Raven Ridge HDMI 2.0 Compatibility — 1st Gen AM4 Motherboard Test Request Megathread

    All my bits ordered I had an dream build in mind which would probably have turned out ridiculously expensive, I've erred on the side of caution and may slowly build that bit by bit in the future hopefully when prices aren't so silly. I've gone for the Asrock AB 350, Ryzen 2400g, 8 Gig Corsair...

    The 1030gt can definitely not handle rendering with madvr through MPC-HC, I tested this extensively when I received the card. I will check playback with pot player but in all honesty I do think I have everything set up properly I just don't think the 1030 has the raw grunt, I'm quiet experienced...

    That is great im happy that it seems its going to serve your needs i have just checked the files that my current 1030gt struggles with and it really makes no sense to me i thought that there would be a point of lets say films encoded using a bitrate of just for example 18 mb/s would play and...

    My original build in the streacom case actually ended in disaster I had an A6 Apu and also tried to run a 3.5" hard drive in there, I ended up having overheating problems. I was gutted and ended up running it with the lid off, this time I will get it right!!!
