    CPU clock drops randomly in games.

    I have old laptop but does the job. Problem is it has fluctuating CPU clock. When gaming, i5 430m drop clock from Turbo boost to 1.4GHz and it causes stuttering. Power plan is High performance, cpuz bench is stable 2.5Ghz and temps don't go above 75C, because i have fresh paste.

    I figure that intel speedstep messes up with the game. Bios have no option, since it's a laptop. No idea how to fix it or bypass it. So i could have consistent CPU clock.

      clock radio / radio lifespan?
      by shelby5041
      hi
      ive got a modern digital clock radio approx 15yrs old

      my question is how long can a clock radio or a simple radio last ss farcas operating hours?

      since elec components have limited hour lifecspan i would imagine the radio or clock radio would eventually fail.

      the reason i ask is because i have my clock radio on radio function 24/7 for the past 7 years and its still working fine....i leave the radio on ..never turn off past 7years...thats approx 60000 hours

      it uses very little power just a few watts i would imagine that may have something...

      ASUS ROG G513QY – RX 6800M powered but not detected intermittently + random crashes (Motherboard: 6050A3254002-MB-Axx)
      by EvazX
      Hello everyone,

      I am working on an ASUS ROG G513QY laptop with RX 6800M dGPU.
      Originally, this laptop was completely non-functional. I replaced the motherboard (part number 6050A3254002-MB-Axx), and with the replacement board it started working fine.

      For a long time, the dGPU worked perfectly stable. I played several hundred hours on very demanding games such as Cyberpunk 2077 without any crashes, instability, or detection issues. Performance was excellent and there were no warning signs of failure.

      However, after some time, the replacement motherboard...

      Vintage SONY Digital Clock Radio ICF-C12W no audio
      by UserXP
      Dear all,

      I have this old radio clock by Sony from the early 80s, I guess. The clock display works, but is dim, the function board appears to be OK - but the radio unit shows no signs of life. It doesn't produce a single noise, crack or anything from either FM or AM band. It's like it doesn't even power up.
      i opened the radio and it is full of some TRACON gray capacitors. They only have their negative strip printed, voltage and capacitace markings - no series, no temperature marking, nothing else.
      My question is, do you know of this brand of capacitors and how bad are...

      Lenovo IdeaPad 3 14ADA05 NVME keeps randomly disconnecting
      by pcwhiz24
      This issue has me stumped! I have this Lenovo IdeaPad and the SSD (NVME) keeps on randomly disconnecting. It'll stop being detected in BIOS randomly and when I turn it off and back on sometimes it'll detect again and boot up just fine...only to crash after a few minutes and either boot again or stop being detected.

      Things I tried so far:

      - Reset the CMOS by removing battery, held power buttons 60 seconds, all that jazz.
      - BIOS is fully updated (had to use CHA341 because I bricked it the first time trying to update it)
      - Tried multiple working NVME drives...

      QNAP TS-469L NAS shutting down randomly
      by spleenharvester
      I bought this NAS as "turns on then straight back off again". When I received it it had no trouble staying on, just the RAM stick was in the wrong slot so it wouldn't POST. I was hoping that was all that was wrong with it, but it's now started randomly shutting off once a week. When I find it off it will fire straight back up again if I hit power, no need to power cycle. Nothing ever in the logs aside from "the last shutdown was unsafe".

      It's got an internal PSU, an FSP250-50LC (which is wildly overkill for the hardware really). The electrolytic caps in the PSU...
