A “Code 43” error happens when the component in question, be it a GPU, Wi-Fi adapter, or something else, fails to work due to a driver or hardware failure. One supposedly happy Razer Blade 16 owner received harsher treatment when he spent $4,500 on his RTX 5080 configuration, only for the graphics processor to stop being detected after crashing while playing a game. On top of that, Razer’s infamous customer support seemingly offered a “good as new” replacement instead of a brand-new one, which was obviously rejected. The refund was rejected from Razer’s end because the company claims that its […]

The maximum power limit for NVIDIA’s laptop GPUs for several generations has remained at 175W, but one AI-assisted mod has seemingly managed to break through that wattage barrier, allowing a notebook RTX 5090 to operate at 250W. A YouTuber manages to successfully run on the mod on his 2025 XMG Neo 16, and with a little help from the Oasis Water Cooler, it’s able to keep its temperatures in check, too. Without a water cooler, the RTX 5090 could have reached thermal throttling, not to mention the extreme risk and stress caused to the gaming laptop’s other components There’s no link […]

Since the advent of the age of LLMs, the residual prices of NVIDIA's GPUs have become a barometer of sorts for gauging the health of the ongoing AI super cycle. And, if the latest figures from Silicon Data are anything to go by, the upcycle has never been more robust, despite calls for pacing the development cadence of AI models from the likes of Anthropic's Dario Amodei and OpenAI's Sam Altman. NVIDIA's B200 GPUs currently have a residual value that is 158 percent of their original launch price even ~1 year after mass availability According to Silicon Data, NVIDIA's older […]
