Combined/Consolidated Shipping Services?

Hi guys, this is a problem that's been bugging me as an overseas buyer like many of us here, and maybe someone could help. I've been missing a lot of good deals (specifically from US) because of shipping costs, sellers using Global Shipping Program and/or not wanting to ship using First Class …

Yes -- or in "Nvidia Control Panel" if you have it shown when you right-click on the desktop (in my intel laptop it's "Graphics Properties"). At least that will show you the refresh rate. As for information on whether you're on SST / MST... I'll have to look it up. (I still don't have a DP-enabled …

Great! Does the GTX 660 work at 60Hz (3840x2160 res)? I made another thread recently while looking for cheapest/minimum required cards to drive UHD/4K at 60Hz. EIZO listed GTX 660 as minimum iirc, but my LG manual says 960 for NV GTX series. So I'm just curious.

The only version included is for Internet Explorer. The plug-ins for other browsers are not included - you have to install them manually as you would in any other version of the OS. This is not new to Windows 10 either - Windows 8 was the same. Indeed. And even if IE is the only reason it's there ( …

Internet Explorer has Flash built in. The OS does not. Check again. Any fresh install of Windows 10 Home/Pro. For example, this is what I found when I have my laptop (Win10 Pro x64) upgraded to 1511 (10586). I have removed these stuff in the previous build, and then they're back again in this major …

Well, OK, I'd use another laptop that's not mine to watch F1 livestream every once in a while. :P But if it's a paid service, I'll forward to them the message. It's happening. Others have already started to demand it as well. (search "flash is obsolete", or "occupyflash" and you'll see it) I've …

^ YES Flash IS obsolete unless you're playing/making casual games or watching live streams, in which case the provider should move to HTML5 anyway. YES, your computer will eventually auto-reboot when you're not using it, even if you're logged on, unless you change its default behavior. I've …

Yeah, interesting to see how that continues even after the free upgrade period ended (or especially afterwards, let's not forget too fast). My biggest complaints about Windows 10 (not even about the ads or telemetry): * Flash built-in -- yes, you can brute force REMOVE it using a script or manually …
