    Computer name charcters very limited.


    I find it very annoying that after all these years and improvements in coding and programing the only character/symbol you can use is the HYPHEN:Why oh why?? Seems so stupid. Why do we have to have something like PETES-HP-LAPTOP instead of Pete's Hp Laptop?? How hard can it be to have that?Just another minus for MS - bad opinion.

    :)

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds
