Hi everyone, Today, we will be seeing the PNY Nvidia GeForce GT 1030 2GB PCI Express Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). This weekend, I didn’t write a post since I spent it diagnosing an issue with my Gigabyte GeForce GT 1030 D4 2G, where it seems it “died”, at least partially, on Windows. After diagnosing the issue and trying it on another PC, I realized that the card may have an internal malfunction preventing the Nvidia Windows drivers from working with…

I myself got my first EVGA card back in 2016. It is the EVGA GeForce 1060 3GB Superclocked version that costed just about $200 dollars at that moment. This GPU is…

Hi everyone, In this post, we will change our Virtual Machine USB Controller from the default qemu-xhci model to nec-xhci. After attempting to pass a USB Audio Class 2.0 device using the generic Standard QEMU XHCI controller, I was having some sound issues, particularly with constant pops and distortions while bistreaming audio. After checking for solutions, it seems we can use the nec-xhci controller. This is what I did, and it fixed the sound issues I was having. Before doing…
