If so, what were the pros and cons of doing that? I have a lightweight set of tires + wheel + TPM sensor package that I'm thinking about getting for my 2026 SE, then sell the OEM 18"
I don't know much about cars, but I'm wondering if a technical person can explain to me. I had a Honda Accord Sport Hybrid 2024 that was giving me about 52 - 54 mpg on my 55-mile highway commute from home to work at 70 mph using ACC.
I very recently switched to a 2026 Camry SE as I loved my wife's 2025 LE. The same commute is giving me about 50 mpg. In my mind, shouldn't the Camry at least match the Accord's MPG? I see that:
- Accord has the 19" wheels, Camry has 18"
- Accord is longer and bigger = more resistance at highway speeds = less MPG than the Camry
- Camry is overall more efficient at highway speeds
I know the SE will never match the LE, but given all above, shouldn't it beat the Accord, or at least match it?
How much improvement can I expect after the initial break-in period?
How’s the experience on a Honda accord hybrid 2024? My 2 complaints about stock experience is:
\- Phantom breaking: car slows down on the freeway during a curve because it thinks the car on the next lane is merging to my lane
\- Lane keep assist is jerky and unstable
I’m aware of the latest custom sunnypilot fork that enables alpha long, but I couldn’t find any feedback from anyone with the same car

Got myself a MoCa setup, was working fine for a week but now internet is extremely slow/completely disconnected.
I looked at the utility box of my building and looks like I have a dedicated line for my apartment with nobody else sharing my line (see picture)
I replaced the splitters and coax cables inside my apt but no success. How can I fix my issue? Do I need a MoCa filter? If yes, how should I connect it?
Here’s my setup:
Room A:
- Wall coax cable —> splitter —> 1 coax to modem + 1 Ethernet to WiFi router and 1 coax to MoCa 1 + 1 ethernet cable from MoCa to WiFi router
Room B:
- Wall coax cable —> MoCa 2 —> Ethernet to PC
I’m specifically looking for an intel CPU for gaming. I know the i9 14900 had problems, but with the bios updates I heard they were fixed. Since Intel is going to release raptor lake next in 2027, would you recommend getting a 14900k right now and update later if needed?
A while ago I posted about my 9800x3d + RTX 5080 stuttering, or “dipping”, in games because the 0.1% low would tank to 25 or lower. I made some BIOS changes that seemed to improve my issues as well as random stuff
System Specs (Microcenter’s prebuilt Powerspec G757):
- MOBO: Gigabyte B850 Wifi6
- CPU: Ryzen 9800x3d
- RAM: 32 GB T Force 6000 RAM
- GPU: GIGABYTE RTX 5080
- PSU: 850W Cooler Master power supply
- SSD: NVME Crucial 2 TB
Monitor: Alienware 27” 180hz G-Sync 1440p
- Cooler: 240 liquid cooler
Changes I made:
- Global C State: Enabled
- Power Supply Idle Control: Typical
- Memory Context Restore: Disabled
- PBO: Motherboard Limits
- UCLK = MEMCLK (1:1 ratio)
- CPPC Dynamic Preferred Cores: Cache
- Enabled EXPO 1 profile for 6000 ram speeds
- CPU Speculative Store Modes: More Speculative
- DDU Nvidia drivers and fresh installed them
- Updated chipset drivers using Adrenaline then uninstalled it
- Uninstalled all the bloatware (teams, copilot, gigabyte control center, etc)
- Updated BIOS
I tested BF6 for about 10 mins and it seemed to run fine.
I used CapFrameX for benchmarking and Xbox game bar for recording.

I’m mainly trying to figure out if it’s BIOS related stability, RAM issues, scheduling issues, or just horrible game optimization. I’m gonna keep testing for longer and I’ll keep uploading to YouTube for future reference.
If anyone else has any data, I’d appreciate it.
Can’t believe my eyes, finally!
I’ve been seeing some 0.1% lows dips constantly in most of the games I play, which cause annoying micro stutters.
This is a video of exactly what happens to me in the games I play. Another YouTuber suffering the same issue. Look at the stutter that happens when the 0.1% low drops to 16. This is exactly what happens to me in the last of us, fc 26, battlefield 6, and pragmata.
Computer Type: Desktop
GPU: RTX 5080
CPU: RYZEN 9800x3d
Motherboard: Gogabyte B850 WiFi 6
BIOS Version: FC10
RAM: 32GB DDR5 T force (powerspec g757)
PSU: 850W, not sure the brand

I’ve tried:
- Global C State on
- Context memory restore off
- PBO to motherboard limit
- EXPO
- UCLK 1:1
- completely closing MSI afterburner and RTSS
- Capping frame rates
- V sync on and off
- Updating all drivers/reinstalling drivers
Nothing is working, I’m at the point of giving up. I’ve searched everywhere on Reddit and it seems that there are so many people suffering the same thing on the x3d chips.
Anyone able to solve that issue? Is it really the CPU?
