*sigh* I went to college for Mathematics and Computer Science, heck, nearly ended up with minors in physics, chemistry, music, and economics, and stuff like this is what I've done for work among other things. This is my wheelhouse. We aren't strictly talking about how much better one...

Actually no. And it's easy math to check with using the equation of: Original - (original x improvement %) which will give you the value of the better performance. So, if we use 64% we'd have 1.64 - (1.64 x 64%) = .59, which is incorrect. Using 39% we have 1.64 - (1.64 x 39%) = 1, which is...

TBH, if it came with a robust enough app, I'd actually like it. We had a water heater with a thermostat that was starting to fail, that itself doesn't really matter, but what I found interesting was how much that increased our utility bill , I think it was somewhere about $20-30/month. (Our...

Over 1.21 Gigawatts!?!?!?!?! Great Scott!! (sorry, someone had to do it)

It actually isn't like other engine "royalties". Those are revenue based, this change in Unity is install based, and it's a rather significant difference. I believe UE5 is something like 5% over $1,00,000 in revenue, whereas this change is $.20 per install. So, a dev gets a deal from Xbox...

I'll point out the the RP line of Klipsch has a much more controlled tweeter than the rest of their lower lines, not so much "in your face", so I wouldn't summarily dismiss those options.

Unfortunately with IEM's, and to a lesser extent earbuds, how they perform is very dependent on how well they fit your ear. There's no way to say that a particular item won't produce sibilance with a 100% guarantee. The best bet is if no reviews mention it, most likely it won't have it if...

Out of curiosity, does anyone here know the actual production costs of the 20,30, and 40 series cards? To make any kind of reasonable analysis on pricing, you do kind of need that. So far not a single person has provided such data, not that it doesn't exist publicly, nor can be reasonably...

A-weighting is also used extensively for safety in work place environments. But yeah, A weighting leaves out a lot of info, C is absolutely better, but without a frequency response graphic I'd rather have it Z weighted.

Hey, not sure if you ever received any decent responses but I'll chime in here some if you're still looking. I'm going to use my idea of decent for this reply, which may be quite a bit different than yours either direction but it gives a starting point. Basic entry level pricing would be...

I'm running some Swans M10, excellent sound for the price and would take it over most items mentioned so far. The problem is that it's discontinued and has been for a bit now, however every once it a while I come across it still in various specialty stores. I'm not sure if it's worth the...

Well, sure. But I extremely doubt it's $4k, I figured it would be around $8k - $10k Nvidia is paying, Jarred is guessing around $8k or so. I've usually heard it's somewhere in the 40-60% discount they receive.

For TSMC, the cost per wafer at 5nm is around $17,000, $4k is about what they charge for 28nm and I believe their 7nm is going for about $12k.

In addition to the above post, if they make the curvature settable, this would be fantastic. Personally I don't like the severeness of curves for most of the monitors today and this one is supposed to be 800R (eek), if I was able to set my own curve for whatever application I happen to be...

Sure, I've only had 29 years but whatever. I'd say that you are the one without any respect here. If I want to run three 4k monitors, why in the world should I be prohibited from doing so simply because you are bent out of shape over the power draw and think governments should put specific...
