    News Patch Boosts Video Encoding For Nvidia's Consumer GPUs

    And Plex server owners have been using a "hack" to unlock the simultaneous NVENC on Linux for a long time now. I thought the point of this hack was that it allowed for GPU virtualization on mainstream cards?

    Just lodging another complaint about your incorrect information of: "No ChatMix thumb wheel on earcups. Needs base station to charge" Since it's being regurgitated on your mashup articles of "Best <fill in the blank>". Articles must have been chiseled in stone it seems.

    Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Review: Is Mainstream Ray Tracing For Real?

    Hashes per watt is absolutely not the metric you want to judge a card's merit on. Case and point: you pick an RX 560 and the ilk as the ultimate card, even at a pittance of hashes per card. Usually, the increased coins earned from the extra hashpower outstrips the extra power usage significantly...
