China is great at making dog bowls and plastic toys, or assembling other peoples electronics components, but they can’t make the components. Any tech they have is stolen. Or are you including Taiwan in your calculus? Lol, you’ve never had Taiwan, and you never will. And yes, Hong Kong...

Hold up..are you confusing GPUs with graphics cards? Because I wasn’t aware PC Partner (or it’s brands like Zotac) was in the business of making GPUs. I thought they were in the business of making add-in cards featuring Nvidia GPUs. Unless they make GPUs for industrial applications (which I...

Disappointing that they didn’t discuss the DisplayPort issue. The RTX 4090 is already able to saturate the bandwidth of its DP 1.4a interface. A more powerful card would be aimed at either gamers willing to spend for a top-tier experience, or professionals looking needing to work in high...

What are you confused about? Linus Tech Tips did a video about the 4090 saturating the bandwidth available on DP 1.4a with DSC compression, and the downsides to DSC. From this point forward, any card with better performance will need more bandwidth to see those gains realized on the screen and...

It had better support DisplayPort 2.1. The 4090 is already bumping its head against the ceiling of DP 1.4a’s bandwidth limitations, even with DSC. I’d like to try this card out with Samsung’s new 7680x2160 Odyssey Neo G9 monitor, or the Pimax 12K headset with 2x 5760x3240 displays, but it’ll...

No, just your usage. The upcoming Pimax 12K headset has about 4.5 times the total pixels as a 4K display. Improvements to GPUs don’t just improve existing gaming setups, they open up new possibilities.

Imagine paying $7000-$8000 and it doesn't have DisplayPort 2.1. Jensen is really being stubborn about this. Sure, there's been a bit of a catch 22 about adoption...DP 2.1 has been out a few years now, but the card makers got complacent with crypto sales, and the monitor makers weren't making...

I contacted Inno3d sales support on October 12th inquiring where and when the iChill Frostbite 4090 (the custom loop card) would be available for purchase, and still haven’t received even a boilerplate reply. Their website lists Newegg as their sole US retailer, but they are not listing any...

I got ads for two different Gen 5 drives when I pulled up this article, including one on the main banner. Being old enough to have been through many generational changes for many standards, it sure seems we are in the midst of one now for both SSDs to Gen 5 and memory to DDR 5. Memory is just...

Little late to the party with an expensive Gen 4 drive when I literally got a banner ad on this page for a Gen 5 drive.

I agree that monitors tend to be longer term investments. So it doesn’t make sense to buy a gaming-capable monitor now when DisplayPort 2.0 is right around the corner. It looks like 2 of the 3 GPU makers will support DP 2.0 this generation. Monitor makers will no longer have an exuse to cling...

The bigger question is what is happening with DisplayPort 2.0? Intel & AMD are expected to feature it this generation. Crazy that NVIDIA blew it off for 4090 & 4080. If the other two follow through as expected, DP 2.0 monitors and VR goggles can’t be far behind. (Spec has been ratified for...
