"Or they could just turn up the DLSS knob." That wouldn't help what is surely a CPU bottleneck.

Not so with upscaling. I think someone building from scratch today, even on a budget, is going to get a 1440p monitor (or ultra wide), not 1080p. If their GPU doesn't have the horsepower for native, they'll use DLSS, FSR, xeSS, or whatever other technology they can to upscale. I think this is...

1440p monitors are dirt cheap these days, I see little reason in paying well over $300 on a new GPU just to play at 1080p when a new 1440p VA 144hz monitor can be had for under $150.

Gnome is for Mac users, KDE is better for windows users. KDE is flexible enough for either, but out of the box it's much closer to windows than gnome is.

Allow me to illuminate you: AI AI AI AI AI

MSRP $329, retail $599 😂 /speculation What a time to be a gamer.

This uses the Hunyuan architecture under the hood, by the way. If anyone is curious enough to try this one out, I highly suggest you check out the "issues" tab in the GitHub and pick up the one click sage attention install script, you could see a 30% speed improvement if you do. Even so, the...

The lack of movement in the gaming performance over time isn't due merely to node progress slowing, Nvidia has continually devoted more and more die space to AI and RT with each generation. If Nvidia were investing all of their efforts into raster performance, you probably would see that 50%+...

The one advantage for the 8GB model is the fact that it's useless for the better, bigger AI models. So, it might actually be in stock for longer than 5 minutes.

Is it possible to use a usb-c to display port adapter backwards to plug in a graphics card to the monitor? A single HDMI input and no display port is a real PITA for those of us with normal graphics cards that also want to plug in a gaming console.

Well hey, this time the specs will be written in Chinese. 😄

7zip ignores motw entirely by default for this reason. It took ages for the author to add optional motw support at all because he thought it was stupid from the start.

I'm aware, however when someone like Intel decides to enter the GPU space, they have to pick and choose what hardware features they support and target for optimization. Same goes for engine developers like Epic or Unity. A base standard such as a DXR1.2 or shader model 6.9 or whatever, makes...

DXR is a real advantage over Vulkan. Someone has to push for a vendor agnostic standard here, else Nvidia will continue to monopolize it just like they do the AI space.

Let him cook.
