    News Switch 2 devs are already bleating about performance issues — Donkey Kong Bananza director reveals challenges

    That's kind of the point. The point is to be cheap. A nintendo console isn't necessary. XBox, PS5, and PC exist. Why go through the touble of manufacturing a console when they can just release on PS5/XB/PC like everyone else? Because.... really, a nintendo console is really just a $500 license...

    News Switch 2 devs are already bleating about performance issues — Donkey Kong Bananza director reveals challenges

    The Nintendo Switch 2 is really just a 500$ license key to access first party titles. 3? Lol. Try more like 13

    News Nvidia's incendiary 12VHPWR connector consumes its latest victim — Chinese RTX 3060 Ti melts down despite modest power draw after ASUS shipped it w...

    Then there is something wrong with the card itself. With a current of 10A, 2 wires would be 240W. The 3060Ti is only 200W, and that assumes not a single watt goes through the PCI-e slot which can take 75 itself

    Umm.... the 3060Ti is 200W, not 310W. This should not happen, unless they used a 22 AWG cable that they paid 51 cents for off wish.com ...... my guess is that there was a fault in the power circuitry someone that caused it to try and pull 200W from 1 of the 6 wires. Either way, that's wierd

    News Nvidia's latest DLSS revision reduces VRAM usage by 20% for upscaling — optimizations reduce overhead of more powerful transformer model

    It's easy to see what's happening in the R&D department over at NVidia. See, the problem here is that.... AI GPUs require tons and tons of VRAM. VRAM is finite, so they are trying to put as little VRAM as possible on GeForce cards so there is more for AI cards, because that's where all the money...

    Question Windows 11 minimum RAM requirements ?

    Am I the only one finding people that say Windows 11 has got to a point where 16GB is kind of the minimum now, even for basic tasks? This is just.... not true at all. Even if you only have a dual core CPU and 4GB of RAM, you can still do basic tasks: check your email, watch youtube, read news...

    News Sony faces class action over expensive digital game and DLC prices — ‘Sony tax’ means digital games cost ‘an average of 47% more’ than those on dis...

    Ok, so if digital games are 47% more expensive then physical games, then why are you as the consumer buying digital games? Why not just buy the physical game and save money?

    News Engineer creates ad-block for the real world with augmented reality glasses — no more products or branding in your everyday life

    Saying that not paying for it makes me the product does not even make any sense. To say there is no such thing as a free lunch is false. I walk into a grocery store, steal food, no one notices. I make lunch with it. I just got a free lunch. I ate lunch, I didn't compensate anyone who had a hand...

    Question "Safe" way to own a 5090, and about support brackets ?

    It's not the overclocking that's the problem. It's the load balance/current draw that's the problem. Yes, power limiting can reduce the chances of a melt. The 4080S is 320W and melting is extremely rare on that card, very very few cases. So you can undervolt your 5090 to 320W and it will most...
