    Trust Newegg reviews for NVMe SSD? - lower cost or "big name" like Samsung?

    It's not my spreadsheet. Just linking to it.

    Trust Newegg reviews for NVMe SSD? - lower cost or "big name" like Samsung?

    The better devices will have DRAM cache in addition to SLC and so, for some use cases, dramatically out perform them. Just being honest, the only short term failure I've had was with a current gen Samsung EVO SSD (SATA) drive. RMA was easy and I got a replacement. That might be the other...

    ChatGPT linked to declining academic performance and memory loss in new study

    Education is somewhat of a partnership. Up to you if you think "cheating" (whatever that might mean to you) is what you want to do.

    ChatGPT linked to declining academic performance and memory loss in new study

    I just stuck my finger out the windows, and yep, sure enough I've confirmed a week long study of over 10 data points that proves that global climate change has ended. I guess I need to write a magazine article so everyone will know.

    Gaming on Quadro?

    I used to game some on a Quadro, but that's getting pretty old now. There are some benefits in that you usually get more memory and unlocked encoders and such, but you have to at least be on the low mid-tier or above. The ultra low end is pretty bad, and of course the high end gets very...

    AMD FidelityFX™ Super Resolution 3 Now Available

    Available != Visible (built into things). Waiting to see what happens and if there are realized improvements. Give it some time.

    Intel Core i9-14900KS

    Consumes tons of power, costs 20+% more, delivers a good frame or two extra (if that much) in performance. I hear that maybe Intel only made 14 of these.... which sounds about right....

    Linux market share passes 4% for first time

    Some might argue (and probably would be right) that "gaming consoles" are for games. I think if you're going to go through the expense of having a computer system, ideally it needs to be for "more" than just gaming. IMHO. With that said, if that means "only Linux" (for example) to you, I'm...

    Linux market share passes 4% for first time

    Also, not too long ago, same numbers == AMD (<10%). Realize that AMD for all the "rah rah" hasn't broke 25% even on the desktop CPU space and of course much lower than that CPU overall. And even lower on overall GPU marketshare. We choose to "lift high" who we choose to lift high.

    Linux market share passes 4% for first time

    Or perhaps better, "It's another year of Linux!!" (which is a good thing)

    good cheap laser printer? with cheap toner?

    Yeah, I just ran out of toner on my new "guarded" HP laser, yeah, it costs over $800 to populate toner. That is, it's cheaper to chunk the whole printer into the garbage and get the starter cartridges that come with a new one. HP... needs to go away (forever).

    Linux market share passes 4% for first time

    Since I date back to the age of "native ports of games to Linux", not sure we'll see that again. I mean, the Linux community is so good at making foreign (as in, "violent" in nature) things run on it... it's amazing. However, there are are "things" that do run natively, but not any of those...

    Any Linux gaming experts willing to answer a n00b question?

    Proton DB is a good source to "know" with regards to "what can work" on Linux without issue: https://www.protondb.com/search?q=Pillars%20of%20Eternity

    Linux market share passes 4% for first time

    Just remember, the "paltry" number mean that millions and millions of people world wide are using Linux. And IMHO, that's pretty good when you're up against a monopoly provider. Think about it this way, the number of Linux users in the world is greater than many "favorite software application"...
