    Gamer Pairs RTX 3090 With RTX 3050 to Offload Frame Generation Work

    With PCIe 4/5 bandwidth, this might work really well. PCIe is bi-directional simultaneously. PCIe4 can be transmitting 31.5GB/s and receiving 31.5GB/s at the same time. And most videos where they investigate the impact of using older PCIe generations, it is usually 1.5% to 2.5% impact. Which...

    FSR4 support in most games

    They are only talking about the FrameGen portion, not the upscaling. The copium is real... Just don't use Frame Gen. ************************** The issue detailed in Hardware Unboxed video looks like it should be something AMD can solve in Software. So wtf haven't they? They don't give a...

    Creative Launches Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe Sound Card

    I really wanted this to be great... but I doubt it can power my 250 ohm DT 770 Pros. I'll stick with my Fiio K7. 0 complaints with it after about 1 year.

    Nvidia RTX 4090 power connectors melting?

    Oh the connector could be better no doubt. More idiot proof, since it is so high current. There are examples of the 8-pin connector's melting as well. So, again, be careful, it will be fine. I like German Muscles' suggested connectors, those look stout. Wires would be stiffer... but capable.

    Nvidia RTX 4090 power connectors melting?

    I've taken several thermal images of mine and never had a heat issue with the connector. Use common sense, don't put pulling stress on the connector, you will be fine.

    MSI’s RTX 5090 Lightning shatters GPU records before launch — 40-phase VRAM and dual 12V-2x6 connectors turn heads on upcoming overclocking monster

    $5200 yikes But I wouldn't be surprised if that is the top card for the next 2+ years... And the 6090 is probably late 2027 or even 2028 before we might get them.

    Nvidia Throws Gamers Under the AI Bus

    If the Engineering costs are high enough, it makes no sense to make new models when there isn't enough parts (memory) to manufacture enough to make it worthwhile. If the development costs have already been expended, could simply be delaying production/release as there is insufficient memory...

    Data center in Space

    They already know that for it to be feasible they have to get the launch costs down to $200 per kilogram. it's $1000 or more currently. At some point it likely will be feasible, but probably a decade off. If they design it such that robots can replace parts, I bet they can make it work...

    The reddit post seems to point to enabling PhysX on a per-game basis, so how does it get enabled in a global way such that GPU-Z recognizes it is present?
