    Australian womens rights/anti-porn group gets thousands of games removed from steam by getting credit card companies to not honor purchases

    The question not being addressed here: Is this a crime? (having games with certain content) If no - what right do payment processors have to censor? There is no legal basis. If yes - remove the games - by location - where the content is forbidden by law. For example, in Saudi Arabia some...

    NVIDIA’s Jensen Huang Claims That Moore’s Law Is Now Dead, It’s Time For The Huang Law; Reveals Performance Is On-Track To “Double” In Just a Quarter

    My take is that Huang's law is already established: "The more you buy, the more you save!"

    AMD RX 9000-series livestream

    This looks like AMD execs would prefer to go have tiny revenue with decent margins rather than have rising revenue with low margins. It is what it is. The killer - no DLSS4. 7800XT was $100 cheaper than 4070 with extra ram, and AMD market share was halved basically over last year. Whether this...

    AMD RX 9000-series livestream

    AMD finds a way, they came close... if $50 cheaper, they could have left the market to correct. However, AMD would not be AMD if they did that.

    AMD Radeon RX 9070 and 9070 XT Official Performance Metrics Leaked, +42% 4K Performance Over Radeon RX 7900 GRE

    The question is - at which point do they start losing money with this product? at $449, it should be the best seller in a decade for AMD $499 - it would be a great seller $550 - running into Nvidia mindshare (GRE launch price) $599 - good, but not great $649 - sinking $699 - We have a repeat of...

    5090 Stolen In Transit

    Sid Meier's Civilization VII

    This time I am unlikely to buy with a deep sale either. Got CIV VI on a deep sale and meh, my TF2 crate that I sold to get it was better value. Waiting for a proper CIV IV clone for another decade.

    Ordered my $6,660.83 cent 5090

    You can get one 5090 used here for $12k.

    The 285k is embarrassing

    Bulldozer was at least cheap, and Apple benefits from reality distortion field. Intel has bulldozer level product with Intel pricing and noone to tell them that their reality distortion field is not working.

    AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT tipped to launch alongside FSR4 and Ryzen 9000X3D in late January

    NV can do whatever they want, if AMD ends up being good enough, they will only push Super launch earlier to be in 6 months to equal AMD and roll them on brand recognition for the rest, assuming that this will even be necessary.

    $2,500 RTX-5090 ( 60% faster than 4090 )

    I guess looks like less performance for less money than expected, so it is kind of a wash. Stolen from elsewhere: 26% faster 26% higher watt usage 26% higher msrp 26% bigger chip almost 26% more vram almost 26% higher nomenclature from 4090 to 5090 My immediate sentiment is that it could...

    What (if anything) do you all think will happen to Steam after Gabe dies?

    They will not do that immediately, they will run it into the ground first, and then sell for a quick buck. Check Tolkien estate, they are in the process of running it into the ground. It's inevitable, the way of the world. If we are lucky, there may be another generation of responsible...

    $2,500 RTX-5090 ( 60% faster than 4090 )

    This would indicate $1,499 price for the Asus variant before VAT, looks realistic in terms of listing. 5090 double that, maybe a bit under ie EUR 2,999 with VAT for cheap variants, if we are lucky. It may end up having a lower MSRP for unobtanium versions, but as no competition on the...
