    Finally, considering how many years they were stuck on 14nm.

    Sindalis replied to the thread Blizzard Cancels Blizzcon.
    2022 and 2023 were post covid years on all events. Pretty much every event had huge problems. 22 was a write off, 23 it was a crap shoot on how bad it was going to be. In short, everyone forgot how to event after the pandemic, and it wasn't...

    Sindalis replied to the thread Radeon RX 7900 GRE Review.
    RDNA4 won't have a top end card, highest will be Navi 48. Rumored to be around 7900 XT performance. More than likely they are going to package this in a "8800 XT" build for around 400-500$ Thus if you need a GPU now, 7900 GRE / XT / XTX are not...

    I guess we have a difference in opinion then. I have no issue with zero rate billing but still would like all my traffic to be treated equally. Which is what I have referred to as net neutrality. I have been educated now that other places are...

    Is no say comcast count not as data in the montly total some service like their own IPTV ? Zero rate billing has nothing to do with net neutrality. as long as the traffic is treated equally, thats all that matters. Zero rate billing is the...

    The funny thing is that they (the big companies) are vehemently opposing net neutrality, even though they could use it to really screw over small providers. In short, your example is right, without net neutrality, the ISP could prioritize...

    LukeTbk OK I see where your coming from now. Sadly though, no, upscalers don't work that way. You don't get a 'better' image by rendering at a lower resolution and then using an upscaler to fill in the rest. They are not actually improving the...

    LukeTbk To me what your describing is not upscaling tech, its AI enhancement to existing images. To my understanding, upscaling is the way to render a frame at a lower resolution and 'upscale' it to display natively at a higher resolution. It...

    I'm not getting what your saying here. If I'm reading this right I'm thinking you and I have a fundamental difference in understanding of what tech like DLSS and FSR are and why are they used. If you think about it, what DLSS and FSR do is 'make...

    Sindalis replied to the thread New Rig Video Card help.
    LukeTbk I am referring to rendering native. Any upscaling tech (DLSS or FSR) has its downsides compared to native rendering (latency, loss of fidelity, ect) and personally, I spend a lot of money to have things look pretty, not to have a slightly...

    If i may offer a differing opinion. the 4070 ti super reviews have shown it to be a lackluster product. https://www.techspot.com/review/2793-nvidia-geforce-rtx-4070-ti-super/ It's not a 4080, and it sounds like you don't upgrade very often...

    No it happens all the time in the US, and is super common with electronics. Have a look at TVs, you'll find they are the same price on Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, etc. The reason is agency pricing: That's where the manufacturer says "You need to...

    This must be a thing specific to China. I don't believe its legal in the US to set price floor's like this. Once the product is sold to a retailer, right of first sale states that they can do whatever they want with it, including resell it for...

    Sindalis replied to the thread official AFMF drivers 24.1.1.
    do we know if 24.2.1 is going to get an official release or what the next major driver release will be?

    AI has some extremely promising benefits. As an example. AI writes better marketing copy than marketers. It can spit out pages and pages of copy with very few issues. The difference being instead of the marketer needing to make up copy, instead...
