For the vast majority of uses, yeah. There are very few situations where a 3080Ti would be useful but they exist... I have a realtime NN upscaling workflow that only needs about 3GB VRAM but loves bandwidth and fillrate which AD104 lacks compared...

I could definitely dig the 3090 FE but not the 3080 Ti. Memory bandwidth be damned - 4070S is better and has a real warranty.

RTX 3090 FE @ $699 RTX 3080Ti @ $599 Ignore if you're looking for regular gaming perf/$, this is for the niche use case weirdos doing ML stuff and ultra-high-rez image processing / rendering. 3080Ti > 4070S if memory bandwidth is a constraint...

I know someone who has seemingly been bitten by those crashes. Worse is it seems to degrade the processor over time and they get worse and worse. Eventually it's basically unusable under any kind of load. I think they're on their 3rd processor...

I just bought a block of Microsoft’s time to hold my hand through it. In 4 hours they identified what I had fucked up in my Intune and GPO that was preventing it from working and another 8 hours to fix it and send me on my way to make the final...

All, Back after a long hiatus. Selling a X3D and AM5 board. 7950X3D - $450 X670E Crosshair Hero - $450 Both for $850 I'll throw in 2x16GB DDR5-6000 to anyone who buys both! Thank you Heatware under blaitarch!

With how fast it goes it can be hard to keep up in that regard, streaming has the latest AV1, bluray is .264, UHD bluray is x265 I think. Dolby disney versus UHD bluray will often have each their advantage over the other, streaming can always...

It's weird cause I'm sad about this and think it's a shame but then I remember I haven't bought or watched a DVD in over 10 years. I've got a pretty sizeable library so if the apocalypse ever dies come I'll be able to watch several older movies.

SOLD

I loved the box artwork on the voodoos. They were the best lol

Mostly Nostalgia... last fall I build a Retro PC around my still working Voodoo 3 3000 AGP I bought back in high school... lol. Was fun to revisit some glide games on the real hardware, voodoo's dithering really was something else that...

Perhaps you are right, perhaps not. I personally have not yet seen edge force it's way back to a pdf viewer mode. However, I work in a plant with a corporate network so that is probably why. We use Teams, on drive and Office 365 and it mostly...

So you'd rather just get compromised?

I've paid for Windows many times over already, the same versions in fact. If Microsoft wants to keep shoving ads and other annoying crap into the OS, they don't need my money to pay for the privilege. And honestly Linux has come a long way, if...

This part I do not always understand. People are willing to spend stupid amounts of money on hardware, or on games, but nope! I am not paying for the core OS that lets everything even work and makes my computer usable..... If you hate MS that...

I know this applies to very few [H] people, but those of us who remember the glory days of not only a Microcenter but also a Fry's in close proximity, well the grumbling about Microcenter deals is now coming to an end. They're supposed to be...
