    New Night City Wire for 2077 Impressions 11-17-2020

    Watched a special edition night city wire that dropped showing Xbox x and Xbox S footage from the game. Some notes.. 1. The textures looked low res. (there is a reason follow along.) 2. The game looked interesting still but just... more cell shaded a feel than I expected. 3. No delay...

    Possible RTX 3080 Ti FE?

    Were you around 8 years ago saying the same thing about 4gb of ram? 4 years ago saying the same thing about 6gb of ram? 2 years ago saying the same thing about 8gb of ram.... And so on... Yea sure by the time there are several titles that can use more than 10gb of video memory new cards may...

    Assassin's Creed Valhalla Benchmark Test & Performance Analysis

    I find it interesting in the chart above that the 3080 out performed the 3090 even if only a couple frames. That's a big price jump for fewer frames.

    AMD's EPYC 7713 64-Core 128-Thread Zen 3 Server CPU Makes Monster Benchmark Debut

    Man I'm eyeing these Epyc CPU's for Vmware cluster rebuilds. Dual 32 core Epyc's... 128 threads a host... All with only 2 sockets of Vmware licensing. (Edit: per host) MmmmMmmm good.

    MS SQL Server in VMware Cluster

    No but the cost of doing a vsan cluster to maintain redundancy in a medium size deployment is very high and much higher risk. let me Put it to you this way.... Lets say you need just 30 TB of capacity for your SAN and you want it high speed. To get that with a VSAN cluster you will need 6...

    Radeon™ RX 6000 Partner Showcase Ep. 2: Godfall & Counterplay Games

    Doesn't look bad at all. But the draw distance on grass and such is pretty limited it seems. I noticed some snap in on ground clutter and grass in that video. I wonder if that was specific to that area/scene or what. Otherwise it looked very good. No real reflections done but nice shadows...

    Cyberpunk 2077 Delayed Again (Dec 10th now)

    You're reading the effect not the cause. They are delaying to fix bugs that would have otherwise trashed their metacricitc scores. So they are delaying to fix bugs and issues. So that way those bugs and issues don't detract from their metacritic scores.

    AMD’s RX 6000 GPUs to Boost Perf With Ryzen 5000 CPUs via Smart Memory Access

    Time shall tell. Amd is fairly new to being in a leader position. If reviews show they are actually in that position then its incumbent on them to profit from it in a way they as a company culture feel is best. We all know they can snub others if they want. It will be interesting to see...

    AMD’s RX 6000 GPUs to Boost Perf With Ryzen 5000 CPUs via Smart Memory Access

    Lol nobody is saying give it away. Licensing is far from a no profit solution. And it won't be cheap. If you read about it amd is doing this hand in hand with Microsoft.

    AMD’s RX 6000 GPUs to Boost Perf With Ryzen 5000 CPUs via Smart Memory Access

    Difference is AMD is known for licensing their tech to competitors. So Nvidia could license this from amd and have it on their cards too.

    [WCCF] [IgorsLab] Alleged performance benchmarks for the AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT "Big Navi" graphics card have been leaked out.

    No it isn't. Games that have dlss work with the Nvidia drivers. There is no hardware dlss running other than api calls to the driver by the games. Your Nvidia card doesn't do ai work unless you have a business card.

    Is there a limit of how many VMs you can run ?

    Also don't forget that if you are using vsphere there is a practical limit based on the size of your vsphere host that it will reliably support. it isn't a license limit so you can build one larger if needed but we're talking hundreds of hosts and thousands of VM's at that size level. Probably...

    MS SQL Server in VMware Cluster

    VMwares VSAn isn't that great for these types of deployments in my experience. The level of fault tolerance is less and the ability to loose data is in my experience worse. A solid Unity or like attached fiber storage will provide ample performance unless the databases are insanely large/busy.

    MS SQL Server in VMware Cluster

    That is an incorrect statement. If they have a full flash array with sub MS query times and IOP's in the millions or even just hundreds of thousands this is normally just fine for most databases. It all depends on the solution but a blanket that SAN's are less than direct attached SAS drives...

    Yea the issue is going to be finding an affordable hypervizor that will work with the hardware you have. Not to mention other needed items... like a USB port card so your GF can have her headset, keyboard, mouse, streaming camera, and other assorted hardware in there. You'll likely want a...

    My role is mostly work from home with 1-2 days in the office a week as I see fit. Really if work consolidated and made it so the people that need to be in the office had actual offices as opposed to cubical farms I'd be in the office more. The ability to focus and not have home based...

    Sony LISTENS to Voice Chats to Scan for 'TOXICITY' in Latest PS4 Update?!

    I say go for it. Ban the useless pieces of human trash that can't be civil. Or at least put them all in the same bucket. Let them go off screaming profanities at eachother and coming up with the worst threats like some kind of competition then swatting eachother. Do the world a favor.

    I just want a 3080 competitor on all levels and if it's faster at an equal price point. If its just equal at 50 to 100 bucks less. And I don't mean on paper I mean in real testing.

    NVIDIA's next-gen Titan RTX specs teased: 48GB GDDR6X

    Very few in the enterprise segment buy video cards only. Its a whole server replacement most of the time. Remember for enterprise hardware is the lesser of expenses. Support, and licensing... mostly licensing make up the bulk of thst upgrade spend.
