    Cramer Hails Nvidia's 'Predictably Fabulous' Jensen Huang as a Visionary CEO

    And the facts are there are plenty of institutions purchasing instinct cards for mixed workloads. AMD cards are now competitive in this space. If you can't handle these sort of statements then feel free to ignore me. Personally I don't play favorites and think competition is actually a good...

    Cramer Hails Nvidia's 'Predictably Fabulous' Jensen Huang as a Visionary CEO

    I read that as "you should put us on ignore so you can't correct us on our Nvidia shilling" Don't worry guys, I don't post here much anyway.

    Cramer Hails Nvidia's 'Predictably Fabulous' Jensen Huang as a Visionary CEO

    I've already done the research and willing to bet I'm more experienced in this space than you are. The MI200 has slower performance in FP16 and int8 workloads but offers much more memory than the A100. Also the MI200 completely destroys Nvidia in FP64 workloads, although this is more relevant...

    Cramer Hails Nvidia's 'Predictably Fabulous' Jensen Huang as a Visionary CEO

    And? What's your point? How does the fact that consumer cards can run them take away from the fact that AMD also sells enterprise cards? Were you not aware that the Instinct line exists? I assumed hardware enthusiasts would be aware. My point is that the statement "in the business world...

    You're really splitting hairs here. Both AMD and Nvidia have consumer and professional/enterprise GPUs that can run these models.

    Cramer Hails Nvidia's 'Predictably Fabulous' Jensen Huang as a Visionary CEO

    AMD cards can run these models too. I've ran stable diffusion, YOLO object detection, and numerous chatbots on my 6700 XT and they all ran great.

    The price has gone down slightly for the 4TB model, as predicted. It's now $190. How low will it go?

    Windows is finally getting native RAR support + RIP Cortana

    Sounds like you just need to take a look at protondb for games that you're having issues with and enter the suggested arguments from the comments. The DX12 games I've played work great, and to be honest I'm scratching my head at your "20-50% performance losses compared to Windows" comment...

    Windows is finally getting native RAR support + RIP Cortana

    Linux. Besides a handful of multiplayer games that have incompatible anti-cheat software, it's been a great experience for me.

    TeamGroup 2TB NVMe TLC w/ DRAM $80

    My mistake, several Newegg reviews said it had dram so I assumed there was a newer revision or something. But yea it's still pretty good for the price.

    TeamGroup 2TB NVMe TLC w/ DRAM $80

    Yea I agree, I feel that prices might drop a little more, but not by much. I picked up the 2TB model because I can't imagine those will go much lower than $80!

    TeamGroup 2TB NVMe TLC w/ DRAM $80

    The model is MP34 which is highly regarded as one of the best value gen 3 drives. TLC, DRAM, high endurance, it ticks all the boxes. 4TB model also available for $200. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B095PMX6JS?tag=camelproducts-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&language=en_US

    Western Digital WD_BLACK SN770 NVMe SSD 2TB - $109.99

    I've never had an issue with Newegg, but have had several issues with Amazon in the past year alone. One reason why I highly prefer Newegg now is because they use UPS to ship. I've lost count of how many times Amazon has sent me an item with a damaged box because they can't be bothered to...

    SAPPHIRE RX 6800 XT $520

    Also if we completely ignore goodies, there's still the fact that the 6800 XT has 33% more VRAM which is more than just a goodie and might be a big factor in a year or two.

    UPDATE: ASRock RX 6950 XT $600

    Same, except I have a 6700xt. Multiple monitors with different resolutions and refresh rates, and everything works great. Low power consumption too. Some games actually run smoother in Linux compared to Windows. Also OBS hardware encoding works flawlessly. Life is good with Linux and AMD.

    Intel ARC A770/A750 Driver Update, Intel Claims Big Performance Gains!

    I'm not sure where the 90-100w comes from either. I've never experienced it. Just because some people are having that issue doesn't mean everyone is, we are evidence of that. But of course that doesn't stop some people from making blanket statements.

    7950X vs 7950X3D, which one and why?

    So do you think they nerfed the 5800X3D? Because that has lower clocks than the regular 5800X (out of necessity). Temps can be an issue with single chiplet 8 core parts because they have higher heat density, where as the 2 CCD parts spread the heat out over a wider area, allowing the cooler to...

    7950X vs 7950X3D, which one and why?

    Keep in mind the 5800X ran hot compared to the 5900X and 5950X since everything is concentrated into one die instead of two. 3D v-cache is more heat sensitive, so the 5800X3D had lower clocks as a result. Which is why I'm not surprised at all the 7800X3D will have lower clocks, I don't think...

    Newegg 5800x3d 308.99$ after instant credit and Free Game Code

    Unless you have a 165+ hz monitor, you won't notice the difference anyway. Even if you did, you'd still be hard pressed to notice the difference, lol

    AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU Review & Benchmarks: $700 Gaming Flagship

    TLDR If both gaming and productivity is important to you, then get the 7950X3D. If only productivity is important then get the regular 7950X. If only gaming is important then wait for the 7800X3D.

    AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU Review & Benchmarks: $700 Gaming Flagship

    Steve should have clarified this. He said the fast cores need to be "parked" while gaming to get the benefits of the 3D cache cores, which could be interpreted as they can't be used. But I do think the fast cores can do encoding or other things because if you look at the Core Utilization chart...

    Need to stick some i7-8700's (non-k) into something

    If you're not overclocking (non-k parts so I assume you aren't) and not using a dedicated GPU then the PSUs in those Dells or HPs should be perfectly fine.

    I don't use Windows 11 but I don't see why it wouldn't work. It has supported GPT partitions for a while now.

    SSD prices keep falling Patriot 2 GB $80, DRAM NVME added for Leven Brand

    It turns out Rescuezilla has gparted built in which can resize the drive after cloning it. Probably easier to just go with that since its built in and it works for both Windows and Linux installs. But yes there's different options out there.

    SSD prices keep falling Patriot 2 GB $80, DRAM NVME added for Leven Brand

    Sorry for the confusion. Clonezilla does have the ability to shrink/extend partitions to fit the destination drive when restoring from a backed up image, but it appears Rescuezilla does not have that feature as far as I can tell. I was under the impression that Rescuezilla was simply an easier...

    AMD admits to restraining chip supply to keep higher CPU and GPU prices

    Well chiplets finally forced Intel to move on from quad-core CPUs as the standard after being stuck on them for what felt like a decade.

    AMD admits to restraining chip supply to keep higher CPU and GPU prices

    AMD really changed the landscape when it comes to CPUs especially in the server department by offering more cores during a time when Intel was stagnant. Also AMD unlocked ECC memory in their consumer CPUs which was a game changer for home servers. Although I agree with another poster who said...

    Many cloning tools will expand it to fill the new drive. Clonezilla and Rescuezilla are free and open source options that can do this.

    Titanfall 2 Ultimate Edition $2.99 on Steam

    The official servers were taken down, but there's a community made mod called "Northstar" that opens up private servers. The game is still alive and well thanks to this. Honestly I stopped playing online shooters years ago.... except for this game. It's a gem for sure and for $3 it's a no brainer.

    They're great for the price. Their durability (TBW) is better than other budget drives in the same price range.

    2TB teamgroup SATA SSD $99

    I couldn't find anything about it which is why I asked. Only a few articles saying the opposite, that the prices will actually go down. Maybe next time you can post something helpful??
