    Moores Law podcast has stated that the 5090 will launch this Fall, and to expect a 50 ish % increase in Raster vs the 4090 , and a 85% , real world, in Raytracing performance. I am going to get a 5090FE asap.

    Iptorrent Invites

    Good day gentleman. I was gifted a invite a few years back, and got my share up to 5.8 over 1.5 terabytes uploaded on IPTorrents. The computer that was on was stolen last Fall and since its been some 4 + months I cannot log in. I am hoping someone here might be able to help me again in this...

    Warm? PNY RTX 4090 = $1,599.99 @ Best Buy

    My only issue with PNY and ZOTAC(and most of them really),is the length of the cards,far too big for my ITX builds,decent price though. 1st world problems.

    Immortals of Aveum

    The 'General' is loosely based off a Studio dev,that chopped his junk off during the games making,not one but two. The game has a second character based off a 2nd trans man who chopped his junk off,both activists who work for the place still.

    Immortals of Aveum

    I refunded it 1 hr 50 minutes in. Excellent graphics,bad writing. Very annoying main and side characters.

    Hogwarts Legacy

    UE5 games are the same or worse,both are crap coded. Sweeney ain't all that..

    Gigabyte's response to poorly made GPUs is informative and unfortunate

    Would you use Opera GX?

    Stopped using it several years ago for like reasons,would never go back. I use SR Ware IRON 64bit. Stopped Brave after years, I use a smaller search engine recommended by Rob Braxman and Ed from The Outer Light. both are net security extremists.both are great folks.

    Gamers Nexus vs LinusTechTips: Smackdown

    I watched both, Craft live. Both got details wrong. Key ones,they both glossed over. Both which slightly put Linus in a better light. I have lost respect for both,especially Craft,I thought he would report on this better. Boy was I,and he wrong. Great posts,you've got better ethics then most it...

    Nvidia making 1,000% profit on H100 accelerators

    Same here,too much BG3,in Chapter 3 now. The cut down AD103 is what the 4080 uses,not the AD102. 9728/112/304/76/304, out of 10752/120/336/84/336. Your posts are always very informative,cheers.

    Any happy 4080 owners here?

    I agree and never said he didn't greatly help take the company to its heights ,but NVDA has tens of thousands of brilliant engineers ,Jenson is the face,little more at this point,a very bombastic tone deaf one. He doesn't design the chips,or make them. AI, I predict ,is just another dot com...

    RTX 5xxx / RX 8xxx speculation

    Card prices will stay where they are,even as 3nm $ goes up over 4nm by, allegedly as much as 25%. You can only bleed folks so much, NVDA isn't insane. I think MLID is half right about reticle size,as NVDA can stack in layers to get past that max size as they have done repeatedly in the past...

    Any happy 4080 owners here?

    I agree , you might, I still firmly believe the man is a narcissist pure and simple. Conceit does not begin to come within a lightyear of the behavior he has shown in the last few years,publicly; especially exhibited by Jenson at Computex 23. Your free to disagree. I am a longtime ( 2007 ) share...

    ASUS GPU's cost more then alternatives

    Zotac is a decent option.

    Any happy 4080 owners here?

    I bought my FE open box for 1019 and I am very happy with it. Its pricy at 1200,but not outrageous by any means, imho. Everyone is free to disagree. My issue is that a narcissist (watch Jensons Taipei presentation this year for full confirmation) worth 26 BILLION USD is the sole decider of video...

    I think Stever handled tt well in the video, very well,as did HUB in the new podcast today. LTTs many issues span back at least 3 + years beyond what GN Showed.

    Renpho Eye Massager

    Same here when I used to use them way back. I have been legally blind in both eyes since early 2013. Glaucoma and cataracts in both eyes,and a more recently diagnosed(2019) detaching retinal wall in my left eye. My current desktop uses a black background with bright orange text and fonts set...

    Cowboy Beebop live action at Netflix!

    Its made by MarxistFlix,so it will be agitprop at best. I will stick to my 6 OG Bandai DVD's.

    Apple will remotely install software to scan all US phones for child sex abuse images

    And as Project Veritas has endlessly proven, BigTech Corps are over flowing with individual's with malicious intent galore.

    Apple will remotely install software to scan all US phones for child sex abuse images

    Next, Apple will be scanning photos for "extremism", "protests", scanning texts for "wrongthink", etc. etc. Wife and I both gave up our ISpy phones back in 2015. Apple is evil.

    Reverse engineering generative models from a single deepfake image

    I can see a world coming soon where one can hire mercenaries to create Deepfakes to help murderers get off,or to frame people for felonies as the tech gets more sophisticated. Sci Fi will continue to become real life at warp speed.

    GPU prices — is the worst behind us ?

    My wife and I converted our 401k and Stocks into Crypto,and mostly Bitcoin years ago. Its been wildly successful.

    Exactly. As I warned here last summer,inflation is about to again tear most a new a hole in a big way,beyond what has already happened. Its going to be truly Biblical.
