Ya'll have too much time to mess with that shit
windows search is odd. Sometimes it only finds certain programs when you fully type them out
Lets see what she can do.
what a box
Double the power bill and dissapoint

Why though
need to upgrade from my 8700k. dont wanna beta test 10nm/ddr5.
8core/thread is perfect for what I wanna do. Gaming/streaming.
Stability.
But you didn’t need to upgrade
the need to upgrade depends on the user lol @pale sigil
Leo has spent some time with some Intel samples for launch today, and our first article (with more coming soon) features the i9 11900k. It's certainly an interesting step for Intel, and one that LEO feels isn't even a step forward. The pricing? Well its currently around £550 in the UK, which doesn't make a whole lot of sense. If you can get the ...
Ive seen them. I want the benefits of 11 gen lol.
I game at 1440p and want PCIe Gen 4
never said i wanted PCIE gen4 for gaming. @prisma crag got for retail.
Then this seems poorly worded or contradictory.
https://imaginenext.ingrammicro.com/integrated-solutions/5-applications-for-pci-express-4-0 @reef tundra
just a quick article i found for benefits of gen 4
My point was that it wasn't just for gaming. 1440p will not really benefit from upgrade from 8700k.
Ill get a okay boost to fps which is cool, but ill also be able to stream better.
amd is a pretty bad ux if you are doing alot of stuff
Like?
want gen 4? gotta be careful what board you buy
gigabyte at least is known to not work (sometimes)
Has nothing to do with amd though
intel requires qc on their boards
I'd yoj wanted the fastest you get amd
I dont want to beta test 10nm/ddr5
Rn they are murdering the i9
no
amd is the fastest oob experience
Intel is insanely awful with boost and oc on the i9
?
Insane power draw and temps
it can def OC. 5.3. Temps are fine if you have a good cooler*
you can overclock them super far
and when you dont run a great cooler it does shit

AIO 360 are better 🙂
noctua is just quiet
which I have
not super performant
thing is on liquid cooling you can get 300w cooled ultra easy
okay i dont agree with him on noctua
they make great air coolers/fans
great yes
@prisma crag source/proof?
Top left
only advantage of noctua is how insanely quiet they are
they have one of the best 120mm fans out rn lol
and they perform sufficiently for non overclocked operation on pretty much any processor
one of
depends on the processor
@pale sigil mmm not really. Cant agree with that
And the d12
d12 is awful
u12a tho is mega expensive
and isnt exactly better than muuuch cheaper coolers
@pale sigil we talking about Noctua top of the line ones haha
the fuma 2 is the performance of the d14 and quieter than both
Is also insanely good
for air*
oh it was the u12s not the d12 that was shit
i made the mistake of purchasing a u12s
gets entirely slaughtered by the fuma
But the U12s is still a beast lol
the u12s is around the same at 220w and the d15 is only 250w
the alf ii 360 can handle well over 400w with a large enough cpu
the 280 can handle 300w just fine
I mean at the end of the day, its true Intel uses a lot more power and produces a lot more heat. But its not like this generation is worse than previous gens in this factor. Basically the same if not a little better.
It literally is
I have an expensive AIO... sooo im good 🙂
power draw is the same
temps are pretty much the same
the difference is that people are rn comparing overclocked to stock numbers
which is like uh
why?
Literal meme
its not the strongest launch. Ill give you that, but has its uses. Def not meme tier.
sure it uses alot of power
but it uses the same amount of power as my 9900k
and its runing avx512 instead of mere avx2
yes it can run avx512 at full clock speed
I don't get why you go ahead with a processor literally everyone is saying don't
Literally everyone
It's a terrible launch
https://www.reddit.com/r/overclocking/comments/mghwsi/asus_maximus_13_and_rocket_lake_the_rules_have/ -- A good read on the benefits of this architecture. (little lengthy though.)
TLDR - Stability.
Hehe I made the mistake of going skylake and beta testing dde4
name a review who says not to buy who is specifically talking towards enthusiasts who are willing to max out the performance of their system with overclocking and stuff

skylake wasnt ddr4 beta testing lel
skylake was the 3rd ddr4 release
first was x99 which was a beta test
second was bristol ridge
and well
Like kithuru et
bristol ridge was a meme and a half
"The first DDR4-compatible desktop CPU hit the consumer market August 29 with the launch of Haswell-E, Intel’s Core i7 high-end desktop processor."
wait no not bristol ridge
carrizo
oh no it was bristol ridge
carrizo was bristol ridge backported
god bristol ridge was such a shit product
Afaik
i forget the name of the laptop versions
Skylake was the mainstream version for ddr4
yeup
it was the first mainstream ddr4 platform that functioned
I'll give amd credit, the I5 isn't terrible minus its power draw
Price wise
It's a good deal
£250
Ooft
Nvm
I got my 7700k for £250

Tbf significantly less cores
And other stuff
AMD = Stock issues 
5600x doesnt particularly exist and the 5800x is more expensive than the 11900k
But also its an issue because well they are actually a lot better
Overall
5600x is insanely common
The fuck
its out of stock everywhere...
@prisma crag gear 1/2?
gear 1
Lol tbf Intel only sells at this price
Because amd shot them up the ass but again
You're getting less....
🤷♂️ intel sells at whatever price they want
You're basically getting an I7+
gear 1 clock is gonna keep going up
3 weeks ago there was a dude who wasnt able to get 3200
Temps?
i mean that is an apex lel
well a 360 rad is on the higher end of cooling lol
Idk were you are but the 5600x is pretty much always in stock in most places now
I can buy one right now
how about 5800x LUL
5800x is easy stock cause of the price
5600x and 5900x arent in stock in the us
ahh okay
Haha that's bizare
5600x is poof
We haven't had stock issues since Feb
I prob not even that
Around dec
GPUs are still an issue tho ofc
@pale sigil If you actually care, I would encourage you read over the reddit article to the the benefits of the architecture. Def not a meme.
oh no it definetly is a meme dan
@astral haven in what way?
x. X
🤷♂️ memes are made by the people and the people decided it would be a meme
lol
thats your opinion
sure its a popular opinion but its an opinion not a fact
and the fact of the matter is the price is what people would pay for it
I mean
I guess everyone is wrong

As for the reddit post I'll read it tomoz
But benchmarks etc say otherwise
fool me once shame on you
full me twice shame on me
That's fact
the place for radeon is on a shelf and the place for ryzen is in a generic system
Ryzen isn't perfect either
I felt like they really pooed themselves with pricing
And core count
ryzen is great when all other hardware in your system is known good
however if any of your hardware is janky, your system goes down
Your point is stupid, if you're going for such an expensive cpu you're not going to be a fool and cheap out on other parts
Yes, cheaper motherboards cause most issues
not on intel 🤷♂️
in what way
in what way
at least if you buy a board that says it works you know itll work
Haha I wanted to escape skylake
If im being honest
Motherboard was capped ram speed wise
And other stuff
i am running 4 skylake systems in this house
3 of which i consider critical and havent failed once
I mean 5 years fair enough
Haha
But like
Not everyone does that
Like I'll prob end up going next gen or getting a 5800x down the line
friend bought a brand new motherboard 3 years ago with a brand new cpu released alongside the board and it didnt work
Because I'm a pleb
board was on a bios that didnt work
but also this
what are you talking about with this
nah his roommate lent him a new processor and it worked and flashed fine
but when he put his cpu in it wouldnt run
rmad the board and the second one worked fine
2133
couldnt enable xmp tho or it would crash
If I remember correctly
yes claire non overclockable boards dont let you overclock ram
Was the limit for skylake
thats most of the reason they are so reliable
all skylake can run their max capacity at their rated speed
Rmemeber when they didn't like people not having to pay a premium to overclock? 
Nonsense
You shouldn't be capped
🤷♂️ i work for a computer retailer
and i dread to sell all of my current amd machines
And?
because i know they will come back
@astral haven tryna hook a brotha up?
I just think you're talking out of bad experience more than anything
yes i am
but i have aloooot more experience with intel machines lel
and alot fewer issues
But in reality there is no one is worse than the other
I've had awful experiences both sides
And this time around j went amd for the firdt time in a long long time
the problem is that in reality the issues are 50/50
but intel has more systems than amd by a factor of 10
so intel should have at least 10x more issues
but no
its still about 50 50
over the past 10 years, 95% of the machines sold were intel
now there are alot of machines being replaced rn
but intel is still selling 80% of the new systems
puget isnt the mass market
at all
im talking client segment
now i dunno if gambling machines count as client segment
but billboards dont
Newest ryzen and last gen really dominated the market
billboards are 99% intel
So idk what you're talking about
gambling machines are 80% amd
dominated what market
heres the thing
50% of a small market is good for amd but not a large number of cpus in total
there are only 30-40 million ryzen machines in total
which is good and all
Pretty much most stores sell more amd than Intel by a shit ton
no
Especially in 2020
no
most stores sell more amd BOXED CPUS
which is a good market to have
but its not a high volume market
boxed cpus are like 1-2 million a year
which is like nothing
those boxed cpus are very very profitable for amd
but not really as much for intel
so while its good for amd that amd is getting that market
its really not a problem for intel
even amd doesnt sell most of their cpus boxed
Before the new chips even came out
Amd was making a dent
well thats not exactly true is it
Just one store alone...
One of the biggest
Same situation in others
Thing is lad
Intel sell their cpus in office pcs
Amd has never really got into that market
We are purely talking about it from a buying the cpu itself
no we arent lol
ive been saying this entire time that boxed cpus are a tiny market
Again before current gen
and wanna know a secret?
intels boxed sales have stayed very constant over this entire time
But we've been talking about this sort of situation
"I'd say 100% of the gain came from the high end for them, because Intel's high end was flat and AMD's high end grew, while Intel's entry-level business out-grew AMD's. Intel's i3/Pentium/Celeron grew very strongly and if you limited the share to just entry-level, Intel would have gained in the third quarter." from literally the article you linked
This all started because the I9 is a meme to buy
🤷♂️ intel doesnt care what you think
exactly
remember the days when it was just an i7 with hyperthreading and a slightly higher boost?
And that it hasn't even made a dent against Intel

When in reality they compete to the point they are better in a bunch of ways
Like why would Intel release such an I9
intel has been selling record numbers of cpus and making record profits every quarter for the past 10? quarters
and this is why they are releasing whatever
and intel isnt moving
To the point Intel are lacking
And started changing
Purely because of amd
Yet this gen they lacked a good offering
All they did was cut prices and give less
its true that rocket wouldnt have released if it werent for amd
but thats the only one
I have no doubt next gen
Will be pretty good
None at all
But the 11th gen i9
Is a complete joke
And a mockery
rocket was their fastest cpu dev cycle in the history of the company and it was started end of 2018 begining of 2019
If intel stagnates while amd is gaining more and more of the share. Intel is in huge problems. And if it stays that way Intel will no longer have the highest market share, but amd
And the powerdraw simply isn't acceptable
true, it's become an issue for mobile vendors like apple
there have only been 2 reactionary products from intel
rocket and xeon 9000 series
and they're looking elsewhere
Intel in general have been pretty pathetic
Apple silicon is solid proof of that
Since amd scared them
this is your opinion and isnt really shared by oems
I mean have you seen their press conferences or w. E they call it
this is your opinion and same story
because AMD has some pretty pog chips tbh
Compilers hate the new bs standards they are pushing
🤷♂️ marketing departments are incompetent
wheels go round
Exactly my point
They even tried the whole amd are slower etc and got shut down fast
They need to stfu and release an actuality competitive product
still havent adressed a single statement ive made...
Instead of recycling the same shit
or at least price it for the performance against competitors
they do
idk
Also yes tbf oems don't give a shit about power draw
no
intel prices here are odd this time around
the oems think the power draw is fine
AMD is somehow cheaper
That's what they've done with the I5 and I7
you know why?
because it is actually fine if you follow spec
But offered no real improvement
to OEMs?
prices have gone up lel
Intel I mean
rocket lake is alot more expensive than comet was
Intel went up ages ago...
every year prices go up
I5 here for last gen were £280-300
anyone unhappy about avx512 is unhappy because they know it is crazy fast
This gen they are £230-250
heres the thing
It is Linus Torvalds. The one that made the Linux kernel.
linus is a whiner not a doer
ew
he knows very little about hardware design
that is a headache and a half, locke
and his optimization work is very sad
Lad, you need to know about hardware design to make a kernel
he knows enough about how processors are supposed to work
but heres the thing that most people (linus included) dont understand

and anyone trashing on avx512 is guaranteed to be one of those people
nighty night cal
have a good night
avx512 doesnt use any additional space on the die for compute
literally all it adds is a few registers
all the compute performance from avx512 was already available in the processor even if you dont add avx512
all that 512 allows you to do is properly use whats available
the same is true for avx
same is true for avx 2
same is true for sse
AVX-512 causes a frequency throttling even greater than its predecessors, causing a penalty for mixed workloads. The additional downclocking is triggered by the 512-bit width of vectors, and using the 256-bit part of AVX-512 (AVX-512VL) does not trigger it. As a result, gcc and clang default to prefer using the 256-bit vectors.
they all are just allowing the program to go straight to the hardware in the smallest size possible
avx512 runs at full speed on rocketlake
ice did have some minor downclocking tho
previous gens did have signficant downclocking which is true, but intel realized there wasnt any point in doing that any more
The point was that using the AVX instruction generated more heat
and?
it did the same amount of work per unit heat
except thats not true
since it does more work per unit heat
Maybe you dont want to trigger the thermal runaway protection
🤷♂️ thats not a problem in really any system any more
https://images.anandtech.com/graphs/graph16495/122770.png
this is the reason that avx512 exists
its stupid how fast it is
and heres the most awesome part
when its not fast
it doesnt generate as much heat
thanks physics
He's using a self-built TR machine
So, looking good in benchmarks 
iirc he didnt have to deal with the early threadrippers and just got a 3970x
If you want to do a fuckton of 3D Particle movements that is prime work for a GPU to offload to...
find me a gpu with 128gb of vram
and thats a gpu
not multiple gpus
because multiple gpus means slower memory
You can swap out data with the GPU?
not anywhere near fast enough
PCIe 6 soon
ye
but by then we will have ddr5 on cpus and ddr5 is gonna be over 100GB/s on a dual channel memory bus
Anyway, AMD made a GPU with up to 2TB? of flash memory
nope
amd lied
its literally just normal pcie ssds, an off the shelf pcie switch, and not even special software
You mean the system memeory which the GPU can acces with PCIe5?
pcie 5 is ~50GB/s
for x16
the cpu has double the speed to access that on a consumer platform
and remember panda
the floating point perf of avx 512 is weak and yet its still pretty much the same as any gpu of its price range
the big boy flops come from int performance which gpus pretty much ignore
If it's so good, then why does it see so little use?
I'll believe it once it becomes commonplace in software to require a CPU with AVX512
most of the computers sold in the last year had avx512
once that hits 25% of the total market, more common software will appear
like why do cpus have 256 bit avx lel
i low key want a vfe
but its pretty low key
Because intel forced it in
naaaah
yea nvidia is trying to scoot away from reliance on fast cpus
"you dont like our cpus?"
"well why dont we get rid of the cpu"
CPUs are not meant for repetitive jobs, but where context switching is common and happens a lot. AVX512 has proven terrible for performance with that
avx512 performance isnt exactly related to context switching perf lel
It is because you are a cpu
So, a DPU is just a marketing plush for a CPU and a network chip on an add-in board? Nice
yea its alot more complicated than that
no you dont understand panda
context switching performance is independent from avx performance
maybe the cpus are bad at context switching, but thats the fault of the cpu for not being able to move around the data fast enough 🤷♂️
and even with that its still plenty fast
big problem atm is the limited bandwidth available on the cache, and rkl has some fancy tricks in the registers to try to help with that
Intel awkwardly forgot to release graphics drivers for Rocket Lake
https://t.co/WHXsEUqSWF


granted, should only use them for debug or pass through anyway
still a fucking joke
when are the drivers coming? "Few weeks from now" 
Intel Windows graphics drivers are Pepega anyway
you should still have something on launch at least
Just be part of the press loool 4Head
Before switching to linux on my desktop I did use the igp for video out.
As nvidia drivers don't downclock fully when hooking up 3 or more monitors I had 2 of them I don't generally game on hooked up to the igp.
On linux the propriatary nvidia drivers do not work well with other drivers so I switched back just connecting the gpu and making sure to disable the 0rpm mode by changing the fan curve.
Having 0 rpm enabled would result in them spinning up about twice a minute which gets annoying pretty fast / is not good for the fans.
all the poor laptop folk
This is awkward
Evga have to pay duties etc
And they haven't responded etc
And I only have 2 days to reach out

You get your money and your product back huraaah
EVGA will not pay their taxes under any way
cost saving measure
Afaik I won't be refunded the shipping I paid
You live in Europe?
UK
wha
Idk what your taxes is etc
If I was to send an item for £80
How much would you be paying
Evga being a pita
depends on the item
Psu
You might be able to leverage European warranty law. But it is applicable to retailer. which has to based somewhere in the European Union, UK gets some special treatment maybe its complex
Brexit happened.
wtf the difference?
oh
playstation and xbox
why pay so much for console only headphones?
they work on pc aswell
its just if u want it for console ull have to buy the one for ur console
hmm, I need to see how they connect to computer
aux or spdif
yeh
the amp
oohh hm
its basically the earcup controls as a seperate board
u plug the headset into it and the mixamp pro goes to ur pc
it doesnt affect audio quality?
no amp really effects quality
unless u use shitty amps
it just amplifies low power audio signals to high power ones
so that for example high ohmage headphones can be driven at higher volumes
ooohh
Might still apply due to the Free Trade Agreement. Which specifically mentions to include consumer rights
well
i mean
i had to pay shit tons of taxes
and fill out paperwork
to get my w1 proto from cal
doesnt really shout free trade to me
audio quality depends on the filtering done and the audio device
so good headphones, good prefilter, preamps
Its a nightmare to even go through the press document versions of. Pretty much its, both laws apply, be kind bye bye. we fucked up massivally. fisheries brah bah brah we promise to not fuck eachother over but here is a step by step how you can abuse this system. lalala
Both are shit
also it mentions that the UK will have no govermental power in the EU. and something about climate goals
As of right now we still follow EU laws
As they are the most comprehensive
But atleast they UK wont have to pay those pesky membership fees
For just the economic damage multiple orders above the membershipfees they ever paid they can save that money
Last the Brits fucked up this hard an entire country came to existance
cant speak for the tr40 cabled only got the a50 gen4 and im so far really happy with it
no
oh, to the base
yes
Do they need the base to function?
yes
do they have a reciever for connecting to pc?
the base
def doesnt use wifi in my case
🤔
or they just use wifi cause people cant deal with terms like cleernet
i mean how many wireless protocols and terms does the average gamer know
ya
wifi and bluetooth
and bluetooth is already a stretch
Maybe the transmitters being 2.4Ghz?
it uses 2.5ghz afaik
oh lordy....MICRO USB
thats just power for the base
audio is aux or spdif as i said
altho i do dislike the choice of micro usb on the headset
but then again they arent that new and next gen a50s will prob use usb c
and should anyone here be insane enough to buy a50s i do recommend installing the ZaliaS Omni presets for the EQ
I dont like the design of the mic on the a40tr
@neat oriole
damn the mic is good on these
Better be for them prices
its not really
Find out if the new 2019 A40 TR headset is great for gaming in this review + a detailed mic test!

Hello yes
Tell them off pls
Gaming headsets suck y’all
u can literally hear how shit the microphone is
compared to a simple mic on a desk arm
All wireless headsets have shit mics
these ones arent wireless
Astros are also pretty garbage imo

He has a better chance to make his memes become a good mic
Did you know every lighter with a piezo-igniter has a microphone component inside??!!!

i thought IE stands for internet exploder
Microsoft edge is when you need to cut something
What is that even supposed to mean?
ah I forgot about the intel scavenger hunt, now its too late to even see what the prizes were rip
Also Edge now runs on Chromium is actually kinda decent. Nothing inherently wrong with it compared to the competition 🤷♂️
Ah yes, the 10-y/o humor, gotcha 
nah, its bleeding edge

nice
aside from different resolutions not really
unless you go to some niche product with flawed sdk
I meant the sdk for the headset
oculus/htc/index/pimax all pretty much work, so I would assume HP has some issue that arent fixed yet
but there shouldn't really be much to it
Intel has updated their mainstream, desktop product line with several new 11th Gen Intel Core processors. These CPUs offer higher performance per clock than earlier generations, making them well suited for single- and lightly-threaded workloads.
We've gathered the hard-working Labs Lads together to go over the features and benefits of this new ...
GDM is having issues now....
the screen stays the background color but I dont see anything else like the profile or password box but it stills works and login to gnome desktop fine
Yeah, I should do that :/
this mean it worked?
oh
this thing?
Wrong monitor but lightdm is working
Wait no it's not
So, it really amounts to nothing
It boots into this screen.....
Not
I reverted back to GDM
It's still blank but it works
and it took me to that blank screen
hm?
yep
GDM works but nothing is displayed to the screen
its been that way since the past week
but sometimes it does show up
Windows takes a long time to get to the login screen for me after the logo appears on screen
this looks all good
easy fix for that is not having a login
I have
xd
yeh! it can see even the file names you open :D
amazing
microsoft know you opened any file at any time
you dont have the starting bit location for your programs memorized and type the 64bit address in every time?
smh
GDM works fine if I let grub timeout
But if I hit enter in grub to skip the 5 second wait time then it doesn't appear
Wot tf
Oh hey.....
It's on the wrong screen again but it's working now? Wtf
I reinstalled it
Neither did I until this week
how I make it appear on the right screen?
oh.. it appears on display 1
but display 1 isnt my primary one
hdmi
display 2 is DP
lemme look at the port location then hang on xd
I think the DP is the furthest from the PCIE
cause everything uses the display 2 such as the boot messages and OS logos and splash screens ETC
Windows also uses display 1 for login also, so its not a Linux thing
Seems login managers like HDMI better than DP
it does display on both but only the login box shows on display 1
hmm ok
it just happened like that for me
I dont change things like that lel
how you install a desktop by accident?
wot
now it just looks like ive spammed TF out of this channel
wish granted. if you have any tech questions please ask fleimi hes the only authoritive figure here
it was directed at me
what are u talking about
xd
smh lana always spamming without end
Woulda thought the real solution to all these troubles would be distro hopping
I dont distro hop anymore :') I have the same OS on my laptop too but im using Plasma DE on that
So now the DE hopping starts?
Nah xd
^^ basically yes
If I get am AMD GPU, imma only use Plasma
Cause I prefer it to gnome
well you guys have fun. idk any of these tech terms so imma go play outside with the other kids
Plasma doesnt like Nvidia drivers, some games I play crash after a while
whispers evilly @wheat plume geeeet Windoooows.
I do...Dual boot boi
ew no
to pull new changes from a git repo, do I use pull? cause it gave me an error
Well obviously since that's what you want to do
question
Well yeah it tells you exactly what to do
I dont want to commit them, cause its not my repo, i cloned a theme repo
Then stash them with a git stash pull changes then pop them back in git stash pop
I think you should watch a tutorial on how to git so you dont end up accidentally deleting something at this rate
Ill just reclone the repo
I can feel big problems coming up in the future...
@wheat plume if you are going to use git, read up on it, it wont be pretty otherwise.
Like for real.
Dont trial & error this.
Anyone has experience with atmel start? Have two issues with it atm, one probably from being blind

I don't like how the narrative has shifted to "gpus are so rare" instead of "demand has exploded so much"
it's related but not the same
still, the result is GPUs not in consumer hands
and leading to people getting desperate enough to do this
but they are, there just a lot more who want them now
I read this 4 times and I still dont understand wtf it is trying to say 
Please explain it to me lol
people, are getting paid well above minimum wage
to stand in line
uh
wut
Why?
But what does standing in line has to do with it?
exactly that
which is a real wtf moment
just buy one GPU for your personal rig
you don't need 3
or 5
or a shipping crate full of them
curses
I forgot life revolves around making capital to sustain a lifestyle
It’s true lot of people don’t realize how many people already got GPU, however even though demand is higher, supply is smaller than usually because of global chip shortage, even though not that much.
Most people who have a lot of money just want to get more money for the same of making more money - it is like trying to get a high-score.
ew
I am not joking
no, supply is not really shorter
I'm aware you aren't, and that bothers me
Well, not entirely sure but I think it is bit lower than usual with the shortage stuff, but may be wrong.
from the steam hardware survey we have about 3.5 million rtx30 cards on steam pcs
My friend works as a CMO in one pretty big local company and sometimes gets in contact with those people - basically they see stock market, trading and making money as one big video game.
that is not a shortage that is a higher number than previous launches
wtf
that's people's lives you're betting on
They dont even realize it
🤮
It is like asking people to watch with each step for ants...
THAT is how much the money elevates them above normal people.
absolutely disgusting
But true
sadly
Also the difference is so huge that these people often dont even realize what conditions a lot of normal people live in.
Their idea of "poverty" is that you lost 20 mil on stocks and... well guess you are not getting 2 Feraries this months... just one.
because people losing touch with reality is something I don't like to explore
Kinda sux dude
uh
a month?
yes
A lot of those people make 20-100 mil a month lol
I would probably just save for retirement tbh
and donate a lot of the money I don't spend to charity
Yea, for them it is ticket to the leaderboard of richest people in the world/country lol
it rotting in a bank account does no one good
uh usually 10-20k euros in western europe
america is the only place that really goes bonkers
Globalism m'good sir.
Most of those people are hardcode globalists.
Which means they dont give 2 fucks about any local communities.
Maybe except their own families
That hasnt been true since 1990s.
Just look at Russian oligarchs lol
sounds like the USSR but with a hell of a lot less "Communism"
they kept a tight grip on control
but cut the social services
order it, resell it without gpu lol
Traded my 3080 like I said I'd do a while ago
Cause someone said I'd get scalped but it was MSRP for MSRP
Only got it cause I do rendering
Which requires more VRAM than 10
3080TI would like a word.
Someone got a 3090 that was a dumbed down 3080TI dev chip.
Didn't GA102-250 get promoted to 3090, where it was originally supposed to be the 3080 Ti?
So buying a 3090 now will probably get you a 1500$ 3080 Ti :^)
3080ti = half memory 3090
And since 3090 memory is teamed it doesn't change the memory bandwidth
12 GiB feels a bit small for a card of that class
