i read somewhere "this user is getting sanctioned" or sth lmao

[full fossil]

You stop them from doing business in countries where they are sanctioned

[rain dust]

it was just a response to sb reporting another user to a mod, does this basically mean theyre banned or what .-.

[plush rivet]

It’s like saying they’re no longer allowed on the platform their on.
Imagine if someone kicked you out of the sandbox and said your sanctioned and your not allowed to talk to anyone from the sandbox, same concept

[rain dust]

ahh, like banishment (from any interaction regarding the place youre sanctioned from)?

it just means to be punished basically

Your lucky if you get 18k/y for that hear

That’s about minimum wage here

[rain dust]

daaaayum, where

usa or what

[glad mist]

Colorado. Minimum here is over $13 an hour

[full fossil]

Same hear, cashiers are paid minimum wage or near that. Same with every other job that dosnt require a university degree

[glad mist]

Actually minimum here is about $27k a year

[full fossil]

Lol

[rain dust]

germany is 12 lol

[glad mist]

Our economy is so inflated that minimum isn’t enough to keep anyone anymore

People would rather not work than work minimum

[full fossil]

Higher than the median wage in the UK when converted

[full fossil]

Same hear but noone is willing to pay you anymore

[glad mist]

Damn, UK getting shafted

[full fossil]

Food prices have gone up 60% since 2019

[glad mist]

McDonald’s pays $18 an hour where I live

[glad mist]

I think that’s actually worse than here

[full fossil]

Tf, how is that even possible

[glad mist]

Because fast food is surprisingly high margin

[rain dust]

fast food pays good frfr

[full fossil]

That's more than you'll earn as a nurse here

[glad mist]

Nurses make 60-80k a year here

[rain dust]

nurses get paid shi anyways, no?

[full fossil]

In the US they make ALOT

As a sysadmin in the US I can make 80k/y with 4 years experience whilst here I could only make 27k/y or about 35k/y usd

[glad mist]

Because our healthcare “system” charges out the ass

[glad mist]

As a sysadmin where I live you can easily start at $60-$70k

[full fossil]

Bro.

[glad mist]

You could literally double your salary by moving here

I'm moving as far away as humanly possible from the shithole that is the UK once I turn 18

I'd argue that I live in Surry more than London but eh

Technically it's within the m25

[glad mist]

Rent for a 1 bedroom apartment here is $1500 a month

[full fossil]

It’s not much better here.
We live 40 miles out from a major city in texas and it’s still $1600 for a studio

[full fossil]

I'm looking at cities like Denver and the rent for a studio is 1.2k/m there

At least on zwillow

Are you accounting for safety?

[glad mist]

Yeah Denver is cheaper than my city

[full fossil]

WDYM?

The usa has far more dangerous areas than the UK
Gangs, gun violence, assault, etc

[glad mist]

Also drugs

[full fossil]

That too

I'm looking at cities with ok public transit as I can save money that way whilst in uni

[glad mist]

The drug problem here is bad enough that it’s a joke about how ineffective the government is

[full fossil]

Yeah that doesn’t exist here in 99.9% of places

[full fossil]

Denver seems ok?

[full fossil]

Some large cities have bus and light rail networks

Have you been to the usa

[glad mist]

Just stay away from colfax

[fervent prairie]

Sounds like a US problem that I'm to EU to understand 🦆

[glad mist]

Denver hardly has public transit

[full fossil]

So real 😞

On the flip side
If you’re a car person the usa is fuckin awesome

[glad mist]

Unfortunately I’m an electric bike person

Would love to move to Amsterdam

[fervent prairie]

Then to the Netherlands you go

[full fossil]

Have fun on the highway since there’s no gottamn sidewalks

According to Google maps it has some light rail and if you zoom in further there are plenty of bus routes

And I've found many properties within 10 minute walking distance of the transit stops that cost about 1.2k/m

[glad mist]

Check how often the buses run. Also, those are all suburb-to-urban center lines. You can’t easily use the rail system to visit a friend’s house

[full fossil]

Are you also accounting for the various insurances you’ll have to pay for that aren’t covered by taxes?

[glad mist]

Plus the cost of a car. If I buy a used car with financing it’ll cost me about $300 a month plus $300 a month for insurance

[full fossil]

For example, my health/dental/vision insurance is about $600 a month, and that’s with gov plans
Without gov matching, it would be $1300 a month

[glad mist]

Holy hell do I have it good then

[full fossil]

Granted I have really good insurance
But that’s just me

The alternative is buying a car because I would have no credit score at 18

[full fossil]

If you’re a new driver yeah $300 a month is close

[glad mist]

My employer pays most of my insurance so I only have a $7 a week pay deduction for health, life, vision, and dental insurance

[glad mist]

That I am

[full fossil]

Strangely, my miata is cheaper to insure than my impreza was

[full fossil]

And I have zero savings so that ain't happening

The soft top, manual, red sports car is cheaper to insure than the plain white hatchback with driver assists, make that make sense

[near nymph]

Good thing I "pay" into MSP

Medical service plan in Canada BC lol

[glad mist]

I applied for a credit card the day I turned 18 so I could start building enough credit to get a car

[full fossil]

Yeah so the usa is really great if you must have material wealth

[near nymph]

Did they hand you one on a silver platter?

[full fossil]

As for social things…it’s a bit of a shitshow at the moment.

[full fossil]

Yeah but dosnt it take a few years to build up your credit score?

[full fossil]

Yes

[median idol]

All I'll say is this, YMMV

[glad mist]

Actually yeah pretty much I got approved for a card with cashback and a $1000 limit. I had to give them a $1000 security deposit to get that high of a limit but I’ll get it back in a few months more

[near nymph]

Royal Bank of Canada handed me a credit card on a silver platter. The bank I banked with since my teenage years 😂 no security deposit

[manic torrent]

that is so fucked

[full fossil]

Also remember your “score” isn’t even half of the story
You also have credit strength based on length of history
For example my score is about 800/850, but my history is short so I still get denied for stuff

[glad mist]

What is

[glad mist]

Length of history is part of score

[median idol]

Here in Michigan, we pay the highest in the nation for car insurance

[full fossil]

It is, but a high score with 3 years of history won’t get you a half decent auto loan

[near nymph]

About 2 months ago they offered me to increase my credit limit to $7500. Then... Someone committed fraud... And I'm back down to $4000 something limit until they figure it out

Unsecured debt on a unemployed person... Pretty dope lol

[manic torrent]

the entire fundamental nature of credit scores.

[full fossil]

I’m sorry

Carvana bought my base model impreza for $6k over msrp
Morons

[near nymph]

The RCMP (basically FBI), RBC, Google and Amazon are investigating. Wtf happen. They wiped out my entire Credit Limit when I was asleep

[full fossil]

Because my bday is in a November I will be around 19 when I finish college. So considering that, I will have about 10 months to build up a credit score from the day I turn 18. Is that enough time? I will have 10 months before I move to the US.

[glad mist]

They probably added another 6k before listing it

[near nymph]

They somehow bypassed 2FA

[full fossil]

You also understand the usa has one of the longest immigration times in the world?

[near nymph]

If your Indian, Chinese, etc. Basically most non white countries

[glad mist]

Which is strange considering how bad it is here

[full fossil]

If you have insane skills you can get in fast but if you’re just immigrating? Lol good luck

As long as you prove to the immigration officer that you are in a committed relationship. Maybe a quickie filmed should do kek

Hmm I see

It's not hard to get a US credit cards a Canadian. Most Canadian Banks can issue a US card based off Canadian Credit score

[hearty spear]

yup! A suggestion / Request for a feature might actually happen.
But it may also be ignored forever. Roll the dice!

[tribal topaz]

i thought they recieved a lot of payment after ltt made a video on that ):

[hearty spear]

... what?

[glad mist]

Open source contributors don’t get squat

[hearty spear]

LTT doesn't pay people to make videos of their stuff.

[near nymph]

They do... Very rarely

LTT sponsored a few computer builds lol

[glad mist]

Even if it got people to donate it only goes to the core dev team not the open source community

People don’t write open source software for money, they do it as a hobby or to try and improve the world in whatever little way they can

[hearty spear]

They might also pay someone to "rent" something super cool. But that's not quite the same as paying to make a video.

[glad mist]

Doing that is just cost of doing business

LTT also has to buy hardware for reviews and stuff, just cost of doing business

S1 is meh, 2 is bad, 3 is nostalgia bait and I loved it
Paramount+ in the usa, outside idk

I don’t have paramount+ so I guess I’ll sail the high oceans to get it

[hearty spear]

I enjoyed Picard S1 and S2. I haven't watched 3 yet.

[full fossil]

It’s so much fun

[hearty spear]

Picard is also a dramatic change from the stylings of most Star Trek shows, with an over-arching series plot that actually is central to most of the series.

[glad mist]

Ooh

[full fossil]

Same as discovery

[hearty spear]

Unlike the other main series, some of which have a "plot" but are far from central to most of it.

[full fossil]

Episodic

[hearty spear]

ToS and TNG especially are super episodic. What's a meta-plot?

[glad mist]

It seems most of them are like the simpsons where it’s just stuff that happens and lessons are learned and everything is back to normal, or close to

[full fossil]

Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds are episodic too

Disco and Picard are overarching

[hearty spear]

yup, that's exactly it.
DS9 was the first one to break out of that, to some extent, with the wormhole and dominion war arcs
Voyager had a background meta arc, but it wasn't that important to most episodes.

[full fossil]

Captain Painway of the USS Warpath

[glad mist]

Gotta say though I loved TNG

[glass lantern]

The Expanse is better

[hearty spear]

TNG is my favoritest series. I've watched it no less than 3 or 4 times completely. Some epiodes I've seen way more.

[full fossil]

Also very good

[glad mist]

I love that this server has trek nerds

My people

[glass lantern]

I do need to get around to getting through DS9 though as a lot of people say that is the best Startrek, watched it as a kid, but I haven't even watched it as a teenager nevermind adult.

[silk wadi]

That depends on a lot. Linux is sponsored by Google and so is Firefox(mostly to prevent anti-competition laws from kicking in over the Chrome engine) but its pretty hard to get to that point where big companies sponsor you

[glad mist]

I haven’t watched DS9 much it got kinda boring

[silk wadi]

I liked DS9. First season, as is tradition with Trek, is the worst season

[glad mist]

I’m talking about the average contributor just fixing a bug here or there, not the dev teams

[silk wadi]

true

[glad mist]

The dev teams don’t usually pay outside contributors at all

[full fossil]

It isn’t star trek if season 1 isn’t questionable

Which makes me excited for SNW, because if that was the bad season lmao

[glad mist]

SNW?

[silk wadi]

Haven't seen SNW. Been jaded over Picard and Discovery but I have been hearing a lot of good about it. Might check it out

[glass lantern]

but my main goal is to be able to say that The Expanse is better than DS9 whever someone brings it up

[silk wadi]

Strange New Worlds. Its about Captain Pike, Kirk's predecessor

[full fossil]

Strange New Worlds

[glad mist]

Ooh sounds nice

Is the show any good? I don’t remember a lot about vegetable man

[full fossil]

I got warshipped for worshiping pike

[silk wadi]

10 second wait between messages

[glad mist]

[full fossil]

But yes SNW is very good
First episode made me cry

[glad mist]

I’ll bet SNW ends with that incident that got Pike to be a veg

[full fossil]

You gotta watch Discovery for that

[silk wadi]

I will check it out then. Discovery and Picard never really got better so I was feeling very let down, but it SNW is good out the gate I will check it out

[full fossil]

Picard S3 is so, so worth it

You don’t need to watch S2 to watch 3

[glass lantern]

I liked all of Picard so

To be fair not a big Trek fan so it being a more like a generic Sci-Fi rather than Star Trekesc is more to my taste.

[silk wadi]

Gonna have a hot take: Spock should have stayed dead after Wrath of Khan.

I get what they were trying to do in Search for Spock, but...it kinda made his sacrifice meaningless

[dreamy rose]

HHHH, then whos gonna Ask "What would Spock do?"

[peak fiber]

isi it bad if they swap the plate of the grapic card

[dreamy rose]

backplate? depends.

[peak fiber]

i found 1 3070 msi 3 fans its outlet they repaired by swaping it is it bad idea to get it for 480

[full fossil]

Some cards need the backplate

[silk wadi]

Like, it was so emotional seeing his casket being launched to a planet he indirectly had a hand in creating...like the old must die to make way for the new. It was very thematic. Then, Spock just sort of gets reborn and I can't help but feel like it was a real waste of a death.

[dreamy rose]

big papa pickle

[hearty spear]

yes, but he's also one of the best parts of the series, so leaving him dead would have hurt the franchise

[peak fiber]

idk he just says the plate of the grapic card

i was intrested on buying it fits my budget

[silk wadi]

In a way, sure, but it also cheapens the franchise when any character can just conveniently come back. Thats why nobody takes death seriously in sci-fi anymore. Favorite character is dead? They will be back next issue. Its fine.

If you make the decision to kill a character, that decision should be permanent

[median ridge]

idk what it is but some of these series have more writers than they have characters

[hearty spear]

comic book authors just fell over laughing as you typed that

[oblique silo]

Guys whats better to pair with a RTX 3070. Ryzen 5 3600 or Ryzen 5 5600?

[glass lantern]

Although to be fair even I had the throught in season 2 of Picard "Your gonna wipe all biological life in the galaxy just because the Romulans are Romulans? That seems a tiny little bit extreme."

[silk wadi]

Nobody takes western comic book deaths seriously either my man

[amber cairn]

Doesn't mean comic authors are the best judges of what makes an impactful story with a beginning, middle and ending.

Western comics usually don't "end".

[hearty spear]

They do not, and if they do, it's just to reboot with a new name

[amber cairn]

Which in and of itself waters down the brand after a while since it eventually gets over-saturated with sub-par content and then just fades away.

keep in mind I'll be playing at 1440p also

[glass lantern]

Oh no that was season 1 wasn't it

[hearty spear]

Z2 to 3 was a significant uplift

[silk wadi]

I have a personal rule that the longer a franchise goes, the cheaper it gets. When a series is not allowed to die and important characters become "vital" to the brand, it severely limits the kind of storytelling you can tell because the status quo cannot change for too long

[dreamy rose]

grt the 5600

[hearty spear]

Get the 5600 unless the 3000's are dramatically cheaper (and enough to justify in the budget)

[amber cairn]

marvel basically relaunched series every 24 months for a while just because they believed that audiences were scared by the big issue numbers "no-one buys spiderman 498 as their first comic we need to start over"

[oblique silo]

The r5 3600 is like $40 cheaper

[amber cairn]

€40 isn't really dramatically cheaper, the 5600 performs way more than €40 worth more

[oblique silo]

the bang per buck for the 7000 series is just too much for me lol

[hearty spear]

https://youtu.be/ifI9nnmW5sg
The 3600 and 5600 are both on the chart.

[oblique silo]

thank you so much Ill take a look

[hearty spear]

the uplift is very very non-zero on the platform.

[oblique silo]

wdym non-zero?

[hearty spear]

not zero, it's a fairly significant increase.

[oblique silo]

the thing about this is that Im using a 3070 and the charts are based on a 3080, which I think exaggerates the difference since it isnt so CPU bound

[glad mist]

Anyone else remember when AMD were the underdogs?

[polar fern]

i wonder if there's a company that makes narloy-z cpu heatsinks

[oblique silo]

fx days hehe

[dreamy rose]

Still are in the GPU Space

[hearty spear]

That's fine. You want CPU Benchmarks to show without a GPU limiting anything.

[glad mist]

Unless you use Linux since nvidia also means novideo on Linux

[hearty spear]

So you can see the relative CPU Performance and not anything else.

[amber cairn]

yep wasn't that long ago basically 2 years before the pandemic was their comeback and even then ryzen gen 1 was pretty bad but promising

[dreamy rose]

still. they arent the most used

[glad mist]

It’s crazy how fast they’ve improved

[polar fern]

zen+?

[glad mist]

Unfortunately. I hope they grow in popularity, they’re breaking the nvidia monopoly

[polar fern]

oh the zen

[amber cairn]

the difference between the 1700x and the 7800x3d is insane considering what came before the zen architecture.

[full fossil]

Double, minimum

BARE minimum

[dreamy rose]

we need way more Radeon sales

[oblique silo]

thanks mate

[dreamy rose]

at least RDNA 2 sells well now

[amber cairn]

the 7900 xt would be a no-brainer if they just lowered the price a bit

[hearty spear]

I love mine, it's awesome

[dreamy rose]

800 would be a sweet spot

more would buy and they get profit still,

[full fossil]

Waiting for battlemage

[amber cairn]

considering how the 3070 is apparently aging like milk for 1440p+ gaming because of the lack of vram it would be a good "premium" path for those peeps

[hearty spear]

Mine was 850 for one with a significantly upgraded aftermarket cooler.
7900 XT Taichi

[hearty spear]

to some extent this is an overblown issue. But 8GB Was a stupid decision for NVidia.

[amber cairn]

lowest here still is around €950 still but it's been dropping a lot in price since launch

[polar fern]

interesting https://www.frostytech.com/articles/2021/index.html

[dreamy rose]

minimal extent. its absolutely a bare minimum now

[hearty spear]

holy shit: 2006 I remember shit like that. Wild wild west of coolers back then

[amber cairn]

the xtx has fallen a fair bit in price here too now like €150 lower than the 4080 which is a good price

[dreamy rose]

we need to wait for Computex to get new AMD Cards. thats likely when they will announce

[amber cairn]

you think there's an msrp drop imminent?

[hearty spear]

I wouldn't hold my breath on it (or at least not much of one)

[full fossil]

I’m oddly excited for WWDC this year

[amber cairn]

me neither, i think it'll slowly go down as supplies stops rolling off the shelves.

[dreamy rose]

i think if they drop MSRP they would have to lower the MSRP of these non 900 class cards and idk if they wanna do that.

[amber cairn]

then again the 6950 XT is insane prices here right now like lower than a new 3070 kinda low

[hearty spear]

NVidia is unlikely to cut prices anything reasonable.
And due to how capitalism works, AMD is unlikely to do anything more than NVidia does.

[silk wadi]

I just buy my cards used after those models stop being popular

Still rocking a 1060 baybee

[dreamy rose]

i mean a 700 dollar 7800XT would be alright, not super cool but alright

[amber cairn]

isn't the rumour that they'll just announce the 7600 xt and skip the 700/800?

and just position top end rdna2 cards to take those price slots?

[dreamy rose]

idk i've heard that they wanna do 77/7800

[silk wadi]

I plan on getting a 3080 later in the year to enjoy some RTX/VR games. Used they are around 500-700 dollars but right now I am saving for other things

Does anyone know if RTX works using Proton? Im a Linux guy but never got the chance to try out an RTX game because card isn't powerful enough

I don't see any reason why it wouldn't, but you never know

[dreamy rose]

you'll want Radeon.

[dreamy rose]

it will Work. but just skip nvidia and buy a radeon if you want linux

No I mean go live in a shitty studio apartment, study university and get a student loan and live off minimum wage

For 4 years. That's what alot of people have to do

[half shadow]

I’ve seen the struggle

[full fossil]

Of your butler tripping over a book

[half shadow]

Online college

[full fossil]

Seeing it is one thing
Wondering where your next meal is going to come from is another

[median idol]

Seeing is one thing, living it is a whole different ballgame

[half shadow]

Not that rich or dumb I have to see my mom once in a while

Ramen is like 50€

Do this for 4 years and you may be able to understand what most young people have to go through

You’re horribly out of touch dude

Ahoy

[acoustic plume]

Specification is same intel i7 12700h rtx 3060 140w tgp.. both are gaming laptops so in terms of build quality, cooling, which laptop is better? As you know cooling is very important factor for gaming laptops

[median idol]

What I do is flip PCs I build, going to college, working graveyard shifts, and a day job to top it all off.... And that's barely scratching the surface for keeping afloat. I can say that your 20s is probably the most stressful time in your life

[full fossil]

i share a room with my sister that sleeps for lik 90% of the day

[polar fern]

@acoustic plume let me take a quick look and see if I can give you a recommendation

[idle nymph]

Ngl idk how you all even live whit no Personal space, id die if i didnt have my own room at my home

[acoustic plume]

Okay

[full fossil]

My sister gets her own room, ma sleeps on the couch and I share a room with my two little brothers

[half shadow]

Why you in ltt server computers is a exspensive hobby

[full fossil]

[full fossil]

Personal space, heat, and warm water are luxuries I cannot live without at this point

that is beautiful 🙂

Heat and water especially
It’s like 75 outside and I’m cold

[full fossil]

This. Ma didn't want to share a room so chose the living room/kitchen instead of sharing it with my sis

[polar fern]

Lenovo has pretty good build quality & the asus is pretty popular so

Get whichever you think looks better & fits your usage

alos does anyone want a copy of doom 2?

[acoustic plume]

I am soo confused 😕

[idle nymph]

For PC?

[full fossil]

Doom 2? Or doom eternal?

[full fossil]

doom 2

[polar fern]

Confused how?

[idle nymph]

Doom 2 is good? Im intrested

[full fossil]

Put very loud white noise and build a single bed that converts into a desk that can also be folded forward to give enough space to workout. I going to build the bed. I got the design nailed down so far.

[full fossil]

It will cost about £300 to build

[full fossil]

i mean i guess its fine the controls on pc are a bit akward but yeah its good

[polar fern]

Build a bed … nailed down mhm

[full fossil]

Are your brothers at least polite with your studies and sleep?

[full fossil]

WDYM?

[idle nymph]

Well why not

[polar fern]

Well, if you’re building something you use a hammer and nails

[full fossil]

Yes lol

[idle nymph]

Im surprised uncle linus didnt try out the new sandal

[polar fern]

Just a funny coincidence of words

[full fossil]

And a saw and saw stand

That's my plan, I've almost saved up enough

ppl returning 40 series cards for RDNA 2: the most effective advertisement.

[idle nymph]

This really happening?

[half shadow]

?

[full fossil]

rly?

[dreamy rose]

yea. MLID got told by retailers that ppl are deciding to return their 40 series for RDNA 2.

[full fossil]

hello "PYRO IS SPY" guy 🙂

[dreamy rose]

DA!

[wise tundra]

Except if you're into iGPUs

Oh wait are we talking about Ryzen or Radeon?

[near iron]

But 40 series < RDNA2? Fr?

Radeon I believe

[wise tundra]

Oh wait and I managed to mix 6000 and 7000 Ryzen

[near iron]

Lol I was thinking never knew there was Ryzen 6000

[wise tundra]

My bad, ignore what I said. Ryzen 5000G iGPU > Ryzen 7000 iGPU tho

[gilded quest]

mobile only

[near iron]

I see

[wise tundra]

I love how AMD started skipping gens like that

[gilded quest]

AMD naming consistency could be better

[near iron]

Like Samsungs leap

From 10 to 20

[gilded quest]

S10 -> S20 was smart

now the number is the year of release

[near iron]

I guess so but still simpler if it's a linear increaee

[wise tundra]

Imagine caring about phone models

[wise tundra]

I mean, looks at Nvidia

[near iron]

980,1080,2080,3080,4080

[wise tundra]

Yeah

[gilded quest]

Oh yeah. I totally don't care about phones...

[near iron]

Nerd

Jk xd

[wind pulsar]

Send me that Pixel 7 for free, thx br

[dreamy rose]

the 4070 is a massive ad for RDNA2 now.

[gilded quest]

just noticed that essential box is upside down lmao

[wind pulsar]

Oh well. xD

[gilded quest]

google practically gave them away

[wind pulsar]

Not in Japan, that's for sure

[near iron]

Really? Doesn't the 4070 beat the 3080 and more power efficient

[wind pulsar]

Because Japan never has the nice shit

[gilded quest]

https://tenor.com/view/merica-teamamerica-gif-5583075

Japan only ever has the weird shit

*only for pixel availability

I was an HTC loyalist back in the day

[dreamy rose]

its worse but draws 100 less. and its 600 dollars

[gilded quest]

rip HTC

[near iron]

Thinking of 4070ti lol which is still expensive but

[wind pulsar]

It's equivalent* and draws 100w less, yes

[near iron]

Wasn't RDNA2 considerably worse than 30 series tho

[wind pulsar]

It's just not equivalent to the 3080 12GB lmao

[gilded quest]

Lil guy just landed on my window

[wind pulsar]

Yeaaah no

The 6900 XT beats the 3090, the 6950 XT more or less equals the 3090 Ti and the rest of RDNA2 was considerably better value than 30 series ever was

[dreamy rose]

might have a little bit. but prices are way low its looking damn good now

[dreamy rose]

not to mention Radeon has more VRAM where it matters too

[near iron]

Might upgrade my cpu

[wind pulsar]

The prices were pretty much always better than Nvidia period

[near iron]

On a 3080x5700x might go to 6950XTx5800X3D

[dreamy rose]

Indeed

[wind pulsar]

Pandemic times, when it wasn't unusual for the 3090 to cost $3000, the 6900 XT was a third of that

[near iron]

You think dis worth

[hearty spear]

okay Linus was having fun picking on MKBHD in today's video. It's funny

[wind pulsar]

At worst, the 6900 XT was $1500 vs $2000~$3000 the 3090 was

[dreamy rose]

yea. sounds fine

[wind pulsar]

Worth? No, not really

[median idol]

Oddly enough, I bought my 3090 for less than what the 6900XTs were going for in my area

[wind pulsar]

Aren't you Aussie

[median idol]

No

[near iron]

I think I'm cpu bottlenecked tbh

[wind pulsar]

You're not

The 5700X is effectively a 5800X except it doesn't burn your house down (figuratively), I'd be surprised if you were

[hearty spear]

that'd be an absurdly terrible upgrade

unless you enjoy wasting money for no good reason

[full fossil]

Which pic is better from the mkbhd shoe video from ltt and dave2d

[near iron]

Yeah that's the thing though, I had a 3060 before. Then I upgraded to a 3080, I gained no performance

[full fossil]

Which one is more funny

[wind pulsar]

Are you chocking your system to death or why is that?

[near iron]

My 5700x is always below 57 degrees, and my GPU peaks at 70 on the vram
