AYOOOOOOOOOOOOO????

#

☠️

misty sparrow
#

i mistyped

#

oops

rancid juniper
#

nah u didn't

#

lol

elfin mural
#

if you want benchmarks you'd go to techpowerup

misty sparrow
#

what i was really going to send was

#

🤰

elfin mural
#

review+benchmarks is where techtubers provide

frigid stag
#

🤨

lone mango
#

Testing games is a benchmarker

elfin mural
#

but i gotta be honest tpu does review too

#

and they go to great depths about the cards themselves

frigid stag
#

What’s the word for it

elfin mural
#

journalism i suppose

rancid juniper
#

TPU, tomshardware, testing games, HUB, GN, zWormzGaming are usually the sources i look at for benchmarks

frigid stag
#

When they do more news style content

#

Yeah journalism kinda

elfin mural
#

it's like a journalism report

misty sparrow
#

how's digitalfoundry?

frigid stag
#

But it feels more like those tabloids articles compared to objective journalism kekw

#

Where they just give out the facts

rancid juniper
#

mostly

elfin mural
#

digital foundry is benchmark, also sometimes emotional videos

#

because they have retaliated other channels before

#

like using words "dumb" and stuff

frigid stag
elfin mural
#

defending taa is copium

frigid stag
#

Techtubers beef will never not be funny

rancid juniper
frigid stag
#

It’s kind of boring now though

elfin mural
#

ya

rancid juniper
elfin mural
#

deferred rendering is also defended

rancid juniper
#

rip clarity i guess

frigid stag
#

Who did

#

Digital foundry?

elfin mural
#

not really, but random clueless people

#

df only really defended temporal rendering

rancid juniper
#

literally almost every modern game uses TAA

#

MSAA, SMAA, SMAA T2X are nonexistent

elfin mural
#

taa is like a bandaid solution to hide bad base rendering

lone mango

elfin mural

minecraft shaders use taa even

rancid juniper

you see TSR as well but I don't like TSR

It’ll still sell out xD

elfin mural
#

this one's a technical vid against df

lone mango
#

Complementary has fxaa and some kind of temporal solution but it is not blurry

junior willow
#

Guys what benchmark place is unbiased, all the ones I see look biased

elfin mural
#

TPU

#

GN is also unbiased, but you might not like the entertaining aspect

#

The benches themselves are unbiased

frigid stag
#

Eh those posts show otherwise

elfin mural
#

The narration however is different

frigid stag
#

Ye that’s what I mean

elfin mural
#

ye

lone mango
elfin mural
#

i mean true

#

but he makes great points in general

frigid stag
#

Graphics is overrated

lone mango
#

But I guess at the end of the day it doesn’t matter because even with low it still ran like trash, even with the game missing whatever he was talking about

elfin mural
#

im satisfied with 2010's graphics and decent performance

#

that was basically the peak of graphics and performance lol

frigid stag
#

To the point where you have games that run 10x slower compared to slightly older games which don’t look too different

sinful blade
#

I wish I could have this as my pc background

elfin mural
#

can we go back pls

kind verge
#

yall what would be better a 5800x for 150 or 5700x3d for 230

elfin mural
#

games also look sterile with photorealism

kind verge
#

i have a 3080 and i wanna upgrade

#

but im on a tight budget

elfin mural
#

5700x3d all the way

#

if you can manage it

kind verge
#

and if i get 5800x i might get 32 gb ram too

lone mango
elfin mural
#

that 3d cache maes a big diff

#

buuut-

frigid stag
#

Do you already have am4

elfin mural
#

32gb ram, eh?

#

maybe ram+5800x is a better deal lol

kind verge
#

yh but in all the benchmarks ive seen neither of them bottlenecks a 3080

elfin mural
#

yeah these cpus don't bottleneck a 3080

frigid stag
#

Yep

elfin mural
#

might as well go with more ram

kind verge
#

yh cuz ive been seeing my ram usage go up to 15.5gb in game😭

rancid juniper
#

i think we hit a peak during the PS4/Xone Era

#

ik GTA 6 is trying to top that tho...

elfin mural
#

fh2 looked great

kind verge
#

alr thanks it was just to get a better idea overall

elfin mural
#

ps4/xone were also weak lol

#

8 puma cores

rancid juniper
#

fr

#

CPU was so trash

elfin mural
#

and hd 7770 or something igpu

lone mango
#

Bro is playing an ai model

elfin mural
#

it made games so easy to run

#

since consoles were trash

#

hardware limitations forced devs to make the games run

frigid stag
#

It was ok at the time

rancid juniper
#

a game like Driveclub ran on the PS4 and looked very nice

frigid stag
#

It’s like a gtx 750 for gpu

elfin mural
#

but now they just cope and tell us "don't have 4090? skill issue"

lone mango
#

Have you seen the video called game optimization used to be black magic

rancid juniper
#

Yes

lone mango
#

How they got games to run on the ps2

rancid juniper
#

its thanks to hardware limitations that made devs being extra creative

frigid stag
#

Real optimisation was in the 2000s when they had to work with 1 or 2 cores kekw

#

And 1gb ram

elfin mural
#

single core

#

tiny amount of ram

rancid juniper
#

trying to squeeze out as much fps as they possibly can

elfin mural
#

and basically no vram

lone mango
#

Dude that game where you are on the horse and you kill those big monsters was crazy

elfin mural
#

single core that ran like what

frigid stag
#

Websites from that time are so nice

elfin mural
#

below 1ghz in lower end pcs?

#

gta sa had pentium iii as a min cpu req

frigid stag
#

Now mf’s trying to create blender renders with their websites

rancid juniper
#

now without much limitations developers just think its easy to pump out their game without proper inspectation as they believe the hardware CAN TAKE IT

#

no

#

it cannot

elfin mural
#

it can take it if you have a 4 grand pc

icy ore
frigid stag
#

Somehow they’re back to targeting 60 fps

#

XD

elfin mural
#

anything else? you're SOL

proud jackal
lone mango
#

Yeah well just upgrade next year then you will be fine

rancid juniper
#

crap code/assets will always make any hardware crumble

#

thats how it works

frigid stag
#

Even if you have a high end card, you still get ripped off in those games

#

Frostpunk 2 30 fps on a 4090 at 4k

#

10 to 15 fps 1% lows

misty sparrow
#

shadow of the colossus?

lone mango
#

Yeah the ps2 game i forgot the bame of

lone mango
#

Yeah

elfin mural
#

i like how it's people's responsibility to upgrade their pc EVERY year to play newest games

north crescent
elfin mural
#

they've gaslit us all

lone mango
rancid juniper
elfin mural
#

as much as i like dlss

#

it kinda kicked off the trend of bad graphics and bad perf

#

same for fsr

lone mango
#

Stpid amd just buy nvidia

frigid stag
#

“Upgrade your almost 5 year old card, why do you expect games to run at all on it”
The card in question getting 5070 performance

#

XD

elfin mural
#

gpus have stagnated

#

and devs want us to upgrade??

#

perf level has basically not changed much

frigid stag
#

That should be a good thing for optimisation

#

But they treat it the other way

rancid juniper
#

technically but where we're at (the tools now) they still choose to be lazy

elfin mural
#

ue5 enables them to be extra lazy

rancid juniper
#

^^^

#

thats the problem

north crescent
elfin mural
#

it's also free basically

#

free and easy

lone mango
north crescent
elfin mural
#

ye

#

and it shows

rancid juniper
#

having well established tools comes at a cost

literally convenience in general pays a price...

north crescent
#

Anyways, I go now. Work needs me

frigid stag
lone mango
elfin mural
#

delulu devs vs 5090

#

who will win

frigid stag
#

theyre trying to psy op the 5090 owners into using frame gen

lone mango
#

5090 frame gen sweeps unfortunately

frigid stag
#

instead of fixing the game

elfin mural
#

they manage to make 5090 owners use frame gen

rancid juniper
#

huh? HOW???

elfin mural
#

and make them think the 9800x3d and 64gb ram isn't enough

proud jackal
#

stop targeting me

frigid stag
#

tbf a lot of those games are usually mostly gpu bound

rancid juniper
#

5090 user caught

#

heheh

elfin mural
#

fair

frigid stag
#

but gpus are a lot more expensive to upgrade

elfin mural
#

it's just annoying to me that

#

having to use frame gen with a top tier latest gpu to get decent perf while at max graphics and high res is mandatory

sinful blade
#

Me when I still have a 5700xt

dusk knot
#

Dlss isn't enough sometimes

elfin mural
#

displays have gotten great with oled, and we introduce ghosting

acoustic palm
#

@fresh timber do I try lossless

elfin mural
#

it's just counter intiutive lmao

#

why even bother with all this tech when the end result ends up smeary

rancid juniper
#

(NOT COUNTING INFLATION)

#

damn...

frigid stag
#

3080 was close in performance anyway for 699

rancid juniper
#

2080ti is 1k

#

still wild

frigid stag
#

Gpu shortage was rough

dusk knot
frigid stag
#

2080 tis were mostly 1200 anyway

rancid juniper
frigid stag
#

Ye 999 for the blower cards xD

rancid juniper
#

outrageous

frigid stag
#

1199 for FE iirc

#

When the fe used to cost more

frigid stag
rancid juniper
#

and now with the 90 class of cards 80 tier buyers feel like ITS NOT ENOUGH

frigid stag
#

But those weren’t that good anyway

rancid juniper
#

literal evil scheme from nvidia

#

to make em buy more expensive crap

sinful blade
#

$400 for a 2080ti is still normal

#

Just wack

frigid stag
#

Nice

#

They still kept their value

crimson scroll
#

Guy on FB was selling a rog strix 3060 for 500$

frigid stag
#

I could probably sell mine but I’ll keep it for now

crimson scroll
#

What a idiot

elfin mural
#

they keep their value all because gpus stagnated so much

crimson scroll
frigid stag
#

That’s good for games, older cards can stay more relevant

elfin mural
#

it just paints an image that having a 5 year old gpu is equal to a new and shiny midranger

#

too bad devs are completely blind to this

frigid stag
#

They also kind of reached limitations in gpu design

#

Newer nodes cost a lot more

rancid juniper
elfin mural
#

we're kinda at a point where progress slowed down to nearly a halt

frigid stag
#

MLID

elfin mural
#

so gpus just get fed with more and more vram

sinful blade
#

It’s hard to upgrade because everyone values their hardware differently as well.

rancid juniper
#

so when will the game industry bubble burst?

#

will it ever happen?

dusk knot
frigid stag
rancid juniper
#

i dunno

elfin mural
#

when ppl stop being able to afford pcs ig

#

that's when it stops

#

but that's not gonna slow down

frigid stag
#

Consoles still exist

rancid juniper
#

Xbox: "Imma quit"

elfin mural
#

if pc is too expensive people will just move to consoles

dusk knot
frigid stag
#

And probably lower end cards will still end up beating them sooner or later

elfin mural
#

even if it locks ya in

rancid juniper
#

yep

frigid stag
#

I mean a 4060 already is faster than a Ps5 so

#

It’s not that hard to get that performance level

rancid juniper
#

if xbox pulls a complete sega they'll lose even more money because people are now coming back to consoles

#

lmfao

#

its like when people who sold their 2080ti during the crypto boom

crimson scroll
#

J*b 🥀

frigid stag
#

The “expensive” hardware is not even close to console tier

#

And you can get the ps5 performance with like a 2070 or a 2060super

elfin mural

can we have 150 bucks competent gpus again (new)

But realistically no, you shouldn’t have to pay extra

elfin mural
#

gaming was so cheap

frigid stag

rancid juniper

#

1080tis near me sell for 80$

frigid stag
#

Only the top end stuff is expensive

elfin mural
#

okay, 20

#

200*

crimson scroll
rancid juniper
#

I think another reason why the PC market is so crippled is the fact that it's not niche anymore

elfin mural
#

even 200 is difficult lol

rancid juniper
#

everyone wants to get a gpu

#

lmfao

elfin mural
#

but if you set expectations low a 6600 gets you into any game

crimson scroll

dusk knot
#

Hm

frigid stag
#

I mean there’s always build guides on yt but they definitely became more widespread

#

Most people probably go the prebuilt way though

rancid juniper
#

well a part of me is a bit happy that people want to dive into pc gaming instead of staying confined in consoles but man, it has gotten worse

#

sad but eh

idc about a 5060 anyway

#

just a nothingburger

lone mango
#

They need to innovate like cpus

lone mango
#

Thank you nvidia for making the masses upgrade once again

elfin mural
#

"upgrade"

#

5-10% perf uplift i guess??

lone mango
#

Yes

#

Keep them at 1080p

#

Dont give better value by making a card go to 1440p

elfin mural
#

3060 with 12gb staring directly at it

lone mango
#

Nah 1440p wouldnt be that good on that card

elfin mural
#

yeh

lone mango
#

Unless you dlss swap every game

#

But thats the cope

#

Then you get the 5060 because its two gens newer bro

#

Then go down to 8

#

Doomed to 1080p forever

elfin mural
#

pay the same for less

lone mango
#

Unless you play older games on linux

elfin mural
#

that's the nvidia way

lone mango
#

But dlss swap on linux is finicky

#

Linux manages vram better which confirmed a suspicion i had when I switched earlier this year

#

I was like how am I using less vram on the same game rn

#

ultra textures Red dead at 1440p with other stuff open was using like 5.7 gigs

#

Thats total vram usage

#

Warframe uses like 3 gigs lmfao

#

So if you play older games you can cope with 8 gigs

#

But thats the thing, you buy a brand new card to play old games?

#

Thats a cope of its own really

#

Actually nah that can go both ways

#

Maybe you dont like new games because of how they are made so you stick with older games anyway (me)

velvet summit

I just play mostly older AAA games since most new releases don't interest me

Doom 2016 is crazy because of how easy it is to run

i get to this point sometimes, motor, where id rather just burn everything down and start fresh with whatever i am doing and prolly wouldve hit that point for me a long time ago with whatever your doing

i'd rather run a single 6 pin at 300w than a 12vhpwr at 600

I have never seen a radeon card with a 12v

The asrock taichi and the sapphire nitro

yah

And other models that have it that I missed

latent dome

oh only 2 have it

#

the Sapphire Nitro+ and the Asrock Taichi

upper rain
#

i thought there were more tbh

frigid stag
#

Oh I was right ig

#

Ye same

latent dome
#

Also they use a different version of 12v

upper rain
#

the sapphire one is so funny to me because they legit didn't modify the PCB at all except to run the 12vhpwr into what would have been a bunch of 8 pin input planes lol

latent dome
#

which doesnt have a dinky version of it that nvidia uses

upper rain
#

"yeah so we took the reference PCB, made it less reliable, and then called it our halo tier product"

upper rain
latent dome
#

I am talking about the internals

upper rain
#

the internals are 16 pins lol, there isn't much to change

#

it's 6 gnd pins, 6 12v pins, and four sense pins

#

same as nvidia

latent dome
#

No i mean the power transfer its hard to explain :(

#

yknow how nvidia makes all the power go through those 2 little things

upper rain
#

are you talking about load balancing?

latent dome
#

Im pretty sure its more evenly spread out through the AMD cards also they use less power so its safer

frigid stag
#

I don’t think it is

upper rain
#

nah, it all runs into a unified 12v input plane just like Nvidia

#

it's part of the PCI SIG spec

latent dome
#

12vhpwer

upper rain
#

no load balancing, just 50 amps

you surely will not regret 50 amps

Are 8GB GPUs really that bad in 2025? What about for 1080p? What about for 1440p with upscaling? What if you turn the settings down. Let's find out by pitting the 5060 Ti 8GB and 16GB head to head in eight of the biggest games released so far in 2025.
