#

Should i grab whats left in microcenter?

elfin mural
#

if you still want a 5070ti

#

might be good to get one now

opaque sedge
#

I was hoping to get a 5080 but not finding one near msrp they’re nearly 1.5k

elfin mural
#

5080 is still being made, but yeah

opaque sedge
#

The 5070ti’s still at under 900

elfin mural
#

nowhere near msrp

opaque sedge
#

Last one in stock… man wth…

bitter ridge
#

Probably won't be soon

opaque sedge
#

Wasn’t able to reserve it…

I should have upgraded when i had the chance

ey, let's not circumvent the chat filter

we have certain words unblocked but a lot of em are still blocked

Anyone know how long it takes to get a gift card from Newegg I ordered over an hour ago because I’m trying to do a split payment with it

elfin mural
#

they typically take 24 hours

#

if it's been over 24 hours you might wanna DM neweggservice

thorn rune
#

Okay it said 1 hour so I wasn’t sure thank you

nocturne flicker
sweet valley
#

indeed

nocturne flicker
#

Nah, but just keep an eye out. Wait for the next holiday or something

#

Don't be afraid of missing out on an even better deal if you take a really good deal now

#

Because nothing is guaranteed

elfin mural
#

right

#

because the product is only not being made because of the current situation

#

it's not officially EOL'd, just no longer produced for now

ashen swan
#

So

#

9070XT wins

#

Because it actually exists

elfin mural
#

9070xt's price is rising and rising

ashen swan
#

Which I don’t like

ashen swan
#

When you win the competition cause their is no competition

#

It’s

#

Bad

elfin mural

and there is always a possibility that radeon might follow the same strategy nvidia is heading with

i just set it to a long ass password, gonna just pray they give up now

#

Ngl i wonder if ngreedia might completely get out of the gaming market now

#

Maybe not immediately

#

But in like 1 or 2 generations

elfin mural
#

they aren't, but are squeezing us all to lower end skus

#

and recycled products

#

they're trying to push cloud gaming and focus on ai stuff

opaque sedge
#

Ah the recent ryzen way

elfin mural
#

yep

#

we can still game, but we will be stuck on the old stuff

#

im hoping that this will mean that games will be more optimized

#

it'll at least make everything easier to run

opaque sedge
#

But man

elfin mural
#

yeah it won't

opaque sedge
#

Home computing’s dying isnt it

elfin mural
#

especially since nvidia is pushing the whole "neural rendering" crap to games

opaque sedge
#

Has barely been a year since i got into personal pcs too…

elfin mural
#

home computer isn't dying, i doubt it, but the days of high end personal computing is likely counting down

opaque sedge
#

Well for me its either manage to get a decent price 5080 today thru hotstock or get a 9070xt

#

I really dont wanna give up dlss but man…

elfin mural
#

the ai bubble could really pop rn

ashen swan
ashen swan
elfin mural
#

it'll hurt everyone tho, but it'll at least fix the wrongs to an extent

opaque sedge
# ashen swan Do you alr own the card ?

No i have a 4070super which is absolutely amazing but its been severely limiting for me on my ultrawide monitor, i would be completely chilling rn if i was playing on regular 2560x1440p but i’m not…

elfin mural
#

microslop's ceo cried about ppl calling ai slop

#

jensen too crying about it

#

commenting on how ai hate is bad for society

#

the ai boom is not sustainable

#

they're just trying to make everyone pretend it's sustainable

ashen swan
opaque sedge
#

The transformer model is black magic

ashen swan
elfin mural
#

because all microsoft has been doing is trying to shove ai down people's throats

elfin mural
#

microslop is a fitting name lmao

ashen swan
#

I thought

#

Micro center

#

💀

opaque sedge
elfin mural
#

precisely

#

they wanna keep selling stuff

#

if the whole industry comes crashing down, the money printer can't work as well as they want it to

ashen swan
#

Little do they know

elfin mural
#

i'm sure they know it can come crashing down, but they don't care

#

they will do whatever it takes to keep it going

ashen swan
#

Consumers consume more products tbh not like the same ammount as ai peps

#

But

#

More stable

#

Idk

elfin mural
#

they'll inevitably return to us if the ai demand disappears one day

opaque sedge
#

Yeah the 5070ti really does seem to eol

#

Not just from asus

elfin mural
#

there's no question to it

opaque sedge
#

Pny too

#

The pny models that are coming back in stock rn are going for a grand

#

Yup ngreedia definitely killed it

elfin mural
#

dram companies are either reluctant to make more factories, or it takes years to set up a fab

#

and well, if the situation solves itself by then

elfin mural
#

the excess production is just a waste of opportunity

#

they wanna sell stuff at high prices

#

not have a ton of stock and have to dump it for cheap

opaque sedge
elfin mural
#

yeah

#

that's exactly why they don't wanna overproduce

#

they'd much rather have a shortage than an overproduction

opaque sedge
#

Lol they dont believe in ai much either then

elfin mural
#

and it's also better for their income even though they might miss some potential income

opaque sedge
#

They’re just hoarding the short term profits they can rn it seems

elfin mural
#

they can charge however they please in the short term

#

and the ai datacenters will gobble it all up for however expensive it is

opaque sedge
#

Is it safe to infer that the dram manufacturers don’t have full confidence in AI? Given their current supply habits?

elfin mural
#

probably

#

setting up a fab takes years

#

and that's a lot of time spent

opaque sedge
#

And they risk oversupplying the market in case the main buyers “go away”

elfin mural
#

#

micron was sued and lost once in the 90's

#

they were price fixing back then

#

and well.. look at em now, doing it again

#

laws mean nothing nowadays

opaque sedge
#

Any chance governments will step in on this?

nocturne flicker
#

They price fix now. It is just widely accepted because we've abandoned all serious restraints on tech

elfin mural
#

zero

#

there's nothing anyone will do about this

#

if anything they get a slap on the wrist and a bill to pay up in the form of a small fine

opaque sedge
#

Hmmm i doubt future administrations would do smth either if this shit ends up being a huge foundation for the economy

nocturne flicker
#

The days of suing companies like Microsoft over monopolizing are well and truly over

opaque sedge
elfin mural
#

the only cases we see happening has only been stuff like

#

the EU slapping apple with forced usb-c standard

#

app store regulations

The last admin was the last hope we had

There is no turning back

i hate how apple maliciously complies, but then again

#

We aren't getting another Lina Khan

elfin mural
#

i sure want more chinese tech now lmao

#

at least that country is funding everything possible to start a big industry

#

i'm afraid it might end up the same, or focused within the home market

#

which as far as i've been observing, that seems to be the case

nocturne flicker
#

It is going to be in the home market. We are in another Cold War

#

Or if we somehow haven't gotten to that point despite literally having proxy wars and countries carving spheres of influence, we have been gearing up for one for years

#

Anyways, I sleep. No more old man yammers on about Cold War

opaque sedge
#

And until they do…

elfin mural
#

it's precisely why ppl are rushing to buy used stuff

#

because the new and cool stuff is too darn expensive

#

not a lot of people has the means to like

#

drop a north of 2k for a pc

#

most of em are even only able to get stuff for below 1k budget

I just bought a 9070 XT too. I was going to wait for supply to go back up before I get a 5070 Ti, or wait for next generation

yes its legit and we have all bought stuff from it

# frank oriole wait tell me why i want to hear your opinion

Gen ai has done literally nothing to make anything better for anyone. All it's done is cost money, raise ram prices, and take people's water.

Crypto is a sham, it's a bad solution and makes it way easier for bad actors to steal a ton of money from the less-well-educated.

fair onyx
# royal crow Big reason it should be killed, deefakes and NSFW stuff like that

I don't think the NSFW is bad in theory. Ido agree that it's bad when used to take the likeness of others publicly

For me. I have a very nuanced take on it because of my absolute take on freedom of speech. I think, I'm theory behind closed doors, it's freedom of speech. But when it's shared it becomes content that is defamatory in a sense

I think having a black or white stance on any topic, especially as heated as this, sets us all up to be taken advantage of and fearmongered into more intense censorship and surveillance

My stance is "something needs to be done" but my suggestion is unfortunately "I am not sure what"

elfin mural
#

the big problem with ai is that the ai companies steal copyrighted work and train off of said work

fair onyx
nocturne flicker
#

I mean, the problem with deepfakes is that even when 'behind closed doors', there is always a chance of something leaking online. Plus deepfakes in general are just particularly nasty in any context

fair onyx
elfin mural
#

i don't like the X ai edit feature myself, it's just stupid to even add

#

people are abusing it so hard

fair onyx
nocturne flicker
#

If a deepfake of a real person were to be challenged in court, it would not be protected under free speech. Anti-Deepfake laws have been passed on the state level and as far as I am aware none have been ruled unconstitutional on 1st Amendment grounds

fair onyx
#

But yes, once it becomes public, that would be a crime

fair onyx
nocturne flicker
#

No. The laws regarding them deem the creation of the deepfake illegal, regardless of if it has been made public or not

royal crow
#

I really hope the ai bubble is not a repeat of the dotcom bubble

nocturne flicker
#

Something doesn't become illegal only when it is known about by someone else

royal crow
#

If it is then ai will literally be everywhere in 20 years

#

Although thankfully not all bubbles are created equal

#

No one cares abt nfts or crypto anymore

#

Amd most people do not like Ai

proud jackal
wraith fern
nocturne flicker
#

Yes

elfin mural
#

a law can be enforced as long as there is evidence even if nobody saw a violation happen

nocturne flicker
#

Enforcement isn't even necessary for something to be illegal. All it needs is a law in place stating that the action or thing is illegal for it to be illegal

elfin mural
#

i see

nocturne flicker
#

Because the status of something being illegal means that it is, by default, breaking a law
