AMD and Nvidia clearly have different problems -- nVidia lack of memory is something that makes me happy I'm not buying a mid-tier/budget card ATM. But it is really promising to see that nVidia is adding performance benefits to its older cards as well.

nVidia will continue to push the boundaries on AI improving graphical performance/IQ. Media/influencers will briefly acknowledge it, then go back to creating lots of charts that show how GPUs compare in rasterization performance only.

No one looks good when hit pieces come out like this. Linus doesn't look good for the problems in their videos -- particularly the issue they had with Billet. Steve raises a number of very valid concerns. Serious question though -- who in their right mind has ever gone to LTT for GPU benchmarks? Aren't they the channel where you go to watch them do a build of a PC in a tank case, or describing a crazy network setup they wanted to do, or creating a insane PC to fail at playing games at 8k? Steve doesn't look good either. Not reaching out for comment demonstrates that he really isn't a journalist (so probably shouldn't be doing these kind of videos). And while he makes some great points, he comes across as petty when putting in all the value judgments in his videos -- particularly when taking issue with putting visual corrections in videos. While he may not personally like it, it is done ALL the time in video editing on YouTube. It's really unclear to me what he is trying to achieve with this piece. The aspect of his script writing (that comes off as an angry social media poster -- using words like unacceptable, incompetent, etc.) that has me watching other YouTubers more (i.e. Hardware Unboxed, Paul's Hardware, Hardware Canucks, Digital Foundry, etc.) even though I suspect Steve has a better understanding of the hardware.

General Gaming What are you playing today?
AbsolutSurgen replied to CastlevaniaNut18's topic in The Spawn Point
Watched the credits on two games tonight. Ratchet & Clank -- A Rift Apart -- solid game 8/10. A little short, but way too easy. Harry Potter -- Hogwart's Legacy -- Didn't recognize I had 30 minutes after the final boss fight to see the credits.. 8/10. The first ten hours were magic, but it couldn't keep it up. A solid 8/10. Thinking of playing through Spider-Man this week. -

Been so busy with work, that I haven't had as much to to game as I would like. I was having crashing to desktop -- someone on the Steam Forums suggested turning off Nvidia Reflex -turned off Reflex/DLSS and it completely fixed it. Really enjoying it -- probably an 8/10? I probably made a mistake playing on the default difficulty, as I'm finding the combat way too easy. But, I'm finding it a fun romp of a pallet cleanser. Graphics are solid, but I am "meh" overall on the super-saturated cartoony graphics. The Lombax fur is super well done though, and the rift mechanics are really impressive.
