Valhalla’s FSR won’t work unless you have an AMD card: it literally crashes if you try to enable it with an nVidia card, to where you have to find the configuration ini file and manually edit it to disable fsr So, Valhalla is actually programmed better than previous AC entries at least. Odyssey runs way worse.

FWIW, Far Cry 6 ran at a constant 80-90 for me and AC Valhalla was 70 on average (it runs better than either Origins or Odysee )

I think the 45% increase of the GeForce 4 Ti 4600 vs the GeForce 3 Ti 500 works pretty well

I just checked benchmarks, and I realized they’re ignoring refreshes. To get to that huge of a jump from the 9xx to the 10xx, it would be the 980 vs the 1080, which ignores the 980 Ti. The jump from the 980 Ti was around a 30% increase for the 1080.

Yea, I’m not counting refreshes of an active generation vs a previous generation. Just top end of the previous generation (ie: GeForce 2 Ultra) vs top end of a new generations launch (ie: GeForce 3, not the Ti 200 and 500 which were the refresh). The 980 Ti was a marvel even vs the base 980, though. It still can run most games maxed out (obviously no ray tracing and not with maxed AA) at 1440p and get around 60fps.

Don’t you have a 12900k?

It’s funny because my initial thought was the 980 vs the 780… but the 980 wasn’t that much faster, it just ran a lot cooler and had way less power consumption. So, I thought “oh, maybe the GeForce 3 vs GeForce 2 Ultra”… no, the GeForce 2 Ultra BEAT the GeForce 3 in DX7 benchmarks with the GeForce 3 only winning (noticeably) in DX8 games. Which is weird as I remembered how badly I wanted a GeForce 3 for the new DX8 features (pixel and vertex shaders) and hated being stuck on a GeForce 2 Pro at the time (even though apparently performance was almost 1:1 in most games ) - I guess the 3 wasn’t worth it until the Ti 500 came out. Then I remembered my next card was a GeForce 4 Ti 4600 so I checked the benches and damn, it was 45% faster than the GeForce 3 Ti 500. Absolute night and day performance gap.

I’ve been thinking about the reviews and, even without AI frame generation, I’m honestly trying to think of the last time we had a performance gap this large. I went back and looked at some benches for some cards I remember being a big deal, and I think the closest I may have found is the performance jump of the GeForce 4 Ti 4600 vs the GeForce 3 Ti 500

Lol that you think he’ll testify. This is to cause a tantrum from him.

The American public’s memory is shorter than a gold fish. Now is the time.

I don’t believe so, but I walked away from the TV for a couple minutes so I may have missed it

Doing it live during this hearing will likely cause a ratings boost and/or more people to view it later and overall. This is a Trump-esq reality TV tactic.

Not sub-based services, ones you can buy/rent from.

Crazy dedicated

It was easy for about 10-15 minutes if you checked newegg and maybe some manufacturer store sites fwiw. BestBuy never showed any stock, I don't believe Amazon did either, nor did nVidia's store. However, I don't think these will be too hard to find after a few shipments.

I saw a video that was labeled "please don't even think about under volting your 4090", but I didn't watch it because I hate those click bait titles

Sounds like the BIOS may be capped at 480watts, so a 4x 8pin cable may not make a difference anyway too. However, the person who noted that in that reddit thread also mentioned that going from 300w to 450w only nets a ~2% difference, so 450w to 600w is likely similar.

Looks like he was able to get the AI traffic routines and hit boxes all adapted to the new graphics and working well a couple months ago, so maybe it's farther along than I thought!

Then how are there so many unboxings from places? MADDENING!

I think it's still very early.

Lol I think I misread your post; I somehow read "I really like" as "I really dislike"

Is this a thing again for the bivalent booster or were people supposed to do the 15min wait with the previous booster as well? I ask because with my initial vaccination, both shots, they required me to sit for 15min, but with my booster (third shot) after the Pharmacist gave it to me I asked if I needed to hang out for 15min, he asked if I had any reactions to the previous two shots, after I said "no" he said "there's really no need, then. You can hang around for a bit to make sure, but you should be good".
