I still run a lot of my games off of spinning rust. Boot times are a little bit longer, but at least i can store a ton of games.

If you have a $3k GPU, definitely feels that way!

not sure what you mean.

The power supply would just provide an additional voltage, they currently provide 3.3V, 5V and 12V, they could also provide 48v too.

Definitly feels like we need to increase the voltage. Stepdown transformers are extremely efficient, and could be card side.

I really love my Quest 3 headset, and i think the investments into VR is some of the best money that Facebook has spent… for me as a consumer.

I dont think that the metaverse is worth the electrons used to send it though.

Honestly, this is close to an ideal use of it, IMO

You still have human devd making the game, but if I had a specific bed spread I wanted in game, this gives me a bit of power

god, i 100% the SR the third… .and i cant remember a single thing about it.

No, things will be worse.

But at least the performance increase will be larger!

I’m getting to the point where i would love to replace my 3070, it getting quite long in the tooth, but cant see doing that for at least another generation or two with these prices!

It did, in the broadest possible interpretation of the term.

In any practical interpretation, it didn’t, and it was so silly

yea, this year i likely financially stable enough I can make some donations to worthy organizations. Having a baby & 18m of maternity leave took all our money!

hmm, yea, i butchered that.

Cant believe that only $33.66 of my tax goes to it, and i shoudl start donating $29 to ‘bring up’ my tax donation to the G7 average.

wait, so only $29 of my tax goes to CBC?

Mine came about 2 seconds after the shaking,

That’s what annoys me.

I do like the idea of getting rid of the double 8 pin connector, but the new one could have had 30%< 50% more area, been way more secure, and STILL more compact than the old one

Fair, but I’d kill for more (good) surviving mars DLC.

I loved Green Planet, and desperately want Surviving Venus it Surviving Pluto expansions

thats a really cool looking game

What did you not like about 3?

I loved one and two, missed 3, but started playing it recently

I’d love to visit Yellowstone, or do some hiking of Mt Saint Hellens with my kid… Not happening for a while.

I genuinely believe that some AI enhancement, a la DLSS, is the future. I’m very wary of frame generation, and that said, i do NOT think it or frame generation should be used in the advertised increase.
