As long as it's not Nvidia then its an upgrade

amd shouldn't even be allowed to advertise how much "vram" they have because it's not that real deal NVIDIA good shit

Only difference is Nvidia's AI accelerated VRAM usage for higher performance with less.

I bought the one by Sapphire. Didn't even upgrade the rest of my machine and I'm able to play everything again (yay UE5 slop finally playable).
The retard build I'm on for the while:
> 9070 XT
> 3700X w/ stock heatsink+fan
> 16GB DDR4 CL16-19-19-39

These ram prices might force me to buy future upgrade's today

Stallman unironically advocated for legalizing sex with minors, he's even less of a human. Idk how that being that looks like a pig and smells like a pig ever became popular.

Terry was genuinely smart but sadly his schizo took him from us. God takes the best so that humanity will always be a puppet.

Besides the youtube thing, I feel that the whole lossless thing is pretty much irrelevant. I still can hear around 20 kHz, but mostly it's some cymbals and percussion overtones. And it's not like tone, but more of the airy feeling. It's not that useful. Besides even if you can distinguish it, what is the point? You can focus on it, but it's not 'critical music listening'. It's just some stupid game 'what can I hear'.

>>107258615
it just makes more sense to store files in a lossless format unless you are hurting for disk space. As for listening more, clearer details are always welcome even if you are not focusing on them, but the difference between HQ MP3 and FLAC is so miniscule that it's not significant 99.9% of the times. There's a lot of fart sniffing in the audio world, look at the Sannon-Nyquist theorem and then tell me why some people seek 192kHz audio files

>>107258769
>it just makes more sense to store files in a lossless format unless you are hurting for disk space
It does yeah. At least for the peace of mind. I have a home server and store flac too. I just kinda on the fence should I or not.
>>107258769
>why some people seek 192kHz audio files
That's I just don't understand. I send 192khz at my reaciver, but I'm not really sure why.

>>107258769
it's in a funny spot where there's both no reason to use flac and also no reason not to.
you likely have plenty of space, so may as well get flacs, if you don't, then don't worry about it, because the difference is basically none
>That's I just don't understand. I send 192khz at my reaciver, but I'm not really sure why.
not him, but the limit of human hearing is ~20kHz, and even that is /generous/, like that's about where the threshold of hearing meets the threshold of pain in ideal circumstances (like when you're an actual baby that hasn't yet had any wear on your hearing).
the nyquist-shannon sampling theorem /proves/ that a sampling twice the rate of the source signal is mathematically lossless, that is, 40kHz can perfect capture a 20kHz signal. practically, there are other considerations such as aliasing, so you usually want a bit more than 40kHz, but even CD's 44.1kHz is enough. many DACs are designed to run at 48kHz since it's just easier to design them that way. anything over that for recording is just for mixing or non-human-listening purposes, and any playback over that is just for non-human-listening purposes. there is absolutely /nothing/ to be gained by playing music at 192kHz over 48kHz, not even in theory

yeah because windows is just so much better where the current status is to give every random exe administration permission because of that culture of "installing" that means copying to system folders and adding a bunch of registry key nobody asked for and impossible to cleanly uninstall even if your "non-middleman"/"non-centralized" repo isn't malware in the first place

You've got way more endurance than what the health indicator says, which is just tracking LBA writes vs. warranty.

If it's a system drive or holds important data, you'll want to ensure it's backed up when it says bad, but you don't need to replace it until the uncorrectable error count starts decreasing (note: SMART wear attributes read backward, they start at 100 and count down to 0, they don't always count 1=1, but 100 = perfect and 0=ded)

Without even looking at the pic:
If you do backups properly
->You're fine
If you don't do backups
->Retard.

>OpenGL or Vulkan?
OpenGL because Vulkan doesn't support african GPU and requires very expensive GPU.
OpenGL = more customers.

Also programming OpenGL is much better than Vulkan.

Is there even any evidence that Vulkan is faster than OpenGL and how much?

>>107254776
Why would you learn a dead API that was always shit and isn't even guaranteed to work properly depending on drivers?

There's no reason to learn OpenGL, especially in 2025. If anything the question is between Vulkan and DX12, in which case go with DX12 if you want a job in the gaming industry, otherwise Vulkan (it also avoids being tied to the whims of Microsoft, which is why I went with Vulkan).

>AI is useful technology, but no AI company makes money. Their revenue is vanishingly marginal.
First of all, all the AI companies have to give away their products for free to gain market share in this new technology, so for now, none of them are making money. But they will make money, if you dont believe me, tell me how much Google charges you to use their search engine? How much does Facebook charge its customers? These tech giants are the most valuable companies in the world and make all their money from ads and dont charge customers a dime.

>make suggestive dance behind a male co-worker

>>107258508
No amount of sponsored content in chatbots will make AI companies as profitable as Google or Facebook.

Even if these companies are too big to fail, once AI technology hits its plateau, it's usefulness will be extremely limited and it's profitability mostly inorganic.

>>107258508
They have also been propped for information control which is far more valuable than ads and follow the same model as AI so a very valid response.

>expecting spatial awareness from an LLM
they use image embedders to describe images, retard. not image tokens directly. they have no spatial intuition, and since they would never process ASCII art using the same image embedding features as they do for images (rather ingesting text tokens directly), no current training method would produce the intuitive link between images and ascii art.

3DMark 2001: SE was the last 3DMark to use Remedy's MaxFX game engine that powered Max Payne 1 and 2 (and later Alan Wake). This version of MaxFX uses DX8.1 like Max Payne 1, but also ads a rely early version of the Havok physics engine. Max Payne 2 from 2003, shipped with a version of the engine that uses DX 9.0c and Havok Physics. 3D Mark shifted to a different engine for 3DMark 2003.
