What was the greatest graphics card ever? I'm thinking it was the 9800gtx. Having this in '08 was like unlocking every game in existence.
>>107598030It's zoomercore but I don't think it's really a debate, the 1080ti set the bar and basically held its own for another half a decade before finally being MILDLY superseded.
8800gt because of its value at the time
I'll vote for the 4870. AMD shook up the market at the time and made Nvidia pucker their butts.
>>107598917blower cards were so shit and loud>>107598094thanks gpt
>>107598030>9800gtxIt's literally an 8800 refresh, so if anything the 8800GTX would be the GOAT if we're talking about that era.My pick would be the Radeon 9700 it was ahead of its time and remained relevant until the GeForce 6 came out. It doesn't sound as impressive as the 1080 Ti, but you have to keep in mind the generational improvements at the time were massive.

Specifically, the coded language they use when introducing themselves unsolicited and telling you about their jobs, which no one should care about, ever. "Oooh, I'm a 'Senior', I'm a 'Principal', I'm a 'SDE4'". Lol, fuck off, you vape-puffing nothing.

>>107595585I think that was what everybody thought, that Brexit wanted to exit EU to stop EU forcing migrants down their throats.In fact there was huge uptick on all sorts of Exit movements when that was going onWhat UK doesnt realize though that even if they get rid of jews, they still have kikes at homeSo what the jews had to make sure to kill the other Exit movements, is show that doing an Exit doesn't actually get rid of the migrants but increase them, make UK an example of it that you cant really escape the kikeryAnd indeed it worked when UK was flooded by migrants even worse, it took all the wind from the sails of the other Exit movements now people barely even remember that many other countries were seriously campaigning of exiting the EU back then

This is not a drill, it's finally confirmed that China has a working EUV prototype since early 2025, it's just undergoing testing and verification right now, expected to enter large scale production by 2028-2030. >In a high-security Shenzhen laboratory, Chinese scientists have built what Washington has spent years trying to prevent: a prototype of a machine capable of producing the cutting-edge semiconductor chips that power artificial intelligence, smartphones and weapons central to Western military dominance, Reuters has learned. Completed in early 2025 and now undergoing testing, the prototype fills nearly an entire factory floor.>The availability of parts from older ASML machines on secondary markets has allowed China to build a domestic prototype, with the government setting a goal of producing working chips on the prototype by 2028, according to the two people.But those close to the project say a more realistic target is 2030, which is still years earlier than the decade that analysts believed it would take China to match the West on chips.>The breakthrough marks the culmination of a six-year government initiative to achieve semiconductor self-sufficiency, one of President Xi Jinping's highest priorities. While China's semiconductor goals have been public, the Shenzhen EUV project has been conducted in secret, according to the people.https://www.reuters.com/world/china/how-china-built-its-manhattan-project-rival-west-ai-chips-2025-12-17/
