RTX 50 Super: might launch in Q4 '25, 24GB VRAM for 5070 Ti & 5080 Super, 18GB for 5070 Super.

>Omissions
RTX 5070: buy if it's reasonably priced & if you plan to work around potential VRAM bottlenecks.
RX 9070 non-XT: worth considering if it's significantly cheaper than the 9070 XT.

Intel 13 & 14th gen i7/9 -K CPUs: BIOS update required due to reliability issues. Recommended to set a CPU VR voltage limit (1.4 or 1.45V).

1440p 27 is better ppi than 24 1080p and more immersive, 60 fps feels like molasses once you experience 120fps+. Also good 1440p monitors with 144hz or more cost less than 300 USD now. You are near homelessness tier poverty and seething.

5080 or 5090 (preferrable) if you do ai video upscaling.

very high polling rate keyboards are stupid. past 1000hz is diminishing returns for a lot of devices and just eats up cpu performance. just invest in better key switches that activate faster because they have less travel time.

270p video to 1080p. It is magical how good it turned out though.

I can show what the upscaler is capable of.

I'm testing out the interpolation now. I've seen videos that were rendered with svp where it made a noticable difference. that rife/svp interpolation is supposed to be faster.
I'm not sure if there's any gpu on the market that can interpolate 8k60 to 8k120 in real time.

>I've seen videos that were rendered with svp where it made a noticable difference. that rife/svp interpolation is supposed to be faster.
rife is really cool. but different models for it vary for different videos. for instance earlier versions tend to do better for anime while the up to date versions are more optimized for realistic films.
