>NEWShttps://www.jpost.com/business-and-innovation/tech-and-start-ups/article-880828Nvidia to invest billions in Israel to build a new campus there. Jensen says it's their second home.>With the official announcement, Nvidia founder and CEO Jensen Huang said: “Israel is home to some of the world’s most brilliant technologists and has become NVIDIA’s second home. Our new campus will be a place where our teams can collaborate, invent, and build the future of AI. This investment reflects our deep and enduring commitment to our families in Israel and their unique contributions to the AI era.”So TLDR if you buy an Nvidia gpu you support1. Genocide of innocent civilians2. Child Sacrifice3. Pedophilia4. Jewish power and control of western governments and institutions
I will purchase an used mobile workstation.Is mobile rtx a2000 really worth paying over something like a1000 or even older rtx3000?Usage: video rendering and blender?Is thinkpad p53 still good for these, if I want it to workfor at least 3-5 more years or should I go with something from hp or dell with a1000?Which intel cpus are safe? Is gen 12 safe from rot?
>Recommending AMD GPUs
>>107625379AMD does R&D in Israel, too. And, has for years.
>>107625389afaik, mobile Intel processors did not suffer the instability problems that plagued the 13th and 14th gen desktop i7 and i9s.
>>107625399>Shilling overpriced gpus that stutter constantlyFor shame
>>107625492Great. Another thread filled with autistic tribalism.
>>107625492Whenever AMD people dispute shit, they always post the same images of the same guy.Is he some AMD shill or paid advertiser or something?
>>107625512The nvidia user is the one inciting the brand war every thread by posting the crab image
>>107625517that's a screenshot i took 6 months ago because back then the AMD vs NVIDIA flame war was still kinda funnyand nicotroon has spammed it 17 times so far
>>107625517The Nvidia stuttering issues in UE5 games has been found by multiple review channels. Not just Daniel Owen.
>>107625517Let them buy garbage. It drives the price down of the decent components. AMD owners are like old barren women convincing young women that they made good life choices, so they can be miserable together.
>>107625520Shilling for both sides. Autists, all:>>107625379>>107625399>>107625492>>107625517>>107625542>>107625543And, you too
>>107625492>>107625542And here is tech yes city testing overwatch
>>107625520I just find it funny that one image is enough to cause this tard to have a full blown, hours long meltdown because someone insulted his 7900GRE or his special company.
>>107622069after researching a little longer>>Gigabyte GS27QA>current affordable main option>>MSI MAG 275QF>25% more expensive than main option>>Asus ROG Strix XG27ACS>40% more expensive than main optionwhich one, bros?
>>107625379>So TLDR if you buy an Nvidia gpu you support>1. Genocide of innocent civilians>2. Child Sacrifice>3. Pedophilia>4. Jewish power and control of western governments and institutionsI support all of these. I am buying more NVIDIA cards.
>>107625379all palestinians are terrorist. thank you nvidia
my pulsar xlite mouse wheel is dead -- whats a decent comany for a good light weight mouse? dont want to spend more than $50. wired is fine.
>>107625717logitech
>>107625583If you are deciding between a few Fast-IPS panels just pick the cheapest one as the performance differences between them (assuming the same max refresh rate) will be minimal and not worth any premium. Only spend more money on the display if it gives you a physically bigger screen, higher resolution, more Hz, advanced panel/backlight (Quantum Dots/MiniLED), or you go OLED.If you live in the US, the INNOCN 27G1R Plus is $20 cheaper than even the Gigabyte GS27QA for the same specs (and most likely the same underlying panel).https://www.amazon.com/INNOCN-Gaming-Monitor-FreeSync-Extreme/dp/B0CJFPXTXG
Thread is completely dead kek
>>107625889Good.
do I need a heatsink for a gen4 nvme if I'm using it as the primary boot/os drive and it's going to be sitting half underneath the GPU? are heatsinks worth it in general or just a marketing gimmick?
>>107625950Just use the ones that came with the MB.
>>107625950Best practice to use one, especially if it's your main drive. Cheap insurance.
Can somebody tell me the point of DLAA when all it does is tax the gpu for minimal gain?In some cases you actually use detail over just playing the fucking game native
>>107625950>or just a marketing gimmickThis.Gen4 NVMe doesn't get hot enough to warrant the need of a heatsink. Expecially when it's just a boot drive. NVMes only get hot when they are being written to, NOT read, but being written to. If it's an OS drive it will have minimal writes. Even if you are writting big files, as in 600GB+ files, then it might get slightly hotter, but not hot enough to damage it.Gen5 NVMe is the same. Except if you are writing big files then it might be worth getting a 3rd party heatsink. Gaming doesn't write big files constantly. Writing big files is things like video editing or music production or working on 3D stuff. But being an OS drive, then it's not worth it.tldr, if you're using a Gen4 NVMe then don't waste your money. If you're using Gen5 then only get it if you work on big files, not for a boot drive or as a game drive.
>>107625889nicotroon stopped arguing with xerself
>>107626000Best AA that has ever existed. You only uses it when you have HP to spare, or you are playing a movie game.
>>107626040i can run it but that doesn't account for the loss of detail and extra strain when using particle effectsWould it make a bigger difference under 4k native because I'm not seeing it
