    Micro plastic in water

    Letting industry use pretty much whatever they want has been a major problem. Despite the size of oceans, the marine environment has actually been the metaphorical Canary in the coalmine, and as well as the physical danger, certain additives have really started to affect things. Mostly...

    When the Gpu's prices will go down ?

    It's seldom that words thrown around here convey much of an image - but I'm not sure I can un-read yours now!:cry:

    Intel XeSS 1.3 accelerates into the next generation of AI upscaling

    Nvidia marketing are so good the even have unpaid volunteers (yes, I know the notoriously used to have paid focus group people, but more recently it seems that they get plenty doing that work for free)! In my half-hearted (or certainly not actioned) attempt to upgrade to a card with enough VRAM...

    SSD unpowered Data Retention

    Problem with the OP's sample of one is, well, that it is a sample of one. I rather suspect the NAND manufacturers themselves have an idea of what each of their cell designs can do. Whether the SSD and controller manufacturers do? Maybe the fully vertically integrated ones like Samsung...

    ***The Official Starfield Thread*** (As endorsed by TNA)

    But can we wait for the community to mod his posts and make them spectacular in, say, 2 years time?! :D That is the Bethesda SoftEventuallyWorks way, after all!

    When the Gpu's prices will go down ?

    Well, they won't have an easy nice jump like Samsung 8nm to TSMC's 5nm/4nm this time and AD102 is already 609mm² huge. In theory they could go multi die but rumours are they'll do AI and data centres multi die first. They should also use TSMC's 3nm but that would eat into margins. Not sure what...

    What do gamers actually think about Ray-Tracing?

    The various "what game are you playing?" threads could mostly be called "what game are you beta testing?" anyhow. Equally, the various new hardware/wi*ly waving threats. Leading edge = beta testing. In both cases: thank you all for the beta testing! But also in both cases: do not thank you all...

    What do gamers actually think about Ray-Tracing?

    I now know the answer from the RT evangelists to life, the universe and everything in a Cult-which-Jobs-build kind of way is: you are looking [at] it wrong And anyone who thinks that Cyberpunk2077 looks poor, or is too dark will get crucified. That CB2007 bar scene with the one guy looked...

    When the Gpu's prices will go down ?

    Asus Dual 7800 XT for about €425 after Asus cashback on the continent. So about £365. Nowhere near that in the UK yet. So it is possible to sell that performance on a 16GB card for that price and still make profit after all!

    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - MODS & TWEAKS

    Adding mods to a modlist... I have added a few simple ones (usually the bag of holding as I was sick of inventory management) but it is always risky. As all the modlist authors say... adding mods voids all support! :(

    14th Gen "Raptor Lake Refresh"

    Well, two things to note: Intel really has trouble keeping this thing cool. Apparently Intel have generously extended their warranty to cover de-lidding provided it is done by an OEMs. Now, point #1 and point #2 are in no way related to each others as the #2 purely due to their own generosity...

    Seasonic Releases Native 12V-2x6 (H++) Cable

    Well, you say that but weren't the ATX 3.0 buyers all volunteer beta tester?! (Even those who didn't realise they were, but on behalf of "I only ever buy tech when it is not longer leading edge" buyers I would like to say: thank you all very much!)

    4090 vs 7900xtx re-test, who has aged like fine wine?

    I'm sure chiplets will be really important but with their marketshare at an all time low, who in their right mind at RTG would embark on so risky a strategy? One halo chiplet GPU done "crazily" big (450mm² GCD with cache heavy MCDs would have made far more sense. Then maybe later a volume part...

    4090 vs 7900xtx re-test, who has aged like fine wine?

    So if Nvidia are "out fine wine'ing" AMD, does this imply that the 4090 was released before it was ready?! Anyway, the real problem is that the suite has change do much that benchmarks are not comparable...

    What do gamers actually think about Ray-Tracing?

    Or it was? A pure choice between the two with one major caveat: To do RT well, you have to design everything for only RT. Where RT is an afterthought (because raster is first to, you know, address the rest of the market - and RT users can use raster too), it tends to show up problems where...
