    Dev at id Software says Microsoft 'burned a lot of bridges' in the industry

    Well Microsoft may not need to have many game studios if they are going to drop XBox or the overhead. With current hardware roadblocks, losing to Sony in a big way, concentrating on AI. Games maybe not in the forefront or top ten for Microsoft. Plus has not game pass failed! Not even remotely...

    Dev at id Software says Microsoft 'burned a lot of bridges' in the industry

    The talent is not gone, those fired employees especially those who are masters at game programming have an opportunity to form a new game company. Get Carmack back, investors and make a new IP. Screw MS, the remaining ID employees, who are good can leave as well and leave MS with nothing. It has...

    Will 2027 next gen video cards get rid of the 12VHPWR and be safer?

    One can remove the burnt up plastic section of the connector and if the posts solder junctions are still OK, shunt posts (+12v) 1,2,3,7,8,9 with a copper plate, holes drilled and soldered directly to the posts, from the copper plate you can have any kind of hookup one wants. For the Common, do...

    Zen 7 Rumours / AMD "Zen 6" ISA to Bring AVX512 FP16, VNNI INT8, and More

    Zen 7 one year after Zen 6 I find doubtful. AMD would probably not even have their full Zen 6 lineup out in 2028. Just rumors or planted mis directions.

    NVIDIA and OpenAI Reportedly Discuss $250 Billion Deal for 10-Gigawatt Ohio Data Center

    Considering China has over 4x the capacity of electrical power of the US, they are not limited by power, limited by chips and access to them. US is not limited by chips but electrical power and now memory. Agree on the nuclear power debacle of the 80's. I and two others on the USS Pollack while...

    How AI will fail

    We need all of these power plants to power the next strategic defense systems all throughout the US, big lasers. :D Joking aside, the do it all big AI systems seems to be the wrong target. Smaller, independent, locally run specialized systems that can link up as needed for a given problem seems...

    DLSS 5.0

    I concur about noticing better with OLEd lower frame rates but also hesitation, stutter sticks out like a sore thumb. IPS does blur more in motion but I don’t think it is at. Going to try to capture with slow-mo on an iPhone. Sunday or Monday.

    DLSS 5.0

    Frame Gen so far has been game specific if useful but now I see it can be hardware affected too. 5090 on ASUS ROG Swift 4k OLED, 240hz, terrible fringing in motion, artifacts, HDR on in Doom TDA. On the 5070 Ti, 165hz 3440x1440p, IPS not using HDR but identical settings besides resolution and...

    DLSS 5.0

    This is tech we have to see in action and not a restricted demo. How does that subsurface scattering look while in motion? Fast motion? How does the lighting which is not being calculated per pixel in the rendering pipeline but by AI after the rendering? Performance impact? Plus it would be...

    DLSS 5.0

    The incentives for the producers, get game out earlier, get costs down and layoff the programmers/team earlier vice spending another 6 months to a year. Get income earlier, save costs $$$$. Too bad a potential great game comes out sucking instead for most part due to performance issues and game...

    DLSS 5.0

    I rather developers, artist work on the game vice moving sliders for trivial differences which has a cost. A cherry-picked demonstration, no rapid movement, no performance cost info. Pointless. As for FG and Nvidia, use it when it does not degrade image quality significantly and increases...

    Thermal Grizzly Wire View Pro 2

    That is good, I think this should be a more Nvidia driven hardware requirement. What would it have on price, $30 additional to the cost? And then have Driver support for monitoring and protection as well as firmware level protection. Older cards had load balancing, fuses etc. to prevent issues.

    Thermal Grizzly Wire View Pro 2

    The upper end video cards that use this type of 12v connections should have exactly these types of functions as WireViewPro II. It is light weight enough that I don't worry about it being installed. Comes with pwr and reset switch Y cable which I did not hook up, assuming with their software you...

    Thermal Grizzly Wire View Pro 2

    Seeing how just plugging the cable in can have varying results from one time to the next speaks loudly how poorly this design is. Bought and received Wire Pro 2.

    GPU prices — is the worst behind us ?

    I have both, for the money the 9070XT wins hands down for gaming Frame/$. If other factors are involved, AI, professional programs then the 5070Ti becomes more worth it.
