    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    Founders edition is by far the nicest looking card of the bunch, anxious to see thermals and performance #'s as I reckon this will be the first time I actively try to get the FE card.

    I have my 3080 zotac preorder from amazon last week still. Hope it goes through and they correct price but I’m not banking on it. Pissed I missed msi today 🤯🤬

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    Agreed, if you felt confident you could go head to head with Nvidia to me you’d leak something this week before ampere launch to give people like me a decision to make. Paper launch 6 weeks after Nvidia hardware hits stores is basically sneaking in your product hoping people have issues with...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    I'd expect x670 to drop sometime next year at the earliest - they have a new b520 coming and just released b550 recently. Not sure how much more they can improve AM4 tbh and I imagine the x670 boards will be expensive af

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    I hope that is another fake, because while a 30% performance increase is nothing to sneeze at - 30% more power usage for 30% more performance is a lousy trade off imo. Would be pretty funny though, after watching Nvidia's best and exciting GPU launch (to me anyways) that they fall well short...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    Why the fuck are they taking so long. They should do a paper release this month to get peoples heads turned (assuming they'll be able to do that) and then physical launch next month. Give us something to think about - as it stands, assuming I can get my hands on a 3080 at launch I couldn't give...

    Dune (2020)

    Glad its releasing this year, but this trend of using trailers to announces trailers needs to die a horrible death. Super lame.

    Ya I've been playing it quite a bit - threw on a Dave Matthews cd, drank a few capri suns and relived high school. Was a blast!

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Also on that Xbox Series S, it's a nice looking piece of hardware. I genuinely dislike the PS5 but this little brick looks pretty clean to me. Looks like Sony pricing gets unveiled tomorrow as well as pre-orders.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    I think it's a great strategy and Xbox can move a lot of boxes this way. I won't buy one (have a great pc and can play all Xbox games that way), but I won't be buying PS5 for a while either until their exclusives start dropping. I think you absolutely nailed who will be buying these things and...

    Gmail - What's your oldest email?

    2000, first year of college. I rolled into Freshman Comp and the teacher is going around asking for everyone's e-mails, names, where you're from etc. Everyone has pretty normal e-mails but I'm shitting bricks as I only had one e-mail address at the time. She gets to me; name: Springbok; where...

    They are indeed slow AF - I bought a Lian Li Lancool Mesh II case from them weeks ago (out of stock everywhere else and resellers have taken over). Paid retail, free shipping (3 day, allegedly)... that fucking case sat in their "warehouse" for 3 days and didn't show up until the middle of the...

    Best Sports Game of All Time

    There are a handful of masterpieces - I'll start with Tony Hawk. If surfing and snowboarding are sports, so is skateboarding and I got 100's of hours with those games in high school & college. NCAA football 2001/2002, FIFA etc. Tiger Woods' old games were awesome too. Basketball games have...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    I suspect if you don't get in on the first wave of cards you might be shit out of luck until the new year. Hope I'm wrong, but all signs pointing to stock being pretty limited and using the Samsung 8nm node isn't going to help anything as the yields are dog shit.

    Wasteland 3

    Finished this morning - had a good time, but remain extremely confused by all the glowing reviews this got. Feels like to me, reviewers are so anti-GAAS or anti-AAA that any decent indie game gets hyped to the moon. For me this was about a 7/10. Buggy as fuck, tons of frame rate drops, long...

    Marvel's Avengers

    Haven't had a chance to jump into this between Wasteland 3 and Tony Hawk (will probably wait until I can snag a 3080), but it appears the devs are working and listening to players so that's a good sign. Hopefully a lot of the big bugs are squashed by the time I get into this.

    Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 & 2 Remaster

    This is superb. I snagged for £30 and it’s easily a £60 game. This is what remakes or remasters should be, A+ from me, but I’m so shitty compared to 16 year old me haha

    I can't stand it either, it looks like something a high school kid would put in a powerpoint presentation to "jazz it up".

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    No doubt, particularly in the drivers and RTX/DLSS department. Another thought I had this morning since announcement earlier this week - while all signs point to these cards being excellent performers, particularly in RTX settings, what purpose is there for Nvidia to sit on benchmarks/reviews...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    While true, I have a reasonable concern the other way. AMD is now utilizing TSMC nodes almost exclusively and they are light years ahead of Samsung (and others). I suspect they will be producing 5nm at the time Samsung gets its yields on 7nm to an appropriate level. This probably won't...

    Like most O-State guys, Smarticus is a straight dog. Every team needs a guy like that (Tony Allen, Jimmy Butler, Morris Sr. etc) That's what the Mavs are missing - a tough, good defender who just straight up wants to win. Smart is such a big part of what Boston does - Tatum, Brown, Kemba get...

    Ya, single player impressions look much better than I assumed they'd be after playing Beta. Seems like a pleasant surprise, but want to wait until I can get a 3080 to dive in here
