The 4090 didn't get a Super or a TI so I doubt the 5090 will. The 4060 had a Ti, the 4070 had a Super, Ti, and Ti Super and the 4080 got a Super. When the 4080 got a Super the memory amount stayed the same so I think the same with happen with any 5080 revision. Well I am right so far about no 5090 ...

Quit crying over expensive products. You might not be aware that instead of paying the import taxes those companies will just stop bringing in those products to the US and those products will instead end up going to other locations. I hear graphics cards are starting to become easier to find in Eur...

'Stormed the Capitol' lol are you serious? Those were simply tourists.

Ooo a Thess sighting. Hi!

I would tell you not to bother to engage with kool-aid drinking Winnow but then again what else is there to do around here.

Biden in office: OMG a recession? Worst president EVEAG!>!?

Trump in office: (Forced) Recessions happen. Big deal.. Who cares.

I hate how that word (slop) has become a generic word these days to easily dismiss something. Same as, and usually in combination with, 'woke' or 'dei'.

I decided since my MB has 7 NVMe slots that I'll use two of them to mirror my OS drive via RAID 1. I can't say I've ever done that before so will see how it goes! I used the $50 gift card from the power supply so the 1TB 990 Pro only set me back ~$55. Cheap! I've never had an SSD fail before but it'...

Apple seems to support the iPhone for longer than Android. While I didn't have the latest OS on my nearly 10 year old 6S (I think it was 15.28 or something) it was still getting security updates. Samsung and Google are up to 7 or 8 years on their support but it's not standardized and others are onl...

Trump just got his 10% tariffs and fucked China in the process. If you think China is the one that got fucked here you're delusional. They are just going to make deals with other countries. The same goes for all those other countries like Vietnam. I don't think China is going to cave on this so enj...

Cancelled after Season 4.

From what I can tell it ended on a season finale however they are editing that episode in some fashion to turn it into a series finale so at least you get a conclusion to the series and are not left hanging. I haven't yet bothered to watched Season 4 yet.

Aslanna

I know you're eager to be a Trump cheerleader but don't get too excited. U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday said he would be announcing the tariff rate on imported semiconductors over the next week, adding that there would be flexibility with some companies in the sector. The president's pledge m...

In my haste to order stuff I didn't really notice what RGB the Hyper Vision cooler had. I thought the fans would be the usual light up variety but it's only a thin border around the side of the fans. They are fairly quiet though so no complaints there. Also the LCD wasn't as interesting as I thought...

Aslanna

I'll make a deal with you.. You stop falling for the Republican party line and I'll stop falling for whatever you think it is Apple is doing. Or has done. Pick one.

Aslanna

I didn't hate them back then. Hated them post 2017. Id guess that was around the time they got caught screwing their own customers over by intentionally slowing their OS on old phones to get you to buy a new one even though the old one was capable of much faster operating speeds. You keep throwing ...

Aslanna

Oddly, I also like the heavier cheap phone. Feels better in my hand with my cheap thin case. Since everything is cloud based, even ChatGPT works perfectly fine on it which you'd want to use anyway since Apple Siri sucks something awful and Apple is way behind in AI since they haven't found a way to...

Next year when it’s time for a new battery the iPhone 16 should be out so I’ll probably look to upgrade at that time rather than replace the battery again. From what I’ve read it seems the 15 has been a bit of a mess so I will skip those. In no hurry! That's about how it worked out. I went with a 1...

Yeah I'm not up to date on latest cooling stuff. I ended up going with a brand I had never heard of and bought the Thermalright Hyper Vision ARGB. I guess they are on the new side so we'll see what sort of longevity these things have. $160 for a 360 radiator, 3 fans (which I'll probably replace if ...

I don't feel bad for Apple. At all. I don't feel bad for any major corporation. I'm not sure why you seem to think I do. I feel bad for the people who are barely getting by and will be hit the hardest by this nonsense. Funnily enough I imagine a large portion of those people voted for Trump. So I do...

1500W is definitely overkill for this build but Corsair only seems to sell one 1200W power supply and it's the same price as the 1500W so I figured why not go large. The efficiency ratings seem about the same. Maybe I'll do some quick research to check if having too large of a PSU for a smaller load...

1. 128 MB RAM. I updated to 128 awhile back. RAM is cheap and AI stuff takes advantage of it as overflow sometimes if you really want to use an LLM that doesn't fit into VRAM (just a lot slower). 64 is absolute minimum these days but I'd highly recommend just getting 128 to start with. A bit of a c...

Aslanna

I wasn't planning on upgrading until near the end of the year or early 2026 but with large tariffs potentially driving up prices on components I decided maybe I should put together something now. So it's a it of a panic-buy build I suppose since I don't have time to do as much research as I typicall...

Aslanna

With the whole trade war thing going on now I was thinking i might buy a bunch of components and put something together sooner rather than later as I doubt things will stay at current prices for long. GPUs are already expensive and hard to find so I'd probably just stay with my 3080Ti as I don't rea...

Aslanna

You sure are stuck on Apple for some reason. Who is making excuses for them? I couldn't give a shit about Apple. These tariffs are not targeting Apple specifically. Whether the corporations can afford to eat the costs isn't the point because anyone with a brain knows they won't. And what's your rewa...

Aslanna

Trump always goes overboard initially as a negotiating tactic. We'll see how it goes the net 4 years. Recessions happen. The point is this one, if it happens, didn't need to. It also didn't happen under Biden. Funny how blind you are and how you'll go out of your way to make excuses for the orange ...

Golden Age. Too funny. After what he's done to the stock market this year with his tariff bullshit we'll be lucky if we survive this and not end up in the fucking Bronze Age in 4 years. Or 8 years if he somehow manages a third term. Which isn't out of the realm of possibility considering he owns the...

Make Polio Great Again! RFK Jr may be the single worst pick that Trump has done this go around. And if you've seen some of his other picks you know that's saying something. But Republicans are too busy with wanting to "pwn the libs" and kissing Trump's ass instead of actually supporting pu...

Man, i went ahead and paid $20 to try out ChatGPT 4o Image for a month. Grats on wasting $20. I had it create a likeness of the female wizard on the cover of EverQuest. It actually created it so mini success: https://www.veeshanvault.org/forums/download/file.php?id=744&mode=view Sure, a success...

…but the whole AI stuff as a whole does have some positive uses. What are some of these positive uses that actually work? The chatbots have a 60 percent error rate and it’s not the timesaver that AI companies claim it to be. I gave an example in the very post you are responding to. Chatbots suck.

Aslanna

While it can be used for criminal industry it can also not be. Not every image generator needs to be trained on the art of other people. For example a game studio could train an art model on only their art, or feed it all their design materials, and then use that to create mockups and prototypes for...

This maybe could have been an interesting discussion but then you done went and fucked it all up by throwing out 'woke' whenever possible. 5 uses of the word in the initial post and 7 in the second. It's just MAGA dog whistling at that point.

Hands.. The first thing I look at when I see images/videos these days. And hers are horrifying in motion.

From all accounts it sounds like the 50 series "launch" has been a shit show. I remember a time when, if you wanted a graphics card, you could go out and buy one. It would be the specs listed and it wouldn't potentially burn your house down due to a poorly designed power connector. Then al...

Is the software still eating old threads? I went looking for the Anthem thread, which I know there was one, and it's nowhere to be found.

This isn't the only example either. The Dragon Age Inquisition thread also isn't anywhere.

Well there's a shock... The internet was freaking out about nothing. 4 'old' xbox games coming to Switch and PS5: Hi-Fi Rush, Pentiment, Sea of Thieves, and Grounded. That's it. All those xbox fanatics can stop their crying now. But it was quite entertaining for the past two weeks so I'm sad that i...

According to a posted spreadsheet my local Micro Center had 4 5090s and 80 5080s. Sucks for the people who lined up waiting if that's an accurate count. I thought the whole reason NVidia stopped making 4090s a few months ago was to build up stock of the new cards. I guess not! I suppose that was jus...

Aslanna

With the cooling improvements to the FE cards I think I'd probably go with one of those. The third-party boards usually come with a bit of a premium on the cost. And I don't care about all the RGB and shit most of them have.

Aslanna

The 4090 was $1600 and now the 5090 is $2000. Scared to see how much the 6090s will be. I have a 800W power supply so I'm not even sure I could run a 5080 since I think the recommendation for that is 850W. It would probably be fine but other than FOMO there's no need for me to upgrade. I don't even ...

Based on the episode release schedule I'll just wait until they are all aired before bothering with it.

RTX 5070 - $549 RTX 5070 Ti - $749 RTX 5080 - $1000 RTX 5090 - $2000 According to Nvidia the 5070 gives "4090 l(levels of) performance" but supposedly people are saying that figure comes from comparing DLSS 3 numbers (2x) with DLSS 4 (4x). So in actuality it's marketing smoke and mirrors a...

I have a total blind spot when it comes to anything Atari after the 2600 since I moved to a Commodore 64 from there, with a TI-994a in between, and then to PC. For some reason I bought a 7800 from eBay a few years ago but never messed around with it. Since it was a snow-day yesterday (and today) I d...

The PSN whiners are ridiculous. Especially since you already have a PSN account. It's not like it is a separate launcher or anything. Even for those who need to create one just make shit up. It's not like they verify your name and whatever else they require. Having said that I think if Sony buys the...

Go go Astro Bot wooo! I really hope they leaned from all the feedback and make a Best DLC/Expansion category. Something I myself suggested months ago in this very thread!.

Three+ years later and still nobody wants to upgrade to Windows 11 due to how bad it is. 10 months to go until end of updates in Oct-2025.

I also have a bid in on an Amiga 1000. That's the first Amiga released and the one I wanted back in the day. I think it's a great design where the keyboard slides under the computer.

I have added an Amiga 500+ to the mix in the past week :(. I definitely need to sell one of the other 2 500s I have but I will swap the keyboard as the 500+ I got on eBay came with a UK keyboard.
