Cooler designs vary and some GPUs may have a mild overclock. So if you wanted a vapor chamber or liquid cooling for your GPU, then it might be worth it to spend extra. Or if you wanted RGB/no RGB. Or maybe you want a white GPU to match your white motherboard.

Dont know if this is still a thing, but the Strix series of cards have/had hand picked chips that are/were guaranteed to overclock better than the average GPU of the same type. But Asus has done a lot of fucked up shit in recent years so I’d advise avoiding that brand.

Honestly, though. It doesn’t really matter what GPU you get. They all generally can reach the same clock speeds, regardless of whether or not they have a factory OC. Furthermore, it’s not 2010s AMD anymore; even on the cheapest cards, the coolers are designed to adequately cool the GPU.

Personally I just buy whatever’s affordable/available.

Thank you. But yes it gets tiring constantly getting berated for still using Windows. I’m aware that I’m a minority, but it is frustrating that Lemmy users love to attack me for using the OS that has the features I need as my primary platform. Believe me; I’d love to move to Arch full-time, but it’s just not capable enough yet for the high end.

I’ll probably still be using the same hardware 5 years from now, so I have my fingers crossed that Linux will eventually have better support for Nvidia GPUs and HDR displays by then.

In 30+ years of PC gaming, I’ve never had anything beyond a xx70 (midrange) GPU, so when I saw that the 4090 was actually considerably more powerful than the next card down (unlike the xx90tis and GTX Titans of the past), I decided to splurge for once in my life.

I promise you I’m not rich. I just had some extra life insurance money to spend.

Yes lol. You’re still a baby. The cutoff is in your late 30s to early 40s.

I bet your knees and back don’t even hurt yet.

AMD can’t compete in the high end GPU market, but their CPUs kick ass. I play in 4K 144Hz with Ray Tracing. Find me an AMD GPU that can handle that, and I will glady sell the 4090.

Obviously but read the room.

Because most Americans don’t pay attention to politics. Like at all.

Notepad++ FTW

There is nothing “left” about tankies.

Not until they implement 3D Settings page in the Nvidia control panel, and improve upon HDR support. Do those two things, and I will finally stop having to dual boot.

Edit: And yes anticheat needs to be sorted as well, as others have pointed out.

What are some good real life examples of this? The closest I can think of is that MSI Afterburner is being maintained by one guy in Russia.

I actively avoid speaking to people at all hours of the day. People are boring, and they annoy me.

Nobody engage with this person. Just do what the other person is doing and block them.

They know deep down in their heart that Republicans have always been Fascists and Nazis. I used to vote Republican thanks to my brainwashing parents, and even then I still knew better. I used to make jokes about Nazis, as if they were no big deal. But then I grew up.

I love my Toilet Paper-Link router. It’s the only one I’ve ever owned that didn’t start randomly losing the internet connection after two years. I don’t know why every router starts acting up like that; I’ve had issues with literally every brand except this one.

How can he see me!?

Then clearly you haven’t been staying on top of current events and popular gadgets.

• Neuralink is a brain chip funded by Hitler Elon Musk.
• Flipper Zero is a tool that lets knowledgeable people hack into and do various things with devices that use radio waves.
• “Cutting off” is when a driver changes lanes in front of another driver without keeping a safe distance between vehicles.
• “Flipping off” is when you show someone your middle finger in an insulting manner.
• Traffic is caused by people in cars who neither understand how to keep a proper following distance, nor how the passing lane works. It can also be a symptom of poor public transport infrastructure.

As far as gender dysphoria… I’ll let someone more experienced in the subject tackle that one for me.

They had a device that could diagnose various illnesses simply by shoving 3 rods into your various orfices. That’s considerably more advanced than any medical tech we have today.

This is why you use thumbnail view. I thought everyone did. I mean, that’s how reddit originally was, and most of us come from there.

I disagree; people on the internet were a lot more helpful back then. These days it’s difficult to get people to care about anything, let alone compel them to help.

I don’t mean you specifically, just people like you in general. Every single time I see a post with these kind of captions in them, someone always has to show up and make a comment just like yours. It’s frustrating.

And to answer your question: yes I would. I wish all subtitles were like this.
