I got one of the early 155H intel CPU's that has two NPU cores and I've watched for it doing any **** thing.... nope.

I tried the other day and it bombed and didn't complete... probably needed a user interaction and once it rebooted I tuned out.

I mean... ARE they... REALLY any more. I would argue they are in the business of marketing AI solutions that their cards can run and are looking to move away from being called GPU's to AI Accelerators that HAPPEN to function as a GPU. LOL... had to quote that... for posterity.

I mean I'm not immune to neat tech just cause... like I did order the free keyboards from Amex back in the day that had the CC reader integrated into them... because free keyboard why not... But this is a bit TOO predatory.

We the DIY community now get well and truly hosed by the rest of the industry. Until AI datacenter production slows... or stops or hopefully reverses... we won't see product targeted to us other than stuff that was made but doesn't pass muster for enterprise consumption. Then it will take...

While thsts great... As a BFH individual I need to know about gje headsets flexibility and durability for those of us with big fin heads.

Wow... just... wow..

I like that this was engineered to be fixable.

This is why I have an extended warranty through microcenter. They won't faf about. Sure it's just sgore credit toward a new card but stil..
