    NVIDIA RTX 50 SUPER Series Might Debut at CES 26, Launch Between March-May, and Has Been Spotted on the Seasonic Website

    I'm speculating that they positioned the 5080 to provide the ability to run ultra levels of settings at 1440P where 16 GB is plenty. I run everything at max on mine and have never hit a VRAM limit. Can it do 4K? Yeah, no doubt, but there may be some limitations. Right now 1440P is the fastest...

    What is Intel Cooking for CES 2026?

    I just watched GN's synopsis. Aaaaand, much of nothing. A better integrated GPU with frame gen and voodoo math to make it look better. And some AI AI AI AI AI oh

    AMD CES 2026 Announcements – 9850X3D/Ryzen AI 400/Ryzen AI Max+/Ryzen AI PRO

    x86 rules the roost in healthcare technology, which is where I'm parked. We require Windows, and not emulated Windows. An SOC isn't going to work. At least not right now. Maybe for thin clients as Citrix is being adopted at higher rates.

    that's fine in you don't require x86 compatibility

    PC Hardware Manufacturers Answer as to Whether or Not Its Better to Use Bundled GPU Adapters or Native PSU 12V-2×6 Cables

    I'd imagine they'd need some very specialized equipment in order to monitor current load on each wire simultaneously. I think Der8auer or GN has such equipment.

    PC Hardware Manufacturers Answer as to Whether or Not Its Better to Use Bundled GPU Adapters or Native PSU 12V-2×6 Cables

    It was either GN or De8auer that tested that. Found that some wires were pulling an unusually high amount of current while others almost nothing. I agree, flawed design.

    PC Hardware Manufacturers Answer as to Whether or Not Its Better to Use Bundled GPU Adapters or Native PSU 12V-2×6 Cables

    That's correct. My 5080 came with an adapter to use 3 or 4 PCIe cables. My PSU came with the correct 12VHPWR so I'm using that.

    what is it you consider a "normal car"? Your basic base model Civic or Corolla these days can run the 1/4 mile in 15 seconds at 85-90 MPH. Certainly doesn't take a mile to hit 100. This isn't europe where our cars are neutered.

    You hit the end of a barrier like that in dang near any car and you're pretty much toast. That's a lot of concentrated force.

    From Bad to Worse, NVIDIA Reportedly Will Cut RTX 50 Series Production by 30–40% in 2026 and Might Stop Providing VRAM to Its Partners

    Eventually this will die off once someone develops a ASIC that's is a lot more powerful and efficient for specific AI needs. I'd imaging storage and memory will be condensed for clustered processing. Just have to give it time.

    The AI boom is just like the mining boom. Nvidia won't exit the consumer market, they'll just limit consumer parts production and jack up the prices while they feed the majority of their production to AI companies.
