Not to say mine is bigger than yours, but our last SQL on premise server has 64cores and 1TB ram. From then on everything goes to the cloud.

apples and oranges my friend, apples and oranges. I think SQLserver would be the worst example. AFAIK SQLserver benefits more from more cores than faster cores.

SQL server is muticore happy, so I don't think it would benefit as much.

This has been the wholly grail ever since hyperthreading and multicore were introduced. It's literally been decades since I saw the first efforts to make multicores work as one.

I have an Intel Optane SSD gaining dust somewhere. There was also the micron versión IIRCñ I'm pretty sure there were other competing technologies that never came out. And every now and then a new memory tech emerges promising the perfect como RAM/NAND. who knows maybe this is the one that will...

So what makes them different when all the others have failed?

I think MS doing the right move. They went the "easy" route. Porting the xbox core to a more open platform would have been quite a challenge. And going the emulation route, wasn't probably the best idea, since you would need a much beefier hardware. Today it doesn't seem like the current xbox...

Fiber, ISP already replaced the modem, I live in an apartment building and AFIAK the problem is general, it started about a month ago when there was an car accident and a pole went down. So no internet for about a day till they fixed it. Soon after that, intermittence.

So, I've been having cuts in the internet service. Like 2 or 3 times a day, they are usually short, like 1 minute tops, but sometimes longer like 20 min. Is there a free tool to monitor my internet connection so I can show it to my ISP?

I also think it's a driver update issue, thing is the last time it happened, I checked the driver version, I reinstalled the driver from windows update and the version was the same.

Really? Ever heard of Duke Nukem Forever? :):D AFAIK Matrox cards are based on AMD chips. I recall reading that somewhere.

I would think so but reinstalling the driver either from windows update or intel fixes the problem. It doesn't happen right after installing windows updates, unless they are being installed automatically and I miss it.

Back when DLSS came out, I said native rendering was dead. While DLSS wasn't really good, it showed promise. DLSS 2 set the bar and even now its the one to beat by competitors. Now everyone and their granma are jumping on the bandwagon. Nowadays I will always use DLSS on supported games, in...

gotta say I like the design, but if I was going for a RTX5080; I see no reason to get this over a RTX5080FE.

yup it was a flop, I think it was the last matrox card aimed at gaming. It was the mother of multimonitor gaming. which actually was the route Matrox took. with cards aimed at video walls mutimonitor cards
