  1. MSI GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16G VANGUARD SOC LAUNCH EDITION Video Card Review

    Vanguard, 1099. Plain ASUS 750. Performance very similar. Hmmmmm ......but I guess you get that little figurine....
  2. Testing Shows Recent NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 FE Cable Meltdown May Be Due to Uneven Power Distribution

    The only reason there haven't been more reports? There are like 12 people world-wide who actually have one.
  3. “I Guess It Was a Matter of Time”: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Power Connector Melted While Playing Battlefield V, User Says

    Guy reused a cable. Appears to be capable of jacking into the psu directly. Doesnt look like an extension, male plugs on both ends. 5090 pulls more than 4090, no doubt. My money is on a bad cable. I hope nvidia cuts the guy a break. If not 2k just literally went up in smoke.
  4. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Has Allegedly Been Liquid Cooled to 20°C Using a Household Air Conditioner, and a RTX 5090 Is Next

    This aint new. There are guys in Australia that have run their loops into underground vaults because the ambient is 50F. Using an AC unit is certainly unique though.
  5. AMD Radeon RX 9070 Series Will Go on Sale in Early March, Bringing “Significantly” Better Ray Tracing Performance and 4K Gaming to Mainstream P...

    I would suspect AMD will try every smoke and mirrors trick they have to show some improvement. Nvidia has pushed out, so far, disappointing improvements vs RTX 4000s (excepting maybe the 5090, but who knows since you cant buy one) and they are the leader by far. Nvidia has quoted their...

  7. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Founders Edition Video Card Review

    Looks like 5080 is a dud. I hope people read reviews before buying them on ebay for hundreds more. Maybe holding on to the 4090 is a good idea. But, the 4090 just increased in resale value!
  8. Take-Two Should Price GTA VI at “$80, or Even $100” to Help the Game Industry Rebound in 2025, Analyst Says

    I wonder how many copies of this game you would sell at $40??? Mr Analyst man??? Charging more money doesnt make a game better, Id say in fact the opposite effect. That and Im sure a boat load of GTA V was sold when the game was in the "on-sale" slot for 9.99 or less. So yeah, raise the price...

  11. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Launches on January 21 for $1,370, It’s Claimed as GeForce RTX 5090 Rumors Suggest $2,600 Pricing

    That 5090 price is stupid high. But they will sell out in 5 minutes. This hobby is getting punch drunk expensive.

  15. DLSS 3 Accelerates Performance In S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl by 2.4X on GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs at 4K with All Settings Maxed

    You are correct. But if all I have to eat is Spam, then it will be delicious. This game runs poorly natively, even with a 4090. You need help. Even if it isnt "true" 4K you can play it well and get the highest visual allowed in that circumstance. Outside areas at night, I got 80 to 90 FPS on...
  16. NVIDIA Warns of A Gaming GPU Shortage as It Prepares to Launch Its GeForce RTX 50 Series

    Ha....you know how it will go....every piece will be sold out in 10 minutes at launch. I got my 4000 series card about 6 months in....and it was a forum deal, not through any retail. The MSRPs this time around may be shocking though.....scalping a 5090 for over 3000 dollars may be the...
  17. DLSS 3 Accelerates Performance In S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl by 2.4X on GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs at 4K with All Settings Maxed

    If you enable Frame Generation, yes you would get some well frames generated. Not the case with plain DLSS. But you will notice that nvidia ran their 4K in DLSS performance mode, which is geared to generate the most FPS at some degradation of quality. It would be nice to know the FPS running...
