I'm ok with it as long as there's a way to disable cross platform play. Let me play against PC only players if I so choose.

What really chaps my arse is when these AIB's sell a card with a waterblock on it and charge an extra $600-800 for it. When I can buy the same card air cooled and a separate block for another $300 and save $300-500. Gigabyte and Asrock, specifically, did this with the 7900XTX and 4090. I...

This is what it looks like. You can slide it around and see what and how it's changing. It's quite nice. It does leave all those garbage options on, like motion blur and depth of field. I turn those off, which is why it shows it isn't optimized.

It's actually sad that we have to say such things.

come with a 5lb lead weight to keep it from lifting off as the cooling fans spin up

You decide. There is a slider you can move from performance to quality. And it's not perfect, but it does get you 90% there. I don't like spending an hour fine tuning a game. I let the app make the initial settings, then I generally turn off motion blur, film grain/cinematic nonsense and a few...

I'm guessing they prototype tested it, and it didn't provide enough uplift to justify the cost. I'd imagine the latency between CCD's and how the Windows scheduler works just didn't work out.

4070 Ti Super was/is the sweet spot for price/performance. Nearly 4080 performance, 16GB VRAM, dual encoders, for hundreds less than the 4080. Two weeks ago MC had them on sale for $720.

Sure, if you don't use DLSS. From what I've seen/read the new DLSS is really good.

AIB's: hold my beer

I'm not talking about sleep. You can edit your power plan to turn off your displays after a set number of minutes of inactivity.

Sooooo, $1300-1400 for the 5080 after AIB markup, $2300-2400 for the 5090, so on and so forth.

are windows power settings foreign to you?

2020 v2.0 :ROFLMAO:

Highly doubt they'll give away the game for free considering they've never done so with GTAV in almost 10 years. It's still $15 on Steam, and was $60 until 2022. Unless it's a complete turd and bombs in sales. And they somehow remove FiveM support that's been keeping GTAV alive all these years.

Guess I'll wait for 2030 when the PC version comes out

I wouldn't expect either card to release in any kind of high volume at first. They'll be hens teeth for at least 3-4 months and scalped for stupid money. I won't be a buyer immediately anyways as I'll need a waterblock, which typically don't show up for a few months after release. I'm sure...

I'd be interested to see memory usage testing at 1440P, which is what this card is aimed at. Will the 5070 even be able to push 1440P at max settings to saturate 12 GB of VRAM? I'd think the 5070 Ti would be the card to push limits, and that comes with 16 GB.

Been some pricing leaks on the 5080 and it's coming in at just under $1600. That's a hard NO from me considering I'll also need a water block that'll probably be around $300.

Considering they are only making a limited number of them they'll be collectors items in a number of years. You'd be surprised at what some of the original G-Shock's sell for.
