It's going to be a lot slower on RDNA 2/3 because they lack FP8.

I'm so tired of constantly hearing that Intel Arc is dead. At some point, you just have to admit it isn't, yet. I don't know the future for them, but I do want them to succeed, and I'm going to stay positive on the matter. I look forward to any new releases.

Deus Ex games are one of my favorite franchises; I adore Human Revolution and Mankind Divided. However, I have never played the original Deus Ex. This might be an opportunity to give it a whirl.

I'm focused on gaming, and I really don't see 16GB being a problem for at least the next couple of years, i.e., I don't think there is any advantage between a 16GB, 18GB, or 24GB GPU for gaming. As long as it's 16GB, I think it's fine for a couple of years. Now, once games that are designed...

My worry is OS scheduling problems; history has proven that desktop Windows is terrible at it and it takes MS forever to catch up with support, and then it's still not perfect.

I guess we hear about all kinds of new RAM types that never really took off, innovation doesn't always mean it will catch on. Fill me in though, what is the intended use of this, replace flash? replace DRAM? or sit in-between?
