BG3, Harry Potter, Spiderman Games, The Horizon series (until they kill it with the trash they are making now) and so on.

That's a fair statement I don't think the first blush should be for the masses. If they are smart they will get with someone that can make a board for the soc solution then sell it to their laptop owners to swap out. Fractal or something I think is the maker name... here I come google...

Seems to me single player rpg games are still doing well.

For my next personal laptop I will want something portable, light, performant and with a long battery life. Doesn't need to be a gamer but being able to game on it would be nice. So far signs are pointing to a MBP of the 16 inch variety.

**** that's a nice build. Very Steam Punk as well.

Interesting read. I wonder why they cut down on the number of USB 4 ports... Seems an odd choice...

But to be fair with all expansions and such. As long as the translation is good.... for a game I WANT to play... then I don't mind. But just to add to a ever growing library and maybe play it later? naaa...

It's amazing how much Steam's work has done to potentially open up the market to a wider breadth of devices if not cost tiers.

I wish Forknite was done... but it keeps coming up trying to grab the **** fork!

Right if gaming is your measuring stick a single.ccd 12 core x3d will be tje winner of course.

That problem is largely sorted at the professional level and has been for some time. Amd has 96 core single socket solutions and has for a while.

I still need to dive into this game. I kept waiting until I got a new higher end RT card to play it...

That is interesting. I've been looking at the MacBook pro's more and more. But my current laptop probably has at least another two years in it. If you consider I can get a pretty top of the line current gen macbook pro... OR a 5090... yeesh.

LOL, yea.... at least then I might have a reason for my 1300 watt power supply. It was SUPPOSED to be to drive a 5090.... but yea...

If I can go from 16 cores to 24 as a drop in... and maintain or increase per core max speeds.. I could be interested.

You know I never really got into this seeries. Could be worth checking out.

Oh sorry I didn't mean a problem for us the DIY folks. I meant a problem for the AI industry.

Seems to me that Nvidia is tightening it's purse stings to forestall losses in market with AI hitting the down slope of the peak.

I want you to be right. The issue is if Nvidia bails on the OpenAi investment we will see a LOT of in progress AI datacenters just come to a screeching halt as seed money disappears. Because lets be real, if Nvidia a 5 trillion dollar company BUILT on the success of AI can't see the value in...

While I agree a big part of this is the AI farms buying up everything. Don't even try to think for one minute that this isn't also a plan by the corporations. They want to restrict freedom of compute and ability to be a threat by removing high end compute from end user control or ability. I...
