Crazy isn't it. I hear it's for multiple reasons: Demand from AI centers, movement to HBM, which uses stacked chips that eat up production, companies stockpiling RAM in warehouses, a shortage of production, and tariffs taking effect; it all adds up to a perfect storm of pricing. I hear it is...

Scrap the connector, go back to the drawing board. This design should have never passed PCI SIG.

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...
