Is there anything interested in this particular background?

Is it pot mixed with hash?

More like The Brain, no?

Posted a summary above.

The video “Top 5 Best GPUs 2024” by Hardware Unboxed provides an overview of the best GPUs at different price points as of late 2024, while also advising caution due to upcoming GPU launches early next year (CES 2025). Here’s a summary:

Key Points:

1. Entry-Level GPUs (Under $300):

   • Best Option: Intel Arc B580 ($250) – Excellent value, outperforming competitors like RTX 4060 and RX 7600, but currently unavailable due to high demand.
   • Alternatives:
     • Intel Arc A750 ($190) – Good performance for the price.
     • Radeon RX 7600 ($250) – Decent choice if the B580 is unavailable.

2. Mid-Range GPUs ($400–$500):

   • Best Value: Radeon RX 7700 XT ($400) – Superior cost-per-frame compared to RTX 4060 Ti.
   • Premium Option: Radeon RX 7800 XT ($470) – Offers 16 GB VRAM and better value than RTX 4070, unless ray tracing is a priority.

3. Upper Mid-Range GPUs ($500–$700):

   • Options: Radeon RX 7900 GRE ($570), Radeon RX 7900 XT ($680), and RTX 4070 Super ($620).
   • Recommendation: The choice depends on priorities:
     • For rasterization: Radeon GPUs (7900 XT or GRE).
     • For ray tracing: RTX 4070 Super.

4. High-End GPUs ($800+):

   • Options: RTX 4070 Ti Super ($800) and Radeon RX 7900 XTX ($870).
   • Recommendation: RTX 4070 Ti Super for ray tracing; RX 7900 XTX for rasterization and better value.

5. General Advice:

   • Avoid high-end GPUs like RTX 4080 and RTX 4090 due to inflated prices.
   • Consider waiting for next-generation GPUs from AMD and Nvidia, expected to launch in early 2025.

Final Thoughts:

The GPU market in 2024 ends on a lackluster note, with limited innovation and overpriced options. The video emphasizes waiting for CES 2025 announcements before making major purchases.

Let the enshittification begin!

Is this a joke comment? Your experience is playing on MS OS, a flight sim which, assuming it’s the Flight Simulator, periodically sends data back and forth? on top of using it at work.

Flush himself down.

I have the same expression as in the thumbnail.

Safe from unwanted tracking*

*doesn’t apply to us

…the second I get to work.

FTFY

I think we are a bit farther than “might”.

Not really as I

1. don’t have the space for a headset with stations
2. don’t want to sacrifice privacy for a bit of fun
3. would like to have a well supported headset not something that will be forgotten by the manufacturer in 2 years

I had Oculus Go years ago and, having known its limitations, wasn’t very impressed by it.

I guess it’s still a bit early for me to get into proper VR so I will give it a few more years to mature (in my eyes).

Thanks so much for your detailed thoughts! I really appreciate it, and it helped me confirm that the Index isn’t for me, and I’m not keen on the Quest 3 either. Your take on the setup complexities and privacy issues was super helpful. Thanks again!

Which headset, Index?

That’s not a country.

Can ANY country…?

Slightly misleading headline that is clarified in the first paragraph - “in all the countries that the Steam Deck currently ships in.”.

Removed by mod

I was surprised to see a new weather app on my phone. I installed a few when I tested which one to use and I thought this one was one of them and I thought I forgot to uninstall it. I don’t like these silent adjustments (whether an install, uninstall of an app, removal of a feature etc).
