The Mandalorian - Star Wars webseries from Jon Favreau
azrael replied to SMS007's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Our spoiler policy for TV shows is 48 hours after original air date. One could consider this show a TV show, but obviously it’s not. The problem with streaming shows is the release schedule (Netflix-all-at-once vs weekly release) and the “watch-when-you-want” viewing habits of streaming. 48-hours after release date is fine for weekly shows, but for binge shows, I’d probably say 1-2 weeks after release. But that’s under ideal conditions.- 1438 replies

It was a OK season premiere. It felt like we're moving a B-storyline then the main storyline.- 1438 replies

RTX 3070 reviews are showing up and Founder's Ed cards are now on sale. Yeah, it holds up to Nvidia's claims, for the most part. Now for the other question...can anyone get a card. Given the 3rd party card fiasco, I'll wait till things are settled before grabbing one. -

In my travels with a laptop, lightweight is definitely preferable. I don't normally game while traveling so a dedicated GPU is not on my radar. I use a 13" Macbook Pro for home and as backup to my desktop (It's basically a desktop lite). For my work laptop, I use a Macbook Air. That being said, get a Ryzen laptop, if you can find a good one. Performance-wise, it's a better value right now. -

Not sure about the older generations. Haswell-4th gen (4000-series) was probably the pinnacle back in 2013. My ITX box still uses a Haswell chip. 6th-gen Skylake chips was likely the next jump, but that's also where Intel goofed and started trending down. 2018 was where people were saying about Intel, "WTF". Intel, traditionally, overclocks well but that's all they had going for them after Skylake. When I last upgraded, I had the option to do 8th or 9th gen Coffee Lake. At the time, the difference between the 2 generations was negligible so I opted for 8th-generation. -

So...3080 launch was a launch-crash-then-burn. Nvidia is using higher-end capacitors while some board-partners are using cheaper ones that are causing crash-to-desktop when the GPU reaches >2.0Ghz speeds. And the 3090...falling into the "not-really-worth-the-price-tag-unless-you-really-need-it"-category. I'm moving to "cautiously-optimistic" on that 3070 release in a couple of weeks. -

They're better...if you compared it to the 1st generation RTX, not the gen 1.5 cards. I haven't seen all the big reviews yet but they seem to point to "card to woo all the non-1st adopters finally". -

Yeah, if you updated to Windows 10 May update (ver 2004), expect a bunch of issues. There was a big patch released in July and another big one released in August which resolved a nasty SSD constant defrag issue. -

The 3090 looks to be a replacement for the Titan-line of GPUs. Considering a Titan RTX will set you back $2000+, $1500 seems reasonable. -
At this point, we have a transaction dispute between 2 parties that does not need to be aired on this forum. Please take it to PM or email to resolve. Thank you. Back to a normal thread about toys.

Glad I didn’t upgrade on the RTX 20-series. ‘Definitely want to see the reviews on the 3070 and I definitely want the thermals and power usage on the 3080 & 3090. -

Team Red probably won't have an answer except a price drop. Considering the new power plug and the massive cooling on the 3080 & 3090 (not to mention the extra slot the 3090 takes up), I too would like to see AMD answer back with a better performance/watt and better efficiency to Nvidia. Yes, Nvidia is going to make a beast of a GPU, but if these things belch heat and consume power, how will that be better if the GPU is turning your system into a convection oven. -
