    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.

    Official 30-series (Kitchen) Launch presentation: Let's see how the 3070 stacks up in real-world. I notice the PCB on the 3080 is smaller and that 2nd front fan consumes the entire front.

    RTX 3070-3090 specs leak. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 and GeForce RTX 3080 specifications leaked

    Reading the synopsis on Wikipedia and rewatching the trailers does nothing. I'm still confused.

    The leak also shows the 3090 with a new 12-pin power connector. So yeah, for that person who’s wallet is burning a hole in their pocket, you better have the PSU to back up that purchase.

    Rumored Nvidia 3000-series prices:

    Reeves has stated that this Bruce Wayne/Batman duality takes inspiration from Darwyn Cooke's Batman: Ego, if you want to explore the Bruce/Bats relationship in this movie.

    Matt Reeves also confirming this is a "Year Two"-story while the HBO Gotham City PD series will take place during "Year One". Now if Robert Pattinson's Bat-voice strikes a different tone than his Bruce Wayne-voice, I'm sold.

    Gotham Knights gameplay footage. I wonder if it allows co-op play. That would actually be awesome. There a a bunch of Arkham Knight stealth takedown videos. Imagine 4 players stealth takedown montage of an entire map section.

    So has anyone tried MS Flight Simulator? Can anyone download (127 GB after the 532MB Steam client) or actually RUN MS Flight Simulator with all the bells and whistles (real-time air traffic, Bing maps data, etc)?

    Both rank fairly high for travelers in China. NordVPN appears to have more servers but ExpressVPN has speed. I don't use either but they're on my list when my current VPN subscription expires. If your ExpressVPN subscription is up, maybe it's worth a shot to try NordVPN.

    OK. We're done with this.

    Can't say this wasn't expected. Intel Reorganizes In Wake of 7nm Woes; Chief Engineering Officer Murthy Renduchintala To Depart (Anandtech.com) I really hope AMD hammers home Ryzen 4th gen desktop.

    Intel, lately (I mean the past 10 to 15 years) have been releasing their next gen CPUs to mobile (laptops) first, then desktops. Performance-wise, Ryzen mobile CPUs have been the better bang for the buck. Single core performance favors Intel. Multi-core favors AMD. As for performance of Intel's mobile 10nm CPUs...only mild improvements. Performance was evolutionary rather than revolutionary. It wasn't like Ryzen 4000-series of mobile CPUs. It was

    I only watched the Halo Infinite trailer. Meh. I’ll look at the rest of the presentation later.

    *facepalm* O Intel. "7nm CPU products push out ~6 months-...12 months delay of 7nm process yield"

    Officially announced today, new APU chips: https://www.amd.com/en/processors/ryzen-with-graphics And a "Pro"-lineup: https://www.amd.com/en/ryzen-pro I'll be waiting to see the benchmarks for these APUs (namely the non-"Pro" set). I need a new ITX build.

    So let me get this straight, bigger company reject's guy's offer to make a product so guy throws a hissy fit and makes said product anyways. M'kay. Grow-up. Move on.

    Redundant thread.
  22. azrael
    Yeah, I can’t say I’m interested. Maybe if they were introduced a season earlier, I might have more interest.

    I only know the magnification reading, i.e. 8x25 = 8x Zoom at 25mm objective view. 10x42 = 10x zoom at 42mm objective view.

    Many companies are having a rough year thanks to the pandemic. If they had profit last year but a loss this year, I wouldn't say "Oh noes! ". There has to be a defined trend. Have they been trending downward for a few years now? Yes? Then there's a problem. No? Then meh.

    I can use the MX Anywhere ( I have one for my laptop), but it's not a long-term mouse. If I need a mouse while mobile, my MX Anywhere will do. Just don't ask me to use it for 8-9 hours/day. Same. While disappointed, I feel and see Apple's growing frustration with Intel. I would have liked to see Apple go with AMD (they already use AMD graphics) but given the roller coaster AMD went on to get to Ryzen CPUs and the Zen architecture to where they are, I understand Apple's desire to go their own way seeing that an iPad CPU can match a mobile x86 CPU. Intel's minor gains year after year have not helped them maintain a dominant position. The continuous round of Skylake-refreshes did them no good. Intel makes good looking gaming (read single-threaded) CPUs but once you move to multi-threaded performance (where workstations live), AMD looks better. One other note from this weekend caught my eye was the leaked benchmarks of the Intel Core i7-1165G7 "Tiger Lake" mobile CPUs. On par or better than Ryzen 4700U. But the Ryzen 4700U has been out for a few months now and Tiger Lake is due out mid-2020. And AMD's CPUs will likely still be cheaper for the performance you get. I wish Apple stuck around on the x86 platform, but jeez Intel, if 4th gen desktop Ryzen looks good, even I'll leave you.
