See, that's absolutely not the same as only allowing a simple link in your sig, which is how it was enforced on me back then. If that's how it works now then we need that clarified. E.g. linking to your website/youtube/blog/etc is allowed any time in forum posts, as long as it's on-topic...

I mean, this thing is literally broken. https://www.techspot.com/news/102653-meta-llama-2-llm-prone-hallucinations-other-severe.html AI is colossal fraud perpetuated on humanity, plain and simple, propped up by indentured slave labor in third world countries. These tech corporations get away...

Thanks, so now the mods need to follow up with psolord because he still constantly links to his youtube channel (toutagamon) after I reported it. http://www.portvapes.co.uk/?id=Latest-exam-1Z0-876-Dumps&exid=threads/8gb-vram-not-enough-and-10-12.2595331/post-41191983 That's the most recent one but there are many others all...

Everyone needs to stay out of Nigeria. Especially emails.

The thread's premise has never altered, with the exception of adding 10/12GB examples later. The thread didn't invent VRAM problems. The effects of not enough VRAM are known as far back as the late 1990s and are well-established. I just list examples where it applies to 8GB. There was no...

Brand new numbers, 3060 12GB has higher 1% low than 4060 8GB in: Dying Light 2, Battlefield 2042, Avatar Frontiers of Pandora, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3, Starfield, Forza Horizon 5, Horizon Forbidden West, Alan Wake 2, The Last of Us, Tekken 8, FC 24, Detroit Become Human, Death Stranding...

A few weeks ago I reported an individual that rampantly links to their own Youtube content, because my understanding was this violates forum self-promotion rules. But to date nothing has been done, and he continues to do it. Indeed, I used to write for a tech website back in the day which I...

You...you...mean I have to take photos overseas to find Elephants? Are you crazy??? I'd rather just photograph my backyard 37 times and then ejaculate the photos as "evidence" that Elephants don't exist. Please explain to me how a competent investigation is more important than just checking my...

Oh look at that, Amazon's "aye eye" uses 1000 outsourced Indian workers.

You know exactly why, because nobody wants the garbage they're peddling. That's why they force it into the OS. Start Screen, Widgets, Metro, UWP, WinRT, app store, Bing, Cortana, XBox integration...all complete failures. AI will also be a complete failure. It's as stupid as when NV and Intel...

Seriously, how many $billions do these Microsoft monkeys spend on aye eye, but they can't even check disk space before rolling out an update? If your recovery partition is too small it'll constantly fail to install and gum up the Windows Update screen. I installed Windows 10 a long time ago...

If Windows 12 does arrive, I expect it'll be close to when 11 is EOL. If they shipped it now they'd have another fragmented disaster with having to support 10, 11, and 12 all at once. Just look at how much trouble they had getting rid of 7 and XP. Depending on which stats you check, 7 is still...

These are good people, yo. Good people! https://www.cnbc.com/2024/04/04/google-sues-crypto-scammers-allegedly-uploading-fake-apps-android-app-store.html

Class action lawsuit against HP. Consumers need to burn these donkeys. https://www.techspot.com/news/102612-class-action-lawsuit-accuses-hp-monopolizing-aftermarket-ink.html Ubisoft removes access to The Crew from paying customers. Another example of "games as a service"...

A bra also makes them look bigger. Not sure we want that in a 4090...

Well this is interesting, Quadro uses the EPS connector, not the 12V firestarter plug. Hmmm, I wonder what possible reason NV had to do this on their professional cards? o_O

HWUB weighing in on the matter.

It's like The Three Stooges juggling chainsaws. You know exactly what'll happen but you keep watching anyway. We've had some absolute comedy gold in this thread: Minimum framerate doesn't matter, only averages do. Texture quality doesn't matter because it's just "the game's LOD system". 8GB is...

Guys, guys, version 2.0 of the Correct Settings Utility(tm) is working. Here's a sneak peak, lemme know what you think!

Video here: 200 melts / month = 6.6 / day which is higher than 25 / week = 3.5 / day we had before. Yet some people in this thread were trying to tell us "the amount has reduced to almost nothing because it was all Cablemod's fault", LMAO. When he goes through the box of connectors you can...

This pretty much agrees with what I put in the OP. Both Intel and mobo vendors know exactly what the cause is but they're hoping the issue issue blows over rather than confronting it. They won't dare do anything that risks lowering benchmarks or a class action lawsuit. Nothing new here, Intel...

Why should he check any of those things? If a product is unstable @ factory settings then it's faulty and not fit for purpose. Intel / mobo vendor could force the right thing at any time, but they both choose not to. It's not the customer's problem to solve or debug that decision.

Also if you look closer, you'll notice the game's capped @ 60 FPS. So it falsely looks like ray tracing is "only a 10FPS hit" when in reality the game would be running hundreds FPS @ uncapped rasterizer. The fact that a $1200 4080 can't even reach 60 FPS in this ancient 2003 game shows the...

Yep, exactly right. Art style, visual design and aesthetic direction are far more important than technical rendering prowess. I play a lot of old games regularly and it's amazing how well the quality of their art holds up visually. I'm replaying Dishonored 1 right now, a 2012 game that still...

So the answer is "Intel specs are meaningless". See, that wasn't so hard to admit now, was it. That's right folks, it's "the user's fault" the motherboard defaults to uncapped power out of the box and demonstrably pulls 508W, while Intel does nothing to stop it. Poor poor lil' Intel, the $161...

Guys, guys, I'm back again! This time demonstrating my superior math skills and ability to comprehend elementary benchmarking results that a child could understand. See that 13GB? It clearly shows VRAM "just a little above 8GB". That's right folks, 63% more is "just a little above". Also 1%...

Please show where Intel enforces this across reviews and motherboard vendors. Without enforcement, "TDP", "base power", and "turbo power" are nothing more than marketing masturbation. 508W in practice, gg. Enforcing 125W doesn't cause this.

Perfect for increasing the size of your...VRAM.

Yep, history has shown repeatedly high VRAM cards age far better than low ones, e.g. 960 2/4, 1060 3/6, 580 4/8, etc. Yet despite this, we've had a constant stream of certain individuals on the internet arguing otherwise. Heck, go back far enough in this very forum and you'll see people...

OMG guys, check out how awesome I am. 1080p is clearly "incorrect settings" for a 4060TI, everyone knows it's a 720p card, yo. Also guys, check it out, 87FPS is the same as 18FPS. And minimums don't matter, so 65FPS 1% low is the same as 10FPS 1% low and proves 16GB is "wasted" on the...

Politicians made a good decision for a change: https://www.techspot.com/news/102464-house-representatives-bans-use-copilot-over-security-concerns.html Translation: we need to increase the bribes in the form of lobbying and campaign contributions so we can get our spying telemetry approved...

4090 burnt pin + snapped connector from the other channel. The connector has no support but requires a lot of force to insert, so it snaps.

Blade Runner enhanced on GOG includes the original which runs fine on ScummVM. Enhanced is also cheaper than original right now. Since you get both games for the price, it's a no-brainer.

Bulldozer/Piledriver was a bad product and so are these K(S) SKUs from Intel. Some people have an emotional attachment to products they purchase and the corporations that make them. Problem is, defending bad products doesn't help them or other customers. The Intel monopoly sat on their...

Yep, exact same settings with only textures dropped from high (1 notch below max) to medium (2 notches below). Textures alone change the game from an unplayable stutter-slideshow to ~60 FPS, the textbook definition of running out of VRAM. Yet another example where the 3070's performance...

Found another round of numbers, games in red are new examples we haven't seen before. Skip to 4K + DLSS for each game. Cyberpunk 2077, Diablo 4, Hogwarts Legacy, Horizon Zero Dawn, Microsoft Flight Sim 2020, Witcher 3, Watch Dogs Legion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPiaWWd0xGc Diablo4...

He didn't knock the card as much I expected:
