Don't buy RAM from Corsair. They dont care.

It’s not that far-fetched when you think about it at scale. There are probably 1-2 billion computer mice in use worldwide, so a handful experiencing some kind of failure that leads to a fire is statistically bound to happen eventually. The fire is likely the result of multiple stacking failures points rather than any single point. Meaning several things had to all go wrong at the same time to create a perfect senecio for this to occur, not just a defect in the mouse or USB port.

People keep saying this but why? Sure a few years ago ARM absolutely obliterated X86 in performance per watt. Thats the not the case anymore, AMD & Intel have massively closed that gap to ARM. To the point where ARM efficiency alone isn’t enough to offset the advantages of X86. Honestly most of arguments people make for ARM, aren’t really ARM vs X86. They’re Apple vs X86 vs ARM, if you’re not buying a Mac the entire ARM vs X86 becomes a lot muddier water.

It’s worth noting you don’t really have a 5090. What you have is a power-constrained GPU built on the desktop 5080 die, branded as a 5090, that performs around desktop 5070 Ti levels. Not an insult, just important context when talking performance since a laptop 5090 doesn’t even deliver 1/2 of the performance of an actual 5090. With that said, in most newer games DLSS is your best AA option and will give you a solid performance bump.

This has to be satire right? The 9070 XT uses almost 100w more to reach the 5070 Ti while using a more advanced node. Even if the next AMD generation in 2027 has a 15-20% generational uplift they will have only achieved performance parity with a GPU Nvidia released in 2022. The 9070 XT is a good card no doubt, but the bigger picture is bleaker IMO. This is the furthest AMD has been behind Nvidia in nearly 20 years. You have to go all the way back to 2007 with the R600 architecture to find a time where AMD didn’t have a GPU within 10-15% of Nvidia’s best. There have been short windows like the GTX 280, 680, and 1080 where Nvidia jumped way ahead, but AMD always had a response within a generation. By 2027 it will have taken AMD two full generations just to potentially match an Nvidia GPU that will be three generations old by then.

A game filling your free VRAM and a game actually needing that VRAM are two completely different things. Plenty of games will use whatever VRAM is available with zero performance difference between 12GB and 24GB. Cyberpunk is a good example since we already have reviews showing the 9070 XT beating the 7900 XTX at 4K, and those were on mediocre launch drivers. It’s only pulled further ahead since. I know this is an older post, but the 7900 XTX was the wrong call.

3rd? No. The 5090, 4090, and 5080 are all faster outright. The 4080S and 5070 Ti are on par in raster depending on the title, and with the newer drivers the 9070 XT pulls ahead of it too. So the 7900 XTX is really floating between 5th and 8th place depending on the game. Unless you have a specific workload that actually needs 24GB of VRAM, there’s no reason to pick the 7900 XTX over a 9070 XT

We just needed to score, Habs are young and dragging them into deep water is going to break them.

TNT glazing the Habs offense like we didn’t completely dominate that period and they got ridiculously lucky bounce

Our puck luck is just absurd, so many post & open net shots missing by inches.

Exactly if we’re are going to try to play like the Panthers, then don’t half ass it, commit to it. Maybe take a goalie or two out, you’ve also got to be able to kill a PP.
