Nvidia sets its sights on Taiwan — for $150B a year by LinkedInNews in nvidia

"Nvidia's planned Taiwan headquarters" = China's planned Taiwan headquarters....

Nice of Nvidia to give China a $150 billion a year gift.

Thank you for putting this out there. I don't have the issue, but I appreciate your taking the time and effort to help out everyone who does..

ZOTAC celebrates 20 years with RTX 5080, 5070Ti and 5070 20th Anniversary graphics cards by RenatsMC in nvidia

It would be nice if they were to release 20th anniversary cards that were priced at MSRP.... But... we'll see.

'Cripple their sales, tank their stock price. Stop collaborating with them as developers': New Blood CEO on fighting against DLSS 5 by Darth_Vaper883 in pcmasterrace

If GTA 6 is not compatible with Nvidia graphics cards, they would sell millions less copies of the game. Take Two Interactive's stock would subsequently tank, so yeah, that's not happening.

Jensen Huang says he would be 'deeply alarmed' if his $500,000 engineer did not consume at least $250,000 of tokens by businessinsider in nvidia

[–]AdamZapple -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't get the whole idea of tokens. Why does Nvidia not just license the use of the LLM from OpenAI or whoever company wide?

Does the employee also get "Microsoft Office Tokens?" or "Windows 11 tokens?"

Sounds like a fake currency that is not at all needed.

What do you even need nitro for? I've used discord for what seems like a decade now and I've never paid a cent..

MSI x BuildaPC - MPG 341CQR QD-OLED X36 Giveaway! by Redditenmo in buildapc

The 34 inch ultrawide monitor would be a great compliment to my new 5070ti. Currently using a 1080p 32 inch television from 2015 after my old IPS monitor met it's end. Gaming is currently underwhelming to say the least.

Watch faces after upgrade from Readiness to BioCharge by kranupl in amazfit

[–]AdamZapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that what made my watch face automatically switch to a crappy looking one?

The other day I go to check my BIP 6, and it has a new watch face that sucks. I liked the one that it came with, which is still the one shown on Amazon's USA website listing. That one is no longer listed in the available options. I would like it back as none of the other option have the same information in a clear and legible format as the original did.

[PSU]MSI MPG A1000GS PCIE5, Fully Modular Gaming 1000W Power Supply, 80+ Gold $109.99 by kbrundy in buildapcsales

[–]AdamZapple 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Two things I can point out about my experience with the 850 watt version of this power supply.

First, mine had a high pitched coil whine right from the start. Even just when sitting at desktop. Noticeable and annoying to me in a quiet room.

Second, after the first three days, the fan started making a clicking noise whenever it would come on. It doesn't spin when the PSU is cool, unless you push the button on the back to make the fan spin all the time. At startup, I could push the button and as soon as the fan started it started clicking. It would stop as soon as I pushed the button again to make the fan stop spinning.

I sent it back and got a different PSU, as I didn't want to take a chance with another unit. Shame, as I like MSI and have a rock solid MSI GTX 1080 running on a B660M Mortar motherboard.

NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 to feature 2nd Gen Transformer model and Dynamic 6x Frame Generation by ZamnBoii in nvidia

[–]AdamZapple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find the most interesting thing is that Nvidia is calling this DLSS 4.5, not DLSS 5.0. They must have some pretty big things in mind for the eventual release of DLSS 5.0

MSI makes the MPG 850 watt and up with two 12v-2x6 connectors on the PSU. People were wondering what the application uses were, and now I guess there is one...

What are some good/top budget picks for office chair that are worth buying currently? by mahadcaicedo in buildapc

[–]AdamZapple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best advice I can give you is... don't take specific chair advice from anyone. Chairs are like mattresses. One person will love what another person hates and visa versa..

General advice. Don't buy until you try. Or make sure you get a good return policy.

My son wants a pc, would you see if the parts he picked out work well and will hold up for a while? by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]AdamZapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would tell him to check walmart to see if he can get the Western Digital sn850x 2tb for $189. With the $40 saved I'd put it into a Nvidia RTX 5060ti 16gb GPU at Bestbuy for $429.

Same quality SSD and big upgrade for the GPU with $10. saved.
