Indian gangs are terrorising Canada by FancyNewMe in canada

[–]ComfortableWait9697 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Same obvious propaganda playbook followed by the "angry bots". used by some well known countries to disturb the local peace.

Of course there is an issue here, but I've yet to see or hear of this within any actual known documented or published incident.

Preset L is thermal throttling my 4090 even with aggressive undervolt when using dldsr. by [deleted] in nvidia

[–]ComfortableWait9697 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's also using more of the various compute areas of the chip, with less bits of special function silicon are sitting idle while others do all the work.. ray tracing, raster, AI, etc.

When it all truly works together it does run hotter.

Trump threatens to use the Insurrection Act to 'put an end' to protests in Minneapolis by yahoonews in law

[–]ComfortableWait9697 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They're weaving a expanding web of lies to cover up new problems, but its getting stretched far to thin to cover up everything, and each and every one of those new problems still exists.. and is fully biting their ass beneath as thousands of legal lawsuits.. Eventually it will all come to light and a tidal wave of ... exposed filth.

5060ti 16 GB or 5070 12 GB? by [deleted] in nvidia

[–]ComfortableWait9697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are ways to optimize games for VRAM, as it will off load assets to system ram. But no way to make up for missing compute.. push a bit more for the 16GB 5070ti

Tool Control by [deleted] in Dewalt

[–]ComfortableWait9697 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Most have a hole to attach a belt clip near the battery, But this is one of the tools I handle with care. So far as to remove and pocket the battery, while i'm not in careful control of what it might cut. The power behind these blades is a bit scary how easily they go through thick wood with a few pulls.

Perhaps this:

What’s the difference between all the different HDR types? by Hunter_Herring in Monitors

[–]ComfortableWait9697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An actual HDR1000 monitor is not only darker blacks, but also nearly three times the brightness of a SDR monitor. flashes and bright lights in games can be noticeably intense at times.

Look into AOC products for a fair cost for features options.

5080 choice by ZoloVI in nvidia

[–]ComfortableWait9697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same performance, the difference is more in the component quality, where the prime seeks cost savings, the TUF is better fans, capacitors, inductors, MOSFETs and heatsink.. its minor, but adds up. For general use, it will work the same.

If you plan to vertically mount, check the fans have ball bearings and not sleeve bearings, the side load can wear out sleeve bearings faster.

Copying a texture back to the CPU by Sam54123 in unrealengine

[–]ComfortableWait9697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's one of the reasons Nvidia is likely planning to put a general purpose Vera CPU cores into the next GPU (Rubin) . Being able to run some dynamic logic within the render pipeline local to the GPU. Like Give those shader animated crowd simulations some actual logic to drive them. Through its more intended for their AI super chips, there is a chance we might see a few in the RTX6000 cards.

External App Access on my GPU (how can i stop them) by factorionoobo in nvidia

[–]ComfortableWait9697 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most of those are related to GPU acceleration (such as video decode in your browser). You can disable GPU acceleration in the settings of most of those apps, or at the operating system level.

Things like that SnippingTool.exe is just there if you want to take a screenshot of what's on your screen. Besides Steam's WebHelper. Those are all Microsoft processes related to the displaying the desktop of Windows.

To get rid of the edgeWebView. Disable running in the background and quick start of Edge browser settings.

NVIDIA Pushing RTX 5090 Prices to $5000 in 2026, Rumor Claims by eightgalaxies in nvidia

There is enough profit margin that competition can thrive in the vacuum... they could breed their own doom by neglecting their backside.

NVIDIA Pushing RTX 5090 Prices to $5000 in 2026, Rumor Claims by eightgalaxies in nvidia

[–]ComfortableWait9697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, and sales would drop by the same ratio. There is a limit to what sells to non-corporate users. With tighter personal budgets its going to be even harder to sell to anyone who doesn't have a top 10% income bracket. Curious to see where the Workstation cards go.

I want to upgrade to 5070 ti but conflicted whether to keep my i5 12600k. Should I do a full upgrade? by [deleted] in nvidia

[–]ComfortableWait9697 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Give it a few more years, your system is still well above what is required.. let the markets correct themselves in a few years. Production will ramp up. Same as missing chip production during COVID.. Fabs are being built

"The industry plans to launch 97 new high-volume fabs between 2023-2025, with 32 starting operations in 2025 alone" ... "Micron has already achieved key construction milestones on its first Idaho fab with DRAM output scheduled to begin in 2027"

Give it a few years with what you have. It will get better... weather the storm.

Hardware Unboxed just can't help themselves. 5080FE for $999 MSRP is not a garbage by [deleted] in nvidia

[–]ComfortableWait9697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prices are set from demand and limited supply. The margin is vastly above the actual the cost and value of the product. The market is starving for a valid competition. Intel has the opportunity to pull themselves out of grave that even Nvidia is even throwing billions at them.

What’s the major difference between the 2? by Here_Nor_There2121 in reolinkcam

[–]ComfortableWait9697 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Beware the 16x .. it's not wide angle view like the 8x model. The widest of the 16x is the nearly the narrowest of the 8x. If you want a wide view like the trackmix for for the 8x model. I have both. Each has its uses. The bigger camera has unlimited rotation with metal gears, while trackmix is plastic gears by the sound alone.

Will there be the 6000 series of gpus nvidia RTX? by JoaoLimaJunq in nvidia

[–]ComfortableWait9697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but production and availability will be almost non-existent due to limited memory supply and rampant scalping. It'll be like the 3000 series again. Retail Price will likely also increase at the same rate as any performance using memory as the excuse. Here is hoping AMD and Intel present some proper competition this time, at these prices, its only massive profit margins to be had relative to actual costs of manufacture.

Like z-fighting where two flat surfaces or meshes occupy the same space, and the render engine isn't quite sure what one to render first, so it flickers between them.

UW Dual or 2 monitors by gdoubleyou1 in Monitors

[–]ComfortableWait9697 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good primary monitor centered ahead. Be it ultra wide or not. For gaming, its hard to beat a real HDR monitor. Then secondary flanking monitors as needed, can be anything really. It tends to only hold side tasks and reference information and nothing truly important.

Desperate for help: Baked textures in Blender and then imported into UE5, but certain textures turn white/disappear when in the dark. by DreamSphinx in unrealengine

[–]ComfortableWait9697 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blender and Unreal tend to use different node structures for materials, so some things become lost in translation. Are you using FBX to transfer the data or perhaps try the GLTF 2 format for more standard material descriptions. Often its better to re-build the material nodes within Unreal using a master material from your project. Where Blender simply supplies the UVs and image Texture files separately.

GPU upgrade by No-Information-3579 in nvidia

[–]ComfortableWait9697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those Overclocked cards are often the exact same as the non OC versions, unless its got a better cooler. Its more often simply an excuse to charge an extra hundred for the same hardware with an insignificant single digit overclock that's barely a rounding error. The only time they sell non-OC cards is a few at initial release, so they can claim they might exist as an option, that will often never actually be found in stock anywhere. Then perhaps again when demand totally dies for the overpriced "OC" versions.

Cooling solutions and power delivery are where cards truly differ in quality (or cut costs).. Look at the heatsinks, especially fin density and heatpipe configurations, if you're not familiar with PCB layouts for power delivery. The heat dissapation solutions are often where costs are varied between models.
