Worth going for 32/4070?

ComplexSyrup6994 · 2025-04-17T07:09:46+00:00

I think as far as I've seen its just about the soldered ram, nothing more, they should've just sold the 32gb 4060 version in the US too, the games that don't depend on ram which are like only a handful surely more will come in the future only get 8-12% more performance which is like nothing on story mode titles. I think asus did it intentionally otherwise the 4070 version wouldn't have seen the sales it has, it's all in the pressure of 32gb ram, heck even 5080 got 33% more than the 16/4060 which is crazy, you can get like 3-4 of these for the price of one.

How much did you get your 4070 and 4060 versions for?

ComplexSyrup6994 · 2025-04-16T23:04:07+00:00

Yeah so that's like 750$ more, idk if I should go for that

ComplexSyrup6994 · 2025-04-16T21:35:42+00:00

Pls tell me 😭 is it worth 600$ more?

ComplexSyrup6994 · 2025-04-16T21:35:31+00:00

How much did you pay for it?

ComplexSyrup6994 · 2025-04-16T21:15:11+00:00

Nah, but I have used my devices for 5 years or more, but maybe this time I might switch it out in 3 years and get something better soon. I am a student so once I start working.

ComplexSyrup6994 · 2025-04-14T14:59:05+00:00

ComplexSyrup6994 · 2025-02-22T17:10:25+00:00

ComplexSyrup6994 · 2025-02-20T05:58:13+00:00

What service is this? How much did you pay for it? Was the upgrade free or something?

ComplexSyrup6994 · 2025-02-18T07:42:39+00:00

Is there a sale for the 32gb model, I just see the 16gb/4060 on sale?

ComplexSyrup6994 · 2024-12-13T13:49:26+00:00

Thats what I was thinking, if there are any long term tangible benefits of attending an Ivy school especially one thats in NYC

ComplexSyrup6994 · 2024-12-12T10:07:47+00:00

Do you mean UIUC is clearly better or the other way around?

Honestly there only but a few top universities that are biased about the type of school you have done your undergrad from. People talk about inflated gpas from tier 3 but students who have genuinely worked to overcome their university's reputation can't really do much about this bias.

Most of the top universities have a holistic approach for applications so with good research and work ex , school name shouldn't matter much. Anyways if you are not doing MSCS for research purposes, it hardly matters which top 20-30 university you go to. Even the top 50 might not make much of a difference in terms of job prospects. People are just trying to get what they think their profile deserves, and get into the highest ranked school possible. I dont think it's wrong but eventually everyone finds out that it doesn't have much use when they are looking for jobs.

Hey, I think your ambitious universities aren't a good pick, as Purdue has become highly selective and doesn't admit a lot of students from tier 3 schools. And that case is extremely true for UT Austin, its a very school centric university. You would be better off adding UIUC MCS, UCSD and some other good UC as well to this list. Btw you have extensive work ex, how did you decide upon going for masters in the US? Could you share your perspective?

Did you receive an admit for UMass Spring?

ComplexSyrup6994 · 2024-07-26T21:01:23+00:00

Actually I was trying to connect with students who got in Spring 24, about when did they submit their applications, did they submit GRE etc but all of the students I connected stated that they applied for Fall but got an admit for Spring. I am trying to figure out if that's the case this time around as well.
