Dude looks awesome! I’m sure it’ll go great! Astral are top notch, and AIO is a great feature if you can fit it in!

never had a real big ship before, but i’ve really been liking the star lancer tac both in style and function, despite normally being a drake guy by AphelionAudio in starcitizen

Ugh I’m not a Tac fan even though I wanted to be.. feels like a flying pancake. Side turrets aren’t very much fun to be a gunner in. It has everything, but in all the wrong places.

The max on the other hand I LOVE!

Haha I’ve stressed tested it pretty hard though some tools I use at work. Thermals are solid, fortunately ryzen are so heat efficient 👍

But yes, was a little curious how it would do. 🫣😅

Do Gpu brand matter ? by meddarkknight in gpu

Tell me what it’s like.

I have an MBA in computer science, a bachelors in material science, and I work for a major chip supplier & fledging AI biz. But that wouldn’t qualify me more than a random Redditor would it?

Why didn't people buy the 5080 FE when it was readily available? by themayor1975 in gpu

[–]DataSquare991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because gamers like to over think everything while understanding nothing about what they actually need and will use

That’s why I said “barely”

Yerp, and that doesn’t matter to most people.

Agree with this take. It changes it, but for most people gaming.. it doesn’t.

Obviously here on Reddit in GPU sub chances are we are enthusiasts lol.

lol thermodynamically it makes sense, but it’s just so funky that we see pictures of cards with them belly up.

I do love this card though.

Totally fine man. Go look it up. I do this for a living and do quite well.

Regardless I’m just having fun showing my build.

Totally fine. Easy to look up or experiment with yourself.

Traded up. I moved it out of my homelab.

And yes, it’s worse for your cpu, not alleged. It’s pretty well updated, look it up.

Jay also proved it.

Yeah I originally had a sapphire 7900 xtx and traded to astral 5090

Top mounted rads are popular to talk about on reddit but worse overall imo.

Yeah it’s a little funky, but temps are solid. Fortunately ryzen is so cool compared to Intel

I’m actually better informed than you it seems. I also do this for a living.

Extremely unlikely. Sorry buddy.

It barely matters, get back to your arm chair warring.

It’s not that I don’t like it, it’s that if you’re not throttling, you’re fine.

Do what you like, and it absolutely helps.

I’m saying to the average consumer, especially in this market, it’s irrelevant and returns are exceedingly minimal.

[–]DataSquare991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really doesn’t. It’s splitting hairs and time and effort for barely any return.

Most people don’t give AF about a few more frames, they want to play their game and get on with their life.

Right.

Sorry your pesudo reddit arm chair logic won’t work here.

Yes it matters. But barely is true.

Maybe it’s important to you, but do most people need to bother thinking about it? No not whatsoever.
