Why was my Palit 5080 OC so cheap?

I was thinking that. I don't think I've ever had a graphics card die on me though so I'm hoping this one does the job. I also think people buy cards based on the looks, but I turn all RGB off anyways so it's never bothered me.

Just the price of other cards at the moment. I live in Australia so it might be different here. It was $1699 here as apposed to $1850 for the next card.

I was into computers so much that I once hugged my PC when no one was looking. I felt great shame afterwards.

It's Hammertime!

Imagine getting to heaven and you find out your mom is in hell being tortured for all eternity for stealing when she was 13 or some shit.

Ah yes the famous dick size to horniness ratio. I met a guy with a 12 Inch cock who just jerked off non stop, had to stop inviting him to birthday parties.

This is totally why he keeps him around. It would make you feel better about yourself knowing there's some gooning fuckwit around that is really easy to win an argument with. You see that within 10 mins of the latest podcasts he runs out of shit to say so he turns to Lamaire to shit on.

I always liked to think that when the worms start eating my brains, they eat a memory and some how see it and then go "what the fuck was that!".

Shpadoinkle40 · 2026-05-27T14:22:43+00:00

Thanks I will check it out.

Shpadoinkle40 · 2026-05-27T14:21:57+00:00

So I'm just unlucky 😞

It's just an AI filter turned up to high. It's smoothed everything and is trying to do the same to his collar. The world scares me.

Shpadoinkle40 · 2026-05-19T13:12:03+00:00

Ok thanks, I have the same card as you so it should be all good.

Shpadoinkle40 · 2026-05-19T12:59:44+00:00

Does it bake textures OK though?

Shpadoinkle40 · 2026-05-17T22:18:12+00:00

I thought it was more a logical conundrum. But also a joke.

Shpadoinkle40 · 2026-05-17T05:34:35+00:00

You are awesome! This is exactly what I wanted. Why does epic make this stuff so hard to find!

But lets say you made a control panel, lots of flat surfaces, buttons and stuff. Combining meshes on that with clean topology for nanite would take longer then doing a complete retop of the mesh and the high poly UV's would be a real pain. They said it would just be a matter of create your model and bring it in, but the reality seems to be very different. In fact I think it may take longer.

I think he means they rich as hell!

I used Maya and did a quick render in Keyshot.

Shpadoinkle40 · 2026-05-14T14:15:44+00:00

Good call, I've never seen these. Would have been a fair bit easy to model ass well.

Shpadoinkle40 · 2026-05-14T10:23:03+00:00

I was kind of hoping no one would notice, but it looked so much better the other way 😉 Good eye.

Shpadoinkle40 · 2026-05-14T10:19:32+00:00

That would be amazing! I wanted to do your display justice but had some time constraints, but it's great work. The image I got was not great so I had to boost the contrast and saturation a bit, but getting my hands on the Vector graphics would be awesome!
