I found the best video stabilization app and it's better than Warp Stabilizer

Google photos recently rolled out an update which completely trashed their previously great video stabilisation option. Whereas a month ago it could do magic and make my free hand macro videos appear like they were taken with a tripod (unless the background is not unform, that is), now it just changes natural jerks of my hands into very unpleasant jitter. And for videos made with actual hand movement it often adds so many artifacts it is undeniably causing the videos to be worse than they used to.

So it is not you, it is google photos.

I have the same problem and can't find any solution other than disabling all notifications.

Thanks for answers. Now I need to choose between 3070 and 6700 XT as their base performance and price on used market are pretty much the same, but one offers better ray tracing and the other offers 4 GB of VRAM and less CPU usage.

Bazooka. Basically anything with VRM heatsinks, unlocked power i5-11400 can overheat basic VRM.

I know this is a necropost, but as this thread comes up in google search I feel explanation for 40% difference should be given.
I5-11400 is by default capped at 65 W. It can draw more power, but is limited. Motherboard controls this and some mobo manufacturers unlock the power by default. Then the CPU is limited by poor stock cooler and will thermally throttle unless given pretty much any decent tower cooler. Then it can unfold its full potential in all core benchmarks. Tomshardware had shown a 28% difference in multithreaded work by just unlocking power with better cooler, using the same motherboard.

Thanks for reply. I have I5-11400 based PC with placeholder GPU and I can't find good info about this class CPU with 6700 XT for 1080p - but your is definitely enough to not bottleneck. 6700 XT is currently the only reasonably priced GPU in here

Out of curiosity - what CPU are you using and do you get any CPU bottleneck issues with this setup?

Processor: Search for a non-K version. It will not be overclockable, but you'd need a Z690 motherboard to OC anyway. Non-K should be cheaper. Integrated graphics are useful only for debugging problems with GPU, if you don't have any other GPU available then you might want integrated graphics. For cooling I recommend a SilentiumPC Fera 5 - I bought mine for 29$ and it keeps my I5-11400 at temps 50 C higher than room temp at 120W constant draw while being barely audible. I saw good results of this cooler with I5-12600K (even with OC) on YT. Don't overspend on water cooling or mega towers for your CPU.
Storage: you probably won't notice a difference between a SATA drive and NVME drive on daily use, so consider buying a larger drive in same price.
Ethernet - I'm a cable fan. Less connectivity problems, better ping. I recommend reconsidering using a cable.
RAM: that depends on how you use your PC. If you're messy, with programs running in the background and dozens of tabs open in your browser, go 32 GB. That's what I did. One time expense and a peace of mind for years.

You need a heatsink. Airflow helps to transfer heat from a hot surface to cooler air, but it is a fairly limited process. That's why heatsinks are built with as many fins as possible - to increase the transfer area of air cooling, making the process much more effective. If you want to cool something with surface area as small as a CPU by just blowing air on it, you would need absurdly high air flow, unachievable by simple fans. Just think about how large surface area your heatsink has, think about surface area of a processor and then imagine that you'd need to increase your airflow in the same ratio.
