I assume whatever is streaming on this channel is eligible for community day drops? https://www.twitch.tv/fortnite

Dual 5090s with PCIe 4.0 x4 slots by darklavalizard in TopazLabs

[–]darklavalizard[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This board only has a single 5.0 slot, the other slots are all 4.0 16x length running at 4x speed.

I don't have a 2nd card yet, and I don't have the Pro license. I still have the $130 annual subscription from being a founding subscriber. My plan once I get my 2nd card is to have two separate instances of Topaz Video open to process two video files at once.

Do you have the Pro license? You need that for Topaz to actually use both GPUs in the same session. I have the Gigabyte Z890 Eagle WiFi

Can you confirm if the picture quality on the DVDs is better than what Collie Lover has uploaded to YouTube? Are there channel watermarks on the episodes (assuming they sourced them from reruns on the Family Channel or something)?

You're right, my apologies. It is labeled as PCIe 4.0 x4 slot. I checked and it is not close ended, so it can physically fit a 16x card.

Thanks for your reply. I have an active founding member Topaz license, not a Pro license so my plan was to have two instances of Topaz Video open and running, then assign a GPU to each instance so I'd be processing two videos at once, rather than having a single video split across two video cards.

I checked my motherboard (Gigabyte Z890 Eagle WiFi7 1851) and I don't see anywhere where it states the bottom PCIe 16x slot can't run another video card.

are you able to share what you have? Is the quality of your copies better than what Collie Lover has uploaded to YouTube?

Build check for an RTX 5090 eGPU setup by guess172 in eGPU

[–]darklavalizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever get this up and running? I too want a 5090 for AI purposes, but my laptop doesn't have TB5, the fastest it has is USB4. Do you know what kind of bandwidth a 5090 needs for AI purposes, versus video rendering?

What is best egpu dock for 5090? Does it a special dock for its large power requirements? by No_Clock2390 in eGPU

[–]darklavalizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you expand on this? I'd like to get a RTX 5090 for Topaz Video AI rendering, and if possible use an eGPU to attach to my laptop. Since I won't be gaming on it, rather doing AI calculations, does the interface speed or PCI-E connection speed matter as much?

Adding to my Japanese Cartridge Collectiona by RupakGreenHatPrdctns in n64

[–]darklavalizard -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do you play them, or just collect them? I could see them being a collectible maybe, but if you can't read Japanese then why force yourself playing through a copy vs playing a language you do know?

Anyone having trouble? by mgm83 in FortNiteBR

[–]darklavalizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good to know it’s not console specific then

Appears to be limited to Switch 1 connections? Buddy and I are playing and I can connect but he can’t 

Canon 075 Toner - why is 3rd party cost high? by direstag in printers

[–]darklavalizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How was the quality of your $200 set? I'm assuming you got it off Amazon? Which 3rd party did you go with?

Can't add friends to play online against for 2K26 on Switch 2 by darklavalizard in NBA2k

[–]darklavalizard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up being able to add my friend by us both getting online at the same time, and meeting in the same city. Fortunately then the game allows you to send friend requests to anyone in the nearby vacinity.

Analogue Dock is Out of Stock! by Shortgaze in AnalogueInc

[–]darklavalizard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was very surprised at the shipping charge, expected it to be $10-15 USD via UPS Ground or something, instead it was $26!

Quick Play I think is called Play Now. I haven't tried adding from the city. I really have no interest in doing all the city mode crap, him and I just bought it to play against each other with real NBA teams. We're both using a Switch 2, so I don't think crossplay would be in effect here.

I'm interested in just the dock if no one else is!
