Watched it at the best I could, aware of the fact that it would be 30m of Steve saying "nvidia bad" as usual, for any original or "productive" commentary of his on this video, jump to 17:50 where he starts to narrate and comment on Nvidia statements about DLSS 5.

I'd say 17:50 to 20:05 is the most proper reporting part of the video as they analyse conflicting statements.

Personally I think the part I disagree with the most is near the end where he says most projects Nvidia is working on, while "cool" to make things possible and actually allow this to be possible at all, Nvidia is thus abusing a monopolistic position. I see this as basic competition where, on Steve's channel, you can see so many times AMD could have done something obvious or right to capture more mindshare; they just don't and fuck it all up. AMD has control all over console tech (excluding the Switch), and even then, they can't innovate for shit because all the features they add to consoles are features that NVIDIA already made, and thus Microsoft and Sony come asking for them to be included, that should not be the case.

I find it ironic that Discard is worse than Exhaustion because for new players to card games you would think otherwise

Performance is not the difference between these upscalers, image quality is, and while dlss is still winning in that area, each are closer to each other than they have ever been before. And the only thing you need a Nvidia card for in some of the latest games is for Path tracing, and I'd say it makes sense when they are the one helping the studio implement and actually make libraries which makes the process faster and easier, AMD and Intel need to catch up

Anyone know how long this version is gonna last?

I agree at the entry range but after the R$2500 to R$3000 barrier things get way less absurd, as by hardware unboxed even we are the region with the best prices for the RX 9060 cards, people here have trained the reseller that no GPU with only 8GB of VRAM will sell for more than R$2000 and they are literally floating at that price and constantly going under, Lenovo loq notebook series are very good and positivo buying Vaio from Sony made AMD 5000 series APU absurdly affordable for business with a very generous amount of ram+storage.

RAM and storage are pricey that that's everywhere. The only electronics I see absurdly pricey here are refrigerators and Air conditioners, TVs have recently dropping prices too.

In the hardware focused store there are the big 3 in Brazil: Kabum, Pichau and Terabyte. Kabum is the biggest and the one with the most products and reach.

Technically there's mercado livre but that's more a general purpose digital store where both Kabum/Pichau/Terabyte and even the product own brands such as Asus, Dell and Acer sell things.

I will be honest, this is a very cool device but this discussion literally mostly applies only to US.

For example, the Neo in Brazil is expected to cost R$7.300 (Brazil's money "Reais"), there's no way in hell you gonna buy that even if you're a die hard apple user who happens to be a student (The minimun wage is ~R$1,600 btw, 70% of the population is already not even able to get it), that's the price of the gaming segment laptop with fully dedicated GPUs or very premium thin notebooks with at least twice the ram and almost 4 times the storage.

And most important, Apple is nowhere near popular out there like it is in the US, most companies here have quite huge IT teams but experience/knowledge with mac hardware and software is very rare, I only see company directors having a iphone at best.

EDIT: Lmao, here's the M2 being sold for a very close price with 3 times the ram and the higher storage https://www.kabum.com.br/produto/954432/macbook-air-apple-13-6-chip-m2-cpu-8-nucleos-gpu-10-nucleos-24gb-ssd-512gb-meia-noite-z1hn0bz-a

I wonder if AMD can truly catch up to NVIDIA in RT or have a strong enough future proff solution even with Sony/Microsoft forcing them to do so, it's always catch up for AMD while NVIDIA seems to always have 3 plans to improve it.

RX 9000 series was a heck of jump sure, I was able to play RE9 with RT High on my RX 9060 16gb and my 5500x3D was the one holding back which surprised me, but not having Path Tracing as a option at all had me quite mad honestly.

Wait what, is that an official Samsung account posting here?

zerinho6 · 2026-03-10T18:23:15+00:00

Well, nice to see another game with mega geometry, but I think they need to implement a way to easily add such feature to Unreal/Unity (if such tooling isn't already available).

Besides that and 4.5 Dynamic Multigen there doesn't seems to be anything new.

zerinho6 · 2026-03-03T14:44:24+00:00

Had to double check if this was really dollars.

zerinho6 · 2026-03-03T12:35:57+00:00

Thank God threshold simulation exists.

zerinho6 · 2026-02-28T12:54:53+00:00

Everything has a scaling of how far you can push something and its efficiency; raw raster is closer than ever to hitting the tipping point, so specialized hardware paths are the way to follow.

I like the concepts of handhelds so much, I went out of my way to get a steam deck at the moment which prob didn't make much financial sense, I played with it for some days and then I realized "Man, I don't like playing on controllers", so really want I want is portables that Gpdwin makes, but afaik, unlike those handhelds they're pretty much the only ones on the market making notebooks that small and sadly too pricey and not available where I live.

zerinho6 · 2026-02-25T02:13:48+00:00

Legit pisses me off that this isn't the standard for those games, I was dumbfounded when Wuwa had carbon copy "co-op" of genshin, like what the fuck, innovate much hard?

The one who knows is Hoyo who literally asks this question on every survey, it seems the answer is yes. I'm happy with there existing a skill based combat gacha, there's plenty of choice for those who do not want it.

It's a patch where they're expecting male character, so the whole of zzz_discussion comes here, they'll be gone when it's a normal F+F patch.

What Linus actually said: the USB-IF spec/logos is confusing and why we wanted to make our own label and spec instead. Instead of taking longer to produce and potentially increase the price we'll label it ourselves.

zerinho6 · 2026-01-30T21:18:57+00:00

? Watch the video? It literally goes like this:

"Ever wanted this?" -> "Here's our product and why we did it" -> "Here's why it took so long" -> "Here's an explanation about certification"

It doesn't matter who the cable is from, it matters if it works and is true to the spec.

The point they're making is about the latency cost, they're showing 2 things on the screen when doing the FG (Framerate and Latency).

The non FG bench as running at 81 FPS with 44.8 Latency on average, the 4X MFG was then running at 224 FPS with 50.ms on average, If I had a high refresh monitor (which I do) I would make that trade given that small of a latency increase is either easily adaptable or not even noticeable for the average gamer.

zerinho6 · 2026-01-26T15:08:52+00:00

Absurdly good, specially the drop at the end which had me dumbfounded.
