My Nvidia cards anytime anyone suggests I should "upgrade".

I have a non ti 1080 and every subsequent generation seems to have been worse with everything from firmware issues to actual fires.

I already have a 4090 and I'm going to buy a 5090 and there's nothing any of you can do to stop me.

Random Tangent: I rather buy a nicer HDR monitor with that money. HDR Gaming is where it's at. SDR looks like washed out, dim dogshit to me now.

I offer an alternative to people who want nicer graphics: consider an OLED HDR monitor. HDR has like no performance impact but looks 10,000x better.

I'm using a 55 inch LG C4 as a monitor

Anyone who has a 4090 more than likely already has an HDR monitor.

Otherwise, what are they doing?

I have a 4090 and my display supports HDR and its disabled because fuck HDR. Do people actually like getting blasted with a floodlight because HDR automatically maxes your screen brightness? Like fuck I think my screen with HDR enabled is brighter than my lamp.

You don't have it configured correctly. That's not what HDR is supposed to do. Or you have a fake HDR monitor.

This is extremely based

Jensen can keep his GPUs, the way AAA gaming is going I'll be playing indies for the foreseeable future or playing on console. I have evolved into a patient gamer. It also has the advantage that if I want to see some theorycrafting I won't be swamped with youtube suggestions about pronouns or diversity. I'm not starting to use an account, I'm not American nor am I a conservative google, stop trying. I'm fine with different looking people in my games telling different stories. Also, TLOUII was one the greatest games of all time.

5060 will be $1999

That headline sounds expensive for us gamers.

this is the new normal... only way to fight is to squeeze the most of what you got, don't feed the troll

Not just an AI company, then.

It is, don’t use Nvidia cards for gaming the p2p isn’t worth it
