And even if you only cycle lead batteries above 50% SOC, they will still last a significantly shorter amount of time, especially compared to LiFePo4 batteries.

The APC has serious drawbacks besides the costs when used as a daily driver. I haven’t noticed any drawbacks with my GPU, and if I had the money I would have bought a faster one.

I do wish however that AMD and Intel would compete in the high end, because I am not an Nvidia fanboy. Real competition would result in lower prices and maybe also better products.

We are in a similar situation with GPUs now compared to where we were with CPUs before Ryzen came out. Everything above a quad core on Intels side was so expensive back then and real progress was not happening.

The problem is, it’s not just an assosiation. NVIDIA cards are the fastest cards hands down. I wish Intel and AMD would provide competition on the high end, but they just don’t do it.

Even worse, the best next gen AMD GPU won’t even beat AMDs best last gen GPU, they even say this themselves.
