I did the same when I rebuilt with a 9800x3d. It’s so nice not having to worry about the pump or aging parts that might leak. No gurgling sounds on startup.
I used the Thermalright Frost Spirit 140 as it was quite a bit cheaper than Noctua which used to be my go to.
New Zealand music month is great for getting out and seeing local bands play.
What all this does is accelerate the day when AI becomes worthless.
It was always worthless. Or, at least, it was always worthless thinking that LLMs were a substitute for reasoning AI, which is what it appears many people have been suckered into.
Just need to misidentify a suspected bomber and we’re on the home stretch to mainstream popularity.
Positive research papers on trickle down economics are always printed on yellow paper for this very reason.
Office Space on ketamine.
Seems like it would have been cheaper, easier, and better pr to just simplify settings or have them in more logical categories, but what would I know.
A different distro isn’t going to help. It’s an issue of game telemetry and hardware not being supported. Unfortunately Simracing really requires dual-booting windows.
This is a weird one, but read up on folder structures. If you’ve used MacOS at all then the logic is very similar. However if you’re coming from a pure windows background then it can get confusing figuring out where everything gets put when you install applications or need to make changes to config files.
The Pop desktop environment and search works well the vast majority of the time but it’s handy to know how to find you’re way around when you hit a roadblock.
I recommend an ex-lease HP Prodesk. You get an ok cpu, nvme slot, physical space for an ssd and hdd, plus a pcie slot depending on form factor. As they use mainstream components the hardware is well supported in Linux.
Nvidia is fine and I have a 3080. I have vrr on my 4k display working fine when run with 2 non vrr 1080p monitors, and full hdr support. That’s using the 570 driver in fedora.
I just don’t bookmark anything I don’t read straight away. If I want to read it that badly I’ll search for it again.
I will probably be buying a 9070 XT to replace my 3080. I don’t need to be sold on its capabilities.
It is categorically not beating a 5080. It does however go toe to toe with the 5070 ti.
I don’t think AMD has. My understanding was that the next gen UDNA architecture has the full range. It’s meant to launch next year.
The two RDNA 4 cards were just to have something out at the same time as the 5000 series.
Lol. System requirements are 30, 40 & 50 series cards with 12GB of VRAM. Most of the cards do not have this due to Nvidia’s stinginess.
The “Remote playback with a Remote Watch Pass subscription” just sounds like IPTV with extra steps. I’m kind of ok with them requiring Plex Pass for remote streaming for the server owner, but then I have lifetime so it doesn’t affect me. Might feel differently I was having to pay.
I have both the Steelseries Arctis 1 & 7 headsets. I’d happily recommend either of them, though 7 might be out of your budget.
The 1 is my office pair. It has long battery life, the wireless range is decent, and the usb c dongle means you can use them with a cell. The sound insulation is good considering it uses mesh pads and as a glasses wearer they’re pretty comfortable.
The audio quality isn’t amazing, it’s a bit boomy for my tastes. There is also a physical mute button on the back of the cup that sometimes gets knocked to mute when I put them down which is a bit embarrassing in calls. Otherwise I haven’t had any issues with them.
Weird for some reason I thought it released closer to xmas. That might have just been when it started selling in NZ.
Found my copy of Wipeout 2097 and 3 over the weekend so might be an excuse to grab it out for old times sake.
That second sentence is a bald faced lie. I lost grub thanks to a failed update and then 2 days of my life trying to repair it.
