MeruFM posted:did you notice screen tearing with vsync off in the past? Yes I noticed it sometimes. I was told in this thread that g-sync is like 'night and day' though, and I'm just saying that it definitely isn't, in case anyone was wondering. edit: apologies to anyone who still wants a card but is unclear as to whether or not they whined too much ITT. edit 2: there was another criteria mentioned earlier, you can only get a card scalped to you if 'you're a cool guy' I think it was. redreader fucked around with this message at 20:58 on Nov 11, 2020 |

As refresh rates go higher and higher gsync becomes less noticeable. It was much more important when we were forever capped at 60.

Combat Pretzel posted:Says who? If there's any info, it's that it still trickles in just like before. At least if you want 3080/3090 cards. BestBuy had a considerable drop this week--obviously no real way to tell direct numbers, but cards were in stock for minutes instead of microseconds. So either they got a big shipment or demand is waning. Either way works for me--I still want that sweet sweet 3080 FE so I can spend silly money on the EK waterblock. Sphyre posted:NOVEMBER FLOOD!

Apple is shipping dedicated on-die neural network acceleration even on their base model laptops now, re: our previous discussion about where models like DLSS can run. It would be amusing if Apple came up with a better neural network upscaler than NVIDIA.

Pivo posted:It would be amusing if Apple came up with a better neural network upscaler than NVIDIA. Have they given any indication they give even the slightest of fucks about game resolution upscaling, though? Gaming on Apple has always been comparatively laffo, and most of their AI work so far seems to have gone into photo processing and voice recognition / processing. That said, Apple does have a ton of real smart engineers and a poo poo ton of money they could throw at it.

I dunno if fancy temporal upscalers even make sense on bandwidth starved mobile hardware, AFAIK everyone in that space still uses MSAA (or no AA) because post-processing of any sort is too bandwidth hungry

I wish MSAA was mainstream again  I've been playing a lot of WoW lately and seeing it run with 8xMSAA is so niceI get that forward renderers/deferred shaders basically make it impossible nowadays, but it's nice to dream

Or wait for the 3060Ti, which is supposedly due next month. There won't be a huge performance difference - the 2060S is effectively a 2070, and the 3060Ti is rumored to be comparable to the 1080Ti/2080 performance-wise.

I'm not really familiar with AMD's GPUs since they've been inferior for some time. Is it a bad choice for 1080p/144hz or is it the lack of ray tracing that you would lean that way for?

As long as the monitor can handle G-sync compatible mode, that is. I guess that would be the biggest caveat - if the freesync didn't work on Nvidia then the AMD card would be more tempting.

There won't be a huge performance difference - the 2060S is effectively a 2070, and the 3060Ti is rumored to be comparable to the 1080Ti/2080 performance-wise. I'm aiming for a 3070, but I'm extremely tempted by the 3060 Ti for 1440p/60fps for singleplayer, 120 fps for multiplayer. Assuming its performance matches a 2080 for less power. If it's a December launch though, I really don't know how I get one before Brexit. From the Stockdrops discord it seems only France and Germany are getting any decent stock. French retailers just scalp to hell, and German sites only deliver to DE, or get cleaned out by bots within a minute (asus.de lol).

for the big rear end 3080s with 3 8-pins do you need to run a separate 8 pin from the PSU for all 3 or will 3 connecters from 2 cables be enough? Thats a lot of cable clutter

Thats a lot of cable clutter If you're trying to do something silly like use EVGA's 450W BIOS, yes. Otherwise, for normal operation and mild overclocks, no--two cables to the three ports will be fine.

Thank you, EVGA, for putting a triple-8-pin setup and ridiculous TDP (even at stock) on the FTW3, and thus pushing me toward the 'reasonable' option of holding out for a cheaper XC3.

necrobobsledder posted:There's probably going to be a Rosetta 2 integration with those two ecosystems. Apple isn't stupid and knows developers need their tools working for them to migrate. Amazon has gotten ahead of the train with the ARM EC2 instances for all the cool kids to compile against. I won't get the new Macbooks for my primary laptop but I may get it for myself and start working on ARM cross compiling for my projects for kicks hoping work reimburses me for it. It should be a justifiable expense I figure and I'll get a nice toy out of it if I'm lucky. I dunno, I see the news about the ARM-based Macs and I see them looking more and more like Chromebooks. Since Apple has been pushing to have Mac OS be able to run iOS apps, why bother developing a Mac OS version at all?

Do you have adaptive sync enabled on your monitor? Do you have gsync enabled in the control panel? Is your fps capped/running at less than the max refresh rate? Does the "gsync on" watermark show ingame once you enable it? The user experience in getting the drat thing working certainly leaves a lot to be desired, but the effect is very much noticable even at 140fps.
