My understanding is its a bitter deeper than this. I read an article that alleges that they were using developer openai accounts to link their models and just leech off and learn from the ai models. So they didn't have to train their models.

I wonder what kind of difference this chip would make for me without a GPU upgrade. I am also on 4k. I'm assuming a GPU upgrade with this chip is going to be in my future.

I'm intrigued for sure. I'm definitely going ryzen for my next build, don't think I have used AMD since before q6600 GO stepping was the thing lol. I think there is a perception thing that is clouding this. When ryzen came out AMD was not competitive at all so them releasing ryzen was amazing but if I remember correctly it was quite a bit behind the current Intel chips. Also had all the memory issues. The fact that intel is, well intel, I think there is some bias that they should release their first chiplet design with a new arch that also blows everything out of the water. Maybe I'm overstating the impact of their shift from monolithic cores but I feel like this should make us all happy as they dial this new plan in.

E, the fact that you got us here is something to be very proud of. I don't post as much as I did on our previous home when I was not a father, employee, or frankly and adult. But you have always fostered a great community focused on the right things. Sad news for sure but I wish you the best in everything and totally understand where your coming from, I couldn't do this. So thanks for everything friend, keep on trucking.

Can't help you but curious, I plan to do the same thing after the holidays. I was looking at the tachi's as well hah.

So perusing the article, this is Intel's version of a chiplet design right? Basically their Ryzen? I browsed the techspot article, I know understand that it doesn't redefine the world, but seems like a solid product considering the power reduction. Interested to see what intel squeezes out of this over time. I'm probably going ryzen for my new years build but who knows, maybe they do something by then.

So my plan is to build out a new computer sometime after the launch of the 5 series cards. My leaning right now is I will go for a 5090 and just be done for a few years for my needs. With that in mind, I'm looking for a new case for this build and I'm thinking I may want to go full tower instead of mid tower. My current Meshify 2 doesn't feel like it would have much room if any for any kind of add on card with a 5090 shoved into it haha. I don't necessarily need a full tower but here are my needs in priority order: Fit a 5090 (Understand we can't guarantee until we know its size) Quality (I know this is subjective, but I have not followed the case game in a long time) Primarily Air Cooled, Will most likely reuse my Arctic Frozer 360 but will definitely have an AIO for the CPU. Fit at least a sound card (this might be more Mobo driven, but my current board would struggle to fita sound card even with a 3080. I know the modern motherboards sound is okay, I just find how they handle switching between headphones and speakers to be annoying. Or I'm doing something wrong but my sound cards usually let me really have separate settings. Possibility of Watercooling one day. I'm not super worried about price but I'm not an extreme overclocker heck I barely overclock anymore. So while I appreciate quality, I probably also don't need anything special like a case labs. Edit: Hmm Fractal makes a XL version of the meshify..... The pop air xl looks pretty nice too.

Drop + RedSuns GMK Blue Samurai Custom Keycap Set DROP.COM Introducing the Drop + RedSuns GMK Blue Samurai keycap set: the much-anticipated counterpart to RedSuns GMK Red Samurai. Its these

I have had mechanical keyboards for years but they have always been your generic razer, das......whatever. Finally just finished up my first custom build a few weeks ago. QwertyKeys neo80 I thought they were Gateron Switches but I'm not sure now: Roller Linear Switches KBDFANS.COM ROLLER LINEAR SWITCHES The inspiration of the design is to capture a brand-new level of smoothness and minimize the stem wobble. It... GGMK Keycaps

Appreciate the responses. Its like it magically disappeared now hah. My goal is to forget I ever noticed anything. I think I'm going to downsize in the near future and go to the 42 assuming its not a worse TV and put this one somewhere else. I feel its a little too big.

I was wondering that as I did more reading. Well I can't take a picture now cuase its not doing it. But it seems like the pixel shift. There is like a very thin line where the screen just looks off. I'm not missing anything on the screen that I can tell. I notice the shift when it happens so I'll just keep on eye on it. I think its the first time I noticed and it was just jarring to me hah.

So I love this thing, but today I noticed that there is about a quarter inch on both sides that isn't utilized with my PC. I only noticed becuase a UI element of the tv was showing where I thought the screen ended haha. Is this normal due to aspect ratio or something? I tried googling but I failed to find anything. It only seems to be on the left side of the screen. Additionally I use two monitors with the secondary monitor being on the left of the LG. Edit 2: Its probably only an 1/8th of an inch and definitely only on the left side.

the one time a year I need to recall something important is not worth to me them taking screenshots of everything. I can see some dude sitting at a desk thinking this is great and will help people though, sucks to be those guys.

21 for handguns is federal law, as is 18 for long guns. Some states I believe have upped even long guns to 21. I don't think the age is the problem, there always seems to be someone who knew the person bought a gun, knew they were not right, might have said something might not, and no one properly investigated. Now I'm not a fan of red flag laws as most are currently implemented as they remove due process completely a lot. I think the US needs to enforce the rules they have better and be very consistent. Our gun laws haven't changed much (they became a bit more restrictive) but guns have always been a part of the US. IMO other factors are driving gun violence and the vast majority (aside from suicide which is like half of gun deaths in the US) is a result of another already illegal activity. I don't think violent games drive people to do violent things either. I'm clearly not a psychiatrist with no background in it but I just don't buy that a perfectly normal kid turns into a murderer by playing GTA or COD. If anything COD would make you want to join Special Operations military groups I would think. I forgot who said it earlier but I agree that there is something else there going on. Its possible they play those games to get their fix to whatever is really wrong and at some point it doesn't do enough anymore. Just my thoughts.....But if they win these law suits things are going to change. Daniel Defense has never once marketed their firearms for killing innocent civilians. In fact I have never seen marketing where killing has ever been the focus. Its usually defense or be like the SEALs (which are good guys).

Yeah I always bought razers extended warranties to make life easier. I don't really bring them on work travel anymore and don't travel enough to warrant super slim like the razer so I was thinking about branching out to save a bit.

Those look really good. I need to play this again

@ENTERPRISE What did you end up picking up if anything? I'm looking at a similar choice right now, with my kids still being younger I'm a few years from really desktop gaming again. I'm usually downstairs on the couch or table hanging out. I was looking at the new version of the asus rog scar with mini led. I'll probaby try and hold off for newer gen gpus as I feel buying a 4 series right now isn't the smartest choice. I have been looking at the legion, scar, and blade. All 16".

I have never used an ultrawide, but I did buy a 48" lg oled and love it. I went that route becuase I knew it would beused for my ps5 and regular tv as well. It was also on sale and a complete impulse purchase lol

You would think it would make them cheaper lol, but not when Nvidia is in charge.

I would be tempted to try android again except everyone I talk to has apple and I don't want green bubbles lol. To me its really a habbit thing, it works, I don't really do anyting but text and browse the web. Its also why I stopped getting phones every upgrade. I want until I pay it off and then get a new one.

I'm at that point where my windows drive has way too much stuff in it. Tons of empty folders or files that were just left over from an uninstall. How do you guys generally clean up aside from just nuking the install and starting fresh.

Well Gran Turismo was always PlayStation only wasn't it? While I think they should let this go through, I think this is the first time a hardware company has bought a publisher with this much clout and IP. As long as Microsoft continues all their releases on PC I'm good hah.

What is out there that would be awesome to side load? Only thing that comes to mind for me would be taking my personal vintage game collection on the road.

that malfunction clear was awesome.

What do you all recommend doing on these to work better as a monitor or protect from burn in. Only thing I really did so far was auto hide the task bar and actually remember to turn it off since it doesn't shut down like a normal monitor
