Sir Beregond

I was wondering what was going on with the [H] website. Thanks for posting here.

Ah probably bad work units then as the card is currently running stock and I was not home most of the day, so didn't cancel anything. I'll tick that setting, thanks.

Ah ok, cool. I've passed that then and confirmed getting bonus now with that link you provided. It mentioned 2 expired WU's. What makes a WU expire? I'm finishing up another WU now and then will have to shut it down for the night and will resume tomorrow. Gotta say, this is fun. Hope to get a place where I can eventually get a basement or something I can setup to just run all the time.

Har har Seriously though, I hope you do! Is that total, or each time you start up?

I will do when I can. Yeah I have door open and window popped open. Still hotboxes like crap. My condo isn't your house. I started up the 3080 Ti 2 hours ago since I left the house and won't be back in another 3-4 hours, so will see how that goes. This is also my daily use rig so won't be folding when I am using it in the evening before bed. I will do what I can though when I can. Better than nothing.

I see what you did there.

Well its basically a $999 4080. With 5% more cores, I wouldn't expect it to be much different.

Do I need to setup anything other than making sure I am representing Team 239902?

4070 Ti was the full AD104 die and was originally slated to be the "4080 12GB". 4070 Super was definitely a good uplift, but I still don't like the $600 price.

What a joke. Guess only thing going for it is 16GB and if you care about RT, that aspect will outperform a 7900 XT. Otherwise 7900 XT looks like the better card to get for raster and 20GB. Honestly would have expected it to close the gap on the 4080 better than it did, but guess not. So far the Super series refresh is wholly underwhelming. Hope sales continue to slump.

Still looks the other way to me. Could maybe be table width when viewing on my laptop?

Looks good. One thing I noticed is threads with "solved" icon look like this. Not sure if you wanted it above the thread title, or in-line?

I can try here and there, but I can't run all the time like you guys so don't expect much in the point department sadly. so.... in - SirB

Personally never even heard of that forum before.

Oh, more interforum competition, I like it!

The store has its own, yes, which are the ones you screenshot. Fluxmaven did his own run of stickers for one of the folding contests a while back before the merch store was a thing. Used them for prizes and such.

Yeah I am in this same boat after selling mine off. Crypto is too volatile and I don't really believe in it's premise anymore like I maybe once did a long time ago. Money is always centralized somewhere. Oh trust me, tech stocks are part of my investment portfolios. Things have been doing very well lately. My 401k is the same way. I choose all the funds that I want as part of its portfolio and on the stock side of things, I'm definitely in all those as well. If I were to just buy individual company stocks again, I definitely agree that Microsoft, AMD, and Nvidia make a ton of sense similar to how Amazon and Apple have been in the past. While there certainly can and probably will be a bubble of sort as eventually everyone and their mother getting into AI has to find a breaking point somewhere at which point the serious guys that can do anything with it, will continue to do so, meanwhile the rest will probably somewhat be like the dot com bubble and crypto/blockchain, but like those...hasn't gone away. Obviously we all still use the internet, and crypto hasn't gone anywhere. For better or worse, AI is here to stay.

Yeah I got into crypto in 2017 with about $1200 total and sold it off in 2021 for about $5500. But that was my only foray into it. Forgot what the taxes were on that, but wasn't bad. Stocks at this point I have a few but not much. Most of my investments are in other avenues as opposed to individual stocks.

Yeah I didn't really know how to buy or mine Bitcoin in 2009, 2010, and I didn't really know how to buy stocks in 2012. Things I regret to this day.

Makes sense. As far as raster goes, you basically on average have the 2nd fastest gaming card in the world. Its faster than the more expensive 4080 for raster.

Makes sense and telling they didn't drop to $699. It's telling on Nvidia's end that there probably won't be a lot of MSRP models 4070 Supers so that $599 will probably be more like $650, and same for the 4070 Ti Super at $799, bet it will be more like $849. So AMD clearly thinks $749 is sufficient and all the naysayers online in places like Reddit saying they needed deep cuts, probably not true. AMD doesn't seem overly worried and this is just more or less confirming street pricing of the 7900 XT as the new MSRP.

Soon...

That's interesting, but it brings up another thought I had. Maybe we should just be moving away from ATX standard. Take a look at how a regular ATX orients DIMMS against natural airflow where some one off motherboards like EVGA Dark and Classified series rotated the socket and DIMMS to a better orientation for airflow. And of course you have other standards like BTX that just never took off. I think it would be interesting to see ATX evolve finally as we have moved towards things like m.2 drives, single GPUs, and now looking at how memory can evolve on desktop. Maybe there's a better way to do things than ATX form factor and motherboard layout.

I'm a big fan of mint tea. How is that one?

God, no wonder Voyager comes back as V'Ger in the 23rd century.
