    OK, and that lets you cut all the way through the tubing, or do you have to go around? The problem I had with this saw was that it didn't cut the 14mm all the way through, and was hard to flip tube and line it back up to get a clean cut.

    Nope, happy to skip Fermi 3.0 if the power rumors are true.
  4. Sir Beregond
    I share that same question. I also heard that 40-series likely getting an MSRP price hike seeing what people were willing to pay during the 30-series run. There's a reason they effectively phased out the $700 10GB 3080 lol. Combine that with a mass selloff of 30-series mining cards, people might not go for 40-series if they can get cheap 3080's, 3080 Ties, and 3090's.

    Next thread after people get this: "The top of my EK block is swelling and warped!"

    No idea really, so I am just as interested to see where it goes. I got out of crypto last year, had bought in early 2017 before it had that bull rush to 20k. I think it was still $3.5k when I bought. I should have just bought a whole Bitcoin lol.

    What size Dremel wheel do you get for doing the cuts on a 14mm tube all the way through? Just trying to see if this kit I found has what I need. Thinking of picking one of these up.
  8. Sir Beregond
    Eh we'll see. Just saying this has been the cycle ever since Bitcoin was a thing. So I'd expect the same thing, until it does something different, predicting when that will be seems hard to do.
  9. Sir Beregond
    Eh...its been mainstream since its last bear market in 2018 - early-mid 2020.
  10. Sir Beregond
    Repeated cycle again and again with Crypto, agreed. This year was fun, had to do my capital gains on my taxes for the crypto I sold last year. Luckily had held it since early 2017 (before it went up), so wasn't too bad.
  11. Sir Beregond
    Sounds like a Dell move. Shocking to be using such a card in 2012 in new machines.
  12. Sir Beregond
    Guess that's true.
  13. Sir Beregond
    Wonder why 16nm.

    5770's were fine as a $150 card in 2009....They were better than the more expensive GTX 260 (the original 192 core one) and performance roughly matched up to the 4870 of the previous gen. This was years before a GT 730 and GTX 970 existed...Weird comparison. I had mine in 2009 and it was a great $150 card at that time.
  15. Sir Beregond
    Very nice. May not be a flagship, but I have an EVGA GTX 570 HD if you want it.
  16. Sir Beregond
    Love it. Wish I still had my old ATi cards. 7500, 9700 Pro, x1650 Pro. Still have my 5770's.
  17. Sir Beregond
    100% agree. Nvidia's track record makes me think they'll fight that though. Guess we'll see. AMD is already competitive in the rasterization performance, now functionally on par with DLSS from a feature standpoint, really if they get the ray tracing performance up with RDNA3, I think AMD is shaking up the market like we haven't seen since the 4870. Edit: Really what will remain to be seen at that point is how MSRP and pricing works in the future. RDNA2 and Ampere never really competed on that front realistically.
  18. Sir Beregond
    Yeah the fact its hardware agnostic and open source is a huge deal. I think its really going to depend on if Nvidia somehow strangleholds devs on what they implement in their games - DLSS exclusivity deals, etc.
  19. Sir Beregond
    Kinda puts Nvidia on notice. Do you really need the AI/Tensor to do this? Apparently not. Will be very interested to see how this gets adopted going forward.
  20. Sir Beregond
    FSR 2.0 looking great from what I've seen of the reviews so far. Temporal like DLSS, vs just straight image upscaling/sharpening of FSR 1.0. Also like that it is open source.
  21. Sir Beregond
    I remember those drivers back then, killed a lot of cards.

    Twitter just seems like the place people have diarrhea of the mouth thoughts that used to just be kept to one's self. Not saying that's right or wrong, just saying I don't see that changing at all.
  24. Sir Beregond
    Through Twitter? I don't use Twitter and have never used Twitter.
  25. Sir Beregond
    I don't care. Twitter has always been a cesspool and will continue to be. What really changes here?
