Dunzaus got a reaction from smith315pm in Dead insects behind display of monitor - Acer Predator xb252q *SOLVED*
Just called them and they will take it in and ''repair'' it. So thanks for your help, I wouldn't have thought that my warranty covered this, but it did!
True, once you see something you can't stop noticing it. Like going back to 60hz from 144/240hz.
Have a good weekend!

Hmm, I'll try and contact them. Thanks for your suggestion

Of course they would charge such money for nearly no performance upgrade. Why?.
First of all AMD have nothing at the moment and Nvidia have monopoly, they can literally put any price on rtx cards. Second of all you paying extra for fancy RTX and that's all. I don't believe ceo who couldn't shut up about ray tracing wouldn't show us normal benchmark comparing rtx to gtx10xx. If the performance was lot better he would shove it in your face, but instead he only talked about ray tracing and how it's 6x faster from previous gen. Not suspicious at all. Pre order is a big risk here if you want serious performance gains. I'm not a hater, I'm all Nvidia since riva tnt and never had and card, but it's just too little information for me to justify spending £750 on rtx 2080 and shoving away my 1080

It depends on what is being rendered. Vulkan excels in situations where you have amadyl’s law style slowdowns by reducing the time spend per draw call. It is not always going to make a difference.
By the way, I am not a graphics developer (I do storage), but assuming that there is no serialization mechanism like a mutex in place, it is possible to (ab)use threading to emulate asynchronous operations. QEMU does it when it is not using AIO for example. Having an asynchronous interface to use is definitely nicer though because it reduces boilerplate.

Are you saying that a 2070 should be as powerful as a 1080? Because it should be Way more powerful.

Well when was the last time you saw such a leap in fps or performance when a GPU or CPU, because they went down in die size? It's not just all about the die size, that alone won't necessarily make performance better, by the amount you are referring to. Just take AMD and Intel CPU's at the moment. AMD either got 14 or 12 nm and they are still not as fast as Intel. AMD is only beating Intel with more cores and lower prices.

Back when the Gtx 600 series where the newest thing, the top tier card was the 680.
Then the 700 series came and we all thought that the 780, where going to be the top tier card that generation. But then 6 months later the 780 Ti came out and suddenly that was the top tier (not counting all the Titans cards, but I don't think those are that fair to compare with this)
And that's how it was for the next 2 generation as well, the 900 series had the 980 Ti and there were the 1080 Ti as well. But what I always felt Nvidia really had done, was taking logic we where use to, that the ''80's'' was suppose to the best and then put Ti at the end of it and have it come out 6-12 months later, with an insanely high price tag. So how I see it, then suddenly the 780 Ti, with the logic we where used too, with which number the cards where named changed. Based on how it used to be, the 780 Ti would have been called 780, the 780 would have been 770, and so on. And the same with the 900 and 1000 series.
Where I am going with this, is that I think that what's going on again. I think that 6-12 months down the line, some new card with a new name or number that's not a Titan, will come out and be new ''Ti'' or ''80'' .
I think that Nvidia is messing with what we think is how things work and using it to raise the prices Even More this generation, that they already have so far, with the upcoming cards.
It could even make the new cards look even more powerful compared to last generation, that they actually are, at least in compare to their equivalent numbered little brothers. So really what it should be compared to (if I am right about my predictions), is the Gtx 1060 (6gb).
Or I am wrong about all this and Nvidia is doing us all a favor and coming out with the very best gaming card from launch day, because it's been over 2 years since last generation gaming cards, where released.
But I doubt it.

Dunzaus got a reaction from WereCat in Which one of these 4, 240Hz Monitors should I pick?
You can tell by the second line that is was clearly a misspelling, so why even post this?

Okay thanks! <3
