    Well then as a budget gamer going for AMD is a no brainer, because it's cheaper and Freesync monitors are more plentiful/cheaper. Not that you would use Freesync for all games, but having that option is very nice.
  2. ZetZet
    If you have a 60Hz monitor I wouldn't worry about input lag at all, that monitor will most likely absolutely demolish any gain/loss elsewhere. 60Hz monitors are usually extremely bad when it comes to input lag, since that is never the focus in their development.
  3. ZetZet
    AMD has anti-lag, Nvidia has Reflex. They do the same thing, it just depends on what the game supports. Essentially if you run the game at 200-400 fps then the input lag reduction doesn't do much anyway.
  4. ZetZet
    17.7-19 ms difference is hard to care about since even measuring that accurately is hard, let alone running identical benchmark conditions. But yeah, framerate cap has been known to reduce latency for a while now, that's kind of what reflex does by letting the CPU know much of the GPU it can still use so you get the benefit of maximum frames, but still reduced latency.
  5. ZetZet
    They have justification, taking market share away from Nvidia. Now if they use this card now is the real question that is still unanswered.
  6. ZetZet
    3D is completely dead so you have to go dumpster diving for it, cheapness is hard to quantify. Standards are also a mess since that particular format never took off.
  7. ZetZet
    That is debatable. If you look at other parts in PC industry they have come down in price a ton. PSU, cases, CPU coolers, storage (both HDD and SSD) have all reduced in price and keep going down. Nvidia just designed their cards for a wrong market. They finalized their design to push top tier performance right when a crash happened, so they went to a new smaller more expensive node and kept the same die size which makes them lose a lot of margin. I think a lot of people would be happier to return to 10-20% performance jump, but a price DECREASE instead of what Nvidia is doing now.

    People are just depressed that after two years price/performance floor was not lifted, or barely lifted. Basically everyone who managed to somehow luck out and buy a 3000 series GPU near MSRP are still going to be sitting pretty for another year (or two?). Some people like me are still hoping RDNA3 improves things a little bit. edit: Or even worse, if you still don't have a GPU buying something for MSRP TWO YEARS later just is super depressing.

    That military research was about spotting one frame that is wildly different from the rest, not actually spotting differences between frames. And for VR I think input lag is far more important than just raw framerate. Like sure, more is always better, but how much better is it. Human reaction time is the HUNDREDS of milliseconds.

    Stopped looking at phone benchmarks about 5 years ago. Makes no difference to average user. Actually at this point flagships are only worth buying if you take a lot of photos.
  11. ZetZet
    Something like 200 fps is more than enough to make it impossible to tell, the problem is that 0.1% and 1% lows and other spikes are also present, so they always try to push for 500 to reduce spikes.
  12. ZetZet
    More wire reduces resistance, connectors themselves are negligible. I just wonder if you will be able to remove power limits without the 600W pcie cable sense wires.
  13. ZetZet
    How would it not work, it's just copper wires.
  14. ZetZet
    Depends. If you're only buying this for this PC then there is no point of getting 850W. If you plan to use the PSU in your next build then definitely get the MSI 850 one. Best one by far and it doesn't look like PC power consumption is going to go down in the future.

    NDA drops in 4 days. We will see then.
  16. ZetZet
    It's probably some average on some workload, still 5.35GHz and 5.45GHz are both over what the CPU does by itself.
  17. ZetZet
    7950X all core boost is 5.1 GHz.
  18. ZetZet
    That's exactly what I've been saying. You see everyone crying about the prices and yet they will be out of stock for months after release.
  19. ZetZet
    We are choosing between native, dlss 2 and dlss 3. Like I said, 2 decreased latency with increased frames, so if dlss 3 increases frames further, but adds latency, it has no point of existing in my view.
  20. ZetZet
    But DLSS 2 decreased latency, DLSS 3 introduces it. If you get to choose between 60 and 80-90 fps, but 60 has less latency wouldn't you pick 60 most times? I know from my own experience almost all games with VSync are unplayable to me. Anyways Digital Foundry is releasing a video about DLSS 3 next week so we will get to see. If it actually does increase latency it's a completely dead feature to me, hopefully the games let you switch to dlss 2 if that's the case.
  21. ZetZet
    And you use DLSS 3 which interpolates frames by actually delaying showing what frame comes next. Gamers love latency! On their promotion images they showed this which made me raise my eyebrow a little bit. 58 ms input lag is absolutely insane, it will feel like you're playing a 20 fps game even if it shows 98 frames.
  22. ZetZet
    20% inflation 100% price increase I was planning to spend quite a bit on my upcoming upgrade, but at this point I think I've swung to the other side, going to build the most value build I can think of. If Zen4 comes out with 7600X at 370 euros like the current listings show I might just buy 12400F with DDR4, entire platform for the same price... My 1060 will have to last for a bit longer it seems.
  23. ZetZet
    They have a long way to go down still before going up. And we don't have a clue how aggressive AMD will be with rdna3.
  24. ZetZet
    My man it seems like you were born after the time of TV or radio.
  25. ZetZet
    That's not underhanded, that's just what happens. Reality is ads pay the bills or users do. Like I said, YouTube has been exceptionally ad free for the service their provided already so now it just looks "bad". But it's still not nearly as bad as everything else that existed before it or exists alongside it.
