    May be the silliest and most around the elbow self argument I have heard in a damn long time.
     
    You don't seem to grasp what a cell phone, smart phone, or whatever you want to call the device is supposed to be.
     
    You don't learn how to use a smartphone, it's intuitive and "just is".  You don't learn how to treat them like laptops, or how to code Android, or all that.  You use them, for the phone, texting, video watching, easy ass laptop they are.
     
    All I am seeing is how you want a smartphone to be something it isn't, and when it isn't... it sucks.  And of course you are the hero of your own story as well as the victim.  My parents make my pay, Android isn't as good as my skills, etc etc etc.
     
    Do you know what you have in common with Gates, Job, Musk, etc?  You have the potential to actually walk the walk, cuz all you're doing is talking the talk.  They had an issue and made a solution.  So far you're just whining. DO something, kid.

    Mihle reacted to Alex Atkin UK in Is the 16GB RAM benchmark becoming obsolete?   
    Its not easy to judge given Windows will quite actively page out anything it thinks it doesn't need "right now", as you still need some RAM left over for the IO cache.
     
    All games AFAIK benefit to some degree from having a bigger IO cache, as it completely eliminates having to go to the SSD for an asset it had already loaded previously but had been removed from RAM as it wasn't needed for a while.  However fast SSDs are, pulling assets from the RAM cache is way faster and especially if Windows is messing around paging stuff.
     
    In Linux for example, a lot of distros have moved to having the pagefile (swap) in RAM so rather than pushing it to the SSD it is compressed and put into a virtual pagefile in RAM.  It seems kind of nuts initially but with CPUs being so fast just compressing that data so it takes up less and moving it from normal RAM to the swap RAM is far more efficient than dumping it to permanent storage using up SSD writes.
     
    Simply put, you can't have too much RAM (as long as you didn't sacrifice on the RAM timings to get more RAM) as it can always be used by the OS to improve performance.
     
    Also you mention Horizon, its possible if you HAD 16GB on the GPU you would then run into a system RAM problem, as all assets have to move via system RAM to get to VRAM.  The more VRAM you have, the more system RAM you need also.

    Mihle reacted to Avocado Diaboli in Living without a cellphone of any kind. Is it possible?   
    This whole thread screams "I've made up my mind, but I want third party confirmation". It's ok if you want to try to live without a cellphone because you can't be trusted to not mess them up or because you don't want to spend your own money on your phone plan. But don't ask of other people to agree with your assessment just to make yourself feel better about your choice. You do you. Report back how you like living without a cellphone.

    Don't, it's not worth it, CPU folding is horribly bad. I'm just not paying for the power and they aren't in my home. I do it just to find out how much you need to be equivalent to a particular GPU. You end up using between 6kw and 9kw just to match a middle to high end GPU using only 150W-250W, as you can see super not good.

    Mihle got a reaction from Westingham in 4k monitor: 28" or 32"?   
    1440p 32"?
    I highly disagree, at normal monitor distance that is. That pixel density is too low.
    1440p is maximum 27" for me.
     
    Personally I am running a 4K 32" and I like its size and resolution a lot, even higher resolution would still be noticeable tho but don't need more.
     
    Even at 28" you can notice the difference between 1440p and 4k, without having to focus on it, but difference ofc is smaller. There is still a benefit, but less so than on 32".
     
    Its actually more noticeable in desktop usage, word browser etc than in games, but also more noticeable in games than in movies.
     
    If I personally had to choose:
    32": 4k 60hz > 1440p 144hz
    27/28": 1440p 144hz > 4k 60hz
     
    If you can't have 4k with higher frequency.
     
    But for OP:
    Yes, at 4k, 32" is more common for people to buy, therefore there exist more of them. People getting 27" more often get 1440p monitors. But if you actually think 32" is too large for you, I wouldn't prioritize that because it's 4k over a 1440p 27".
