  1. Why not, he makes videos for the pc builder enthusiast that spend the extra dollar to get newer and better gaming gpu's, whereas non-ethusiast people might just think aslong I can watch youtube videos I don't care about the performance of my low end gpu. My point is there is a big audience to see benchmarks in high end gpu to see how much it benefits from FSR. But yes you're right low end gpu's would be nice, but would you consider 1080 Ti to be low end right now? Anyway here low end gpu's, I time stamped it.
  2. I thought you guys want to be informed about this so below the youtube video, at the moment I'm still watching the video. Reading the youtube comments people are hyped, so I'm watching it now. Edit: I've just watched the video, quite interesting. It seems UE5 can start competing with movie visuals.
  3. The reason I'm updating it, because back then when I was searching for a nice comfortable chair. I never could find any proper before and after screenshots of after 2 years of moderate/heavy use and basically went blind for already 4 times. My first and second chair I bought was from Staples like a 80-110 euro fake leather chair both wear off after 6 months making my room all messy with fake leather stuff on the floor. Obviously I kept using it for 1-1,5 year, because it was comfortable and didn't have the money to buy a new chair. Later on I used a PU-leather chair from germany, I don't remember the brand but it was a office chair and cost me €140-150 euros (yellow stripe in the middle and best comfort of all chairs) that one survived 1+ year and after that the fake leather started to fall off and after 2 years I replaced it with this chair. So maxnomic chairs or chairs from needforseat.de are not good enough for me for the money I spent on it, considering it cost me around €400. I don't want to make the jump for a herman miller chair at €1000+ and second hand is as expensive in europe. So I will end up looking for a €200-400 chair that probably doesn't use fake leather at all. I might try noble chair with real leather or something else with real leather. Or choose one of the chairs that topped in gamersnexus chair review with the blue seat.
  4. Updated after 2 years of use, seems I need a new chair now. This chair can't handle my ass (my weight is 90kg).
  5. Don't import, USA uses different bandwidth than China/EU, so you may not get internet with certain internet providers in USA. Just wait, one benefit is of the gaming phone that it will last long compared to S8. I expect you only to charge every 3 days with moderate use.
  6. Nice video, but Asus ROG phone doesn't start at $1500 dollars. It's actually misleading tbh, the 3 versions do not differ from chipset but just GB memory and storage. It's unfair to compare to mention redmagic price with 128gb storage against rog Phone 5 with max storage and GB memory, when they've a 128gb storage version for $750 dollars. The Rog Phone 5 ultimate is just made for the fancy pants that want their phone look cooler and don't care about price/performance ratio. Would have been better to mention that the Rog Phone 5 have cheaper models with same gaming performance. Now it sounds you're punishing Asus for them to provide a fancy pants phone when they have cheaper models with a more reasonable price that are gaming phones. Anyway this is not an attack, I just wished you guys were a tiny bit more informative about the options and pricing of the Rog Phone 5. I hope you guys pick this up next time when you guys do a comparison and have a nice day!
  7. Anything better than 1080ti... actually, because cpu is the bottleneck. Example on 1080p M&B Bannerlord II:
  8. Well as for the 3000 series, we've yet to find out as it appears for example 3090 to run at 100 degrees when mining and 86 degrees without overclocking memory. Older GPU seem not to have that hot VRAM temps although they still die. I've had 3 gpu's die on me past 14 years (geforce 8800 2x and gtx 280 , they all had lines (sign of vram not working properly) on my screen and couldn't fix them by putting my last one in an oven (yes that was one of the solutions you could try to fix vram). My current MSI 1080 Ti (3+ years old) is already doing with occasional lines if I overclock my memory with +50 mhz (and coil whines now) probably because I have been mining past 1,5 month and earned €200 with it (it could handle +200 mhz before). So I stopped mining and run my memory at stock now, hoping it will survive otherwise long enough for gpu prices to recover xd. ----------------- My initial point of the topic was that Linus has made several video's stating that miners are not a worse if not better buy for second hand, because they run their gpu's at lower temperature. But he ignores the fact that VRAM temperatures are not lowered, they're actually overclocked and run higher than stock. For example 3090 without overclocking memory it should run around 86 degrees or lower. Whereas miners that want increase their mining efficiency overclock their memory as that is the most important thing to overclock for mining.
  9. Actually higher DRAM density is more sensitive to heat, that's why it even plays more. Same with 7nm CPU's degrading faster due to higher voltage and heat (my 3600 degraded 0.1 ghz within 1 year from 4.3ghz allcore to 4.2 ghz at higher voltage). That's the reason the research is even more relevant because they've found high density DRAM cells to be degrading faster. Quote from abstract: "Abstract: The band-to-defect tunneling (BDT) induced junction leakage current of high density DRAM cell transistors under off-state bias-temperature (B-T) stress was studied in detail for the first time. It was found that the BDT leakage current is most critical for limiting the cell transistor scaling. The new off-state B-T stress was proven to be a very effective reliability assessment tool for leakage current degradation of the DRAM cell transistor. It was also found to be useful for assessing reliability degradation of future high density DRAMs." -https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/922872 But thing is, CPU's generally survive way longer than anybody will probably use the CPU. So if AMD goes 5nm the cpu will prolly drop from 14 years to 13 years life expectancy same with GPU chip, so that's no problem. But VRAM on videocards seem to die way quicker, whereas the GPU chip is pretty much the last thing that will die on a gpu. It simply will then not turn on, whereas with VRAM problems you get these weird artefacts on your screen as VRAMs are like chiplets so if one dies gpu can still work albeit with artefacts. -------------- But I appreciate your take, otherwise I wouldn't have had the chance explaining my view on it.
  10. come on can you guys watch the video here the link 54k likes and 13k views
  11. Rewatched the video part, but he never stated such thing. He said to start throwing memory errors (elevated retention time degradation) within 4 month of usage, is exactly what he was talking about the memory retention. Meaning that it will get slower due to the errors, which certainly can affect the lifespan of the card.
  12. It is peer reviewed, and degradation is not equal to gpu dying.
  13. Not really as shown in youtube video referencing the research, at 350 (1157,407 days) kelvin at already degrades significantly faster than than at 300 kelvin as 400 kelvin compared to 350 kelvin ( 10000000 seconds = 116 days)
  14. "As to what degree is under argument." Not really as shown in youtube video referencing the research, at 350 (1157,407 days) kelvin at already degrades significantly faster than than at 300 kelvin as 400 kelvin compared to 350 kelving ( 100000 seconds = 116 days)
  15. How will you manage the summer actually? Or do you use A/C? As your question about PSU I actually can't find it in the discord chat with him. He had a gold psu from corsair, and 2 platinum psu's that server rigs use. You know that ugly, long loud thing (he also had more PSU's but didn't go in detail with me). He had a mining rig at the company of his brother that agreed to let him mine (he had a empty room to mine, and that room would hit around 40 degrees in the summer it).
