    So dinner got delayed, just sitting down to eat now. I've divvyed out the prizes and the final ranks have been done. With that said, I'm still expecting it to be in the next couple when the post is up.

    Userbenchmark is an untrustworthy site that heavily biases Intel.

    Time to make dinner then I'll get around to the awards post. Expect it in 3-4 hours time most probably.

    Just an update, I will probably do the final ranks and prizes this evening/tomorrow. 
     
    I'm not feeling too bad, just feels like I'm trying to catch my breath all the time. It's actually rather irritating. But I'm definitely don't have COVID so I guess that's something.

    This is a thread about cars. If you are not into that then the door is on the right. 'tis also in off topic.
     
    It's finally here. The long awaited and often discussed car thread.
    Welcome to the Garage. Pull up a chair and have a cold beverage as we discuss cars

     
    It's time to get this thing going! It's been talked about many times in various threads and it's time to git'r done
     
    Rules:
    Anyone that's interested in cars can join.

    Fanboying is looked down upon.
    Car guys respect other car guys. If you are into Americana,Japanese cars or european cars or anything in between you are welcome
    And respect other peoples opinion. I do not like the 2JZ. You might. And there is nothing wrong with that
    Blatantly bashing any cars from a certain market. Be it american cars,Japanese cars or european cars. without basis is dumb. And should not be done in this thread.
    This is mostly because it's tiresome to read through and can start an argument. Debate is fine. Arguments are just a waste of time.
     
    Do not bash another guys car.
    Because it's a dick move. And being a dick is against the CoC (harharhar)
     
    Respectfully disagreeing is alright. Intentionally bashing something to bait people is not.
    Word your opinions properly and bring up fair points or explain your problems with a certain thing clearly.
     
    Can i talk about TRAINS!?
    No WinNut. No you cannot. No
     
    If you quote someone with a picture in their post. Snip the picture. 
    The car might be nice but we don't need to see it twice^^ 
     
    Bae means shit. For the love of god.. stop 
     
    Get stuck in. Get as technical as you want to get. Ask questions and get answers, Post nice cars (Don't post too many pictures though)
    Entertain us with car trivia or tell a funny car related story.

    Companies frankly don’t give a shit where their GPUs end up as long as they get the money they ask for them. 
     
    Could you also provide a source that shows miners buying ‘thousands’ of GPUs?
     
    I wouldn’t regard bots as being unethical personally but opinions differ. If I wanted to buy a modern GPU I sure as hell would be using a bot off GitHub to maximize my chances.

    I never claimed miners provide value to the world. I’m just annoyed that gamers don’t understand that if you apply the same method of thinking to their argument, the results are near identical. 
    I would consider myself to be neutral. I own exactly $1 of Bitcoin, which would require exponential growth to make it in any way worthwhile. I barely play games, I’m more interested in their production, their potential and the history of the medium. I honestly couldn’t care less which side will ‘win’.

    Perhaps I misunderstood the intention, but I understood that reply as that they shouldn't cater to either party.
     
    I think there are multiple things that make this tricky. For one there are like what, maybe a handful of AAA games per year(?) that come out and honestly justify a 3080 level card. Or what if I just go interested into gaming this month and want to play CP2077 as maxed out as possible, I suddenly wouldn't be "allowed" to buy a high end GPU, because you don't consider me a gamer for not knowing my history. Even LTT's VAG program is biased towards Linus's age group / demographic and that is a very core issue with all these things. You'll have to pass moral judgement on who you do and do not consider a "valid gamer", and nobody wants to seriously touch that with a 10 km pole.

    Or maybe it's because people don't feel the need to upgrade every generation and that the MSRP keeps going up every generation making ANY upgrades less beneficial overall. the 1060 is still a very capable card.
     
    If your current hardware is meeting your needs, why waste money on something better if you're not going to be utilising the addtiional power?
     
    I dispute this. Based on the posts on this forum, on reddit, news articles etc, I would same Gamers are actually pretty stupid. They get tunnel vision to such an extreme that they lose all critical thinking and speak based on purely emotion when things don't go their way.
     
    the 1060 to 2060 was a bigger leap in performance than the 2060 to 3060

    Why should GPU manufacturers cater specifically to gamers who provide little-to-no value to the world?
