    BuckGup got a reaction from riba2233 in YouTube SHOULD charge for 4K. Hear me out.   
    I think people forget Youtube did this to themselves by promoting longer videos to be more profitable and having a multi minute ad roll in the video doesn't help either. They also launched Reels so to think it's okay for Youtube to charge is absurd. Maybe they could spend millions on making a better codec or platform that doesn't rely on 30 minute videos to be non advertiser friendly

    BuckGup got a reaction from Hi P in Are NVMe drives useful for gaming? Who needs PCIe 5.0?   
    I give it 4 years. So many servers now are using NVME drives doing special offloading or purely for speed

    BuckGup got a reaction from Nocturn in Are Zotac cards actually bad?   
    With most aftermarket board partners it is hit or miss depending on what SKU and what generation. Almost all companies have had stellar cards and cards plagued with issues. 
     
    I would watch https://www.youtube.com/c/ActuallyHardcoreOverclocking/videos
    As they usually have a breakdown of specifics for flagship GPUs that will help determine if it's a good or bad product.
     
    Personally I have owned 2 Zotac cards. A GTX980ti Amp Extreme and a GTX1080 Amp Extreme. Both overclocked into the top 5% of cards and were only on air cooling. In contrast though the Zotac Amp is a steaming pile of garbage with VRMs that hit 105C and are likely to fail.

    Apple is 100% going to release their own crypto currency. They are just waiting for the market to mature per usual.

    BuckGup got a reaction from MultiGamerClub in Is the fastest GPU ALWAYS the best?   
    Why do they NEED clickbait titles? To make more money to produce content you can't even find because of the clickbait titles. LTT actively choses to spread dishonest, misinformation, and misleading information with their video titles for the simple fact of more money. LTT made better content when they had less money so destroying your own brand for money seems absolutely idiotic/mid life Linus crisis

    BuckGup got a reaction from RockSolid1106 in Taxies BUT in the Sky - Boeing-backed Wisk Aero reveals a four-seater autonomous air taxi   
    Anytime you are a passenger you are effectively in a self driving car that performs worse than AI. Are you going to run to the cockpit and fly a 747 when the pilot passes out? How about a train or a bus? You already accept your life is in the operators hands and as far as you know it's not even piloted by a human, so what's the difference?

    Little trigger happy I would say. The OP isn't providing any data and as far as we know it's for a school assignment. 
     
    I would sit down and create a UML diagram so you can determine inheritance, private data, keys, and how to efficiently join them if needed. It's much easier to see the flow of data before being balls deep not knowing what's happening

    BuckGup reacted to Spotty in Play Fair, Intel   
    The reason for using the memory speed they did is because that's what AMD and Intel list as the max supported memory for those CPUs. You can't blame Intel for not overclocking the systems in their benchmarks beyond manufacturers specified supported speeds, even if memory overclocking (XMP) is common in the enthusiast community.

    BuckGup got a reaction from thechinchinsong in AMD Radeon RX 7000-series RDNA3 GPUs May Approach 4.0GHz GPU Boost Clocks   
    The reference speed was 1000Mhz with boosts to 1076Mhz on reference boards. I had a Zotac Amp Extreme so it was technically a 2.5 slot cooler which helped a lot with OCing on air. Nvidia sorta axed the OCing fun with GPUboost and onboard voltage control that prevents you from going higher
