Combined with proper presentation a la Jensen Huang the experienced Nvidiot will literally buy this voodoo magic no matter the cost.
It's got AI and upscaling and fake frames!
RogueSix wrote on May 19, 2025, 15:37:No mate, read the article. GeForce was introduced in 1999. Either way, the guy is off, way off.
I'm sure he simply misspoke and meant to say "GeForce gaming is now 30 years old", not PC gaming. Dude isn't Joe Biden yet but he's not 25 anymore either.
Kxmode wrote on May 19, 2025, 17:21:You really think so? Plenty of disgruntled GTX 970 owners sold their crippled card to buy…… a GTX 980 - that’s a lot of tolerance in my book.
If NVIDIA is doing this, it risks its brand. Consumers don't tolerate dishonesty, especially with expensive products. Trust is fragile; it's hard to rebuild once it's broken.![]()

Eh, its becoming pretty obvious that nvidia is no longer giving a shit about their dedicated graphics cards….
…I suspect that AMD will overtake them in the 3D space and NVIdia won't give a damn.
Jim wrote on May 8, 2025, 19:01:Where? RDNA 3 and earlier lack the RT hardware to fully support FSR 4. AMD could improve compatibility of these cards with FSR 4 but that doesn't make them as fast as RDNA 4 hardware.
I read elsewhere
also been getting hard crashes on Expedition 33, hope this helps.

Too bad I’m more into the sci-fi genre, would’ve bought a properly remastered System Shock 2 in an instant…
Fallout 3 will be the next remastered game. Maybe we will get a shadowdrop of F3 Remastered in 2027? And the new TES VI in 2029?

Dont believe me,

To the Wish Lists you go! Hopefully there is a GoG release, looks like single player, no need for me to buy it on Steam, etc.

AMD did a pretty good launch with the 9700 XT ngl
Burrito of Peace wrote on Mar 4, 2025, 12:55:Exactly the same here. I skipped the 7900 series but I’m now super curious about the 9070 XT to replace my 6900 XT. Hopefully it’ll be faster ~50 percent in raw and ~100 percent in RT. Please AMD don’t mess this up.El Pit wrote on Mar 4, 2025, 12:46:
...I'm really interested in the RX 9070 XT benchmarks tomorrow.
Likewise. I am very curious to see how it stacks up against my 6900XT not just in terms of performance but also efficiency. For that matter, I would like to see how the regular 9070 stacks up against my 6900XT. If it provides the same performance at a lower power draw, it's gonna be an insta-buy from me.
RogueSix wrote on Mar 2, 2025, 18:40:Sorry mate, at this point there’s no need to prove anything. Nvidia has been working on building a really bad reputation for years. I for one got fucked over by their wonderful GTX 970 „feature“. It’s just how Nvidia works. Yes, they fooled me once but no, not twice. If people keep buying their overpriced, broken, proprietary garbage, they keep getting fooled by them AND they deserve it.
Prove it.

What is infuriating and even worse than the inflated prices of the 50xx, is the fact that Nvidia stopped production of the 40xx series, even though they knew they will not have enough 50xx cards in stock, thus skyrocketing the prices of the remaining 40xx stock as well![]()

Lol, pathetic.
5060 sold as a 5070 at 5080 prices.

Both Nvidia and AMD are releasing products for gaming on the old 5nm node process, same as previous gen. Both are expected to upgrade to 3nm in the second half of the year. That's probably going to be a better value if you can wait.
WitcherOntheProwl wrote on Jan 20, 2025, 21:19:I couldn’t agree more. It’s beyond me why people get hyped up about a song that has been remixed for the sixth time now. At the end of the day it’s nothing but rinse/repeat with slightly changed game mechanics and up to date graphics. But for some reason the name ‘Civilization’ appears to work great as cash cow to be milked forever. I’ve stopped playing this game when it was v2 and moved on to something new….
No way in hell is this game worth $70. Looks like I'll be waiting many, many months for a heavy discount.
