AFAIK they are all producing AIBs ('add in boards').

Just that for the longest time nvidia and ati/amd have referred to 3rd party makers as 'add in board partners', or 'AIB partners', shortened to 'AIB's.

AIB is an "add in board". It's any graphics card that isn't a reference model.

Until recently, all graphics cards were AIB. nVidia has started directly selling "founders editions" before AIBs are available. In general, you can expect better performance out of AIB models.

Hmmm. I would have thought that even Founders editions would be add in boards as you add them into your system. So basically any Graphics card not manufactured by the GPU maker (nVidia/AMD) is an AIB?

AIB does not refer to the cards nVidia or AMD manufacture.
And it really doesn't refer to any other card you can stick in a slot, it's mainly used when referring to gpu's.

Gators are mobile, agile, and fast. If you live in an area with them it's safe to assume that you shouldn't be - or walking your pet - down by a waterline, especially one you can't see in to. That's just common sense. It's like going for a hike in a jungle known to be infested with aggressive poisonous vipers and not wearing snake boots. It's just asking for trouble.

happy belated birthday blue !!!!!!!!

DX500 Case

I do not like their web designer, but that is a great looking case, enjoy!

As for the gator, I thought the dog did have a leash in the video, or am I just thinking of the after shots? I would have done the same thing. Now the gator would have just eaten me, because scrawny nerd arms are not good for saving anything, but that is just another reason I don’t live in Florida...

City Puts Up Christmas Lights. What a bunch of dicks. Everyone knows Xmas lights don't go up until after Thanksgiving.

Yeah! Mah CPU showed up today! So now I have my BeQuiet DX500 Case, Ryzen 5 5600X CPU, and my MSI B550 Tomahawk Mobo! Woot! Was worried the CPU was going to take a long time to get here but that was only 3 days. Noice! I hope the AIBs for the 6800XTs show up as quick!

So now I need to finalize on RAM and NVME. Thinking I'm going with G.Skill Trident Z Neo 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3600 CL16 Memory. For NVME I think I'm gonna just grab a 1TB Gen3 Western Digital SN750 for now and then get a Gen 4 2TB - or better - when prices come down on them in a year or so. The Gen 3 will do just fine for now. So Ima wait until Monday - for Cyber Monday - and hopefully they'll be on sale, but if not I'll pull the trigger anyway. Cool fucking beans.

Oh yeah, whilst I'm posting snaps. I made some crate shelving units a while back, check 'em out. I mainly made the large one to cover up the furnace. I just need to put a planter on top or something. Works well. And the smaller one is on wheels and has all my outdoor stuff, hats, mitts, etc. and critter food! Note my Home rug. Got that off Amazon. Love it, it really pops and matches the red for the units.

I see you're getting a 6800 XT for graphics but what is AIB?

DO NOT SAY "Good Man" for the alligator story. Where the hell is the leash for the dog? This is A typical story ya hear about 10 times a year where elderly don't pay attention to their pets or their environments, and live right next to a canal that has gators.
Stupid pet owners should not be able to have pets.

Most people shouldn't have a pet, a kid, a car or even a job. What are you going to do though, humanity is a shitshow.

Soon the answer will be "There's an AI for that."

Goddamned straight. And yes, that guy is a typical Florida Man moron.

According to this report it was in his backyard. And they relocated the gator, so I don't know that it's fair to make is sound like that pond is an alligator infested waterway.

Beefcake, obviously.
