I must have missed the explanation as to why the "Pro" card has less memory than the non-Pro card (A770)?


The A2000?...

Oh, goody, just what the world needed... another font which at a glance has minimal if any distinguishing features from dozens (if not hundreds) of others!...

[Paradigm Shifter]

This is actually kind of neat. I won't buy one, but having an M1 Macbook Pro for work now, I can admit that occasionally Apple do get things right (last...

Great!

I still won't buy anything HP branded after the last time I tried to purchase a (very expensive) HP laptop from their online store...

We need a "laughed so hard I made my colleagues in the next office ask what was so funny" addition to the "Like" function....

[Paradigm Shifter]

It really depends what the bugs are, doesn't it? I can live with "minor glitch in display of hamburger menu in gedit" level things, but, "hoses...

Have in the past but not for months. As I said, haven't had time. Thanks for the reminder, though! ...

I've got an Asus "AMD Advantage" G15Y which does. 1440p, 165Hz VRR.

But I've given up trying to get Linux working on it at all,...

I suspect this can be translated as follows: "Genoa, a CPU range out since late last year, outperforms our about-to-be-released stuff, so we compare...

I'd actually be interested in a pair of 4060Ti 16GB cards if a manufacturer releases a version using a standard 8-pin rather than the 12VHPWR. Why, just...

[Paradigm Shifter]

I don't have to. But it gives me some time away from the desk. And we do have a couple of systems tucked away in the corner of that room which are...

And this will mean practically nothing if various controller boots, AGESA etc. are still in the minute-plus range. It's truly insane watching the pre-POST...

Sort of. The iGPU in the desktop 7000 series is kind of crippled. 2CU, IIRC? The mobile parts have more CUs......

IBM have CentOS Stream. Optimisation of resources. Why have a rapidly moving distro to feed into a rolling release to feed into the stable distro?...

[Paradigm Shifter]

Isn't openness and transparency wonderful?

What new sidechannel attack does this quietly workaround, I wonder?...

[Paradigm Shifter]

Chances are, though, that Linux will not run "just fine" on it, as Asus has repeatedly demonstrated the release of hardware with crippling problems...

[Paradigm Shifter]

Do Corsair manufacture them? Or just slap a sticker on something made by another ODM? Seems like fails at every level to me. That said, Phison have reacted...

[Paradigm Shifter]

I presume they mean the strict validation process which allowed this critical issue to actually reach consumer release? ...

[Paradigm Shifter]

Don't things which use lots of threads get faster if you give them more things to run threads on? So the same can be said of increasing the P-core co...

I'm frankly astonished at the heat a Samsung 980 puts out into the little NVMe/USB caddy I've got for it. Case gets absolutely scorching hot after prolonged...
