Yep it's also one of the three key innovations Ethereum are addressing with Ethereum 2.0:

Quote:

Docking mainnet with Eth2

* Eventually the current Ethereum mainnet will "dock" with the rest of the Eth2 upgrades.
* The docking will merge "Eth1" mainnet with the Eth2 beacon chain and sharding system.
* This will mark the end of proof-of-work for Ethereum, and the full transition to proof of stake.
* You might know this as "Phase 1.5" on technical roadmaps.


Fully agree a lot of that stuff should just be banned, like filthy cruise ships.

Its a very interesting topic. Which is why it deserves its own I think. Should we move to https://www.nfohump.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=73785&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=510 ?


"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

Seems to be one of the better choices, along with MSI (Very Happy):

Aye, the Asus TUF line is a very solid choice for RTX30x0 series cards - it usually is, always mid-range +.

Exactly this

Watch Dogs is crap, Cyberpunk was a flop, there's nothing new that comes close to needing a 3080/3090. There are games like The Medium that will benefit more but it's just because optimisation is garbage.

I haven't even used my 3080 PC in weeks. I've mostly been playing games on my laptop (Diablo 3, some emulators). 10XX/20XX series still play everything well enough. Even looking ahead for the year, I can't see much that would need it. Many games are still going to be cross platform for a while, like Far Cry 6, so until we start getting those new gen only games, I wouldn't say people are missing much.


But, but... 8k gaming... Okay

Yeah, flagships Graphics card are pointless for most people, as I said, up to 3070-6800 non XT should be more than enough for most people on PC gaming.

So many people taking advantage of the near total lack of 30x0-cards to sell last-gen mid-range cards for the price of 3x 3080'ies (MSRP though, in reality you would get two if you could find them).

I remember trying Star Citizen on a 780... then a 980... then a 1080... then a 2080... and now on a 3080 it still runs as poorly as ever Laughing


Star Citizen is still so unoptimized in its Alpha state it is very CPU dependent, even just depending on the server you get in can alter your FPS. It will be interesting to see when they make an effort to actually optimize the game if we will see big jumps in the FPS or if this will just become like Crysis and it will be another 10+ years before it runs well.

I think Star Citizen proved how long interest can last for, i too was scammed into backing at minimum. I'm so disinterested in it even the meme's have gotton old. Maybe a surprise S42 announcement will hype it back up or something.
