Thermals are definitely wonky and often needs tuning. My powercolor had atrocious thermals till I saw that it was oc-ed past the spec and runs 40% of available fan speed and throttle the clocks in a very questionable way to the spec values. It did work. But seeing 95C on hotspot is not really a thing I wanted to see. Now it’s more or less fine in the current age of gpus. It’s 83c max with spec-ed frequencies and better fan curve.
I’m not particularly a fan of GTA series. However did completed every one of them since GTA III. My issue with GTA VI trailer though is that it looks too realistic, and not really well stylized. It doesn’t ring the vibe of Vice City. And it doesn’t look catchy for my eye. Would love to be proven wrong after release (More good games to complete). I can acknowledge that lighting tech is impressive. Animations are good. And environment is detailed. But atm it looks soulless for me comparing it even to the same GTA V. And story wise tracking 3 doofuses idiotic plans was actually fan. Here I don’t feel anything remotely special atm. Might be a damn good sandbox. But will it be the actual successor amongst the series games is under the question.
This happened before, afair. Games specifically requested newer version of the driver. And there was no workaround. At the time it was also very annoying. Because newer driver was performing much worse on some series of cards. And you practically had to choose do you want to play newer game or you want to have better experience in older game. The issue now though, will they really tolerate llm/advertisement/lagfest/vibecoded mess that is win11, or else. The answer for the most part ofc they will, most of the base is the old dog that doesn’t learn new tricks, which is soo damn annoying. But at least maybe some % of skilled users that already have some experience would be pushed to drop win.
Putting aside that it’s idiotic anticonsumer patent. May I just ask here. How tf this even gets patented? Should I patent the act of showing the advertisement sign to my neighbors every time they open their door, so I can get exclusivity rights ownership on doing such an idiotic thing? Like why it gets accepted? It doesn’t sound even remotely technologically meaningful, neither it needs to withstand concurrency. It’s just a waste of tax money.
