I said the opposite, if you don't run llm-s simultaneously to vam, you can live with a cheaper gpu. Price per fps the 5090 is not a good deal, in general the cpu limits vam. If you cannot buy 5090 effortlessly, then buy a 9800x3d with fast ram and a cheaper gpu, you gain more fps for half price...

The 5090 has 33% more CUDA cores, 33% more memory and 80% more memory bandwidth then the 4090 and VAM performance is roughly 50% better. The 4090 has same memory bandwidth then the 5080, but the 4090 has 50% more cuda cores, 33% more memory. Guess how compares the 5090 to 5080. All of them great...

Hi! I tested my new Apple MacBook Air M1 just for fun. This is the slowest M1 Apple rig, 8GB unified ram and 256GB SSD, and one of the world's best selling laptop. OS: MacOS Ventura 13.2. I was surprised how well it performed with the 10 watts TDP cpu+gpu config without active cooler. The game...

I'm just curious, and just expecting some test results.

Hi Mates! I'm wondering what to expect from upgrade a 3080 to 4070 ti, 4080 or 4090 with meta quest 2. Tom's hardware says in 4k: GeForce RTX 4090 100.0% (116.0fps) GeForce RTX 4080 78.7% (91.2fps) GeForce RTX 4070 Ti 62.7% (72.8fps) GeForce RTX 3080 54.1% (62.8fps) Can't find...

The old ASUS ROG Mothership with 200 watt gpu tdp/rtx 2080 faster than the 175 watt gpu tdp/rtx 3080 laptops. The RTX 4080 laptop gpus will be powered with tdp 150 watt. In raw GPU performance the 4080 will be a step back. Maybe DLSS supported games will profit from the new platform, or the...

The 12 gen not K Intel CPU-s can be overcloked with a blck motherboard, and just get one class performce increase: 12300 OC = 12400 noOC 12400 OC = 12600K noOC 12700 OC = 12700K noOC It is possible to OC my CPU, but is it worth to buy high end mobo to OC a "not so mid class" CPU? My opinion...

12900k cheaper than the 5900x3d, the 12700 just fights in totally different weight class. It is a shame we compare amd high end cpu with intel mid class cpu expecting same performace. Please don't feel offended, just wanted to figure out the consequentis of test results, and just wanted to help...

I was curious about the performance impact upgrading to win 11. All day testing... Real life install, with avg internet security, office ect., and 184 gb vam directory. Picked the most avarage results. First impressions, win 11 super responsive, fast as hell, huge inprovement in user...

Maybe they will be realesed at 2022 q4 but who knows the story of the double priced rtx cards and the mystical 12th gen cpus allways disappear before reaching the shops, or the horror priced ddr5 rams won't happen again? Don't feel offended, but I'm a little bit sceptical after the last two...

Just accept notebooks whoever has same peak power as the desktop configs, under continous load they sucks. I have an asus rog strix notebook and a macbook with earth shaking power, they are just so responsive you can't imagine. They load an app, before you hit the button. But when you start...

Please share some benchmark results! It will be interesting to know the VAM performance of the Shadow and other cloud pc-s!

The ultimate solution to your needs is cloud gaming. Where I live, there is only 4g internet, and can't use it. It is extremly portable, extremly fast, and cheap as hell, but you need blazing fast internet. I'm courious how VAM runnig on that rig: https://shadow.tech/. I think this is the future...

We just knows what the benchmark results show. It is a community software, with the benefits and limitations... The chart two or three pages back in this thread. I replaced my beloved asus rog strix notebook to pc, because when two years ago I bought it was cheaper, than a pc conf with same...

Physics time is not pure CPU performance, but it is affected heavily by single core performance. In the comparison chart you can see how the two Core i7-8750H 6C performance affected by the gpu, or the ryzen 7 group performance how differs.
