it dont matter posted:Does this also apply if the GPU is plugged into a display, but the screen isn't on? I have a media server PC that's plugged into my TV, but I rarely use it through the TV directly: it's either streaming from Plex via a Shield, or I'm connected via remote desktop. It would potentially fix the no remote-desktop screen problem. The answer to your other question is more nebulous because it depends on what part of the GPU the application is using to transcode.

its definitely coming out, shortages or not. You might not ever get one. Releasing new products is how you maintain out of control sales and demand. Fauxtool fucked around with this message at 15:42 on Mar 23, 2021 |

I mean it doesn't make sense for them to really release anything new while material supply is low, doesn't mean they're not going to. Then even if they do the odds of it being widely available are tiny. They're definitely planning one since I think the 3080Ti was the card already announced then pushed back to get more 3060 stock out.

Then even if they do the odds of it being widely available are tiny. They're definitely planning one since I think the 3080Ti was the card already announced then pushed back to get more 3060 stock out. I was originally also of this mind, but I've changed my stance: it makes complete sense to drop a 3080Ti in the near future if Samsung's yields are up to snuff. Rumors have been floating about for some time that the yields are quite good, to the point that they've (reportedly) been pushing more 3090's than 3080's because they have the chips to do so. So instead of taking a GA102 that has, say 74-76 functional SMs and dropping it down to a 3080 (68 SMs) that they sell to AIBs for $300 or whatever, they instead sell it as a 74 SM 3080Ti for $400. More profit to NVidia for the same chip = galaxy brain win for them, since they're not getting a dime of the scalping profits that everyone else down the line has been. (this of course assumes they stick with the GA102. If they release a respun chip for it, then it makes a lot less sense)

There are upcoming leaks of the 2080 Ti but who knows when it'll be available. The bean counters are saying the supply shortages won't be resolved until later this year.

wolrah posted:It's weird, isn't it? Intel has a passthrough header that you can attach a third party CEC adapter to on certain NUC models but that's the closest to official support on any PC platform I'm aware of while it's near universal on ARM platforms. I used to wish that my NUC had that header, but on the other hand I'm glad I got the USB version instead now, as I'm hoping to be able to move my HTPC onto the same server as I've put everything else on. Assuming, of course, I can find a single-slot GPU which will offload h265 and other new codecs, while running off PCI-ex power (ie. limited to 75W). Does every GPU made today have to be the biggest that it can be? I was kinda hoping that was what the Intel DG1 could do, since in theory that'd be perfect, but apparently that's pretty much never going to happen.

LTT's VerifiedActualGamer is up, GPUs are still available as of the original time of posting. I went for the 3080 and the 3090. The 3080 is still validating the quiz results and 3090 let me buy after about 20s of waiting. Gotta say, the quiz was a good touch. If you had to look up the answers then you probably would not be able to complete it in time. The KOTOR one was the toughest for me. I picked turn based because i remember pausing in combat, but I think I had it confused for Mass Effect which I would consider real time with pausing.

The pandemic was a total divide of haves/have nots and almost anyone on the "have" side made out quite well. i just dont think these parts are that expensive, they're generally one time purchases rather than "hobbies" that constantly suck money. I personally think we are in a new era of popularity for GPUs (and not just because of mining) and expect demand to remain pretty robust for the next year+ people who socked away money for this and haven't gotten one, or who started saving in Nov and have gotten 2 stimulus checks...

Same, i put in donkey kong because I knew it was the "right" answer but not the correct one. The hearts seemed to indicate you could get 3-4 wrong and still pass.

I went for the 3080 first and i saw that the quiz was hanging so I opened a new tab and did the quiz for the 3090 which did complete. I never had a chance on the 3080 considering that I watched the video in full 15m after it debuted and did not skip to the end. Fauxtool fucked around with this message at 20:01 on Mar 23, 2021 |
