its that or some flavor of linux, and you are just signing up for a different set of problems. also dx and stuff.

i guess the other option is macos, which is squarely for people who cant use computers and could basically function equally well on a phone or tablet.

anyway, raptor lake looks lovely.
macos is a linux

I stopped paying attention to intel- did they finally get to an actual 10nm node they can get any yields from? is the core actually not a rehashed skylake now?

Radeon drivers have improved to the degree where issues are mostly edge cases instead of "This new game literally does not work until AMD issues an update, which then breaks 2 other games", but they're still not great. Leagues ahead of what they were in the early 2000s though

What's funny is that amd will probably respond with 3d cache versions of the 7000 series and immediately leapfrog Intel again

The new Ryzen stuff is basically designed to boost until it hits 90C and stays there, and yet it still uses less power

that's been true for everything for well over a decade though, run as hard as possible until you hit just short of where the hardware starts to melt, then back off only as needed.

only weirdo nerds on the internet ever tried to cool stuff below its designed temperature limit.
I don't think the previous Ryzen gens were straight up designed to run at 90C continuously even with water cooling.
