    checks Team Fortress 2

    500+ fps

    checks PCSX2

    60fps locked and stable

    checks Elden Ring

    …it works, we’ll put it that way

    I’m good. What good is a $3k graphics card in a generation with no games?

    Now that AMD is supposedly out of the high end graphics card market, it seems like high end gpus are going to go for a fun pricing range.

      I have a non ti 1080 and every subsequent generation seems to have been worse with everything from firmware issues to actual fires.

    Jensen can keep his GPUs, the way AAA gaming is going I’ll be playing indies for the foreseeable future or playing on console. I have evolved into a patient gamer. It also has the advantage that if I want to see some theorycrafting I won’t be swamped with youtube suggestions about pronouns or diversity. I’m not starting to use an account, I’m not American nor am I a conservative google, stop trying. I’m fine with different looking people in my games telling different stories. Also, TLOUII was one the greatest games of all time.

    I already have a 4090 and I’m going to buy a 5090 and there’s nothing any of you can do to stop me.

      Random Tangent: I rather buy a nicer HDR monitor with that money. HDR Gaming is where it’s at. SDR looks like washed out, dim dogshit to me now.

      I offer an alternative to people who want nicer graphics: consider an OLED HDR monitor. HDR has like no performance impact but looks 10,000x better.

          I have a 4090 and my display supports HDR and its disabled because fuck HDR. Do people actually like getting blasted with a floodlight because HDR automatically maxes your screen brightness? Like fuck I think my screen with HDR enabled is brighter than my lamp.

              That’s default behaviour on windows11, I have an MSI titan laptop that definitely supports it. I’ve done 0 to configure it. My brightness is typically at minimum or near to, enabling HDR immediately and consistently maxes brightness on the majority of the screen. It’s utterly unusable. It goes with things that people say matters like 1000nits of brightness or whatever when I actually want like 300, so my eyes don’t start bleeding.

                I’ll say it again. You have it misconfigured. That isn’t what HDR is supposed to do. You either have settings wrong in Windows, or in the games.

                  That is default windows, if it’s misconfigured then it ships misconfigured. I’ve done nothing except click the slider that turns it on, and then 5 seconds later off again as the dark mode settings menu blasts me with the full force of the screen.

                  If default doesn’t work, I don’t really feel like repeatedly blasting my eyes with full brightness until I figure out how to make it not burn out my retinas.

                  I think the issue is HDR requires the r part, being range, and I want it to not blast my eyes which anything above 20% brightness does if I’m inside, and default probably uses 100% of the brightness range and that actually causes pain.

                  Edit: to be clear, never made it to a game. Getting flash banged by the settings menu was bad enough thanks, don’t need to deal with something intended to be a flashbang.

    Not just an AI company, then.

    It is, don’t use Nvidia cards for gaming the p2p isn’t worth it
