@nl37tgt Thats good to know, going by the press and youtube they make it seem like everything is terrible and will run at 30 fps unless you buy a 3090 or better. I've been out of PC gaming for a LONG time (consoles were good enough, got tired of tinkering with Windows) and want to get back in but am frustrated with what the press has become.

Ooo I am on a rant today! Tech wigs will be snatched!

Tech Press: ENOUGH with ad nauseam camera coverage of phones. If your review is more than 10 percent about the camera just stop! Even among nerds, most of us aren't photographers and simply don't care about f stops or megapixels beyond 12.

@GlytchMeister Or running optical thunderbolt in the walls of your new million dollar house (I still can't believe he made a video of all that and kept it up) At that point LTT is basically lifestyles of the rich and nerdy.

@nl37tgt I'm still looking hard at the Arc. The price is right and it sounds like the issues with older games can be solved with some driver updates. I'm way more average joe so I'm willing to take some risk.

"But were for enthusiasts"
No you're not, you are making stuff for rich people by rich people and to let the poors watch for ad rev.

Looking at you Linus.

"This graphics card TRAILS behind the NVIDIA card"

Actual difference: 1fps

The PC gaming press is BROKEN. All I want to know is if a graphics card is good enough to play the latest games with an approachable explanation (Think Wirecutter style). If I see one more FPS chart or worse, YOUTUBER flashing a chart on the screen and complaining about 2 FPS, I will lose my shit!

@jjmacnab Good. At a minimum people are hopefully just tired of dealing with them and constantly hearing their noise.

Well, now that my news blackout is over, the damage report isn't as bad as I feared.

Shits still gonna suck tho but I'm done wasting anxiety on it.

@martynp he’s always been rewarded, why would he expect to ever fail?
