Brad’s mic is so bad lol

In Japan, at many of the US bases there is a sign at the front gate in English that tells everyone the number of days since the last DUI incident. The longest I ever saw was 37 days until it reset as it is usually in the single digits. Wild.

I have 3 nvidia engineering samples from nvidia. 2 very early gtx280's and a gtx260 with all 240 SPs unlocked, and a display port on it.

I'm using the native adapter I got with my Gigabyte OC until my cable mod cables come. No issues, I've OC/Benchmarked, played games, and haven't had any issues yet. I seen a post on reddit of a guys cable melting. He had previously taken a picture of it plugged in, and it seemed like his cable was seated with the pins still sticking out.

Yoda be like" Part of the cool crowd you are.

Brad brought up a good point when he was talking about the power usage when gaming. I thought he was going to go further with the conversation. But the power usage would change drastically depending on what kind of games you play. With my 3090 I can be drawing 130 Watts on one game and well over 300 on another and depending on my graphic settings. It would be interesting if you guys did like a six-game test seeing what the difference is between different kinds of games. There was a lot of talk about the power usage of the RTX 3090 but after Nvidia released the drivers to better manage the wattage the GPU sometimes hardly uses any power compared to its max. If there is any bad grammar here it's because I'm using voice to text.

That headset mic is unlistenable. Please send him out an upgrade.

I my country a 4090GPU cost 2.82 times more than a Intel 13900 CPU. You can actually build a pretty nice complete PC for for the cost of a single 4090

Please sort out brads mic guys.. cracking is unbearable

Wholesale gas prices and electricity prices have been falling for weeks in Europe. At least in U.K. we are paying loads extra because the companies want to make lots of profit. I don’t know what the situation is like elsewhere in Europe but here we are suffering from greedy companies. Edited to add; peak wholesale price was back in the late-middle of September: around 23rd I think.

Sorry Gordon, the centered start menu is the best feature of Win11. Try running a 32:9 display, start menu on the left is awful. I ran a tool to center the start button on win 10.

Dude brads mic is god awful how has he not upgraded that thing

I will be upgrading my 6900XT because I'm 43, work and have the money and not persuaded by the youtube tech people. I will be going with the 7900XTX, possibly something from SAPPHIRE or a Gigabyte WaterCooled AIO version.

3090s from AIBs didn’t use the 12vhpwr connector, only the FE cards. Now, for the 4090 AIBs have to use it so that could explain why it wasn’t seen before.

Wow 12VHPWR is now getting dedicated slot on full nerd after finding place on 4090

The problem with AiB pushing the 7900XTX boundaries is within the power limits and connectors. And then the impact on price/performance. The "price" to get there may be too high. 3 connectors or picking the 12VHPWR crap Nvidia already got burned with? There is just no easy way to slip past that 150+150+75W limit.

When I plugged my 12vhpwr in, I thought it was in, but it was not. when I checked again it was loose. The pin is so small and light it can easily fool you. I pushed it in and got it to set. When it clicked in correctly, it was really tight, no movement whatsoever. I could have easily missed this and ran this pc with that loose connection.

Subscribed.

Good lord please use a de-esser on Brads mic.

The real scandal with the 4090s is the loud coil whine. I sent mine back because of it. Back to using my quiet 2080 Ti from EVGA

nice show m8s

I think the amd card if you look at the specs of the asus tuf 7900xtx they are working on a different business model than nvidia. They actually stated as much that they were the base line.

For the love of all that is holy in this world, can somebody PLEASE buy Brad a new headset? It has sucked for months, and now, unfortunately, sounds even worse!

As someone who is leaning towards getting the 7900xtx, I'm really curious to what the other makers will do with it. Unfortunately, the ONLY Radeon GPU brand I've seen where I live, is Speedster..... Which looks like a knockoff, and I struggle to google precise info on it. :/

people comparing the GCD without the MCD die sizes added is false. the total die space for everything that comprises the 'gpu' needs to be compared to the monolithic die. 7900xt(x) 308mm2 + (6*37.5mm2) = 533mm2 it's cut up into different units and processes, so the yield and cost savings are potentially much better. GCD is 5nm, MCD are 6nm. 4090 608mm2 4nm the Radeon is smaller but not by that much, plus you have to add the 'fabric' interposer which has to be considered at some level because it's not just a simple slab of silicon. Production note: Got to get Brad mic'd up better, that head set mic isn't helping him out any.

Prometheus > Aliens. Also, in win 11 there is an option to align the taskbar to the left, which I don't recommend because living in the past is bad.

My 3080 sucks up 400W during load, the 4090 only 50W more and it's twice as fast, that's pretty good efficiency if you ask me it's just the 4090 is so freaking fast

How short minded people are and forget so quickly that with the 6000 Series AMD were the ones to give you plenty of memory at 16gigs and fast clocks out the gate, while Nvidia was still gimping cards even with the 3080 series and 3070 cards. Not sure why its still surprising that the 24 gigs and 20 gigs with newer cards!?? Doesn't sound like its coming from people who plan on buying the 7000 series anyway so...yeah.

2:13:41 The position of the start menu is absolutely worth getting upset about. There's no reason M$ can't just give users the choice. But that's one of the reasons I use Linux, where everything is customizable, and I can literally add 20 start menus if I want, and place them in every corner of the desktop, or delete them all, and have none. But looking back at Windows, it makes even less sense that users have no choice at all about the start menu. You're paying for it, to only get whatever choice is dished out to you by M$.

So much talk about the Reference design. Clearly there is alot of headroom left in the 7900 series cards. If we see three 8-pin connectors and a 500watt capability who knows what kind of performance we will see from the 7900 XTX.

1:38:00 - bad advice. When people look to your show for guidance on tech issues, and there's an ongoing tech issue, and you guys say it's not really something that you'd personally not be worried about - it will make some people think it's ok to just run it until shit hits the fan. Fire risk is not worth it until it is fully resolved and such safety concerns should not be downplayed.

I wonder if AMD kinda it’s trying to hook EVGA. Their said our 3rd parties have the freedom to make them better than our reference design one of EVGA issues with NVIDIA.

Yes, the 6900 xt is an animal at 1080p

MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD 3 APPS GUYS

Can you please say Radeon Deoxyribonucleic Acid 3 every time about AMD?

If a 1mm difference is causing the problem, then I disagree with Gordon. It has NOT been properly designed. A little bit of slop should be part of the design. On the other side, people are checking the cables. I'd like to see testing with in IR camera on the board, socket and plug. The IR info would give you a better clue, but have not heard of anyone doing so. Anyone bothered to check for undersized pins on the boards? OOT size in pin manufacturing would also cause a high resistance connection.

Gordon, you say AMD night have some nice advantages against Nvidia. Sure, but advantages don't mean anything if they can't get enough volume.

Gordon is trying to damage control for Nvidia so hard

Seriously Gordon, a laptop is not a replacement for a proper PC. I'd rather use a PC that consumes less power (either through more efficient parts or underclocking/undervolting) than a laptop. There are ways to consume a more reasonable amount of power, you had a video a few weeks ago about eco mode and with just a small reduction in performance you could get huge savings in energy consumption.

Less than 1% of users on Steam hardware survey have a 3090 or 3090ti. So no, not everyone is using these things despite them selling well.

The problem is you don't know how to enjoy Vegas.

Saying that end users may not be connecting their power cords into the 4090 correctly is not condemning the end user. And it doesn't take away responsibility from the cable manufacturer if there were changes made that weren't authorized. I don't think Nvidia is at fault here though since they're following spec. An industry spec. Why does everyone feel guilty about saying user error? That still could mean that the cords are not easy for everybody to plug in correctly. Personally, I think that this is just a smear attempt on Nvidia. Yes that sounds like a conspiracy theory but the way the media keeps going on and on and on about this is what it seems to me. The media these days is useless half the time because all they do is keep beating a dead horse that few people care about. And if something's corrected they don't usually correct it in their old coverage which is not good for the consumer. I got my eye on a 4090, 4080, or 4080 Ti when they come out. Until AMD actually matches Nvidia in all features, drivers and do them well I'm not going to consider AMD.

The EVGA thing seems somewhat clear to me - seems like the last shot of "Hey consumers, look how much you've lost because Nvidia sucks."

Scott may have said they're going to kick Nvidia's effing ass but it seems he keep fumbling the ball. That's too bad.

PLEASE buy Brad a decent microphone - painful to listen to also putting the headset mic soooo close to the mouth DOES NOT HELP at all

This is a copy and paste of a comment I made on another channel: You said mostly what I knew already but still a nice chat. 👍 That being said, if I was to spend $1000 dollars for a basic car I would just get the one that has all the bells and whistles for $200 more. 16gb versus 24 gb is not a deal breaker. 2.1? That is for rich boys and girls right now. Or none since there are hardly any displays that can take advantage of it. And it's annoying that AMD really didn't say that much that was worth anything to the average person. NDA? Why? It's not like Nvidia can go out and manufacture cards overnight to match. Nvidia already has their lineup anyway. Nvidia will always be ready to match AMD on any price point. That has always been their strength. Also I personally don't like how AMD takes shots at Intel or Nvidia. I want to hear a professional presentation like Jensen gives. I don't really recall him taking shots at the competition. That is one reason why I've shied away from AMD in the recent years. I was going to consider AMD if they could match Nvidia apples to apples but we're still at apples and oranges. I like Ray Tracing. I like how my GPU works fine with my streaming software. I like how my video editing goes. Etc.,etc. It's one thing to bring good rasterisation performance but when you've been using a card that's been reliable for years you stick with that brand. And the media across all spectrums doesn't really highlight the negatives of AMD products. They might say something at the very beginning but that's all you hear. But with Nvidia they just go week after week after week and it gets annoying. Like how people are still talking about the burning cables when there really isn't that many people that have complained about their cables melting. How many have complained? Was it significant enough to make such an uproar? It's nice to know that something happened but it doesn't seem like something that most people are going to even have a problem with. I could go on but people steal my thoughts all the time.

I'm sorry Gordon, usually I agree with you but this time I have to strongly disagree. Even if what you're saying is correct and it's because it wasn't connected properly than it's still the connectors fault because they didn't make it moron proof, + the no bending crap 3.5 cm F that it's still the connector fault. Design a better connector that doesn't have those limitations or leave it the good old reliable 8 pin.

First? First!

LOL its was a 3090 not 4090 goofs

Rx 7995 XTX 😅

evga is more of a murican thing, not in EU,i care less if they not doing gpu's

RDNA3 might be good but the AMD presentation was shit

The guy in the TV with the headset NEEDS A NEW MIC. The "TSSSSS" with every "X" or "S" pronounced IS SO SO ANNOYING. Please guys, just send him a good mic with a pop filter.

If the guys could please take a bit of constructive feedback. The "uhh" count is off the charts, love the gang and the content but it is becoming a rough listen.

I love that the 4090's shite cable is burning up!! I love it in fact!! That is what they get for always trying to go against the grain!!! They should have just went with 3 8 pins!!!

Eww laptops

amd can did it: more L3 catch: but nothing to do with this catch: nvidia: we need more catch: hahahaha i want: 64mb L2: and 1gb L3

you mean RX 7900 XTX Event cope lol

Is Brad using a Mic or Rice crispies? Snap, Crackle,Pop! It's time to retire the headset bro. Watch Brian @TechYesCity to learn how to set up great audio economically.

Conso!es use about 200watts. Mate that to a portable usb c 15inch screen and you're under 250!
