External GPUs will be far more common when we get USB4 around standardized

so it's not too expensive for manufacturers to implement it

Now speaking of naming fuck GPU's who decided laptop GPU's have the exact same names as desktop GPU's and there's secretly 2/3 different product lines with the same name like the RTX 2069 something Max Q, Super, TI, and Max P

at least here you can get return/money back if product is not as advertised .. dropping that Max Q from advert is quite big nono

as its 30% performance hit :D

USB 1 and 2 were easy

Then other shit got added and everyone lost track, even the bastards that came up with the names lost track

"type C is the reversable plug"

But not every type C is created equal

And some will be usb3 and others wont

Fuck that

the scare of frying devices when power delivery was new

reeeeeeee

USB 1 and 2 were not easy

they didn't become retarded overnight

USB 1 was renamed to low speed when 1.1 came out, which was full speed

then usb 2 came and they called that high speed

USB 3 at least had the blue color suggestion, I remember USB 1 & 2 having no discernable difference

then they started making ports red for high power

and now we have red 10gbit ports too

that looks sick

Too bad it's fagshit for faggots

there's also yellow and red usb ports that dictate always-on

Oh the always on ports are neat when you get them on thinkpads

intel slashing prices with largeish cleaver as AMD brings competition

quite nice for everybody

and still overpriced compared to amd what is kind of fun

tldr : The 10 core cpu now is down to $600 from $990

:---DD

It doesn't matter how low they drop prices, because you should always Just Wait ™ for next product

I am gonna buy a Radeon 590 from sapphire

<:woah:333623269674713098>

First I wanted to get an xt 5700.
But I can't reason that price

Vega it up

56 is at decent prices

It just doesn't make any sense for someone, if I can use the rest of the money to buy more ram, more HDD and more ssd

@Tervy I heard they are coilwhine central

Are they really good?

vegas are quite decent cards even if creator oriented (hbm2 memory) but they but games tru their paces nicely
