"why use a $4 fan in the cooler when we could use a $2 fan

2017-08-07 21:48:51 UTC  

"silkscreen on the pcb? who even looks at those, leave it off"

2017-08-07 21:49:24 UTC  

"let's make this slave child drill out the board instead of the expensive robot" is also a possibility

2017-08-07 21:50:57 UTC  

the fact that they still cost a few hundred tells me they're using legit amd/intel/nvidia gpus on the chinese video cards since that one part is nearly the entire cost of the card

2017-08-07 21:50:58 UTC  

They legit bought some old CPU architecture (most likely for next to nothing) and upgraded it. It was dirt cheap to manufacture (not paying for the intel inside sticker), so they can easily get a powerful supercomputer. Just increase the number of CPUs in the machine until you get acceptable performance.

also yeah china does actually design stuff too

2017-08-07 21:51:32 UTC  

just they aren't sitting there designing their own gpus then labeling them as nvidia/amd

2017-08-07 21:51:40 UTC  

there's no reason for them to so they will not

2017-08-07 21:52:30 UTC  

malware on the hardware? no point spending so much on engineering for something that simple

2017-08-07 21:52:53 UTC  

hardwarewise you can do that with an off the shelf part that costs a few cents

2017-08-07 21:53:17 UTC  

so software engineering only instead of that _and_ designing new expensive part

2017-08-07 21:53:52 UTC  

just grab yourself a bootleg microcontroller out of shenzhen and you have everything you need

2017-08-07 22:35:55 UTC  

Aren't Zotac and Colorful chink GPU vendors? They're probably just Colorful factory rejects

2017-08-07 22:36:23 UTC  

and colorful are already trash tier right?

2017-08-07 22:36:35 UTC  

Zotac are okay, no idea about them

2017-08-07 22:36:43 UTC  

They rarely pop up

2017-08-07 22:36:58 UTC  

yeah zotac are legit but colorful always seem off from my impressions, not that i have many

2017-08-07 22:37:09 UTC  

Sapphire are chink too

2017-08-07 22:37:21 UTC  

They look like Sapphire design to me

2017-08-07 22:37:32 UTC  

Maybe just Sapphire rejects

2017-08-07 22:38:10 UTC  

The 580 looks like a black spray painted Sapphire cooler

2017-08-07 22:39:27 UTC  

the sapphire rx580 was actually pretty nice looking iirc, not much gamer aesthetic

2017-08-07 22:39:38 UTC  

unless they had different versions

2017-08-07 22:39:52 UTC  

Yeah I've always bought their cards

2017-08-07 22:40:05 UTC  

Never had an issue

2017-08-07 22:40:58 UTC  

comfy you know when you put "historical low" on your hot deals, how you keeping track of that?

2017-08-07 22:47:27 UTC  

They sometimes bother to put it in the listing

2017-08-07 22:48:05 UTC  

But I've noticed they'll pretend some other deals didn't exist to make the current one look better

Is this a chink face mask?

2017-08-07 22:48:44 UTC  

smash that mf'in buy now button

2017-08-07 22:49:00 UTC  

yeah they wear those on the underground

2017-08-07 22:49:14 UTC  

Real scalped skin face

2017-08-07 22:49:15 UTC  

japans use those standard surgical masks

2017-08-07 22:49:16 UTC  

china uses that

2017-08-07 22:49:39 UTC  

"funny male man"
as opposed to a funny female man

2017-08-07 22:49:43 UTC
