A competant driver team.
The spun off company from chinas nvidia branch “Moore Threads” has a gpu out that you can buy, but drivers are extremely terrible on it.
Intel is an example of a major corporation who jumped into the dgpu game a few years ago, and they ran into several driver problems and still have many to this day.
The hardest part of gpu design nowadays isn’t the hardware part, but the software side
Its just a matter of getting a invite code from someone whose already in the door. There is basically lots of people who generate it for others. Id do it if I was at home.
The whole point of the conversation is that the other platforms arent doing any work for the consumer.
To this day, epic doesnt even launch on linux officially, and requires a 3rd party launcher to even play its games. Epics first party games are on the list of games that dont work on linux.
There’s clearly one company who puts more effort onto the consumer front than the other. Epic doesnt even need to make a custom OS like valve does, it just needs to get their own launcher working, and their own games working, which they dont and refuse to.
To say that Epic is doing better for the consumer is disingenuous (however it does better for the developer though)
Its ultimately based on the sites you frequent at work vs home. The sites i read stuff at work tend to be less in your face with ads,.so you know its there but theyre less distracting.
it has some of the speed, but it’s not quite the same. direct storage is something the Xbox would have access to, but xbox is not directly hardware accelerated in the same way the PS5 is. Think similar to FSR VS DLSS. one utilizes special hardware in order to achieve its result.
But its 2023, pc gamers get free games every week on epic without having to pay for an online subscription, and thats solely just epic.
Theres actually a single one on the PS5, it essentially has a chip to hardware accelerate storage to ram loading speeds that PC speeds cant fully tap into yet.
Playstation devs are just badly leveraging the sole advantage it has.
The Xbox is virtualy a pc.
The lower point of Fahrenheight is near the freezing point of brine (salt water) which freezes at -6 F (-21 C).
It was designed around what the coldest day at the time of its invention could get and the 100F was marked around how hot the hottest day of the year at the timr would get. Hence its choice to scale 0-100 to local weather vs celcius’ choice to use kelvin and offset it to standardize it to pure water.
computer has never broken using a 3rd party start bar, and ive been using it since the start of windows 10. historically, the only time something actually breaks in updates is if it requires the user to overwrite something in the windows folder (e.g complete theming changes). the start bar is not one of them.
I personally use openshell because its free, some people may prefer start10 or startisback. or go to more non vanilla options like Pokki
i mean users are free to use 3rd party start bars to have a windows 7 style start bar. The thing I always find odd is that if you opt for the 3rd party option, your experience with windows is mostly consistent.
One of the biggest features Windows gives users is the ability to modify stuff and people choose not to use it. It’s like anyone who outright chooses to use IE/Spartan/Edge and complain about it instead of just switching to a 3rd party option.
The only thing i find off about the idea is essentially the project is effectively using a different backlight (using a different backlight isnt a completely new idea, its for instance what powers ibuypowers project snowblind pc cases(lcd sidepanel) as it replaces the backlight with internal pc conponents that shine bright white.
If you wanted to fix the problem, would it not just make more sense to put time and effort designing a better backlight for lcds for this use case rather than to rely on a top shot ambient light to do it?
i mean is it hard to just name Jensen, espeically since hes now in the club of CEO of trillion dollar company house which the list is very very short.
The different Garuda varients sans the gaming version are different desktop environments. Garuda just happens to support a lot. The gaming version of dragonized (which is KDE) is just dragonized with preinstalled gaming apps, probably the ones featured on their garuda gamer app
How I see it, its more that if you use multi CCD cpus, you have to manage the CPU manually as some games prefer cache, some games prefer clockspeed, and the OS picks the wrong one at times (usually the clock speed) as the OS assumes the higher clock speed = faster. As the thread director works correctly with Intel chips for the most part (where the e cores have a lower clock) so the e cores are often not selected for performance.
The solution AMD will have to transition to is to exchange the other CCD for the core count focused design (e.g Zen 4 vs Zen 4c) which would be clocked lower to receive similar benefits from the current itteration of thread director.
There was a leak of bethesdas release schedule during the court hearings, which if you offset the dates due to covid, (starfield was originally taped for 2021) by 2 years, TES6 should be 2026 as the original target was 2024. That would put it as a late Xbox Series life release.
The shield is one of the best android boxes on the market, as one of its major features is upscaling videos using its notibly faster gpu compared to standard android boxes. With support for a wide amount of surround sound options, it is still virtually the best android streaming box for videos and games.
The shield tv was such a dominant amdroid box that nvidia fundamentally didnt change its soc simce 2015, outside of the die shrink from 20nm to 16nm that allowed for the upscale feature in the 2019 model and the better battery life in newer switches.
Some people enjoy the security camera genre of games. Its just very niche though, as its sorta like a spinoff of tower defense.
I havent used any myself but from what im aware of,
ChimeraOS and HoloISO would be the cloest to a console like experience
Nobara and Garuda is a step away from that and focuses more on being a gaming pc rather than a full console experience.
of course, its just that its a huge task to undertake. People still give AMD shit for their drivers and they’ve been doing it for over a decade. It’s a huge problem for any company to build a competent driver team, especially for graphics, be it on PC or on mobile (e.g Qualcomm has a negative stigma for not supporting its devices long). The when for it is not in any short time window and would be a task that would take several years realistically. One way to fast track it would be approaching in an open source way (e.g AMD/Intel linux GPU drivers) but at a corporate level, drivers for those kinds of gpus usually cost way more to produce (part of the reason why workstation and server gpus are magnitudes more expensive than their consumer counterpart)
