Picked up a new Nvidia 4080 Super video card. Fuck this thing is HUGE!, weighs close to 4 lbs and takes up 3 slots. I did have to order a new PSU though, my Corsair 750x was at the bare min of what it takes to run it. Don't need to fry anything. Ordered a Corsair 1000e, 2 year newer design and designed to power the 40 series cards. I upgraded from a Nvidia 2060. From gpu.userbenchmark.com's 76th fastest GPU to their 2nd. This thing is gonna run Leisure Suit Larry like nobodies business!!

Next to the 2060... which at the time I thought was kinda big.

I was looking at GPU/CPU upgrades today. The temptation is strong.

Leisure Suit Larry was a great game from about 1987.

Yeah I remember seeing it. I was talking about all the computer Greek

 

[tx_shooter]

Somebody breaking into crypto mining with that board?

 

[Silverback]

Nvidias new gpu's supposedly have built in software to hinder their crypto mining efficiency. So the crypto miners don't buy them all up.

Edit... I guess they have a built in low-hashrate to discourage mining.. but there is a workaround for it. LOL

Don't judge.


Actually I am playing Diablo 4, which now I cranked up all the settings at 4K and damn.. it looks nice. Probably don't need a 4080 Super to run it.. but it looks nice. Also, Sniper Ghost Contracts 2 looks pretty sick on it. But I don't play many games.

 

[balakay]

Helldivers 2 is a good buy. Especially now that they (hopefully) have most of the server issues fixed with todays update.

Is it strictly co-op bs?

Fuck the co-op crap.

Messing with the "GeForce Experience", its an app that allows in-game things like monitoring of GPU temps/performance/frame rates/etc. As well as screen capture and video capture.
