Let's not jump to conclusions when it's really more a matter of getting bored of waiting for someone to release a working product.

Uh, hi. Audio isn't supposed to cut out on expensive high end electronic equipment. There is no 99% of the time. It either works or it doesn't. If it happens in the middle of the movie a huge cleaveland steamer just got laid on your chest...

Hence the problem.

The fact that any advertised feature in $2,000 video cards doesn't work and can BE a "low priority" to begin with says it all. There shouldn't be any priorities. The features you advertise either work or they don't.

I think that's what irritates me about Nvidia. If something isn't a meat and potatoes feature, it's fine for it to be broken indefinitely. The bottom line is that they sold video cards that supposedly support HDMI 2.1, and it basically doesn't work.

Another new Nvidia driver released today and HDMI 2.1 Dolby Atmos dropout still hasn't been fixed. Auto HDR is still broken. They sell $2,000 video cards that don't work. No one talks about it because they want to keep getting free review...

If I were buying a CPU today I'd get a 12900k without even thinking about it.

I find it odd and amusing that you say it's "almost as responsive" as a fast TN panel. Uh, OLED should have LESS input lag than any TN panel. What the fuck is going on? OLED seems to be absurdly underperforming given what it's supposedly capable...

It's absolutely ridiculous that there's basically zero consumer choice when it comes to displays. Cell phones ruined everything. No one cares about computer displays anymore. We should be at the point where you can literally select the exact...

I'm pretty convinced that virtually no one on the planet actually tries to use any of these niche/advanced features with each other, because it seems like whenever you try to use them, nothing works, and yet you don't see anyone on the internet...

It's just a clickbait 30 minute video where he even admits it's nothing new and is basically a non story at the end. It's scummy.

You let other people be guinea pigs and buy hardware combinations confirmed to be working by other people on the internet. It's not hard. That's some of the best advice anyone would ever get with building pcs on the internet, yet none of these...

Clickbait crap. There's nothing to be concerned about, and if you just buy good PSUs that are compatible with whatever GPU you buy, you're not going to have any problems. I'm getting really bored of these scumbag patreon beggars.

Nah there's nothing inherently good or bad about breaking laws. Some laws are immoral.

Debatable. If it actually had value more people would be willing to pay for it.

I still think people are being too optimistic about the rate of adoption. We have decades of history to look back on this stuff. It took forever for companies to start using basically any new technology whether it was bump mapping, pixel shaders...

If you're being wildly optimistic, DirectStorage in games might be commonplace in 5 years. Movement on stuff like that is glacial. Almost everyone is just using an engine, almost everything that's going to be released within the next few years is...

Sadly it's going to be like most AMD cpus. "OMG IT'S SO GREAT IT'S THE BEST EVER" and then Intel has a faster part out within 6 months.

What are you talking about? Tons of people would pay out. All I see is excuse making when it's obvious that they just drip feed incremental improvements to sell 4 times as many products.

The real question is why each one of these versions is such a tiny incremental jump. They're transparently milking it. They knew HDMI 2.1 wasn't good enough from day one.
