    I am almost purely MSI/Gigabyte/Corsair nowadays, when I have a choice. (I would be 100% Gigabyte if I could, but they don't make everything, and I swear 2/3 of my last PC's have been "emergency" purchases so I have to take what I can get on short notice, not what I TRULY want)

    Unshackled AI, you say?

    I was really hoping to see Domon and Rain, more than "a fight we've already seen before, re-mastered".

    I admire the thumbnail work of this one especially:

    The market for a "raw power, no fancy features" card certainly exists. "No RTX, no DLSS, no AI, just pure polygon-calculating-power".

    I'm very curious on how it works on non-human characters. "Hey, Mass Effect Super-Legendary Remake. Blue aliens---must be Na'vi, add the Na'vi filter!" Because that's probably the only "blue humanoid aliens" it's trained on...

    I used those figures in a different, slightly larger (and diecast I think?) General Lee, and it was much easier to get them in and out that way.

    My DDR4 is 2x16 and 2x8. They are not identical in specs but very close and have never had a single error running together. (DDR4 is pretty accommodating with mixing and matching, so long as it's close).
  9. David Hingtgen
    Seriously wondering if I should keep my 3060 as an "emergency backup" instead of selling it... (is it worth selling DDR4 in the current market? Got 48GB of it...)

    I'd be more for it if the PLAYERS could have some input control. If it's gonna "generate" the finer details of the facial geometry etc anyways, can I say "look more like X, and less like Y?". Just my luck the AI or its model would be "influenced" by someone I don't like and keep trying to use them as "inspiration for its generating control" or whatever buzzwords they're using to describe what sure sounds like typical AI "guessing at details". If the face isn't going to be exactly what the artist designed, then the control should be in the end user's hands, not the GPU's. Hope the base model has advanced a LOT since Obama was in office:

    I had a similar question---if it's basically AI "guessing" at details, is it effectively deepfaking the faces? Based on what? Will it be unique for each user/setup? If you take a screencap of yours, and someone else with identical settings takes a screencap of theirs---will they be identical? Will EXACTLY how a character's facial features appear be influenced by randomness/seeds etc?

    Toggles/options are fine, the problem is now you need registry hacks and/or entire 3rd-party programs just to restore basic options and functionality that used to be present. If I could simply "click a long list of options" that'd be fine and only take minutes. But instead it's a game of "touch and go" for "how many registry alterations and programs can co-exist before they start causing problems"?
  13. David Hingtgen
    Oh, you can get working group policy options on Win11 home. ::cough:: XP/7 era, "copying over" configs etc worked pretty nicely. But now, 10/11 are so horrendous by default, that even if you copied all of your OLD settings perfectly, 10/11 would still be terrible, because they're invented new ways to be terrible, that weren't even conceived of back when. "never used to have to change it, because nobody needed options, because the original way was a good way and a single click for the hundreds of times a day you might do it". But now they've made it "8th option down of a sub-menu of a sub-menu that is itself half-a-dozen-lines down, protected by an ad for co-pilot", or worse "not even there in the menu at all, they simply removed that common useful function everybody used constantly, entirely".
  14. David Hingtgen
    This! You don't realize how many little things are "essential" for daily usage until "something doesn't work like you're used to" and you curse whatever developer made "the stupid way" the default behavior of Win 10/11 and now you have to figure out how to change it yet again... Until it's "how I want it", it's just A computer and not MY computer.

    You don't realize just how much you did to get modern Windows "functional", until you have a fresh install. You can NEVER remember or write them all down. Got pretty close today, but it took ALL day. (I took the day off from work! Didn't plan to have a new PC at the time, but it worked out well). I should be ready to finally actually "use" my new PC this weekend and see what it can do...
