    The most anticipated graphics card launch in many a year is upon us, and of course the story has become pricing and availability yet again (unless you live in one of the 19 States that Microcenter occupies).  Also more 12VHPWR monitoring options, Firefox terms of use change for worse probably, and some Half Life 3 rumors.

    Josh proves that he's the host with the most - and guides us through a brisk show that ends just before the really good stuff. Probably. Also, his cat tried to host.  We've got the "best" NVME, the most expensive 5090, melty parts, EVGA talk and there is no Subnautica 2 playtest - STOP CLICKING on things!

    Podcast #807 - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Review, AMD Radeon RX 9070 Delay, Kingpin + Much MORE!

    The RTX 5090 is almost here, and we discuss the performance and value proposition that some have called the RTX 4090 Ti that never was. We also talk about the delayed release of AMD's latest Radeon GPUs, and much more.    See the timestamps for all the topical goodness.

    JAN 18

    Podcast #806 - NVIDIA Blackwell uArch, RTX 5090 Power Draw, The End of 8GB GPUs, AI for raster, ASUS BTF power

    NVIDIA's latest GPUs are almost here, but we can already tell you that 12GB is the new 8GB. Arc is the true way! (Ok, maybe not, but Josh did buy one.) And, of course, 3dfx had it all figured out with their external power supply for the Voodoo 6000. (note the thumbnail) Microsoft is bringing more AI to raster pipeline, VLC is bringing more AI to just videos, the RTX 50 series will be incredibly powerful and difficult to power, but ASUS might have "The Way".  All that and more in this show.  00:00 Intro01:43 Food with Josh03:38 NVIDIA reveals Blackwell architectural details07:08 The 800 FPS Valorant flex09:58 Bigger chips draw more power (on the same node)13:44 Forget 12VHPWR, there’s GC-HPWR19:05 PSA: 8GB GPUs are not good enough anymore23:53 Neural rendering coming to DirectX API27:58 VLC is adding AI (for subtitles)30:14 Microsoft may hit enterprise where it hurts to get Win11 adoption32:24 (in)Security Corner42:03 Gaming Quick Hits48:57 Picks of the Week1:03:48 Outro1:04:48 Mildew ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
