I remember for Destiny 1 there was a figure of roughly 1 billion thrown around. That figure included like 8 years of server costs and future development costs for expansions, which ended up also including Destiny 2. Probably a similar situation for other games nearing that total.

The best source I could find on this was IGN and they claim a $100 million budget for BG3.

The US has been selling weapons to Saudi Arabia for a long time and hasn't stopped even with the genocide in Yemen starting in 2014. There are 3 Presidents that are complicit in this, so he isn't really joining the genocide just ramping up US involvement.

I can't remember the source, but the number 1 issue in every swing state other than Michigan (which had Palestine as its #1) among democrat nonvoters and centrists who voted republican was grocery prices. Most of those states had inflation as their number 2 issue and Palestine as the third. Palestine alone wouldn't have been enough to swing any state other than Michigan.

I think its pretty clear that the primary reason Kamala lost because she didn't present a vision for the economy. She literally just said that the economy is fine. Inflation and grocery prices? Ignore those!

Inflation maybe shouldn't have been as big of an issue since it was below 3% and on its way down but it was still a concern for a large number of voters.

PCIe scaling isn't really significant. With a 4090 you lose 2% going to 3.0 instead of 4.0 at 1440p per techpowerup https://www.techpowerup.com/review/nvidia-geforce-rtx-4090-pci-express-scaling/28.html

He is using and instead of nvidia and linux instead of windows but his card is so much slower that the drop should be a lot less

From some other benches people have posted, ultra settings at 1440p he should be averaging 180 fps then even if he is using 3.0 x4 due to lane splitting from ssds which is roughly equivalent to pcie 1.1 x16 then it's probably still not the main culprit

If you have a high end cpu its more price effective than other low end GPUs. The problem is needing a high end cpu kinda kills the budget argument.

Not terrible for their second attempt, but still not recommendable

Have you tried using automotive rated SD cards? They're intended to last in dashcams with tons of daily writes so they might hold up better if you were using normal SD cards.

We should have the MSRP on the 28th, true pricing probably won't be formally revealed until closer to launch date.

Leaked pricing has 9070xt starting at $750 and 9070 starting at $650 which is underwhelming if the 5070 and 5070ti are available for near MSRP by then.

SN850X 4TB is $275 on partpicker so it looks like prices have almost halved. Although I do agree that price/tb hasn't been decreasing last enough

Phantom Spirit from Thermalright performs a bit better and costs roughly the same as the peerless assassin

Given the climate impact of farming meat its probably for the best that they can't be farmed as easily. And yeah, I'd expect most species on Earth reached a peak before I was born and won't recover for at least decades after I'm dead, if ever.

I've seen bison burgers on the menu at a few local restaurants
