    BIG NEWS

    I just received an email from Nvidia apologizing for the previous email & they've now walked everything back.

    This thing has been a roller coaster ride over the past few days. I'd like to thank everyone who supported us, obviously a huge thank you to @linusgsebastian

    And there are many more of you who deserve a big thank you as well, so thank you, we really appreciate all for you. As for our video, it's still coming and you can expect that tomorrow.

    [JayzTwoCents] NVIDIA... You've officially gone TOO far this time...

    Which reviews besides Rtings have a policy of not accepting 'help' in any form (review samples, invitations to release parties...) from companies whose products they review?

    Posted: 12 Dec 2020 01:54 PM PST

    Reviewers not 'reviews'.

    This is from their site:

    We Buy Our Own Products

    Unlike most websites, we do not get our review units directly from the manufacturers. Instead, we buy everything ourselves, like a normal customer. (...)

    How do we make money and how can you support us?

    We don't have ads on our website, because we want to stay unbiased (for example, some other review websites have ads from Samsung).

    Are there any other reviewers who work this way?

    By the way, here's a link to an audio reviewer's post who owned up to his own biases that came from receiving review samples:

    When I first started doing reviews, I was very happy when I received my first review unit, because I took it as a sign of recognition and the idea that I had gone 'legit'. Many people around me congratulated me as well for the same reason. Now that I have done more reviews, I have come to feel that the exact opposite is true.

    Ordinary consumers do not benefit from the review unit model and they should not congratulate reviewers for having established the relationships necessary to secure them. For my part, I have decided to stop requesting new review units and to stop accepting them.

    Is the ARM architecture the future ?

    Posted: 13 Dec 2020 02:03 AM PST

    A while back I made a poll here asking whether Apple would outperform the current manufacturers of x86 CPUs (that was before Apple announced their move to ARM) and after seeing some benchmarks from those mobile CPUs, it turns out they are pretty good considering it's first gen and mobile, and also Apple did say they would transition the entire Mac lineup in ARM CPUs, which means desktop CPUs, and especially those beefy server CPUs for the Mac Pro. So what's the deal with this ? Why did Apple decide to do this, there must be a reason. Also NVIDIA allegedly bought ARM ? Why would they do that ? I heard about a samsung and surface laptop with ARM CPUs that have high prices, and that whole Windows ARM version that sucked a bit. It seems microsoft is trying to lay the groundwork for Intel and AMD. Is all of this happening because ARM arch. is just much better at everything from power management to productivity and even gaming? Does intel or amd also have plans to move to ARM eventually? Intel has been struggling with process nodes for 4+ years now, they might have considered it. Does this have to do with uniformity? All electronic devices using the exact same architecture, and therefore developers write code and optimize for one thing only.
    So what do you think about this whole ARM thing ?

    Is it possible for nvidia to release a card with only tensor cores for cheap so that people can use DLSS?

    Posted: 12 Dec 2020 07:48 AM PST

    I'm just really curious as to whether this would be possible.

    Cyberpunk runs very horribly on my 1050ti, its only playable for me because of fidelityFX and I started thinking if it would be possible for them to release a card which only has tensor cores on it so that DLSS can be used for us ultra budget players.
