It's the OS that limits the tablets. Especially android. pretty sucks in a tablet.

There’s a lot to unpack in this latest round of leaks, but perhaps the most exciting piece of gossip comes from Greymon55, a known source for leaks on all things tech on Twitter. Greymon55 shared a cryptic tweet, implying that GPU prices will “drop dramatically” starting next month. While the leaker doesn’t specify what might be the cause of this huge drop, it certainly brings a much-needed glimmer of hope at a time when graphics cards are still outrageously priced.

Compared to Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 3090, Greymon55 said that RDNA3 cards will offer around 2.5 times the performance, while Ada Lovelace GPUs are estimated at 2-2.5 times. This makes it sound like both manufacturers will provide about the same boost compared to current-gen cards, but 3DCenter went a few steps further to gauge the difference between the two. When compared in 4K performance, Nvidia Ada Lovelace GPUs continue to show a 2-2.5 times increase, while AMD RDNA3 caps out at 2.3 times the performance of the RTX 3090. Of course, keep in mind that all of this is based on rumors, and we won’t know the actual numbers for a while yet. We’ve already seen similar reports about Ada Lovelace GPUs around the end of 2021.

Chinese customs authorities seized 5,840 XFX graphics cards on Friday. The GPUs were moving through Huanggang Port, in Shenzen, the transit point for people, vehicles, and goods leaving and returning to Hong Kong (Lok Ma Chau). Customs inspectors noticed that a consignment of graphics cards had several mislabeled boxes. Further investigation revealed that the total value of the graphics cards in transit was $3 million more than declared by XFX's paperwork.

Considering this story as written by the Chinese customs authority on its Weibo account, one might presume it was a simple but unsuccessful attempt by XFX to reduce the customs duty it would have had to pay to send its goods from the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (low taxation) to mainland China. However, this might not be an open-and-shut case.

Chinese tech news site MyDrivers shares an interesting supplementary rumor, which might cast a new light on the import duty dodging story. The publication claims that XFX has a history of supplying consumer graphics cards direct to crypto miners, and sometimes these are taken back by XFX and sold on as new products.

If XFX is still involved in passing new GPUs to miners and then repackaging and reselling them later, this could be why some of the shipment boxes weren't labeled correctly and undervalued. The problem, of course, is whether XFX sells the used cards to informed and willing customers or the company subsequently sells them as new.

The source also noticed that, in the wake of the Chinese customs seizure, the XFX China website seemed to be closed, as did XFX's Tmall online flagship store. Perhaps the customs investigators wanted to stop sales as they worked along the distribution chain to check for further irregularities.

3080 trinity going for 4k is around rm500 above launch msrp, and this one has 12GB instead of 10GB. Seems to me like supply is normalising sooner than expected. Probably got a heads up from Nvidia too on RTX 4000 launch?

One of the most popular graphics cards on the market, the Nvidia RTX 3080, has seen one of its biggest official price cuts since the GPU shortage began.

Providing further proof that the video card industry is starting to normalize again in regard to costs, retailers in Australia have applied an enormous 35% price cut to Nvidia’s powerful board.

Yes, there was rumours from retailers after this need to bundle with pc build.

No it is not going to be scarce, Nvidia is releasing 30 series alongside 40 series, and Intel is flooding the market with supply, consumers are desperate but not stupid.

anyone connect their nvidia card to HDR TV? anything need to adjust setting before use ka? my tv is lg c9, just now tried some game like forza horizon 5 on TV really awesome, the clarity is much better, but i think 3070ti cannot run the game at 4k native with RT high lol.. I am on windows 11, seems like the flick of the hdr on, makes everything got HDR, and ingame HDR toggle not relevant anymore becos if toggle that like no diff..

at my viewing distance, actually 1080p also damn good, just that when turn to native 4k, it gets sharper abit la overall.  and another game is this COD vanguard, because now got free trial, i tried install and play, but why feel like the game texture is very blur, everything blurry one.. dunno is the game itself or wat.. the character model and world model very potato.. already tune all to high..

Normal fans won’t bring down the metals of casing.
But this AIO does.

Anyway just for testing purposes only , cause this is ugly and noisy

Yes, still profitable. I only mine on 3 cards. It still covers 3-4 times of electric cost (before was 10 times). It takes at least 16 months for payback (before was only 3-6 months). Mining now is to accomodate a scenario where eth merge will delay forever or that another pow coin will take eth's place.

miner will not buy new GPU now?  unfortunately that's not really the case, the 100% LHR unlock are making entry level cards like 3060Ti flying off the shelves, as 2 of them is equivalent to a 3090 in terms mining power, as waaay a lot cheaper and power efficient too

existing miners will expand their current rigs, as it's a good time now: GPU price drops, LHR unlocks, a lot of western miners exiting due to high electricity cost (thanks to Putin) causing decrease in difficulty & etc

those selling the GPUs will be getting rid of the old gen GPUs like GTX10x0 or RTX20x0 that's no longer efficient compared to the RTX30x0s

a drop in crypto price doesn't really have much impact on those miners offloading their GPU rigs, as most already been there done that in the past during the crypto winter, just hodl it out until the spring came
unless the crypto market really crashed until it's really unprofitable, then maybe we'll see some offloading their cards to recover back some capital

Reminds me the time when the RM5.2k 2080 Ti got price slash to RM2.5k...
because the 3070 is going to sell for RM2.4k

Right now the 3080 Ti dropped from RM7.4k (wtf) to RM6.4k and now RM4k ish...

3000 series will be like 2000 series in end of the day
For those need upgrade from GTX to RTX, still can consider 3060 ti, 3070 ti and 3080 Ti, just ignore the Rtx 3090.

Crash crash crash!

Beware! Several Used NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 Graphics Cards With Defective Memory Modules Being Sold After Being Abused In Crypto Mining

The user noticed that all labels from the screws had been removed which means that it was taken apart at some point. This should be expected as NVIDIA's initial RTX 30 series graphics card had major heating issues and thermal pads had to be replaced manually by users to achieve better memory temperatures on the GDDR6X modules. Since these cards have been used in crypto mining operations, they could have undergone multiple pad replacements during their mining lifetime.

But that isn't the major problem, the user also discovered that in GPU-z, the GeForce RTX 3080 graphics card which is supposed to have 10 GB of memory, only showed up with 8 GB of VRAM. The RTX 3080 launched in two flavors, a 10 GB model with a 320-bit bus and a 12 GB model with a 384-bit bus. There was no in-production variant that featured 8 GB VRAM across a 256-bit bus and the reason why this card featured lower memory was discovered to be the defective memory modules.

Considering just how bad these graphics cards have been abused in mining operations, it looks like at some point, two of the 10 GDDR6X memory modules gave away and ended up functioning at all. This resulted in the card failing to post. But there's already a bypass that allows users to continue using their graphics cards even if a few memory modules have died. This is achieved through the memory shielding method which is very popular in crypto mining and miners can continue using the cards despite some modules having died out.

WTB 3090 RM2500

Hopefully Rtx 3090 selling below 2k 🫢🫢🫢🫢
Rtx 3080 ti just Rm1k only

I think the used markets all Gg

In China, a forefront of miners vs gamers GPU wars, is now reportedly affected by a massive price drop of current-gen GPUs. Retailers are lowering prices while miners are now selling their cards in masses, creating a very competitive GPU market in a process. This has been reported by a member of Baidu forums who put together the latest prices for each card.

In last week alone, the flagship RTX 3090 Ti model has been sold for 9499 RMB (1415 USD), which is 38% under MSRP (14999 RMB). A bit lower, but still significant reduction applies also to RTX 3090, which can now be found for as little as 8498 RMB (1266 USD), almost 29% under MSRP.

The price change does not only impact NVIDIA GPUs, but also AMD. The Radeon RX 6900 XT can now be found for as ‘little’ as 4999 RMB (744 USD), a 37.5% reduction from the introductory price of 7999 RMB.
Based on the chart, which shows the lowest retailer prices for each Radeon and GeForce SKU, not a single card is sold at MSRP anymore. On average, pricing for new models Radeon RX 6000 is 20% lower than MSRP, for NVIDIA that’s 19%.
