Wow, those "transients" or power surges are scary. Whoever gets a 4090 better get a 1200W or higher power supply, just in case. And from a good brand.
But I love how they blame each other: "Don't use cheap parts on PSUs that can't keep up with our GPUs", "B*tch, don't make GPUs that ask for more than twice its average power consumption just because they feel like it".
Both are to blame here, but at least the PSU manufacturers have some excuse as this happens with cheap PSUs (or small ones) where compromises have had to be made to reach that price or form factor. What excuse does Nvidia or its AIBs have with its $1,000, three slot cards?
The A380 performing bad is disappointing, but not surprising, and we all know the cause for that: bad drivers. It doesn't matter how good your hardware is if your drivers are trash. And let's not forget that the reviews are made using an OC model using 90W instead of the stock 75.
Super Resolution 2.0 going open soruce is good. Hopefully this will help it gain more support faster, like what happened with the original 1.0 version.
And I hope those Zen4 with V-Cache CPUs launch alongside the regular ones. Otherwise, some early adopters of Zen4 may feel betrayed.
Please excuse my bad English.
