I wouldn't mind the power if the performance was a lot better but it feels like the 6090 is gonna get a node jump like Lovelace did and that is gonna have a big performance increase.

A half-node jump to N3, that is. The leap from Samsung's N8 to TSMC's N5 was much bigger.

Assuming Nvidia releases another ~600 mm² chip first like the 4090, that's a 17% transistor increase from the 5090 with either 35% less power consumption or 15% higher clocks (going by TSMC's estimates).

So it would be rather comparable to this generation's performance increase, barring some crazy IPC boost.

Well hopefully they will try harder than that or bring out new tech for the next generation of gpus. While we are approaching limitations of node shrinks, Nvidia could give us a bigger die but who knows.

Just noticed that Square Enix is pretty inconsistent in their usage of DRM...

• Final Fantasy XV: still Denuvo
• Final Fantasy VII Remake: no Denuvo
• Final Fantasy XVI: Denuvo
• Final Fantasy VII Rebirth: no Denuvo

There's probably other examples too, but the question is... why. They also don't really seem to care about their old titles at all, judging by the Denuvo presence - which doesn't really surprise me, sadly.

SE works in mysterious ways that many would consider to make very little sense
