It’s a long vid. I suggest prepping your fav drink before viewing.

It’s re Nvidia’s new gpu architecture for ai, NVlink switch, RAS diagnostics and other Nvidia announcements.

Nvidia knows it’s the star of the backbone of the current ai boom and seems to be going full steam. I’m hoping for more innovations on tools for ai and gaming in the future.

    Oh you mean because of the shit buggy drivers they had? NVIDIA has nearly always had the most compelling product at most upper price points. When ATIs product line was briefly straight up faster for a brief period (years lololol👌) and folks choose Nvidia because ATI drivers were a god awful buggy mess.

    But yeah everyone is just a little brainwashed leming 🙄.

      They still have, I replaced my 3070 with a 7900 xtx and the 7900 is constantly freezing with ring GPU errors and drivers completely effing up the system. I have already replaced it twice, and I am using workarounds to not hit bugs, but they happen every few days

          Powercolor, red devil.

          Under 6.7 I was able to find some a combination that was usable for a few days.

          With 6.8, timeouts would happen within 30 minutes.

          I fiddles with sched_job module option and the system seems stable now.

            Weird. Glad you found a stable solution but that sucks.

              It hasn’t crashed yet, but I won’t be able to test it for a couple weeks (vacation time \o/).

              For normal use, it looks like the crash is resolved or, at least, as stable as 6.7 was. Next test is to play Helldivers 2 with the Vulkan backend and see if it crashes or run.
