If you have working hardware, stretch it.

The more people participate in these markets, the more corporate gets positive feedback.

I get that their core business shifted to data center but how much AI slop does the world need it lol

We already mined all the crypto 🐸

Still rocking with a 970. I don’t play enough games that it would matter, and medium/high settings still run 1080p/60fps most of the time since only predatory AAA games use that high of graphics.

Also me with a 1070. I have to take of the door of my computer if I want to play games and not lag (that much) because it can easily get up to ~90C with it on. ;-;

Are your case fans broken? That really shouldn't happen unless your dust filter is full or not enough air is being moved by youe case fans

I think it's just a cruddy case (dell t3610). I don't think it was meant to have a 1070 in it because I had to cut a hole in the door for the cables.
