Don’t forget power consumption and noise too. 4070 is a lot more efficient than a 3090. The 90 cards are basically just willy waving for most people, unless you’re looking for silly frame rates at 4K and are willing to pay a hefty premium for it, in which case fill your boots :)
I crumbled and upgraded my monitor

25% off currently and I got another 10% off through work. It’s replacing a similar but non-OLED Asus ROG monitor.
Arrives today...
I'm not sure how funny it is, but this was so sweet.
I work in support, but a few of my jobs have also involved some toolset coding or bug fixing. I was looking at a major issue for a customer and writing a fix for the problem. They'd changed something upstream which "shouldn't have any impact"...
Despite what I said earlier, I played through it again in the mode which leaves you with all the upgrades you had when finished the last game.
So much more fun. Skipped all the dialogue, wondered around like a tank, still some situations where you'd get pasted if you were stupid.
Honestly all...
I keep reading the title of this thread as “Up the pink shitbox”, which changes the context a bit.
Not sure if disappointed or relieved that it’s about a car.
It depends on the pump, you’d need to check the specific AIO. That said, you can pick up manually controlled 12v PWM signal generators for less than a tenner on eBay, or Noctua do one for about £20 if you want a trusted brand.
Yep, something along those lines should do the job just fine.
You can now get air coolers which can handle 300W loads too, but they’ll be on their limit. A decent water cooling loop should handle that load with headroom to spare.
Really it depends what your future plans are, if you think you...
Yes, there should be plenty of options, the main potential difficulty is in mounting the cooler to what you want to cool and getting good thermal contact.
Is it something which could be immersed in water? Or something non-conducive like mineral oil?
Holy mother of god……
We got very close to having a back door which could arbitrarily inject malicious code into ssh requests as part of the default install of some major Linux distros...
That’s really interesting, thanks for the feedback. I was hoping for way more plug and play than that, a bit of tweaking is fine but not tons of messing around.
Maybe that’s a benefit of Fanatec, is their compatibility a bit more mature?
I imagine they've run into some fairly mahoosive cashflow problems because their entire shipping chain collapsed. Will have been chargebacks a-plenty from people who paid on credit cards for a start.
Then you've got the reputational damage which will have impacted new orders too. All forseeable...
Yeah that’s a massive vote of no confidence in him from the bank right there.
“We’ll give you another few months to get your s**t together, but only if you fire this useless berk.”
Picked up a sliding pedal mount for £40 in a sale recently, it's made such a difference to have easy fine adjustment on the pedal position.
Definitely ready for a wheel upgrade now. It's still so, so much better than a controller but I've got to the point where I want some detailed feedback...
