  • Everything does. The 1060 is ok as long as you do not play any games from the last 3 years.

    Given your specs, I assume the power supply is in the 650 to 750 range, that won’t handle the new hardware releases.

    For you next system, I would suggest paying extra money for an extra nice case and a larger power supply than what you could use. That way with an expensive case and expensive power supply, in 5 years you’ll only need to replace motherboard and processor, you will not have to take apart the whole system or build a whole new one. You simply disconnect all cables to.motherboard, unscrew it, take it, put in new board, CPU, RAM, connect all cables to board, you did a new platform upgrade.

    I bought a 1000W power supply, I might max out at drawing 600W. It wasn’t a waste of money. My system is 100% stable, PS is not working much with that load, it will still work very well when I do a platform upgrade in 3 years or so so no cable management since I will use the same case and power.





  • Until someone gives legal notice to IBM lawyers forcing Red Hat source code to be released pulicly, all of this debating over it means jack nothing.

    If nobody takes IBM to court, the matter is settled and all developers must accept Red Hat’s choices.

    If they dismiss the online talk, ignore all criticisms, and nobody pays for a lawsuit, the case is done and finished.

    I’m not trying skip over your points, as I said from my first first, everybody can talk all they want, who has the power of persuasion or legal force to change IBM’s decision?

    I may be wrong, but I believe only the Linux Foundation is a position to call IBM CTO, President, whoever, and say “We heard about the changes to with holding Red Hat’s source code, you will not be doing that, it shall remain public. If you want to discuss this further, please send your most expensive lawyers to our offices and we will explain in detail why you won’t be doing that.”




  • That’s exactly what’s already happened. Rocky and Alma are already no longer an option for a free version of Red Hat since Red Hat code is not allowed to be shared, it can only be viewed. Read their own words from Alma and Rocky, what they themself said about oing forward.

    Red Hat can also change the license agreement further to include anyone proven to have published source code of Red Hat branded material agrees to pay a fee to Red Hat of no less than $10 million, or whatever price they want to put on it.

    Everyone can scream about Red Hat, all they have to have to do is change some wording in agreement that includes fees(fines) for multi millions of dollars, BOOM! Red Hat becomes a proprietary system built on open source software.

    SUSE says they will fork RHEL, but Alma and Rocky are over in terms of being a clone. People have asked for years why there is no free 1 to 1 clone of SLES and SLED. IBM is free to choose to turn all of RHEL in a proprietary development and lock it down, unless you can get a court order that says Red Hate’s code must be made public, but I don’t dare test IBM lawyers over any code that is not released under AGPLv3, only then I would.





  • Everyone is going to have to accept that RHEL is over and done. Since paying customers are not allow to release the code publicly, overtime it could turn into its own ooerating system that happens to use the Linux kernel, similar to Android.

    Forget about Red Hat, they’re gone, they’re not an option for any small company. Individuals should never have been using Red Hat, but companies are going to have to find something else like Debian/Devuan, FreeBSD, something with a stable branch that gets 3 to 4 years of updates.



  • The 4090 is the first solid 4K everything video card, but the 4K standard is coming, including video cards that start at 16GB and go up from there. 4K movies. More game engines will develop textures in 4K. You not being interested is not the same as the market shifting that way. 4K OLED is not the expensive premium they used to be for such a gorgous picture.

    If somone wants high framerate, 1440 will always be there. I believe all future graphics cards technologies will be developed with the intention of targeting the hardware demands of 4K 120fps. Cards for 1440p 165hz are already available.

    Future consoles will do 4K, people who only watch TV or stream to TV, all 4K, only PC muiltiplayer will care about high framerates but not for console, so 1440 will slways be available for lower hardware systems, similiar to 1080p is currently.

    I plan to buy maybe the 2nd highest GPU in 2 years and then the year after buy a 4K screen, possibly OLED, as those prices continue dropping year after year. I never play multiplayer so I will be doing well with 4K 120fps.



  • The specs are very good, there’s nothing to change on it. But I garauntee that 7600 will barely be crawling in 3 years, unless you play 8 year old games. Test to see if GPU is bottlenecking rhe 12700.

    The next generation will have GDDR7, textures get bigger every year, and I do buy games every year, but there’s a reason 16GB VRAM is not ridiculous.

    Between higher resolution like when 4K is the norm in the years ahead, working towards 8K and games demanding higher performance from GPU, in 6 years your 7600 might be a $10 add-on card.
