3070 also runs MUCH cooler than 1060 did. 1060 was working hard at 63C trying ( and failing ) to play 4K HDR while 3070 is playing it just fine at a comfortable 47C looks like i made the right choice with this particular upgrade. now i just need to move to Florida so i can switch to the real PC and give this one to my parents ( they already asked for it ).

looks like swapping GTX 1060 for RTX 3070 solved basically all my graphics related issues i was having the most amazing part is that despite having almost 3 times more VRAM available, RTX 3070 uses only half as much VRAM as GTX 1060 used. VRAM use on 1060 was about 2 GB out of 3 GB and on 3070 it's 1 GB out of 8 GB. it also now goes up and down with load whereas before it was basically just always maxed out. i used to get massive stuttering on YouTube 4K HDR videos and lately it even started going black on some video frames while scrolling X content with Videos embedded and all those issues have basically resolved themselves with the GPU upgrade. just as i suspected 1060 was just too old. the NVDEC version was too ancient and the VRAM was not enough. the only downside to this GPU swap is that overall the computer feels 100% as slow as before the upgrade. only difference is that videos render correctly without black frames or stuttering. but the PC overall is still slow as a snail. unbearably slow. good thing i have two new ones but i won't migrate to them until after moving to Florida ...

so far it was basically plug and play. i just had to find extra PCIE power connector because the new card needs two of them while the old one only used one but my PSU had the extra connector. booted into window straight at 4K resolution because both cards are Nvidia so they use the same driver. i'm updating the driver though just because a newer one is available. there wasn't any issue with the old one.

the new ( ok 4 year old refurbished ) GPU for my old PC is here - wish me luck LOL even though i have two new computers for some reason i keep using this old one as a main - that's the one the GPU is for i am going to shut down and if you never hear form me again it means the operation was not successful just kidding - you will hear from me but it might be from a different device - this PC has been on its last legs for a while which is why i am replacing a GPU with a refurbished older model rather than a new one because i don't plan to keep this PC for long anyway shutting down ...

i am not talking about politics or philosophy - but everything just trying to find basic information about what version of sound system a car has is impossible - everybody just makes random shit up and posts it as facts nobody even notices that AI does that because people have always done it before AI nobody stops for one second to ask themselves whether what is coming out of their mouth has relationship to reality - people just open their mouths spray everything with verbal vomit and they get upset when anybody suggests it should be different. for example i once complained on an audio forum that powersoft ( the most popular pro audio amplifier ) website takes several minutes to load a page, so with hundreds of amplifier models it takes hours to browse through their specs - i said this was unbecoming of a market leader to have such a poorly functioning website to which the response i got was "please kill me now" in other words the NPCs at audio forum thought it was unreasonable to expect a website to actually work. why ? because the average person is so worthless that their strategy is to ignore everything that is wrong with the world so that hopefully others will ignore everything that is wrong with them in return. the average person is a retard and feels comfortable when everything around him is equally retarded. whenever somebody intelligent begins to talk about fixing things NPCs get nervous. i saw this attitude over and over and over on every single forum on the internet. nobody wants anybody noticing things that are wrong - everybody wants to just accept things as they are and say it is fine. everything is fine.

never take any information at face value - assume it is random nonsense diarrhea / vomit regurgitated by NPC retards at best - deliberate misinformation / disinformation at worst ( quite likely ) the odds that something you read or hear is accurate and truthful are extremely low because very few people are both intelligent, knowledgeable and honest and those few are usually silenced if not murdered and even when we are allowed to speak nobody listens so you will likely never hear from us regardless

all a democrat like AOC needs to do to win in 2028 is promise to secure the border and deport violent criminals the rest of democrat positions are all more popular than republican positions

if you're interested in following her: https://x.com/RoamingKam she still has a body that is below my standards and will never reach my standards because her body genetics are total dogshit but the weight loss is impressive as i said and she's pretty so i followed as Layne Norton said ( which he stole from somebody else whom i don't know ) "knowledge without mileage is bullshit" too many people want to act like experts because they read some book but they have never lived the struggle let alone won any battles ...

if it's OK for women to tell men how to live then it's OK for men to tell women how to live women think men have no right to slut shame them but simultaneously believe it's OK to to shame men for dating women that they are attracted to rather than women that womankind deems it is men's duty to date any woman that believes she has the right to comment on what relationship a man is allowed to have should be bullied mercilessly and her employers contacted 20 times a day until she is forced to delete her account View quoted note →

i do not think he's joking - remember Tates ran a webcam business and Andrew constantly referred to simps spending money on young women as "retards"

quite simply anybody who focuses on the other party is an insider democrat insiders work for Jewish Globalists while republican insiders work for Israeli Jews any honest intellectual will not waste his time attacking anything other than Jewish System of Control itself, of which the two-party system and left-right paradigm is an integral piece View quoted note →

anybody who talks about "left wing radicals" and so on is with 100% probability a Zionist getting money from AIPAC they are all coached like monkeys with the same lines Charlie Kirk was one of them then when he tried to quit they killed him if you are a real intellectual who isn't on anybody's payroll or in Epstein files you do not need to play this Left-Right paradigm game of blaming the "DemonKKKrats" for every problem in a nation beholden to Israel and the Jews, who have equal 100% control of both parties ...

we need women: 1 - for validation 2 - to clean the pipes but you don't have to date them to accomplish either ! you can just flirt with women for validation without ever asking them out ... and you can fap to porn ...
