I just picked up a used RX 6800 XT after doing some research and comparing prices.

The fact that a gpu this old can outperform or match most newer cards at a fraction of the price is insane, but I’m very happy with my purchase. Solid upgrade from my 1070 Ti


Not sure what you think PPI means or how it’s calculated, but it has nothing to do with being a tv or a monitor. It’s a relationship between the number of pixels and physical size.

A 34" 1440p monitor will have a lower PPI than a 4k TV at the same size


Pixel density is pixel density. Doesn’t matter if it’s a tv or a monitor.

Sure monitors typically have less input lag and there are reasons one might choose a monitor over a tv, but the reverse is also true. I chose a 55" tv for my sim racing setup that sits maybe a meter from my face and there’s no problem with that setup




$1,100 over 15 years. I’m not a gamer, and I’m well aware I don’t own these games, so I’m glad it’s low

Cool! Now maybe put yourself in someone else’s shoes. Someone who doesn’t want to pay an extra $500 for $30 worth of extra storage.

Or someone’s shoes who use their phone for a lot of recording, so maybe they need a terabyte, or more. And those phones don’t exist.

Or someone’s shoes who are offline for weeks at a time and want to load their phone up with movies or tv shows to watch.

Or someone’s who doesn’t use music streaming services so wants to keep all their music on their phone.

There are many cases in which sd cards are useful or even necessary, so try not to think your use case is universal. It comes across as ignorant



I just soft modded my old PS2 so I could boot game backups from a network share. So I’m playing Gran Turismo 3, NFS underground 2, Tony hawk’s Pro skater 4, NBA street vol. 2, and GTA: San Andreas. Basically everything and anything my teenage self loved at the time.


I miss using my old lg phones, I had the v30, v40, and v50 and they were basically perfect. Now when I shop for phones it’s like looking for the least bad option
