This is just speculation on my part, but I guess they are detected, but the firmware just doesn't use all of them. I think the chips are all a bit different, with different defects, parts removed, and stuff like that.

Happened in the past already, and was solved with a vBIOS update. It will probably be the same here, unless the parts were really lasered off or something.

I'm at the end of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. This game is all quantity over quality in my opinion. I also think, the devs never thought if the gazillion minigames or one-off quest mechanics are fun. Just add more and more, so you can brag about how much there is to do in your game. If players enjoy themselves, it's a nice coincidence, but never a goal. I just want this game to be over at this point. The last couple of hours just completely destroyed any remaining interest I had

NVIDIA raster performance -$50 is all AMD have done for years now and it cost them like 10% market share, which was already shit.

Unless NVIDIA just has zero stock for months and AMD is always available, I don't think that's gonna be any different.

I think we've never really left, and it's been going on for much longer. All the popular tech gets scalped. Switch, PS5, Phones GPUs, etc. If you can't launch with infinite products available, it's going to get scalped nowadays.

AMD have said, the 9070 series is going to be up to 4070 ti performance. Leaks have also shown the performance between 7800XT and 7900XTX, so you can trust these numbers of course.

As for the price, AMD can say what they want, but how they've handled this launch so far doesn't sound promising. A vendor, who has the cards already, speculated about the price, and it was horrible.

Things have changed since then, but until AMD has released concrete numbers, all these leaks are useless.

I also don't know what you mean with the artificial restriction of production of the cards. Because NVIDIA is mainly producing AI cards for servers and workstations? AMD will be doing the exact same thing, since that's where the majority of the money is.

I want what you're smoking.

I enjoyed the game far more than I thought I would, so I look forward to this.

Every one of those got confused about the title and thought it's the new one.

I've played three time through Remake. First when it launched on Normal and Hard difficulty, and then again, last December in anticipation for Rebirth.

While I didn't mind too much my first time, the game definitely has a lot of very slow sections. Like you mentioned, you are constantly forced to walk very slowly, wait for animations, etc. It really feels like Square tried to pad the game a lot.

I really liked the combat at first, but my on Hard difficulty it got terrible. I was always annoyed, that your other party members just stood around and never attacked. Rebirth fixed it a little bit, since they actually are doing stuff, just deal basically no damage and don't get ATB charge. A few fights are also just terribly designed in my opinion, and Rebirth just doubled down here.

About things not carrying over, I was also a bit disappointed at first, that you basically have to start from scratch in Rebirth, but it wasn't a big deal. The sequel has other, bigger problems, in my opinion, that drag it down.

The main reason I still like the game, are the characters. If not for them, the very first playthrough would have been enough.

I haven't finished the game yet, but I really wonder what the point of Remake's ending was, when this game doesn't do anything with it.

My Hot Take on the game: it's really mediocre, maybe even bad, and I don't know how it got so much praise, when it originally launched.

 

Anybody got recommendations for some good idle games?
