for anything besides playing videogames for the vast majority of people? Don't get me wrong, I think they're cool technology and like video games as much as the next guy, but $800-1000 for a fucking vidya toy? Not even including the rest of the fucking computer? No thanks. How the hell can anyone even justify that?
welp, massive parralelism. its useful in breaking encryption and ai for starters. also mining.
also graphics-related stuff, obviously
Adam Lee
Yes, GPUs are heavily used nowadays in 3D rendering for movies, architectural visualization, etc. In fact they benefit more from powerful GPUs than games do.
>Picrel is my PC, a 5950x/1650 Super combo. Take the GPU out and find out.

What's the point in having the CPU AIO radiator on the front intake instead of the top exhaust? Aren't you just blowing hot air back into the chassis?
Landon Richardson
it's a 280mm and that's the only place it fits in that case
Kevin Young
CUDA, Tensor, 3D rendering, NVENC (video encoding/decoding), CAD. Etc, etc. If anything that's their main purpose and they were used for it decades before they were used for games. We're just lucky we got to cut some slack.
Chase Watson
I see mounting options on the top. Swap them out, top exhaust with rad, front intake, back exhaust.
Landon Brooks
I read the manual for the case and the front is the only place that fits a 280. 240 and 360 will fit up top. I'd rather have it up top of course.
nice looking PC buddy. What's that card at the very bottom? Isn't it blocking a lot of the case I/O stuff?

>Aren't you just blowing hot air back into the chassis? meme you're blowing warm air instead of hot air air is better than no air, warm or cold, the goal is to transfer heat.
Cloth tape. Just used it to hide ugly sections/cables or bind cables. Like to get the sound card PCIe power cable in shape, I put copper wire into it and then wrapped it all with the tape or the PCIe power connectors for the GPU, one was dual 8pin and the other 6+2pin, I cut off the other connectors and terminated the wires and then used the tape to hide the cuts. Got several pairs of those Seasonic modular cables so no biggie.
