    No prob, really sorry about the situation though, I know it sucks. I’ve been looking into replacing my TVs with large PC displays with DisplayPort.

    I’m not sure if you can somehow work around the HDMI forum limitation with an active converter, but I think they’re intended to be used at the adapter side (convert HDMI output to DP).




  • how is it a sub par GPU given it targets a specific segment (looking at it’s price point, die area, memory & power envelope) with its configuration?

    You’re upset that they didn’t aim for a halo GPU and I can understand that, but how does this completely rule out a mid to high end offering from them?

    the 9000 series is reminiscent of nv10 versus vega10 GPUs like the 56, 64, even the Radeon 7; achieving equivalent performance for less power and hardware.

    for anyone getting caught up in this shallow bait rhetoric, one is a case of:

    “please stay entrenched in our shitty software ecosystem so we can continue to treat you as the product”

    and the other is a case of:

    “please donate to us to help us develop this free and open source software”

    the two experiences are similar but in no way equivalent.
