  • Concur.

    I went from a 2080 Super to the RX 9070 XT and it flies. Coupled with a 9950X3D, I still feel a little bit like the GPU might be the bottleneck, but it doesn’t matter. It plays everything I want at way more frames than I need (240 Hz monitor).

    E.g., Rocket League went from struggling to keep 240 fps at lowest settings, to 700+ at max settings. Pretty stark improvement.











  • I saw Speed Racer after someone recommended it here on Lemmy. They said it was the best movie ever.

    I thought it freaking sucked ass. Took me like five attempts to finish it. I got bored and watched something else 4 times before I could finish it.

    It was so weird. The plot was just much too basic. Old story, told a thousand times, predictable and boring af. Special effects were (intentionally) poor and too zoomed in and shaky.

    They made everything in focus, nothing was out of focus. I think this was a choice of the Wachowskis’, but it made for some weird-looking things sometimes.

    All the racing was too busy, with camera switches that were much too frequent. Gave me a headache. And I’m used to watching quick switching content. There was just too much color and nothing on focus and too quick. It was a bold choice but it backfired in my opinion.

    My two cents, I’m ready for the down votes. 😅
