Yeah, 40 is just not for me. I rather go 1080p and hopefully get 75+ FPS. It’s really hard to go back from that to something as choppy as 40, even 60 feels kinda bad now.

And yes, I use local LLMs too and 8 GB vram is kinda painful and limiting, though the biggest hurdle is still rocm & python which are an absolute mess. I’d love to get even more than 16 GB but that’s usually for the high end segments and gets real pricey real quick.

Linux and me playing a lot of indie titles is also why I’d still avoid Intel, even if they had something in the upper midrange, but I still would’ve loved to see some competition in that area because then AMD would have to also deliver with their prices and that’d be good for me.
