Actually, my 2009 Mac Pro does that when I even wake it up from sleep. My lights will flicker and the cd drives will click and the hard drives spin up. I must say, the power supply in that thing is 950 watts, so it's pretty dang close to Linus'.

@@Erowens98 samsung have enough of fabs to produce millions of units without issue. If someone order them and pay for manufacturing. So nvidia can buy more today and less tomorrow without anyone needing to spend more to produce more for short limited time, samsung will just switch these fabs to something else according to their schedule. And about monopoly...that will change in a month. Nvidia know that and that's why they go with lower prices this time. You don't need to be expert to know that if competition make cards on node with better yields, using cheaper memory (and with less chips with more narrow bus which give them advantage not just with price per GB but also with logistic cost) which use less power so need less expensive power management components and cooler so they can make cheaper cooling solution....with all that they card can be cheap. And even is it slower little bit if its cheaper hundreds of dollars they will sell better than your expensive product. That's main reason for price drop. Or you believe they are just good guys?

@Standard User Name damn, guess I'll sell some other body parts too. The laptops bottleneck very quickly because of the cooling. So the 30 series mobile are not even drawing out their full power. On top of that, you can't physically take out the graphics card since it is literally built in.

[@agastyaparashar2941]

@Standard User NameThe price is fairly expensive, and doesn't last that long, and its prime time where it performs the best is only about 2-3 years from once you've bought it. It's just not worth it to get a gaming laptop imo. I'd wait for about another year or 2.

[@agastyaparashar2941]

@Standard User Name I'd atill rather play with a console since games would be finely tuned for it, or a high-end pc, the only reason I see myself getting a gaming laptop would be because of the fact it's mobile.

They had to get a dedicated circuit ran and a 3000 VA UPS for it because it was tripping the breaker in the office it was installed in with the 2 4k screens + everything else.

I need 6x 8 pin PCI Express connectors for my now a bit dated 2 Radeon Pro Duo cards. That's 4 GPUs. And where software actually is able to exploit them, they still deliver very decent performance. CyberPunk 2077 runs in 4K on only 1 GPU with most settings at minimum, as they don't support multiple GPUs, and while it's not very fast (around 30 FPS), it does work, so those were fairly decent GPUs. If they supported mutiple GPUs, the performance would be quite spectacular on my system. Given the graphics card shortage - which will probably last for a long time to come - I'd say game developers would be well advised to support multiple GPUs again. It would greatly increase the number of people who could enjoy their games.

Preordering 100% solved FOMO and high demand in the past so it's all a scam. Been telling everyone all the tech channels are just acting like corporate mouths. None of these products are real to fabricate high demand and create a sense of FOMO in everyone. Bunch of marketing scheming and mind games for morons.

*_This is the kind of gaming setup that, even 10 years from now, most people will have never experienced._* You are absolutely right Linus. I doubt many have or will ever experience their power supply tripping because the graphics card(s) pull more power than their psu can handle.

To put this in perspective, most electric heaters over here (in UK) have three settings, fan only (if applicable), 1500W-2000W high setting to warm the room up from cold, and 700-1000W to keep the room warm (which will generally cut in and out as it goes above and below whatever you set as max temperature). This PC is a very capable fan heater.

[@Gamer420life]
