A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

In good news, we got a summary of his 9950x3d2 review, which was basically that it's a ripoff at $900. Unironically, if you're somehow in the market for a CPU like that, consider either the 9950x3d for productivity and core count, or the 9800x3d for gaming. The 9950x3d2 brings nothing to the table for anyone outside of maybe some niche applications which need both core count and cache size and can afford the latency for data transfers between CCDs.

Or, I guess, don't buy anything because all the companies suck and everything is unbelievably expensive. Who needs a computer anyway?
