Because it could be important for the plot or more likely the characterization/world-building.

The NPCs themselves (or readables) should be allowed to be racist and sexist.

I could have gotten a 1440p 165 Hz Samsung display clearance for cheap but I passed on it. Oh well.

They are great, probably the best place to find ultra deep dives on microarchitectures, filling a void left by AnandTech but going even further down the technical rabbit hole. Ryzen 5 5500 is also a leftover Cezanne trash 6-core with disabled iGPU. Pretty cheap as far as I know. It's possible to get an AM4 motherboard under $100. I hope you're not spending too much money on these ancient chips when cheaper newish ones are doing the same work with less energy. I guess it's the PCIe lanes you're after though, which are not plentiful on mainstream systems.

Did you mistype that? That's hardly a good match for anything, especially if your budget is $1300+.

I hope teeth regrowth technology takes off in the next 10 years. But enough about your ROTTING MOUTH, it's time to talk about the 9800X3D: https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/cpus/amd-crowns-the-ryzen-7-9800x3d-a-gaming-legend-in-a-surprise-announcement-chipmaker-claims-usd479-zen-5-3d-v-cache-chip-is-up-to-an-average-20-percent-faster-than-intel-core-ultra-9-flagship High $480 MSRP, existing 7800X3D stock is almost gone, 8% faster gaming on average, mostly from boosting the clocks. It makes Arrow Lake look silly.

Some version of RDNA in Sound Wave if it's released. Probably RDNA3.5 (efficiency optimized) or later. It's unclear what impact Sound Wave will have if any. It could never see the light of the day. Raspberry Pi is practically married to Broadcom and ARM, expect no change. They have added RISC-V cores to their latest Pico 2 microcontroller, almost as an experiment, but we shouldn't expect much more than that.
-
Not sure what you're asking for here. Sound Wave could be experimental, such as an attempt to win a specific contract that demanded an ARM-based chip. We don't know if it will see the light of day because they have been jerked around before, e.g. the Steam Deck chip was originally destined for Microsoft products. Remember the K12 Opteron (Rest In Power... efficiency).

If you watch the video, he picked the Polaris-based RX 460 because they're new enough to use the open source driver, but old enough to be well supported. There is no such card as the RX 7400 for ordinary desktop users, but if AMD made one based on the Navi 33 die, it could theoretically be pretty good. It could end up being similar to the mobile Radeon RX 7600S, or the workstation Radeon Pro W7500, both of which use around 70-75 Watts. There have been rumors that they will do this, but we are already nearing the release of RDNA4 GPUs. On the other hand, Nvidia released the comparable RTX 3050 6GB in February 2024, after the launch of every RTX 4000 and 4000 Super card.
