8 lanes per GPU is plenty, the performance diff with 16 is ~3%. Games will run faster with SLI setup on Ryzen. Why do you even need SLI, 1080 Ti will be good enough for 5K gaming.
- lightedman 10y agoYour piddly 5K doesn't stand up to my 8K professional video setup. To boot, I have multiple drives, and PCI-E/M.2 based networking and storage as well. Please try again when you need to juggle 1,000+ video feeds simultaneously and truly understand what REAL power requires.
- Keyframe 10y agoYou ought to check out this new computer Amiga 4000 with Video Toaster. It can do all the amazing video effects you're doing AND play games.
- unethical_ban 10y agoI don't know if it was attempted, but you can turn down the condescension.
- lightedman 10y agoCondescension is warranted towards those who assume they know anything about one's needs.
- dabadoo 10y agoNo it isn't you fuck twat.

- dang 10y agoYour comment broke the HN guidelines. The civility rule applies here regardless of what someone else assumed, so please take care to abide by it. Even if you don't feel like being nice to the other person, you owe it to the community.
- lightedman 10y agoWhat exactly do I owe to a community that refuses to support the people I send to it? You consistently refuse to fix your broken braille support for denoting italics. Can you or sctb provide an answer to why this blatant discrimination is occurring? I believe the community deserves a public answer.
- lightedman 10y agoI'd also like to point out that studies show that people read the words of others in their own inner voice - in other words, the poster saying I was being condescending was likely being the condescending one.
- MrRadar 10y agoIf those are your needs you're well beyond enthusiast/prosumer and into workstation/enterprise server territory. Their upcoming Naples platform will probably be right up your alley, with octo-channel memory and up to 32 cores/64 threads per socket (though, of course, I'm sure it will all come at a cost).
- lightedman 10y ago"If those are your needs you're well beyond enthusiast/prosumer" Allow me to introduce you to Camfrog. Absolutely consumer, boss.
- MrRadar 10y agoYou said 8K video with thousands of streams. That thing just looks like a normal video chat app that any modern CPU should have no problems with.
- lightedman 10y agoNo, you need GPU acceleration because you can open as many videos as you can fit on your screen. I have quad 4K monitors for an 8K setup. I can have a couple thousand video streams at once. Let me see ANY CPU that does that.
- solotronics 10y agojust curious what are you doing with all those video streams?
