The RT and Tensor cores are primarily intended to power raytracing and DLSS, respectively. Both of those features will be used in conjunction with traditional shading/compute units, so the entire die is utilized at once, at least at a

The Turing architecture is also used in Quadro RTX cards, and those have a ridiculous amount of VRAM. Is there any professional/computational use for these RT cores beyond raytracing? One case that comes to mind is perhaps raytracing a

My Windows 10 desktop has similar issues. It'll fail to lock when idle most of the time. My theory is the mouse is kept active by minute vibrations from a nearby fan among other sources, but I haven't tested it yet. Either way, ho

The fast 4K random read is handy for delta backups to hard disk; I can read half a million files in about a minute, determine what changed, and send whatever small changes off to disk. Another great use case is for web/npm projects wit

This is why Optane storage is amazing. Wears out about ten times slower, and has incredible 4K random read performance on top of it. It almost feels like Intel is squandering a massive advantage by not pushing it harder. I know Optane DIMMs

For sure, although I think it isn't as well suited to being a remote daemon. With SimpleSSHD, all concerns are compartmentalized into an app, you get rsync out of the box plus a nice minimalist UI for monitoring. Then adb can be left d

It was never an issue for me. Giving the SimpleSSHD docs a quick glance, the app itself does not operate as root, although its packaged subcomponents like rsync optionally can depending on what shell you point them to. My phone isn't r
