Given the tepid response to the 2070 and above, I'd say your analysis of the 2060 pricing is spot on.
I wouldn't. The 2070 and the 2080 were underwhelming in performance and priced significantly higher than there lower down competition. I.e. RTX 2070 RRP was higher than the GTX 1080 and only performed marginally better.
By comparison the RTX 2060 is $100 cheaper than the GTX 1070 Ti and either equals or outperforms it. By all accounts this may be the only card that has hit the market at the right price point so far for its new release.
nVidia is charging about twice what this card is actually worth. Wait a while.
Based on what? The card outperforms the 1070Ti which has an RRP $100 higher than that and the market has shown that it happily will pay the money for cards with that price / performance.
Should be $149 based on what? You have here a card that outperforms the GTX 1070 Ti and is cheaper. The benchmark here is has been show to be priced at a point the market will happily pay for.
What's your basis for a lower cost? You just hate profits and think it's a good business decision to leave money on the table? Remember the RTX 2060 is only the bottom in the top tier. Expect a lot more cards to come to the market in the next 6 months at your price point. (Rumored GTX 1160)
you're going to still have a good amount of time before you'll even notice the issue
Only if you're asleep. In most cases engines either make a loud noise or the plane suddenly gets half as loud. Engine problems are typically noticed straight away by passengers, even when they don't get sucked out of the plane window.
Something is wrong with our society when space science funding is suspended because of a political disagreement over "The Wall".
Something is wrong in your society in general when funding for operational services are suspended because of political disagreement for any new law or proposal. The science part is completely irrelevant. Other countries have laws that specifically state that you can't tack anything not related to operational budget to the operational budget bill.
Media box? Is this the making of some old school joke? Next you'll be telling me you connect it to the TV with cables like something from the movies.
If a tv doesn't have at least 2GB of memory, don't call it "smart".
And now that I'm done picking on your for your view of the past, I'm going to pick on you for your view of the present. WTF do you need 2GB of memory for in an appliance!
I remember Starcontrol 2 shipped with a starchart too big to fit on the photocopier, and you had to identify stars to start the game. Those crafty DRM people were a technological step ahead at that point.
By your DMV ref, you clearly understand that I'm right.
Because a process is slow the people carrying it out don't have an honest job and deserve to not get paychecks during the government spat? You're quite a despicable human.
Yes it is. Designing what you suggested is literally something every electrical engineer needs to do as part of their degree, often it's a simple second year course before you get into the complicated nature of switching characteristics (such as class-D amplifiers) that are reserved for advanced parts of the degree.
What? No. You can buy Class D chips off the shelf.
Oh I thought you were designing amplifiers. I didn't know you thought they magically appeared. Speaking of, you can happily buy normal linear amplifiers off the shelf as well, throw a MOSFET on the output along with a current source, apply feedback over the entire thing and presto, even with your "you can buy it off the shelf" you're still simpler and more trivial than doing anything Class D.
The folks at Texas and Linear and a bunch of Chinese manufacturers actually know their stuff pretty well.
Oh I agree. But I'm not sure you know the heritage or what the "Linear" part of Linear semiconductors actually refers to.
There's no need to do faffrey with heatsinks
Doing a heatsink calculation is easier than solving ohms law, but then your original requirement didn't say I wasn't allowed to use heatsinks, that's moving the goalposts.
low noise fans
You've done it wrong.
Excluding the PSU, it's one chip and a few passives.
You didn't design a class-D amplifier. You bought one off the shelf. You can do the same with with any other.
Just buy a small Coretx-M0 with an I2S bus and bitbang the PWM or sigma-delta directly and hook 5 GPIOs to 4 power MOSFETS.
Holy crap that's complicated. No thanks. Analogue is much easier, especially when you have modern MOSFETs which you can slap a long tail paid on the input, throw a CCS on the output and a small voltage bias in between and achieve exactly what you want.
See easy! Just because you don't know how to do something doesn't mean it isn't trivial.
having the phone indicate that it is using the different protocol is useful
That's good and fine, but unless it does 20Gbps using 15GHz which it does not by a long shot, it has no business displaying a 5 anywhere in the title bar. Call it what it is: LTE-A Pro.
many times faster than the crystals themselves can update.
Justify that statement given that 480Hz LCD panels are a thing. Where's your citation that this display's crystals are slower than cycle of changing charge given to it.
Whether or not 240Hz is a true benefit or not is something else entirely.
Sigh go back to the top and read the thread again. And if you can't find the similarities between the examples already mentioned and how incredibly different they are to GIMP then really there's not much more I can do to help you.
Cool you decided an entire case based on a paragraph legal filing. Why bother with lawyers and judges or juries. With the power of *you* we can breath new efficiency into the world.
Now snide comment asside:
2. Can adjust to rapid changes: never specified how rapid; opinion-based statement that cannot be false
Did you find the actual quote the lawsuit is referring to or are you guessing?
3. Masters at managing channels: if you claim Nvidia is not a master in their industry, the burden of proof is on you
Have you seen how horribly they fucked up their channel? They are stuck with a mountain of a Pascal they are unable to move. This is fundamentally what the lawsuit is about.
4. Understand channel very well: qualitative statement, cannot be false
True.
5. Assured surging crypto demand would not have a negative impact: incorrect statement; oops; being wrong isn't fraud
Fraud is entirely dependent on how you word your statements. Being wrong may or may not be fraud.
Okay I'm done being serious, where was I? Oh that's right you should decide all fraud cases too while you're at it. By simply looking at a filing you've summed up the entire lawsuit with "oops". Great work. With you at the helm we can eliminate mountains of paperwork, briefs, filings, and decisions and finally stop deforesting the world. Hurrah.
All the people who didn't work over the shutdown will get paid
Except for all those rich white and definitely not vulnerable folk part time being not paid by the hour. And I'm sure there's no impact to those super rich government front desk workers who will be getting their pay checks delayed (I wonder if the landlords will also delay their rent payments).
On behalf of all those people you allege are not affected and will be better off, fuck you.
Marvels problem is they refuse to let anyone actually die
I will bet you a dollar that someone dies in the upcoming movie and that it will be the end of their participation in the cinematic universe, I'll bet you another dollar that I can guess who it is, and I'm only willing to put down 50c that a second character will reach their end as well.

Since when do mid-range graphics cards cost more than a gaming console?
Since mid range graphics cards became an order of magnitude more powerful than shitty gaming consoles.
Every mid-range graphics card I've bought has been $99 to $199.
You haven't bought mid-range graphics cards, you've bought low range graphics cards.

Then you will end up with a company laptop you have no use.
Why would red / cute / light equate to something for which you have no use?

Japan is not a real place. Don't believe everything you see in cartoons.
Keep the class A turned up to 11 and they make no more heat than any other amp.
If you want to get technical at the point where they make no more heat than any other amp they would no longer be Class A ;-)
Mind you, your bleeding ears won't care about the sudden increase in distortion as you drop into Class B.
No it's really not.
Yes it is.

Oh wow. "Honest job" and generalisations about people working in the government at a time when they are being screwed.
I've met some horrible arses in my time, but you... you sir deserve to die of starvation in a queue at the DMV.
Nope, joke not gotten. Can you explain it?
In any case, RTX 2070 or not, it's not pushing enough frames for a display like this to matter.
What makes you say that? There's plenty of games where you exceed 120fps at 1080p even on a GTX 1070.
