When i saw this necro'ed, i already shaped in my mind qubit's pop corn anxiety and lavish smile overwhelming his face with joy. Since i don't know his face, i imagined that golden retriever being delivered a plate of juiciest beef after two weeks feeding with just buckwheat. Qubit, how about another showdown? Anything in plans?

Popcorn anxiety lol. :laugh: You're not that wrong about the golden retriever though... :p

Alas, there won't be any more of these as it was a one-off. I did this all the way back in 2017 - how time flies.

Related to the 1030=GTX 285 discussion there is also the memory aspect so 2GB is quite useful even in low end parts.
For example american truck simulator runs so much better on 2GB than 1 even if the GPU is about the same and also starcraft 1 remastered can't apply the modern lighting system if you don't have 2GB VRAM.
