"Jensen sir, 50 series is too hot"

"Easy fix with my massive unparalleled intellect. Just turn off the sensor"

If you needed any more proof that Nvidia is continuing to enshittify their monopoly and milk consumers. Hey lets remove one of the critical things that lets you diagnose a bad card and catch bad situations that might result in gpu deathdoors! Dont need that shit, Just buy new ones every 2 years you poors!

If you buy a Nvidia GPU, you are part of the problem here.

Yeah NVIDIA is a bullshit company and has been for a while. AMD and Intel need to get their raytracing game up so they become a real competitor for NVIDIA especially now when there are more games that require raytracing.

No games "require" raytracing and the ones that support it may look better when you turn it on but it's not worth the performance cost.

Not true anymore.

The Indiana Jones game that just came out does require ray tracing. There are a few others coming out that do as well.

So anyone with an older or non-nvidia card can just get fucked?

This sounds like an Nvidia monopolistic backroom deal or something. Bet you'll see an Nvidia splash on those games' startup.

AMD cards can do ray tracing too. Not nearly as well, but they can.
