I am a firm believer that if you have a bleeding edge system you are 100% entitled to playing stuff in max settings (at least in reasonable resolution). I don't see the point in blaming the customers when there is clearly a faulty product here.

Just to clear things up I am definitely not one of those people with the bleeding edge system with my 3060.

I don’t have a dog in this fight but bleeding edge literally implies that unreliability is to be expected. That’s why it’s bleeding edge and not leading edge.

English is not my native language so I may have used the term wrongly, I meant "bleeding edge" as basically very high end.

[–] NAS89 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No worries; that would be leading edge, which you’re probably correct in your original statement with that in mind.

Bleeding edge in English generally refers to day zero hardware, software, or services, in which mainstream support most likely doesn’t exist and it is generally anticipated that issues will be encountered.

I see, thanks for the clarification
