Intel mainly needs to keep competing in the low-mid range, where both AMD and especially Nvidia suck

GI'm talking like the 200-400 dollar budget range
VAMD are doing pretty well there, Intel could do better but it'll be hard. ARC gen 2 will be more revealing I think.
GWe'll have both Arc gen 2 and RDNA 4, which is said to focus more in that range, so definitely good things to come
VFor sure
KI'd wait for the new gen, none of the current Intel cards are an upgrade over a 6700xt
VI mean, that's what I was alluding too lol
KOh derp. Yeah that makes sense. Sorry, I'm waiting for tea to brew and am not yet properly functional this morning 
JMy Intel Arc card performs bad on Windows but that's because I don't have above 4G decoding support or resizable bar support. It works great on Linux I think Linux doesn't care about that stuff being enabled in the bios unlike windows
KI've been debating the sidegrade from my 6700xt to an Arc A770 just for extra 4gb of VRAM
KOld motherboard?
JSuper old it's a DDR3 platform
Aim so mad with local stores they dont even have intel arc a750 or a770 
KCheck Amazon, its where I'd get one if I was going to
JI went with Newegg for my ark GPU
Awell, if they have cash on delievery then maybe
Kah pretty sure they don't, no
JI never heard of a place doing cash on delivery
KNot since 1980's TV ads at least.
JYeah I was about to say if I was accepting cash on delivery that would be like a big red flag right there
Aits like delievery man comes to your location and you pay with cash for package to get it
JLearned the hard way about accepting checks
KI haven't used a cheque in.. a couple of decades
JYeah accepting a check got me banned from most banks
Koof.
JThe US banking system really hates people that get scammed
Aits too risky
GOne of the only times I've ever accepted a cheque was for a car sale lol
KLast time I think I used one was to pay rent in 2002 or something.
JI mostly use checks when I'm sending money to my mother or receiving money from my mother
KI know for sure by 2004 my rent had direct withdrawl
Kbut it's been 20 years so I can't recall precisely when that switched over
Alol
JThe place where I'm is paid either in check or online and they're online payment site hasn't worked since they set it up
KEven cash got way less common here during the pandemic. Basically everything is tap to pay.
JYeah I mostly tap my phone now
KI mean, you can still USE cash, but I rarely see people doing so at any place that takes debit/credit (Which is 98% of places, maybe some ice cream trucks or whatever don't.)
Asounds dumb cuz its risky and with cash is easier and safer lol
JActually cash can be easily counterfeited if you have the right equipment
KReally the only issues I've noticed from it is once when the debit system went down on like Dec 23 and played merry havoc with christmas shopping. Made the news
Aand easily can be detected
JUnless you're a moron like my gas station who literally has a trump $100 bill on the wall because someone accepted it
KI've had tenants pay their rent in cash a few times due to bank problems or something on their end, but that's always annoying, because then I have to make a special trip into the bank to deposit that crap.
JAt least if you're getting paid in cash you don't have to report it on taxes
KOh, I do. I have to legally provide rent receipts for THEIR taxes
JOh right I forgot with housing stuff you have to provide paper trails
KYeah. You do not fuck with the tax man.
Aif you get caught and u will get fined and amounts how much u have from that paid for cash
J¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Aeven Joker knows not to mess with tax man lol
JI mean I pay my $10 in sales tax to my state
