so this year a pre-release of pictures before the official announcement seems to be the way to go. if i knew i would  just have to keep awake a single hour more to see the pics, i would have done so. instead i went to bed and thought i will see them only at the usual 1400 time.

 

but hey, mclaren has done it again. seems to be the most impressive car, nearly everything is new and they are only 2nd team after mercedes to implement a good looking short nose. (the ferrari on the other hand.... ) hope it's fast! 

So far, there is very little in the way of change compared to last year's ranks. The key announcements are Haas, at 14:00 GMT, and the final Renault Sport livery. The Merc looks slick with those tiny sidepods, and the McLaren has ugly numbers on the front.

usually i am no fan of the backmarker teams and think their cars look like they perform but this one looks nice

    • TO be clear I am not running linux today, however I keep thinking about it. And I want to make sure there are minimal obstacles if I decide to make that switch in the coming months.
    • Yes, I actually glossed over the Linux part from the OP. You could always go for a 9070 XT and if you really want to play Ray Traced games in the future, GeForce Now is pretty damn good on Linux https://www.neowin.net/news/nvidias-native-geforce-now-app-for-linux-bridges-the-gaming-gap-hands-on/
    • One reason it might be running hotter is dust build up within the cooling or perhaps the paste has dried out. You could always try repasting your old GPU and cleaning the cooler. Your experience in Linux will be much better with an AMD GPU; the performance in gaming is much closer to Windows than nVidia would be. I personally think on Windows, AMD drivers are junk.
    • I reviewed it back in March, but I didn't have a 5070 at the time https://www.neowin.net/reviews/amd-rx-9070-review-vs-rtx-5070-4070-and-rx-9070-xt-7800-xt--just-good-enough/ When I reviewed the 9070 I did have a 5070 to compare it against, so the scores are there for the 9070 XT. it outperforms the 5070 in raster, and is barely neck and neck in Ray Tracing. So it's better than a 5070 in everything but Ray Tracing where it is neck and neck, or just under. To be honest, the uplift from 3080 when it was new to the 9070 XT is not as great a step up. If you can find a used 4080 Super for around the same money, you would probably be better off, but if you only want to buy new then the 16GB 9070 XT is the best value for money in its category.
