Seems like a fun thing to know, what generation do our active users hail from?

 

Typically, the still living hail from:

As you can see they overlap so part of it is definitely how you identify yourself in those overlapping years!

 

Me? Gen X (1972) no argument :p

Heh I considered doing an "Other" choice for those that don't identify with a generation, or the offchance we have one or more 95+/yo "G.I. Generation" member(s) on Neowin ;)

We need a "Generation Y2K" (Born after 2000)

 

If you thought Millennials were bad the generation  Y2K will (probably) be magnitudes worse.

Or better. They will probably take into account any of the mistakes the Millennials have made and try a different approach to prevent further damage.

I also despise the title, but having missed the mid 90s by a year (1994), I'm 'an' Millennial. Given that the denomination for the generation goes by [Name] > [Generation - letter -] > [Name], I'm curious to see what the people who are born two generations from now are going to be called. Are we going to go the Wi-Fi / Excel route? Generation AA, AB, AC, etc? :p

    • NVIDIA officially supports Ubuntu, as linked above with the GeForce NOW Hands on I did in collaboration with Paul Hill.
    • 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.
