Neowin's Official NCAA Tournament Contest!


Recommended Posts

right, so basketball sucks, bring on the baseball. my brackets are screwed. ive still got 3 of my final 4 and my national championship game intact, but it wont be enough for me to turn it around. kinda cool having 2 teams from alabama knock off #1 seeds.

sweet 16 begins in about an hour and a half. ive got my national champ, uconn, and one of my final 4, pitt, playing tonight. i also have wake winning tonight, and I'm pulling for Alabama over Syracuse.. gotta pull for the home team.

sorry, it ends tonight.

I hope you are right, but they way that Wake has been playing, they'll probably lose (Wake losing that is). I just hope that Wake wins and Billy Packer and Martelli get in to a fight, that would be hilarious.

Ouch, Wake Forest almost pulled off the win, but Saint Joe's prevailed!

yeah, and i lost pitt, so im down to 2 of my elite 8, 2 of my final 4, and they are both in my national championship game - GT and UConn.. but i dont really care anymore. It would be cool if alabama beat uconn.. this place would be crazy

    • 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.
    • I really hope the author's health is ok. Squirreling away a official backup of this software. Looks like the internet archive already cached a copy as well - https://web.archive.org/web/20...ldbit-soft.fi/software.html
    • AMD is supported out of the box in linux because of their open source driver. Nvidia does not. All my systems are amd and all of them work nicely on linux arch without doing anything.
