There were three coaching changes today in the NFL. All of them are related to the Baltimore Ravens.

The 49ers has offered Ravens Defensive Coordinator Mike Nolan their head coach opening and he has accepted. They are in negotiations on the contract.

The Ravens have named Jim Fassel their new Offensive Coordinator and former Washington coach Rick Neuheisel the new QB coach.

I'm surprised the 49ers found a new coach so fast. Now I wonder what they will do with the 1st pick in the draft.

Now that Matt Leinart isn't coming out of USC, I hope to God the 49ers trade down the pick and to get a bunch of help on the offensive and defensive line. Our linebackers and secondary are young but improving rapidly, injuries just hit too hard this season. But, we have zero pass rush and zero pass protection and running game.

We'll still be inline to get a good pick next season, which we could then use on a quarterback. Either that, or we trade down a few spots and draft Aaron Rogers from Cal and hopefully get another pick in the deal - which wouldn't be bad.

Hopefully with Nolan coming from Baltimore, we can stop trying to rely on the offense to do everything and we can finally get an above average defense. I'm thinking that's what the 49ers are going for, especially if they plan to stick with Tim Rattay/Ken Dorsey at QB.

And man, the Ravens are going to have a fantastic coaching staff. Neuheisel will be great for Kyle Boller.

      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.
