Whee I can't believe it's happening tomorrow. I bet it's was finished a week ago but they gave a confirmed date this late on so that they can make sure it's COMPLETELY finished.

I know your plans. :ninja:

I'm quite sure the Dev's did use jQuery in this project, so if you guy aren't aware that jQuery 1.4 is going to be released today, here you go:

They have finished both Ignition and Atlas, its currently running on http://ignition.neowin.net/ (atleast I think so), maybe they finished a week back, mainly because the subscribers were given a change to test it out and report bugs but they are only upgrading it tomorrow.

Wouldn't it make the upgrade easier if there was some sort of system purge? As in delete all the accounts of people who have No activity that registered before say 2008?

Yeah! I opted for this on a large Norwegian forum as well. I think 12 months is good time for purging old users.

Yeah in terms of size, just like post counts.. Neowin prides on the amount of registrations and posts here.

If we were to continuously purge inactive accounts, we'd slide out of the top 10 "big boards" into "just another forum" on the web.

Our stats are an achievement, why should we remove that?

I hope that there would be a easier way to refresh the forums, right now I navigate to the Forum tab in the navigation menu. Or maybe I should just bookmark Neowin forums. Another question, is the forums going to be on forum.neowin.net of neowin.net/forum ?

Looks to me like Neowin has dropped quite a bit in the Big Board rankings. Weren't we in the Top 100 at one time?

Nr 31. in the computer category.. Yeah we slipped a bit but we were never in the top 100 global listing.. I think at one point we were at 127.

I haven't even seen the new design.

I imagine I'm gonna be more blown away than most people. So needless to say, I can't wait.

Hope everything goes well for you guys! See you on the other side? (Y):D

Check around the announcement forum (this one) you will find it

    • AMD 9070XT

      By cooky560 · Posted

      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.

      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
