RTX 3060

 This is my review of the new Nvidia RTX 3060. This is the cheapest GPU from RTX'S 30 series.


Performance

So this is Nvidia's cheapest GPU and the one with the best value. This will probably be their bestseller. Let's get into it. The performance is good but, not surprising, it is what you would expect from a 329$ machine. It is very well priced at 329, I would like it somewhere below 300 but 329 is good enough. Now 3060 has 12GB of RAM, more than 3060 Ti and 3080, Why, you ask? Well Nvidia being Nvidia knows that AMD will give 12GB RAM in their upcoming GPUs at a price much more than 300$, so they gave a competitor to them. If you put 70$ more you get 3060Ti and I would prefer that, Sure, it is a bit more expensive but, I think it is better in long-term and Ti has a better design as well.


Gamers VS Miners

Some time ago, Nvidia announced that RTX 3060's hash rate will be half of its ability. The reason for this was stock. If there is not a good hash rate, the miners won't buy this and there will be more for the gamers. And, they were not lying. It cripples a lot. They also said that they will be launching a new series for the miners. They claim that this will not affect the origina RTX and GTX products. Now, some people Nvidia is selfish in doing this and all of this is bad for us. But, I believe that their greed for money works well with the gamer's point of view here. Let's see...



Does Nvidia really care about the gamers?

I think Nvidia cares about the games much more than the miners. Because, when they sell this thing to a gamer he will use all the tech for a long time and keep it but, miners sell it after their use and that disturbs the economic structure for the company. People could argue that, all Nvidia cares about is money. But, see gamers make them money so Nvidia can't just care about the money and ignore the gamers.

17' Razer Blade Pro 2019

 Hey Guys, Welcome back to Interesting Intelligence! This laptop is SO much better than the previous blade pro. The thermals are crazy good. I would say that it is their best gaming laptop with awesome thermal performance. This laptop is brand new from this year, It is completely redesigned. It is their most expensive, most powerful and the most big-screened gaming laptop and it's a nice looking unit. I like this laptop a lot, however, there are some things which I want you to know if you're interested in picking this thing up! 1) Hardware The build of this device is very similar to the build of the 15' this year. It's got the same kind of design, shape, the light-up snake logo up front. It is very much an updated Razer product. I highly recommend you for getting a case or skin it if you buy a black one because even with very safe handling this device sometimes has dents and they are very much visible on a black one.         This laptop is obviously big...

OnePlus 9 - You HAVE to settle

This is a review of the OnePlus 9 and its comparison to the OnePlus 9 Pro and 8 Pro. This blog also includes discussion related to the missing OIS in OnePlus. Hardware There is a lot to like about this phone. I love the fact that it has a flat-screen and this was going to be my preferred phone instead of the 9 Pro but that may have changed. So the speakers are as good as the 9 Pro ones. They are not as good as gaming phones but, they're good. There is a solid 7-8 hours of battery life. There is a wireless charger but, with less but, still enough power. The battery is much more consistent than the battery on 9 Pro because of the high refresh rate in the Pro version. The Problem So I was sure that the OnePlus 9 camera was going to as good as the 8 Pro if not better. But, for some reason, OnePlus decide to remove optical image stabilization. This may sound very small but, the difference is huge and every OnePlus phone has had it till this one. Which 730$ does not have OIS. I am really...

Surface Pro X

This is my review of the Microsoft Surface Pro X. Do you think this ARM-based tablet can compete with the iPad Pro or Surface Pro? Surface Pro X is a product which was clearly designed to compete with what iPads offer. This is a thin, elegant looking, magnetically attached tablet that has an ergonomic design that looks good with good battery life and still runs Windows 10 for the functionality that people want in a computing device. I am gonna start with hardware and then I will come to user experience. This is not a super-light machine. It is slightly lighter than the regular Surface Pro. It has a bigger screen and thinner bezels and is heavier than an iPad Pro. The finish of this device is black anodized aluminium. I also found that some of the edges have got sharper. Due to the sharp edges, this device becomes prone to damages which generally should not be the case in premium Surface devices. Protect this stuff! I highly recommend a skin for this device. This is a go...
