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.

Apple's AirTags

This blog is to discuss if AirTags really prevent thefts... Misusage So I read a lot of theories on how these tags are actually helping in the thefts. So if you are a thief and stealing a bike with an AirTag, you get a notification on your iPhone and then you can easily disable that. But, it's not so easy. The Tag does not notify you that an AirTag is with you until you reach a landmark. So that the owner knows you stopped at that landmark. Maybe your house, mall or a restaurant. Now there is one problem with this. If I have an AirTag and I plant it in your bag for example. So you won't know something with a GPS is with you giving your location and telling the landmark you are at. So people can track you and that is both scary and creepy. Good or Bad? Eh.. A bit of both. So, it's great if someone is trying to steal your stuff but, it's creepy when someone is stalking your movement. But, this is the first time Apple is doing this so it is not perfect but, I believe it is...

Intel's Trap

 This is my blog to review Acer Triton 300 SE, Asus Dash F15 and MSI Stealth 15M's performance with the Intel H35 chips. I will also talk about the competition between Intel and AMD. Many gaming laptops are coming out, and some of them are good, especially the new AMD ones but if you are looking to buy a laptop and your choice has an Intel chip; You have been fooled! So I am going to talk about some new Intel devices and then about Intel in general. Now I have nothing against Intel, in fact, I myself am typing this on an Intel device. Asus Dash F15 This machine has a 4-core CPU. So, this makes it easy to cool, lighter, thinner, and you would think cheaper. So it is a nice idea. But, Asus didn't make it cheap. So it does not really make sense anymore. This laptop will cost you 1700$, and you can get 8-core Asus devices in that range so why would somebody go for this?  The gaming performance is good as it has RTX 3070, and most of the games will give you a good frame...

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...
