The numbers seem to come from SteamDB’s instant search.

There’s about a thousand more Verified and Playable games than two months ago.

An x1 slot is an x1 slot, the PCIe version will downgrade but there will still only be one lane because that’s all the slot physically has connections for. It will effectively be a PCIe 3.0 x1 slot.

Pretty sure if you put a PCIe 3.0 card in a 4.0 slot the slot will drop to 3.0, and 1 PCIe 3.0 lane probably isn’t going to work great with a card meant for 4 of them.

Coincidentally(?), today Humble launched a bundle that includes both Pillars of Eternity games.

I was going to start PoE on Game Pass soon, but I think real-time with pause was what turned me off of Baldur’s Gate 1 back in the day, so I guess I’ll wait for the patch.

The reason why those two new PSUs only have one 8-pin connector is because they both sport two 12V-2x6 sockets instead. The company does offer PSUs with up to three 8-pin and one 16-pin power slots.

The only reason why anyone would want to use two 12V-2x6 cables is to have a PC with two Nvidia graphics cards but given that SLI is dead and long gone on the latest generation of GeForce GPUs, dual setups are purely for AI, to let you do your own training and inference.

I’m not sure about the AI angle. The product pages for the PSUs don’t mention AI, and no company is going to make a product for AI and not mention AI.

DOJ is controlled by the fascists, so investigating nvidia would really only be a minor distraction from investigating and intimidating Trump’s many, many enemies.
