Needed to free up some space on my work drive, so I decided to delete some old cache clips from 2025. It started about fifteen minutes ago and it's still working on it...

1.18TB (and counting) of old cache data about to be deleted

It seems some people out there think that the RTX 3050 6GB is the worst GPU of all time, so... I guess I needed to defend it?

Oh, so you think you can build a better value desktop PC than a mini PC, do you? Well, good for you! You probably should! Sorry, that started out more confrontational than I intended.

So far this week: Plan A: started working on a video about budget frame gen, decided the idea needed more work than I had time for, shelved it. Plan B: Forgot GCN2 cards only output 4K at 30Hz over HDMI. Idea scrapped. Plan C: None of my 8GB DDR3 sticks work. Postponed. Fortunately, I have a plan D!

You can get cheaper 8GB cards, cheaper cards capable of RT, and cheaper cards with DLSS, but the 2060 Super is (possibly) the cheapest with all three.

You CAN build a PC with the same spec as a PS5, but will it be a PS5 equivalent? No. No, it says that it in the title. Kinda gave the game away, didn't I?
