This hotpot doesn’t taste great.
The reason being, Yang Dong bought the hotpot ingredients that weren’t fresh enough, especially the vegetables, they were wilted and tasteless after boiling.
"Alright! Given the circumstances, let’s make do..."
Yang Dong rolled his eyes and said, "It’s snowing outside, even the delivery guys are taking a break, where do you expect to get fresh vegetables from?"
"That’s true."
Chen Ba turned to look out the window, and indeed saw that the snow today was heavy, the entire food plaza was a blanket of white, obscuring everything from view.
With this weather, having hotpot is already a blessing, can’t ask for much more.
The studio’s on holiday.
Affected by the bad weather and with Spring Festival approaching, the other employees are working from ho, Xianyu Digital also halted express deliveries, leaving only the trio in the studio.
"How’s the GAL League going?"
Picking up a piece of beef Lu just put in the pot, completely ignoring Lu’s resentful gaze, Chen Ba asked Yang Dong, "Is AMD still the biggest hope for the championship this year?"
"Nope!"
Putting down his chopsticks, Yang Dong handed each person a bottle of drink and said, "AMD is old news, NVIDIA leads the GAL points this year."
You can pop the champagne early!
As long as the few matches in spring and sumr don’t ss up, a big congrats to Old Huang for triumphing in the GAL League, winning the back-to-back championship.
That’s right, back-to-back!
AMD won the first edition, NVIDIA the second, and this year’s matches aren’t over yet, but according to the points standings prediction, it’s likely Old Huang again.
"Is this about to establish a dynasty!"
Upon hearing that Old Huang is close to a back-to-back, Chen Ba was surprised, he didn’t expect AMD to fall behind so quickly.
He guessed AMD’s earlier lead wouldn’t last long and NVIDIA might catch up, but didn’t think they’d catch up this fast.
Also, is their technical strength that strong?
One championship can be considered luck, but with a back-to-back looming, it’s hard to deny, NVIDIA has so unique edge in tuning consur PC graphics cards.
"Haha!"
"Old Huang squeezed toothpaste over the past five years, probably not as much as the past two years. The ga ’Star Emperor’ is a huge stimulus to the graphics card industry."
Lu shared a bunch of data.
According to the data, after ’Star Emperor’ was released, the tech iteration speed of major graphics card vendors increased by noticeably double compared to previous years.
In other words, although still squeezing toothpaste, the toothpaste capacity squeezed in these past two years is stronger year by year!
Taking the N card for example, the 50 series is appealing, the 5070 is even hailed as another ’divine card’ following the 1060.
But the 50 series isn’t much...
Old Huang indicated they would continue pushing past limits in the 60 series, won’t stop until goals are achieved, this ti the 60 series must conquer ’Star Emperor’.
He even announced, if the 6060 card can’t handle 1080P ’Star Emperor’ Extre Sublimation Other-Transformation Freedom Technique, he’d swim around the Pacific Ocean.
Harsh words from Old Huang!
Having said this, naturally, players know the 60 series moves seem bigger than the 50 series, this ti, Old Huang is serious to defend the graphics card vendors’ honor.
This is undoubtedly good news for players.
After all, no one likes squeezing toothpaste, with the sa price, the more packed it is, the keener everyone is to buy.
Chen Ba is actually quite pleased too.
Ga developers, actually welco seeing hardware vendors push tech iteration, because with new tech, they can develop stunning masterpieces freely.
Just...
The 50 series used 3nm process already, how can the 60 series further improve on this basis? It’s perplexing!
But despite the perplexity, Chen Ba could roughly guess, Old Huang’s enhancent this ti is mostly about driver or core architecture improvents, unlikely to be process upgrades.
"GAL League’s biggest contribution, has been accelerating the obsolescence update speed of the PC hardware platform."
Yang Dong took a bite of vegetables, pondering aloud, "Now PC gaming players, especially single-player ones, have top-notch hardware configurations."
What does this an?
ans many ideas that could only stay as PPT presentations before, now have potential to beco actual products.
"The Dream Building Engine 6th-generation is about to be released, Ba, should we integrate it ASAP and develop a new ga for it?" Lu asked eagerly.
"No!"
Chen Ba shook his head, expressing little interest in the so-called Dream Building 6th-generation engine.
Previously, there was no choice, and the Dream Building Engine was technically mature and inclusive, so they used it for ga developnt.
But now, Chen Ba had an immature idea, which is to develop a dedicated ga engine for Tianba Studio, for the upcoming new ga.
"What?"
Hearing this, Lu and Yang Dong were stunned.
Dedicated ga engine?
This term isn’t fresh, the gaming industry already has many ga engines, all serving singular or multiple gas.
Ba’s idea isn’t odd, in the industry, it’s quite a normal thing.
The shock for Lu and Yang Dong primarily ca from the fact that creating a dedicated engine for a ga typically belongs to AAA titles.
Exactly!
Gas like ’Crysis’, the ’Battlefield’ series, the ’Elder Scrolls’ series, etc., fad AAA titles, have such honor.
