    Looks great! I wonder if this could be used to create some kind of podcast-based sponsorblock equivalent? I know there are issues with podcast- (providers) inserting sponsor reads and ads at random / unknown times, so, not sure how it could be done reliably.

    They must have a lot of departments full of white, straight men to compensate, otherwise the company would surely go under. /s

    Ich bin noch nicht soooo alt, knapp unter 40, aber cis-het und weiß. Ich habe nur ein Feindbild und das sind autoritär-denkende. Je mehr Geld, Macht und Einfluss die haben, desto mehr passen sie in mein Feindbild.

    Jetzt schaue ich mich mal nach solchen Menschen um und merke, dass da ein Muster entsteht: Die sind alle ziemlich weiß, alt und cis.

    Die könnten auch alle schwarze, weibliche Lesben sein und dann wären die immer noch in meinem Feindbild.

    Es ist die Auffassung, dass der eigene Lebensstil anderen aufgebunden werden muss und die Fähigkeit dieses zu tun, welches mein Feindbild informiert. Sehr an den kategorischen Imperativ angelehnt.

    Eine Welt ohne solche Menschen ist eine kompliziertere Welt und mit etwas Glück eine bessere Welt. Ob wir jemals herausfinden, ob das der Fall ist, weiß ich nicht. Bis dato sieht es eher so aus, als würde die Autorität mit uns in die Hölle reiten.

    Ich werde jetzt mal darauf eingehen und hoffe wirklich hier auf einen Nenner zu kommen. Ich glaube, wir vertreten ähnliche Ansichtsweisen, aber von unterschiedlichen Perspektiven...was ich jetzt sage ist auf keiner Weise persönlich oder als Angriff gemeint. Wenn es also so klingt, versuche es nochmal als nicht-Angriff zu interpretieren und falls es dann immer noch so rüberkommt, lass es mich wissen und ich kann das dann hoffentlich richtig rücken...

    1-4 Manche Leute lieben eben Schubladen. Statt also einfach friedlich zu leben und einfach sein Ding durchzuziehen, finden manche Leute nichts befriedigender, als anderen darüber zu erzählen, wie sie die Leute alle in Schubladen klassifizieren, je mehr desto besser. Wobei da auch wieder jede Person ihr eigenes Klassifizierungsschema und dessen Bezeichnungen als das beste System ansieht.

    Ist das nicht eine ur-menschliche Angewohnheit, welche es zu bekämpfen gilt? Jedes System, welches versucht, eine perfekte Klassifizierung zu erschaffen, scheitert. Paradoxerweise ist es leider unmöglich ohne eine Form von Klassifizierung ein funktionierendes System herzustellen. Diese Sisyphusarbeit muss also immer weitergemacht werden. Und wenn man sich jetzt die Gesetzeslage in einigen Ländern anschaut, dann sind Klassifizierungen immer noch recht simpel. Es gibt Männer, Frauen und ein paar Religionen und das wars. Schubladendenken gab es schon immer und wurde teilweise benutzt, um unvorstellbare Menschenrechtsverletzungen zu legitimieren. Klassifizierung, nicht Ausgrenzung, ist da vielleicht als Philosophie am nützlichsten.

    Besonders gut zu sehen am Begriff LGBT, der seit einiger Zeit gefühlt wöchentlich um neue Buchstaben, Zahlen, und Zeichen erweitert wird, genau so wie die Regenbogenflagge, die einst für das zelebrieren der Unterschiede (alle Farben, aber erkennbar getrennt) und der damit einhergehenden Gemeinsamkeit (“unity in diversity”, vereint in Vielfalt) aller Menschen stand, aber inzwischen ein hochgradig politisch motiviertes und mehrfach verändertes Kampfsymbol geworden ist.

    Ernsthaft, ich schaue mir das aus der Distanz an, weil ich nicht zu der LGBTQIA++ Gruppe gehöre und finde das, was die da machen, teilweise anstrengend und kompliziert. Wie jede Identitätsfindung so ist. Besonders, wenn da die Flagge neu definiert wird und neue Buchstaben an das Akronym drangehängt werden. Aber ich schaue es mir halt aus der Distanz an. Ich warte ab und schaue, was passiert. Ich gebe mein Bestes, denen dabei nicht im Weg zu stehen. Mir hat ein Leben lang niemand im Weg gestanden, weil ich halt ins Schema gepasst habe. (Naja, weil ich so getan habe, als würde ich passen und das hat funktioniert, weil ich ein weißer Mann bin)

    5 Tatsächlich nichts. Stattdessen fordern einige besonders extreme Menschen sogar, diese Denkweisen schon im Kindergarten zu fördern.

    Hier kann man zwei Wege einschlagen: Entweder, es gibt Denkweisen, welche gefördert werden müssen (und Denkweisen, welche unterbunden werden müssen), oder das freie Denken (das Denken selbst, kritisches Denken) ist die oberste Direktive.

    Der erste Weg bedeutet, dass es jemanden gibt, der entscheiden kann, welche Denkweisen gefördert werden. Der zweite Weg ist eigentlich nur der erste Weg, aber mit weniger Autorität.

    Und hier wird es ganz schnell sehr kompliziert. Kinder wehren sich gegen Dinge, die zu sehr in sie reingedrescht werden. Du kannst also versuchen, denen was auf Teufel-komm-raus einzuprügeln (sei es dass es Geschlechter nicht gibt, sei es, dass es nur zwei Geschlechter gibt etc.), musst dann aber das Risiko der Rebellion in Kauf nehmen, oder, du kannst versuchen so viele Perspektiven wie möglich zur Schau zu stellen und hoffen, dass die Kinder ihre eigenen Entscheidungen treffen.

    Wenn links-extreme Kindergärtner autoritär ihr Weltbild propagieren und alle anderen Perspektiven verbieten, dann ist das genau so schädlich, als wenn rechts-extreme Kindergärtner das machen. Beide sind zum Scheitern verurteilt und vergeuden ihre Zeit.

    Die größere Frage, meiner Meinung nach, ist, was wir verlieren, wenn dir den Menschen kritisches Denken beibringen. Die Antwort darauf erscheint mir immer und immer wieder zu sein: Nichts, außer etablierten Machtstrukturen, welche alles, wirklich alles im Namen des Selbsterhaltes tun werden. Die schrecken an nichts zurück. Warum auch? Deren Lebensgrundlage ist es, den Status Quo zu erhalten.

    Ich sage das nochmal etwas deutlicher: Reiche und Mächtige Menschen (und damit meine ich irgendwo zwischen 10.000 - 100.000 der reichsten Menschen) werden alles daran setzen, dass niemand herausfindet, dass diese Welt eine bessere Welt sein könnte, denn egal welche Veränderung (egal welche), hat eine unproportional-große Chance, deren Leben (welches nicht besser sein könnte) irgendwie zu verschlechtern. Deswegen verändert sich nichts, deswegen wird nichts besser.

    Was in Kindergärten passiert hat damit nichts zu tun, denn die Probleme, auf welche die Menschheit gerade zusteuert, sind existenziell und während wir in unserem eigenen Exkrement verenden, lachen sich die Reichen ins Fäustchen, weil sie wussten, dass sie uns mit Gender-Schwachsinn ablenken konnten.

    Warum muss das Thema "Gender" überhaupt gepusht werden? Gibt es keine größeren Probleme?

    Es gibt viele Probleme. Das Thema wird aus vielen Gründen 'gepusht'. Der dümmste Grund sind die Klicks. Menschen regen sich gerne darüber auf, weil es eben ihr Weltbild leicht in Frage stellt. Und damit kommen die meisten Menschen nicht klar (und zwar, weil das so antrainiert wird. Wir könnten damit klarkommen, aber inflexible Menschen sind gehorsamer, weil man denen einfacher mit belanglosen Dingen wie Gender-Zeugs Angst machen kann), und das bringt mich zu meinem zweiten Punkt: Alle rechten / konservativen Politiker wissen seit Beginn der Menschheitsgeschichte, dass gesellschaftsspaltende Themen sehr nützlich sind, um von echten Problemen abzulenken. Je perfekter die Spaltung, desto höher die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass du mit sehr wenig Anstrengung 50% der Wähler einsammeln kannst. Wenn du also weißt, was die Menschen bewegt (siehe Brexit), dann musst du nur irgendeinen Scheiß labern, den die hören wollen, und zack, ist die Wahl gewonnen. Eine riesige Anzahl der Wähler sind single-issue voter (wie man das so schön auf Englisch sagt) und stimmen für egal wen, der gerade das emotionalste Thema für sie vertritt. Also, mit Medien, die mit künstlicher Aufregung gesellschaftsspaltende Themen pushen und Politikern, die davon profitieren, hast du hier einen perfekten Sturm.

    Warum wird bei der Sprache angefangen und nicht Zeit/Geld in konkretere Maßnahmen gesteckt, um mehr Akzeptanz für Menschen außerhalb des klassischen Spektrums im Alltag zu erreichen?

    Was ist denn das klassische Spektrum, und warum verdienen die irgendetwas, was nicht sonst auch jeder verdient? Bei der Sprache wurde nicht angefangen. Das ist eher ein Symptom des über Jahrzehnte lang hart erkämpften Fortschritts. Wir sind eher bei der Sprache angekommen. Das stört halt jeden, dem die Kapazität zu kleinsten Veränderungen fehlt. Besonders wenn es irgendwie unbequem oder unbekannt ist. Das sind die gleichen Menschen, die, wenn wir hier von heute auf morgen Gilead aus der Handmaid’s Tale ausrufen würden, sofort fleißig mitmachen würden. Ist also einfach nur Trotz, der einer Mischung von religiöser Erziehung / jahrelanger Indoktrinierung jeglicher anderer Sorten entstammt.

    Warum herrscht so ein riesiges Durcheinander (gefühlt entsteht jede Woche eine neue Geschlechteridentität)?

    Die Frage ist schwer zu beantworten. Das Durcheinander bei den Religionen ist eigentlich viel schlimmer, wir sind nur daran gewöhnt. Neue Geschlechteridentitäten werden von wie vielen Menschen angenommen? Ein paar hundert? Ein paar tausend? Was jemand sein will, ist doch deren Sache. Wenn man sich jetzt Sorgen darum macht, dass man ins Gefängnis kommt, weil man einen Furry nicht mit den Pronomen Hund / Katze, sondern Er / Sie angesprochen hat, sollte man vielleicht eine kurze Twitter-Pause einlegen und sich anschauen, wie lange es dauert, überhaupt nur die winzigsten Fortschritte in diesen Bereichen zu erringen.

    Warum gibt es zig verschiedene "Sprech-/Schreibweisen" für das korrekte Gendern? Warum wird nicht erstmal ein einheitlicher Standard erarbeitet, der dann allgemein verwendet wird?

    An so ein heikles Thema will niemand in der Politik ran. Sobald da irgendwas vorgeschrieben wird, gehen die AFD-Wähler auf die Straße und schreien Faschismus. Wenn es nur eine Guideline ist, bleiben alle verwirrt. Siehe Rechtschreibreform. Ich würde einfach abwarten und schauen, worauf sich die Gesellschaft einigt.

    Was wird getan, um (insbesondere Kinder) vor Verwirrung zu schützen? Damit ist gemeint, dass die Gefahr besteht, dass ein Nicht-Festlegen auf eine Identität einen tieferen Selbstfindungsprozess verhindern könnte ("Mach was du willst, du musst nichts entscheiden, du kannst alles noch nachträglich ändern" -> kein festes "Fundament" für Persönlichkeit)

    Hmmm, warum ist denn ein festes Fundament für die Persönlichkeit ausschlaggebend? Selbstfindung dauert ein Leben lang (bei mir sieht’s zumindest so aus). Ich glaube, dass die Kinder hier mal wieder mit reingezogen werden, weil Menschen darauf emotional reagieren. Hier wird das wieder so abgetan, als seien Kinder komplett unfähig, sich von externen Eindrücken zu separieren. Aber das Gegenteil ist doch der Fall. Ich bin religiös erzogen worden. Mit 11 hatte ich einmal die Strumpfhosen meiner Mutter und Ihre Stöckelschuhe an. Mit 12 habe ich Quake und Doom und so entdeckt. Bin ich also ein erz-religiöser (Erziehung), Transvestit (mal eine Strumpfhose angehabt) und Massenmörder (Doom / Quake) geworden? Nein. Ich bin durch und durch Cis, hetero, Atheist und hasse jede Form der Gewalt so dermaßen, dass ich in den USA wahrscheinlich nie Politiker werden könnte. Wovor beschützen wir die Kinder also? Ich dachte Kinder machen genau das, was ihnen verboten wird. Je mehr wir also Sexualität unter den Teppich kehren, desto mehr wollen die Kinder das, oder? Wobei ich das auch nicht glaube. Im Endeffekt machen Kinder was sie wollen und Menschen werden, was sie halt in sich spüren. Was wir machen sollten, ist Menschen nicht aufgrund ihrer 'Andersartigkeit' zu verachten. Menschen werden gefährlich, wenn sie misshandelt werden. Nicht, wenn ihnen die Wahl gegeben wird, ihre Geschlechtsidentität zu finden.

    This is only a problem because people aren't having children. And in some ways, that's a good thing. Until we find more sustainable ways to exist, more children are not good for the environment.

    If governments wanted to encourage people having children, they'd have to do something to counteract the world turning into a capitalist-dystopian hell-scape. So far it looks like governments are doing the opposite. They act like it's still the 50s with 'The rising tide lifts all boats' and 'trickle-down economics' still being things people believe in. Nobody does, though.

    How is anyone supposed to trust in the future, when it's clear that the world is a rich people's playground, where a few hundred-thousand people get to self-actualise in the most insane ways, while the remaining ~7.9 billion are wage-slaves having to live through shocking daily indignities at the behest of the ruling class.

    Not sure how we'd fix it though. Workers have no interest in acting in unison. While rich people do (and are much easier to coordinate). Eventually, the ruling class will just use AI-powered police / military to ensure nobody challenges the status quo. So it feels a bit like the game is lost.

    Yup, this aligns closely with my own impression of what needs doing. I'd only add to this that people need to be aware how billionaire wealth works. Nearly nobody receives just a billion in their bank account every year. Billionaires' wealth is stored in investments (normally a company they've founded, or bought, owning loads of shares, which then blow up to create unbelievable wealth). But this isn't liquid, accessible money. Billionaires use this wealth to borrow against, which banks happily do, knowing that it's safe to do so, considering the billionaire's leverage. This is one mechanism by which billionaires avoid paying taxes, for example. Here, things become tricky: How do you take this power away from the billionaire? How do you tax share ownership? There are some approaches, but I'm not sure any of them have ever been tried. If you just force the billionaire to sell 90% of their shares above 1,000,000,000 in value, the share price will plummet immediately. That doesn't really work. You could prohibit borrowing against value held in shares, but you'd somehow need to limit this to ultra-rich people. Or you somehow devalue shares held beyond 1,000,000,000, so that this isn't actually wealth the billionaire can use (to buy elections, or media companies). But then what's the point of having 299 billion worth of shares just sitting there doing nothing (in Elon's case, for example). It's a surprisingly difficult problem to solve. You could split the shares across many people. So any shares above 1,000,000,000 in value have to be divided evenly across the workforce of your company or something.

    This is all theoretical though, because most billionaires would happily murder every last human being with their bare hands before giving up 0.0000000000001% of their wealth.

    While I wholeheartedly agree, we need to "solve the concentration of power in the hands of the few problem". Even if you simply said all the stocks and shares of current billionaires can't have money lent against them (or however you want to address this without taking half the economy with it), there will just be a new class of psychopathic narcissists to take the place of the current ones. I feel without some kind of set of laws which enforces continuous dilution of power by somehow spreading it across more people and randomising who is allowed to influence what (which can only really be done with computers or AI) these cycles will repeat themselves ad infinitum.

    • can people be trusted with authority, on a general level? Are there studies to prove / disprove the adage that power corrupts / that people with personality disorders such as psychopathy or narcissism seek out (or thrive in, or are promoted to) positions of power?

    Thank you again, I shall revise my opinion from now on and seek out more studies on the matter.

    What I find interesting is that reigning in abuse at the behest of bosses / management / leadership would solve a gigantic number of problems in today's society. 'Nobody wants to work anymore' is actually 'nobody wants to be treated like shit by power-hungry psychopaths'. BUT, it is so difficult / impossible to change the intrinsic human assholification of anyone with power (see Stanford prison experiment), that companies will try anything else.

    aaaaand now we know nothing will be done.

    (until doing work becomes worth it and doesn't take over your life and until the power is with the employees and bosses have to treat workers with respect, there will not be more children. governments do nothing to support people with families. paternity / maternity leave is a joke, childcare costs are astronomical, both parents have to work...it's bonkers that this is normalised and in some ways I'm glad birthrates are going down, as scaring our slave-drivers with potentially reduced profits is the only way anything will ever change and they can't do anything about it EXCEPT concede some freedom to the workers)

    I perform well in areas I have interests in. Thus, by coincidence, I can appear capable in those areas. I'm also shockingly stupid in other areas. I've noticed a few things about how I learn: it has to be practical. Nothing theoretical will stick, unless put into practice. Thus, school was hell. I am also a devilish combination of a very slow learner who thinks differently about things. When a teacher taught things to the class, everyone got it immediately and I always somehow managed to come up with my own, weird, wrong interpretation of things. Once I have finally learned something, I am very accurate and precise, which is fairly useful in the fields I've worked in. I also have a flexible mind, which is great. I can usually reason outside of the confines most people think within. Which, see school, can be a blessing or a curse.

    I've met truly intelligent people. Like, real freaks of nature types. PhDs in aerospace engineering, that sort of thing. Their universal intelligence is something else. It has shown and demonstrated to me beyond a shadow of a doubt that there are levels of comprehension, both in the uptake and subsequent processing of almost any information, that I will never reach.

    But don't for a minute think that these were happy people.

    Beautifully written and entirely spot on. The question is whether we will do anything about it. We probably have 10-30 years before this elite will entrench themselves forever with some kind of robot police that truly can't be overthrown. (And it's not like anyone is rising up now, even though the power is clearly with the workers)

    And then this elite will Habsburg-jaw themselves into oblivion and all that remains of humanity are machines built in the name of shareholder profits. What a sad way for things to end.

    Yup, you're right, I've had OLED TVs in my sight for quite a while. They seem to be ridiculously cheap compared to OLED monitors. Seems like you could get a lot of bang for your buck there. And cheaper OLEDs also mitigate for the burn-in issue somewhat, as you could just buy a new one if it ever becomes unbearable. How have you found things like text rendering to work on the OLED TV?

    Normally I like buying things second hand as well. That way I can buy second-hand, sell my things to make up for the cost, too. With OLED, second-hand feels risky, due to burn-in again.

    German here. Lived in Hamburg and Munich for about half my life each. They call Bavaria the Texas of Germany, but that's just in relation to the rest of Germany politically. German conservatism is nothing like American conservatism, thank God. Right-wing disinformation cancer is spreading in Germany, like it is anywhere else (AFD in the east). Any LGBTQ folks don't need to worry in any big cities. I'd recommend Munich over Berlin, but that's personal preference (Berlin is like Germany's London, loud, dirty, exciting, more crime than any other part of Germany, which is still less than most places in the US). Like, you won't 'feel' the difference between Hamburg and Munich politically. In Berlin you might find a few more people openly displaying their left or right leaning tendencies. It's also much cheaper than Munich, not sure if that matters.

    Monitors are an exciting place of development. They make such a huge difference when upgraded. The jumps between TN -> IPS -> OLED are crazy and completely change the experience. Almost nothing else makes such a big difference. Maybe HDD -> SSD was similar.

    Capitalism requires coercion to function. Capitalists openly admit this by being staunchly against removing 'incentives' (read the coercion) to work. The 'incentive' is goddamn starvation and being exposed to the raw elements with no shelter. And apparently, if this was a basic human right provided to everyone, we'd all stop working over night and become lazy. It's just such an ass-backwards way to look at the world. People are not inherently lazy. But they need to be forced to work shitty jobs under unacceptable conditions. That's the crux of the matter. The ultra-rich require wage slaves. Not free-thinking, educated people who go after their own interests and are productive in their own ways. I'm interested to see how the system will hold up when all the shitty jobs have been automated away. My guess is that the rich will flee to some kind of Elysium type paradise, while robot police keeps the masses in check and 'poor' people, aka 99% of humanity goes extinct.

    This feels closest to the response I would have written. I would perhaps add, that one of the consequences of this system is, that money insulates you from having to improve. Someone like Trump will never go to a therapist to fix whatever mental illness made him turn into who he is, precisely because he doesn't need to. Money can prop up the most evil, stupid, useless people for generations and generations. If they had to live examined lives, they'd stop being evil. The only ways to fix this, that I can see, are all utopian sounding, but shouldn't be. Wage ratios for example. As CEO you simply shouldn't be able to hold more shares or earn more income than, say, 10x that of the lowest paid worker in your organisation. And that needs to include subsidiaries and 3rd parties. This system would have to be implemented globally. Never going to happen though. We can fight a pointless global war on drugs, but we definitely won't reduce CEO income.

    This is an interesting proposition while holding out for OLED monitors (still too worried about burn-in). So instead of going low-brightness and infinite contrast (OLED), you can go high-brightness (HDR1000 mini-led), yes with blooming around your cursor, but for gaming / media consumption it could be pretty good. Especially at that price. Though I suspect $500 translates to £700 lol...

    Yes I think they are trying to gaslight us into believing these new tiers are acceptable. Heck, there was going to be a 4080 that they begrudgingly rebranded 4070 after the world ridiculed them.

    Honestly, if I look at the state of things in the GPU segment particularly, I feel that the thing people will care about the most will be price / performance.

    Nvidia is trying to sell people on hardware that had barely improved on previous generations by introducing things like dlss3 (frame generation at the cost of latency) but honestly, if a used 3080 can keep up with a brand new 4070 for less money, why on earth would I get the latest generation?

    Seems wild. I am hoping for Intel and AMD to present some serious competition. I wonder whether Nvidia no longer cares about gamers and instead thinks AI / Datacenter applications are where the real profit is to be gained.

    About a GTX 1060, though that CPU will hold it back at times. I suppose it makes sense to have GPU headroom, rather than CPU headroom, however.

    Toms Hardware: MSI Launches Sleek GeForce RTX 4060 GPUs For RGB Haters www.tomshardware.com

    Posting this as it's relevant to me. Along with Asrock's recent initiative to sell mobos without RGB (for like £100 less!), I'm happy to announce there's a graphics card now too. Stupidly it's a useless graphics card that nobody should ever buy, but here's to hoping that people who don't need RGB can get cheaper components without flashy lights on them :) (I really don't have anything against RGB, if people love it, good for them. But I have something against not being able to buy anything without RGB and then paying a premium for something I don't want)

    Another excellent Guru3D article.

I've cabled the whole house with Cat 6 cables, so should be able to do 10gbit one day. Routers and extension cards are a bit too pricey for that still.

    Here's an article close to my heart. I've been wondering about this specific issue for a while, because I'm on a B550 motherboard, which just about supports the 5800X3D. (current proc is a 5600X) I bought a used 3080 a while ago and have high hopes for better 99th percentile performance. I don't know whether my DDR4 RAM will hold me back, but at the same time, there's no chance I could afford a DDR5 based platform with a 7800X3D. New ram, processor and mobo is just out of the question with current hardware prices, so I'm hoping to be able to put together a 'last-gen-fast' system.

    Yesterday I was out and about, having to use mobile data. Suddenly, Jerboa reported a certificate error wile browsing feddit.de. I figured it was just a glitch, but the error persisted. Tried accessing it via browser on mobile and suddenly I'm getting some Vodafone gateway telling me I need to unlock 18+ content....WTF? I'm not even on Vodafone, so presumably my phone was data-roaming. Accessing Reddit was, naturally, no problem. I'd love to know how many orders of magnitude more porn there is on Reddit than on Feddit lol...but feddit is blocked?? Anyway, I swiftly put my VPN on my phone and it's no longer an issue. Very bizarre to see this, though. Has anyone else encountered it?

    Love Guru3D, been reading Hilbert's content for...who knows how long. Decades? Anyway, I'm also very interested in OLED tech and have so far felt hesitant to commit, mainly because of burn-in. I'm from the CRT monitor era, so burn-in lingers in my mind. Until someone guarantees no burn in for many years on OLED, I'm not going for it. Perhaps waiting for MicroLED is the way to go. But that feels about a decade away. Whichever one it ends up being, the day I make the switch will be glorious.

Maybe the 4k per eyes will be enough, but you hear that resolution requirements for text-clarity in VR are monstrous (with some people claiming 8k per eye is required). I'm obviously not spending $3.5k on this thing and I definitely don't want anything to do with the Apple ecosystem, but if Apple can raise the bar for other manufacturers to try and match, we hopefully all benefit.

    From the video description: "We interviewed one of Noctua's technical team members (Jakob Dellinger) to discuss the challenges and troubles of focusing entirely on performance for a cooling product. This video goes over fan behaviors like tensile strength, endurance, aging, creep, and cooling characteristics like blade tip distance from the frame and blade passing harmonics. The video is a surprisingly transparent insight into what Noctua has been dealing with for 8 years now as it has attempted to reinvent its most popular product, and the company now thinks it has an NH-D15 Gen2 and "Next Gen Fan" nearly ready for primetime."
