Why do you all talk so much about GPUs?
What is so interesting about GPUs? They're literally boxes that render pixels, you plug them in, they work.
Aren't ham radios, or microcontrollers much more interesting?

Normally there isn't much talk about GPUs except the odd build thread. Except when there are new cards launching. We had 1080 and the 1070 launched in the last month and AMD is launching the 470 and 480 soon.

GPUs are the pretty much the most exciting consumer technology with the most frequent meaningful improvement. CPU has been stagnant since 2011. Smartphone performance is just a marketing gimmick because it has almost no impact for 99% of end users(citation needed). Laptops suck now. Lol consoles. Etc

I think that only the people who want to upgrade talk about them.

I upgraded to a 290x last summer. I literally don't give a fuck about GPUs and won't for at least 3 or 4 more years.

It's the same with phones
