I am aware and hence the word optimisation (instead of simply pouring money by hardware).

Yes, exactly… For another example, the DeepSeek team developed their own replacement to CUDA with PTX (Parallel Thread Execution) a lower-level assembly-like language that allows for more granular optimisations of GPU performance offering 10X efficiency improvement recently as GPU sanctions were levied on China. This innovative approach not only challenges the dominance of CUDA in the AI landscape but also opens up new possibilities for optimizing GPU performance in various applications and this is what missing not only from those relying on Nvidia but its competitors whether AMD or Apple that prefers to have its own proprietary solutions.

“They come from a completely different world.”

This is what I meant to say, not whether they’re good or bad. In this case, someone else to beat Nvidia then expecting either AMD or Intel (existing players) or even Apple (again, I am aware they don’t sell dedicated GPUs) to break the competition.

DeepSeek is just a recent example to the usual Microsoft or Google or Apple aka Nvidia-AMD and now at most Intel. This is not about which GPU can run what.

AMD is much of a scum as Nvidia is or Intel was, that’s why DeepSeek is something that came from China and you would need a new player completely outside of the current chain.

You depend on the cloud instead~

The fediverse and the decentralised web has a long way to go and need to learn a thing or two about UX unless it wants to join the plight of Linux distros.

Seeing the unaddressed issue of bullying to class interruption if not cheating, dumb phones like the blackberry type should be allowed aka ban smartphones and not cellphones.

Just looking for a free alternative..

I actually tried SimpleX because of this person..

My views were based on post-pandemic after Asus started becoming unreliable for my original recommendation of Asus ROG G14 where Lenovo to Razer are pretty much hated as well by users. If this is the case, then I can only think of MacBooks with VMWare or Virtual Box if not Asahi Linux.

It seems like every other PC Laptop has a problem whether it’s a Lenovo or Asus for example, my feedback on MSI has been good so far mostly based post-pandemic but things indeed can change if that’s your case. Do you have any preference of your own?

XPS used to be the premium gaming brand Dell released to compete with the likes of Alienware, only for them to buy Alienware and relegate XPS to high end enterprise category. Gaming only means a Nvidia GPU or proper performance but don’t fall for AI PC to Ultrabook kind of categorisations with Windows side of things - Whether you’re into LLM, Content Generation, Data Processing, Blender, Editing, Gaming or even Mining… all will be achieved as long as the CPU-GPU is capable. Razer is one example that copies MacBook Pro aesthetics while having RGBs to cater to both professionals and gamers with one product line but aren’t necessarily with good or respectable after sales service.

I would’ve suggested Asus ROG as well like the G14 for price-to-performance ratio but they’ve been recently falling from grace as well mostly realised by users after the purchase is complete. Not many options are there really globally.

MSI seems rock solid.

Asus ROG series to MSI seems interesting this CES, personally don’t see much problem with compatibility through Pop!_OS

Prepared to be heartbroken ~

I mean… Dell Pro Max ¯(ツ)_/¯

Nvidia would likely prefer to sell a whole package as Apple.

Would recommend to not recommend Dell to future buyers, it’s not Apple vs Samsung like in the smartphone options of US.
