5060 Day 1 Benchmarks With No Drivers

The universal law of USB ports: you'll always try to plug it in wrong twice before getting it right. First attempt? Wrong. Flip it? Still wrong. Flip it back to the original position that somehow magically works now? Success! It's like quantum physics for connectors - the USB exists in a superposition of wrong orientations until observed by the third attempt. After 15 years in tech, I'm convinced USB ports are secretly designed by chaos engineers who feed on our frustration.

OH. MY. GOD. Someone took "thumb drive" WAY too literally! Instead of using an actual USB flash drive to update their BIOS like a normal human being, this tech rebel just JAMMED THEIR ACTUAL THUMB into the computer port! The audacity! The innovation! The sheer disregard for basic computer anatomy! I'm having heart palpitations just looking at this hardware violation. Next thing you know they'll be "installing more RAM" by shoving a sheep into their PC case. THE HORROR!

Remember when we thought the GPU shortage was bad? Fast forward to 2025 where a junior dev's entire salary buys you this luxury stone-crafted setup with genuine smile-based UI. The irony is this rock PC probably runs Windows 11 better than my actual machine. At least it's not constantly pestering you about Microsoft account login—the stone age had its perks. Honestly, with cloud computing prices skyrocketing faster than housing, this might be the most economically sound dev environment. Bonus: it doubles as home decor that says "I've completely given up on affording actual tech."

Remember when DDR3 felt fast? Now we're watching DDR5 literally rocket past everything like it's got a nuclear engine strapped to it. The hardware acceleration is getting ridiculous—we went from "cute little car" to "ACTUAL SPACECRAFT" in just two generations. Meanwhile, your code is still just as inefficient as ever. Sure, throw more memory at it! That'll fix those 47 nested for-loops you wrote after your third energy drink at 3 AM. At this rate, DDR6 will just be a black hole that sucks your wallet into another dimension while promising to load your Electron apps 0.002 seconds faster.

The bravest soul in the tech universe, sitting there with a "4K IS OVERRATED" sign in 2023. This is like walking into a gaming convention with "RGB lighting causes cancer" written on your forehead. Meanwhile, this dude's probably coding on a 720p monitor from 2008 and telling everyone his eyes "can't see the difference anyway." Sure buddy, and I'm still using dial-up because broadband is "just a fad."

You hit restart by mistake and your heart stops for a second... then you remember you've got an SSD. That brief moment of panic followed by the realization that your computer will be back up before you can even finish your sigh. Remember when rebooting meant you had time to make coffee, file taxes, and contemplate your career choices? SSD boot times are so fast now that your dramatic "OH NO!" moment barely has time to exist before you're staring at your desktop again. The only thing that takes forever these days is that one coworker who still blames "computer problems" for being late to meetings.
