Dear GPU Designers, Please Stop Doing This

Next time you feel guilty about your janky code that somehow works, remember we're all just making rocks do math. Silicon, flattened and zapped with electricity, now solves complex algorithms because we said so. Your hacky solution is just continuing the grand tradition of tricking minerals into thinking.

The eternal struggle of chasing hardware upgrades! While everyone's hyping 8K resolution, some of us are still running the same potato hardware since the Clinton administration. It's like Moore's Law meets financial reality—your GPU budget is inversely proportional to your rent payments. That graphics card you're eyeing costs more than your first car, but hey, those extra pixels in Minecraft are totally worth it. Meanwhile your IDE still lags when you type too fast.

That moment when your RAM sticks don't slide in with that satisfying click on the first attempt, and suddenly you're King Théoden preparing for the Battle of Helm's Deep. The ritual begins: wiggling the stick, checking alignment, blowing on the contacts like it's a 90s Nintendo cartridge, and finally using enough force that you're convinced you're about to snap your $200 memory in half. Every PC builder knows this special kind of anxiety—where a simple component installation transforms into an epic saga worthy of Middle-earth.

Nvidia's AI assistant just pulled the classic "have you tried upgrading to a better GPU?" move on someone who already owns their top-tier RTX 5090 . This is like a doctor recommending heart surgery to a patient with an artificial heart they installed last week. The irony is absolutely delicious—Nvidia's own tool can't recognize its flagship product and instead tries to upsell the very hardware that's already powering the conversation. It's the GPU equivalent of "Did you try turning it off and on again?" except it costs $2000.

Ah yes, the highly scientific comparison between AMD and NVIDIA where the only metric is... *checks notes*... the number in the product name. Groundbreaking research showing that 6900 is indeed larger than 3090. Next up: shocking revelation that RTX 4090 absolutely destroys both in this revolutionary benchmark. Hardware enthusiasts in shambles right now.

The mythical RTX 5060 has achieved the impossible - scoring exactly 0 FPS with no drivers installed! It's like trying to drive a Ferrari without a steering wheel or engine. The graph shows every other GPU flexing their ray-tracing muscles while the 5060 sits at the bottom with a sad little "()" instead of actual numbers. Whoever made this fake benchmark chart forgot that GPUs need, you know, actual software to function. It's basically the hardware equivalent of dividing by zero - mathematically undefined, practically hilarious. Next benchmark: testing how well it performs as an expensive paperweight!
