Very nice, that’s a great chip! I’m excited for you, enjoy the new rig 😊

I’m very, very happy with the 9800X3D, so you can save yourself a bit of cash there to put towards the GPU. With a fast modern CPU like that, you might even consider an Intel B580 to relieve that GPU bottleneck.

I’m sorry, now we’re not just simulating rays to trace, we’re emulating simulating rays to trace? How is that more efficient?! Computer science == warlockry, change my mind.

When giving feedback, it helps to avoid derogatory phrasing and instead specify what you don’t like and why. The key word there being “specify”. Otherwise, you don’t have a point, and you’ll come across like a dick.

Edit: okay, suffer an eternity of complaining about things that never get fixed; no skin off my nose.

Not sure if you saw elsewhere in the thread but Obsidian slows down the more notes you have because it doesn’t have a DB. Trillium is DB-based (and thus so is TrilliumNext) so it can handle a lot more entries. OP said they’ve got 300,000 notes without a performance drop!
