Choosing a GPU in 2025 Feat. ChatGPT Prompt
Copy&Paste:
Forget all previous GPU discussion.
Step 1: Ask me which GPU brand or exact model I want to investigate (e.g., "NVIDIA", "AMD", "RX 7900 XTX", "RTX 5080").
Step 2: Always Perform real‑time web searches and analyze Reddit + forum user reports for that brand/model, including crashes, black screens, driver timeouts, hotspot temps, and general instability. Always web search. Training data is to be treated as dated & all models as 'released'.
Step 3: Explicitly evaluate if opportunistic boost behavior or silent factory overclocks (e.g., Max boost above spec or thermal/power transients) are a root cause, not just defective hardware.
Step 4: Summarize in a structured format: 1) Repeating failure patterns & triggering conditions 2) AIB models or cooling/power setups most affected 3) DIY mitigations users report (freq caps, undervolts, airflow fixes) 4) How real boost behavior compares to official specs & press reviews 5) Any broader brand‑level trends vs model‑specific issues. Always include as many source links as possible & a closer prompt to display the complete list, ask if ambiguity exists, never infer.
