Yes I think it comes down to software, the "made in USA" flatbed I have is about 100% chinese components mechanically. I'm sure just about every flatbed out there is full of made in china components

"budget" options that most here are using Colex Summa Also cutworx machines look good, great price. The new magnetic drive looks cool

Driver issues are common with new generation launches and the problems get resolved overtime. The latest generation for both companies is mature, most bugs gone. Can't go wrong with either one, AMD does give a little more performance per $$$ but can't quite compete in the highest end that's why...

I put in honest work into making my design and yall ruined my chance of winning the grand price.

I guess I'm the official winner then!

At that point I used 200 liters of ink = $33k in ink = $.066 per square foot ink cost

I'm a little biased towards AMD, buying up since Lisa Su took over

Forgot that this 3770k pc is on windows 10, don't think 11 is possible due to the TMP security thing that win 11 requires. Win 11 can be set up very close visually to win 10 so hard to tell a difference without digging in My 7950x has the big noctua cooler NH-D15 , idle Temps are good not much...

All of my computers are windows 11 now except for the flatbed cutter is on win10. No issued related to win 11. 7950x will be plenty for the next 10 years. My main designs/gaming PC is 7950x and RIP is 5800x. I'm typing this on a 11 year old 3770k (was 2nd fastest cpu in 2012) PC, one benefit...
