In computer chips pretty much all energy ends up as heat. But it's also not wasted energy like it would be in an internal combustion engine.

I'm pretty sure your 3090ti puts out more heat, since it can eat a lot more power(450W TDP). How hot the card gets has little effect on its heat output.

Reply to comment by panzerfan in AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT / XTX review: 4K performance for less | AMD’s top RDNA 3 GPU manages to beat the RTX 4080 in many games at a $200 lower price. But ray-tracing performance is far behind Nvidia. by chrisdh79
This is not even remotely true. Sure they'll look much better on an oled (qled is not in the same league.. and it's mostly made up by samsung) but raytracing looks good on all panel types.
It's cutting edge tech for pc gaming, of course it's going to be for a small group.

That's a fair point. It's a good feature.

Yeah, I'm sure it was the crash detection and not the fact that his wife suddenly screamed while driving and the conversation stopped suddenly. And it wasn't a matter of life and death, the crash was light according to the article.
>He was on a phone call with her when he heard her scream — and the line went dead.
from the article.

Sorry I wasn't clear. My point was heat in a cpu is a by-product by design and yeah it's always going to be 100% wasted. I guess it heats our rooms, that's something.
But in an ICE where heat(thermal energy) is what is converted to movement.
