    This is mind-boggling to me though.

    I come from an era where Spectrum coders had to tolerate some of their barely few 8 colours fucking overlapping each other due to .. well, it all being a bit shit.

    I mean, fucking look at these two bi tone bastards...

    And yet here we have, thirty years later, a card doing what appears to be 20-odd high-computing passes on a high-resolution screen, 20-fucking-plus times a second.

    Christ, on a good GPU, 60 times .

    It really is incredible.
