Looking back at 2023 and predictions for 2024...


Hap-pey Burf-yay!
 
 
The introduction to last year's post could almost be copy/pasted into this one. Work was even more intense than last year and I know for a fact that 2024 will be even tougher, so my hopes for spending time writing for this blog look set to be a big loss... But, that doesn't mean that I won't try and address things when I feel I can dedicate the time or perform more comparisons and benchmarks for everyone to digest.
 
2023 was a big year for hardware releases - with most of the current generations of CPU and GPUs being released at some point. Sure, we're getting some minor refreshes from Nvidia next year but, overall, 2024 looks set to be quite boring.
 
With that in mind, my predictions for this coming year were quite hard to pin down - what is left to predict? 

So let's start where we always do: the review of last year's predictions.
