I'll just leave this here... *barfs*


There is some deterioration though. In multiplayer games, the community often fades over time.

As far as I know it's an ASIC, so the performance hit would be practically zero (apart from any memory bandwidth hogging).

Yeah. Honestly though, whichever source you use, in terms of units sold it's pretty much a draw.

Nope, it's the other way around. By a slim margin, but still.


EA going full retard is nothing new. Guess they misunderstood what Graphics Core Next means (by the time the consoles arrive, AMD...

Lolwut. They'd be lucky to get to 100 million with the new Xbox, let alone the old one.

All Xbox One games are now MMOs.

Oh man, this is brilliant. It's like they want to show Activision-Blizzard and EA just how badly you can really f things up with the cloud.

Thanks for the input. I think I'm going to get Endless Space now. If I wasn't already.


Nope. More of an indie thing, looks like. I could always check it out later, if ES turns out to be too...

I for one welcome our new imperial overlord.

Meh, I can live without the hands-on spaceship tactics. I mean, I liked the battles in MOO2, but they weren't the main draw for me.

And a good UI...

So I have a space strategy itch, and there are two interesting space strategy games on sale at the moment. But I can't decide which one to throw all my monies at. I'm probably more inclined toward...

Once a day is certainly going to be a smaller problem than a few times per hour in games like SimCity.

Guess she thought it was a graphics card.

Well... modded 7970M and modded 7870 are basically the same thing. Guess they just compared to what most people in their target demographic would be familiar with. Plus 7970M has a bigger number in...

Wat.

Those are compute units to be exact, not compute shaders (each compute unit contains 64 shaders), but that's just semantics.

More importantly, I don't see what they have to do with the...

It uses the GCN architecture, not old-school VLIW.

The GPU being on-die is a mixed blessing. Major cost advantage, most likely. But memory gets a bit muddled. They need to make the most of the...

768 GCN shaders. That's between the Radeon HD 7770 and Radeon HD 7790.

I am aware of the phenomenon known as idiocy. It's quite common among humans.


Well, the internet has become more easily accessible over time, and now there's going to be more of a reason to...

75C isn't problematic for GPUs, they can take a lot of heat. And Cayman (the 6970/6950 GPU) is known for running relatively hot.

The cooler won't necessarily go to 100%. Fans get very noisy...

Oh. They could have made that more intuitive. =/

Steam is not the only way to buy and play PC games. Shocking, I know.

Of course, connectedness is becoming more and more prevalent. A once a day connection requirement is going to annoy some...

CPU-Z is a popular program for that, though it doesn't actually report clocks per core. At first glance, things seem alright in that pic. ~1600 MHz is what the processor idles at.

Microsoft in a nutshell. People outside the US aren't really people. We're lucky if we even get to throw money at Microsoft at all, as far as they are concerned.

Uhm, well, this type of overclocking is relatively straightforward. You just go into BIOS/UEFI by pressing F2, DEL or whatever when prompted while the computer boots, find your CPUs Turbo Boost...

Which heatsink is that? And what program did you stress test with?

50 degrees during a serious stress test is fine. So the heatsink seems to be doing its job...

You can overclock your CPU by 400 MHz by increasing the Turbo Boost multipliers. You could also increase the BCLK, but I wouldn't recommend that.

This Intel diagram is actually about the Core...
