I've been reading HardOCP for an awful long time and in that time it's been one of the very few sites where BS has been called for what it is. This is a BS move by AMD and I'm glad you guys are calling them out for it.
Yes it is. A laptop being used for more then 3 years is going to need a new battery and hard disc failure after that time frame is also very likely regaedless of what manufacturer you go with.
I've had at least 6 VAIO laptops over the years with the rest of my family sporting them as well. They were always well built and they've all lasted well over 5 years. The only times they required any servicing was to replace the battery and 2 times HDDs died, but that's just normal wear and...
Frankly I don't blame the retailer at all for this. If a person doesn't value their information enough to wipe it off a device before returning it, then it is their own fault when it falls into someone else's hands. People need to take responsibility for their lack of knowledge and general...
I can't wait to buy this thing but why is the release date so late? Does it really take that long to overclock the G-Sync module and attach it to the existing LG panel and release the darned thing?
Well I guess this means that I either have to buy another Titan X if I want 4k or I'll just buy the Acer X34 Ultrawide 1440p screen and be done with it for the next couple of years. BTW thanks everyone for posting, it was helpful.
There are some who claim that if a 4k monitor (not a TV) is run at 1080p there is little to no distinguishable difference in image quality to native 4k when running games. The claim is plausible since for each 1 pixel there would just be 4 pixels when running a 4k at 1080p and so no scaling is...
I'm considering buying a new monitor in the next few months when the next set of G-sync monitors come out. I currently have a 27" 1440p PLS panel and a Titan X, but I doubt if the Titan X will be able to handle 4K with everything maxed out.
So I want to hear from anyone who actually OWNS a...
I'm one of the very few people out there who still wears a watch. I've had the Apple Watch for about two weeks now. I bought it at first just because I was curious as to what they had done with it.
Yesterday I put the apple watch aside and put on one of my normal watches, and by the end of...
Good! I know lots of people in my social circle who don't understand what updates are or what they do, and therefore never update any of their devices. This is an excellent move by MS.
Great preview. Can't wait for the main article to come out. I actually recently bought a Titan X based on the review of it here at HardOCP. I have everything maxed out except AA which is sitting at 2x at the moment.
It's easy to say Sony shouldn't have given in but the reality of the situation is that, they are already getting sued by former employees in regards to the leaks. The last thing they need on their hands is more leaks or potential acts of violence in the name of a really stupid movie.
Good News Everyone!! No but seriously....this is excellent news. Google has gotten extremely creepy over the past few years. They have gone from "Don't be evil" to "Do Lots of EVIL!!!"
I trust Apple & Microsoft more than I trust Google. Apple and Microsoft consider us as customers and are...
I have been running Windows 8.1 on my Desktop and on my MacBook for since launch. I recently decided to downgrade to windows 7 on my desktop just to see the differences. I have 3 RAID 1 arrays on my system and the windows 7 installed fucked up all of them to a point that I had to restore from...
I've used both Android and iOS devices and stock Android is extremely bloated in comparison to iOS. I've personally abandoned Android (and most Google services) because of Google's NSA like behavior. Kind of looking forward to what's going to happen with Windows phone though, now that Windows 10...
I used to think he was a cold hearted a**hole in the 1990's; but given his activities after he effectivly left Microsoft, I have nothing but admiration for him. He is actually a good human being.
I currently have close to 400 games on steam and I have yet to play 80% of them. I have them all installed on one of my 4TB RAID 1 arrays on my gaming rig. I keep buying them because they are a good deal, but I rarely get the time to play.
Having said all that, when I do get time to play, I...
As stated by others, valve has earned by trust where as EA has done everything to destroy my trust. Needless to say, I don't care what games they put up for free on their online store, there is no way I'm going to sign up with them. Besides, I already have Dead Space 1 and 2 on Steam.
