    AdoredTV Covers the History of Intel Cheating on Benchmarks

    AMD's game mode enables Legacy Compatibility toggle, it is in the tweaking tool, and they provide info on what it does. However, no reviewer worth their salt when doing a fair and stock comparison would go and install a tweaking utility and tweak the CPUs to operate outside of spec for one...

    AdoredTV Covers the History of Intel Cheating on Benchmarks

    Tech enthusiasts who follow this stuff for a long time have always been talking about all the shady bullshit that Intel and NVIDIA does. Remember The Way It's Meant To Be Played? Yeah, that's NVIDIA forcing other GPUs to run code that they optimize with their own engineers at the studios. It's...

    NVIDIA Pulling Plug on GPP

    Don't believe NV PR for one second. They first denied there was branding exclusivity, yet in this latest blog to defend themselves, they said their goal was to make brands clear for GeForce vs the others. Liars. Now they say they scrapped the program? Really? Bullshit. This is a public...

    AMD 2nd Gen Ryzen 2 2700X Zen+ CPU Review @ [H]

    Anything beyond 1.4vcore on these Ryzens need water cooling. Typical air, wouldn't go above 1.4 to be safe. This refresh is decent, well priced, great stock cooler, hard to argue on that. Though not a huge leap, waiting for 7nm stuff, 14nm is getting way old now.

    First Rule of GPP: Don't Talk About GPP

    It's obvious what is happening when you read the Computerbase article and the interview with Gigabyte. They asked why the gaming brand is no longer with the Radeon cards, and Gigabyte says "it's not focused for gaming/gamers"... This is clear as day that NV's arm twisting has taken effect...

    AMD 2018 Roll Out Schedule

    Ryzen+ is gonna be game changing, since Intel has given consumers cheaper 6c/12t with CL. It defeated the purpose of Ryzen being affordable high core count CPUs, and now Intel still have an edge in low thread workloads due to their clock speeds. Ryzen+ is basically AMD being more competitive...

    GeForce Partner Program Impacts Consumer Choice

    No shock here at all that NV is yet again, being anti-consumer. GPP is for hardware vendors what GameWorks is to software studios. Work with NV to implement their middleware binary DLLs into games, at the exclusion of working with other hardware vendors, and receive benefits such as...

    AMD ReLive versus NVIDIA ShadowPlay Performance

    No mention of the data logging that runs in the background for GFE? Telemetry of gameplay data & habits, sent straight to NVIDIA. Under their privacy EULA clause, they are allowed to share all of the collected data with their partners.

    AMD plans to release Vega refresh in 2018

    All of those points you raise have been discussed elsewhere on the tech sphere way before they materialized. I mean stuff like cut-down Vega, wtf do you think has been happening for the past 2 decades of GPU binning? LC Vega we saw ages ago in leak images, and after the Fury X, well, too easy...

    AMD plans to release Vega refresh in 2018

    Is this what it has come to? A random troll posting made up BS, as his own source, and we are supposed to take it seriously? This is a tech forum. You make bold claims without a source, you deserve to be BANNED.

    Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus Performance Review @ [H]

    The graphics quality is just stunning for the kind of performance you can get out of modest hardware, it's quite crazy how optimized idTech 6 engine is.

    New Intel Core Processor Combines High-Performance CPU with Custom Discrete Graphics from AMD

    The use case is all 15W notebooks will have a lot to gain from RR than sticking with Intel + HD-whatever-#, because Zen on low power leverage it's perf/w advantage for higher boost clocks. Without the clock speed advantage than Intel has on desktop, and a single CCX design, RR is superior to...

    New Intel Core Processor Combines High-Performance CPU with Custom Discrete Graphics from AMD

    Timeframe is important. This is a early 2018 product. There's no rush to market like RX Vega. HBM2 yields maturing as we speak. The Radeon chip supplied looks to be ~200mm2 so basically, a small chip, yields will be non-issue. Both companies would not commit for this to be a low volume product...

    New Intel Core Processor Combines High-Performance CPU with Custom Discrete Graphics from AMD

    I have to fully disagree with Semiaccurate here. Intel & AMD would not waste R&D budget on a low volume part. He's always got an axe to grind vs Intel and so it has clouded his judgement. This solution is going to replace all of the dGPU notebook designs in 2018, with only the very boutique...

    AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 Leaked Benchmarks: GTX 1070 Killer

    Remember, Ryzen didn't beat Intel either. 7700K still supreme. The 1080Ti will still be supreme, but once Vega is released, gamers will have more choices instead of auto defaulting to the 1070 and 1080. Heck, they may even ponder about going with a 1440p Freesync monitor instead of a GTX +...
