Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
The way I see it Nvidia are like intel were just before ryzen dropped. Lazy and milking their customers for small generational gains. Hopefully AMD can, with their Navi architecture, produce some serious competition and start a new arms race. Even if you want to buy an intel cpu today you're...
Just bought the non RGB version of this for 55 euros from Amazon Spain shipped. Hopefully, it will allow me a bit more tinkering fun on my R5 2600 cos that thing gets toasty really quickly on the Wraith Stealth.
I just wanted to drop in and congratulate Kyle for his sterling work on this. This is what proper journalism is about, bringing the truth to light no matter what the consequences. The fact that Nvidia think they can get away with this crap is worrying itself, they know they are in an utterly...

One thing that has me worried is the comparison test are both for workloads that scale near perfectly with clock and core count. Rendering and video recompression are to paraphrase are ridiculously parallel work loads. Realtime gaming isn't and counts more on other things that just brute force...
The thing is the blender result isn't a benchmark is it, it's a demo. It's not a standardised test , any 3D rendered can be tweaked to a near infinite levels, passes, ray reflection limits etc. I used to work in animation industry and tweaking settings can change image quality and render time...
Loads of good games came out this year. Far cry 3 , Dishonoured, Halo 4, XCOM enemy unknown ettc.
Thing is console gamers are piss bored of their machines,and need a generation jump to kick start the market. 7 years is way too long for a generation, apart from the obvious titles I have switched...
You have to remember that the gpu in the original 360 was a revolutionary bit of kit.
I would be very surprised if MS accepted an off the shelf design.
They will want something that moves the game foward, i would also be surprised if sony wanted something bog standard. They only did last time...
