    Microsoft Announces DX12 Support for Windows 7

    You can put the blame for DX10 and DX10.1 firmly at Nvidias feet. Their cards could NOT do the original DX10 spec and they begged/bribed MS to nerf the spec. And thus DX10 became a farce.

    Rocketing Ain't Easy

    Looked to me like there was a huge electrical arc to the rocket as it lifted off, followed by a fire onboard then the explosion.

    AMD Radeon HD 7970 Overclocking Performance Review @ [H]

    given Nvidias bitching about the 28nm process and "blaming" them for their issues. I HIGHLY doubt Kepler will be a) on time (its already slipped) and b) competitive. It seems PR ppl run Nvidia now and not the engineers. Which is a real shame cos it would provide some interesting competition...

    NVIDIA Fermi - GTX 470 - GTX 480 - GTX 480 SLI Review @ [H]

    Open Physics... or forget it. This propriatary crap needs to go. It makes it totally bloody pointless otherwise. Either do it right and allow it on both card ranges or devs wont code it. (except with cash bribes) And when they do... its oh wow.... paper blowing in wind. Joy. Physx = Pr = A...

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 480 Final Specs & Pricing Revealed

    I dont know about you... but anything over 1kw i dont want in my system. The whole point of smaller faster systems was to stop the omg power suckage. As was pointed out earlier in the thread, once you hit 1.2kw you are getting near the draw for a 15a household line. To be quite honest...
