    The Internet Is A 'Gift From God'

    Not sure what the anticipated discussion from that article was supposed to be . . . no surprise this thread is now endless ridiculousness.

    Eizo Foris FG2421: 120hz VA Panel

    there is NO interpolation with this monitor. 120hz input has each frame doubled with an added effect that seems similar to nvidia's lightboost for decreased motion blur. Think about it: interpolation for static content is one thing because the system can look ahead at the next frame and put...

    Variable Refresh Rate Monitors (G-Sync) --- Refresh Rate Varies While You Play!!!

    And where did all this endless talk of "them" releasing different "tiers' of steamboxes? When valve talked about hardware that would be "good, better, or best" I don't think we were their target audience. Are you going to go to the store, look at the box, and determine your purchase based on...

    Variable Refresh Rate Monitors (G-Sync) --- Refresh Rate Varies While You Play!!!

    Is steamos suddenly going to overcome consoles? Of course not. But saying that it "won't entice anymore effort into the Linux gaming scene than what's already going on now" seems a bit naive (or purposefully overdramatic).

    Funny Article: AMD declares all out war on Nvidia

    I would say that advertising a card at a certain frequency but that frequency is frequently throttled down by regular use is not the best way to win people over. I am 100% for amd and nvidia making the biggest, hottest, most powerful chips they can . . . as long as they can COOL them...

    Upgrade power supply and SLI or wait for Maxwell?

    i'd wait for maxwell tbh. chips on smaller nodes 'tend' to yield bigger performance differences. not absolute but a good rule of thumb.

    New Build? Suggestions? DDR4?

    Starcraft 2 and a lot of MMO's are some of the exceptions that are more processor dependent than a lot of other games. Just FYI. I still reckon 4670k is best bang for buck gaming. With a 2560x1600 monitor and 7970 why on earth would you try and save a few bucks on a POS CPU you will...

    Out of the loop intel wise

    No, it's not. First off, ivy bridge has integrated graphics, so does sandy bridge. Any intel chip anyone here would have any interest in buying for the last several years on the mainstream socket (so excluding lga 2011 and it's predecessors) has some form of integrated graphics. Yes, this...

    What is the best value HTPC today?

    if bit-streaming HD audio is a must then yes raspberry pi is out. otherwise, I'm not sure what other significant issues are. i've customized my skin and hooked it up with an ir receiver and use my regular remote and it is just as responsive as using the remote for the cable box or bluray...

    Valve: AMD-based Steam Machines are also en route

    I think a lot of people are still confused as to what a steambox is (which is probably valve's fault). A steambox is ANY computer which runs steamOS. Yes, there will be plenty of vendors who will sell official "steamboxes" with the valve logo, but guess what . . . the hardware will be no...

    Gigabyte adds AMD version of BRIX barbone PC

    Eh, i am much more interested in the slightly larger brix form factor that they are showing off with the iris pro intel chip. The box is only a little taller but it seems like it would have so much more potential. I would love to see a desktop kaveri based system in a similar form factor as...

    Why Titan is bad news for GPU enthusiasts

    Meh . . . Titan is just a matter of supply and demand. Green team has been sending so many of the chips out for super computers that I frankly think it doesn't care about creating a robust supply for regular pc users. The only reason it probably is on the market is so they can scream about...
