    GTX 980 May Lose The Performance Crown To AMD’s R9 380X in February 2015

    They didn't compete with Titan because they couldn't. nVidia only priced the Titan like this because they lack competition. Reminds me uncomfortably of their years of monopoly between 3dfx's death and ATI's rise, when they released the spec bumpy GeForce 2 Ultra and shattered price records in...

    GTX 980 May Lose The Performance Crown To AMD’s R9 380X in February 2015

    Bullshit yourself. AMD was already 6 months behind Titan. That was a year ago! Now nVidia has upped the ante with Maxwell, increasing performance reasonably while lowering power like a boss. But all AMD can do is announce a card for four months from now, a card that will probably just match...

    GTX 980 May Lose The Performance Crown To AMD’s R9 380X in February 2015

    Agreed. nVidia has released a great product in the 980 and all AMD can do is swear to a competitive card in four months or more. Not good. nVidia has been allowed to keep card prices high for too long. Remember when the 5850 walked all over Team Green and nVidia released their biggest...

    Nexus 6 speculation

    At 5.5" and above you have - Samsung Galaxy Note 4 - LG G3 - iPhone 6 Plus - Huawei Ascend Mate 7 - OnePlus One - Nokia Lumia 1520 It's not the mainstream market, yet, but Google does not intend the Nexus to be the mainstream device. The Nexus line is intended for developers, so...

    SLI 980GTX or Titan Black

    Why would console ports be optimized for 6 GB of vram? AFAIK, both consoles offer games a total of 5 GB of memory and that has to be shared by GPU and CPU. I don't think one wants to dedictate more than half to the GPU. So most console games will probably be under 2.5 GB vram to render Full...

    Biggest pet peeve with modern mice?

    Horrible software. You can say that goes for (almost?) all hardware and its associated software. Whether it's an Asus mainboard, an MSI graphics card or a Razer mouse, the software that ships with them is invariably bad. Designed for/by 12-year-olds. Wasted space for "cool designs"...

    Shadow or Mordor To Require 6GB of VRAM @ 1080p for Ultra Textures

    I've always thought that games should offer settings that cannot be run by current gen hardware. This may give me one more incentive to revisit the game a couple of years down the road. Seeing how great Skyrim can look with all the mods (though they can't help the god-awful animations) on modern...

    The Future of Mini ITX?

    Well, you wrote: "a Enthusiast PC user always have the best of the best available in the market." Since when is the best of the best cheap? Somebody may not be able to afford even a GTX 760. They might game on an old 560 Ti. Can still be an enthusiast though. One sign of an enthusiast would be...

    The Future of Mini ITX?

    Ah, so only rich people can be enthusiasts - got it! Fortunately you don't get to decide who's an enthusiast. You know, one can be a car enthusiast and only be interested in Electric Vehicles. There are people in the SFF-subforum trying to cram high performance gaming machines into cases...

    Nexus 6 speculation

    I would bet against this being the Nexus 6, simply for the fact that none of its predecessors looked like the device they were built upon. Nexus S didn't look like the Galaxy S, Nexus 4 didn't look like the Optimus G, Nexus 5 didn't look like the G2. I don't see Google just using Motorola's...

    Nexus 6 speculation

    First iPhone 6 Sold In Australia Dropped On Live TV

    How douchy is that news lady?! First off, it's not really news to put the camera on whoever buys the first iPhone in Australia. But it's REALLY not news to show a clip of another person's misfortune just for laughs!

    Nexus 6 speculation

    Google has sort of done it before with the Nexus 4. That phone was a steal. The OnePlus One has a 3100 mAh battery, 3 GB RAM, an 805 Krait and a decent 13 MP camera. For under 400 bucks. So it certainly is doable. The Nexus line has historically been weak on camera and battery. But in...

    New Gaming PC

    Is there a reason you're choosing these giant full towers when all you have is 1 hdd and 1 graphics card? Windows 8 has some (minor/major ... depends on your taste) annoyances in the form of the Start Screen and the Charms Bar. However, one little free app called "StartIsBack" changes all...

    I don't see any advantage of this case over two seperate cases put next to each other.
