I already talked about single-cycle multiply-accumulate. Read the whole post next time. It's an operation mostly used by GPUs, but you can find some simulation that can use it as well - but I wouldn't automatically assume it's necessary for a...

I just don't care about Switch emulation. None of the exclusives are at all exciting! And as for it being an on-the-go Steam Port player, I can already play Steam games on-the-go with Steamlink on my phone. The only person I know who might...

Did you try my suggestion yet? I'm not kidding when I said I will put the system to sleep even while gaming. I just played a game on Steam, left the audio on, and walked away for ten minutes. when I came back, the computer was Asleep, with no...

Well before I punch a hole in my apartment and get sued any other software options?

Since the C9 apparently supported 100Hz input without issue, I don't suppose you'd be able to confirm/refute if dropping down to 100Hz at 4k frees up enough bandwidth to do 10bit HDR? (this may require creating a custom resolution) With TVs...

If you're running a 60hz Freesync monitor, it desn't have enough Freesuync Range to be usable under Gsync Compatible. If you're that bothered by the tearing, might I suggest that you turn on FastSync? It's lower input lag than Vsync, and will...

I believe Freesync monitor needs to support a VRR range of 2 to 1 (so 30-60hz or 60-120hz) or probably higher (my Freesync monitor is 48-144 and works great as G-sync compatible monitor) to be G-Sync compatible. The U28590 is something like...

I'm not surprised. AMD knew Tiger Lake was coming later this year, so they customised that Vega APU to be around 50% faster than Ice Lake. It wouldn't surprise me if 96 units / 64 units = 1.5x speedup. More importunately, there's nothing...

Increasing density costs $... Ask AMD, it's not like it used to be @ 32nm to be able to get more chips per water and lower the cost. The wafer quality has to be higher, the process is a lot more costly, so even though the chips are more dense...

Right, and it's harder to shrink a capacitor (and still maintain any charge longevity). You also can't 3d-stack the silicon structure like flash. They're already running the largest wafers feasible. There's just no easy way to make DRAM any...

Man, and here I thought the Xbox vs Playstation arguments were petty. My 3700X is my first AMD CPU in over 10 years. Works fantastic and is remarkable for a CPU with only a 65w TDP and a sub $300 price tag. People should be happy that AMD is...

Fully agree with this. When one can only see the bad in the opposition, and nothing but the good in their own camp, they go from being supporters of proven technology, to cultists of a brand.

So, you're saying that Zen hasn't been out three years? Funny about that, I bought an 1800x on launch day in 2017, pretty sure it was three years ago. Zen 2 is drastically different than Zen/Zen+, but unless you're saying that once the latest...

The answer is always "Yes", this is [H] after all. But to answer seriously, increase density should in theory bring down pricing of ram, so while average consumer may not need more ram, it may benefit it from a pricing standpoint sans price...

In dunno man, I've had Windows 10 turn on a screensaver during a fullscreen game on my HTPC (It's an OLED TV, so I use black screensaver.) All I have to do is put down the controls to use the bathroom, and screen goes black (and game is...

I experienced this with my latest USB 2.5" 2TB drive from WD. Write speeds were under half what the previous drive could handle, but I put up with it because it's used for cold storage. I'm going to be pretty pissed when my always-on media...

Hahahaha (I'm not being sarcastic that was funny)

Upgraded all three home pcs last night, no issues. And as-is typical, my company will delay it rollout until tomorrow (for validation)

Like I said, I havn't played it. I'm just assuming they're ripping off Titanfall just like everyone else.

After the success of Titanfall/Apex Legends, everything has to copy it. That includes Borderlands 3 (functional duck and slide, plus a dedicated climb). Jedi: Fallen Order is just TitanFall 2, mechless, in third-person (but that's to be...
