    Real-Time Ray Tracing Is Enabled in Battlefield V

    Meh, for the most part, I could not really tell the difference between this and "normal" rendering. The GAME looks pretty fun...but the eye candy? It's wasted. You aren't going to be paying attention to the explosions and reflections while playing, you are going to be focused on not getting...

    Real-Time Ray Tracing Is Enabled in Battlefield V

    Is that it? Really? Some shiny reflections (too shiny, too perfect)? For 60fps at 1080p on a $1200 graphics card? If this is the future, I am happy living in the past!

    Google Admits That Dark Mode Is Better for Battery Life on Android

    Would be NICE if they realized that a lot of users have OLED screens, which are subject to burn in, and made their apps appropriately....I have Google Maps permanently etched into my Samsung S8+ screen. Why can't they use pixel shifting or change up the location of buttons from time to time to...

    Activision: Destiny 2: Forsaken "Under-Performed," Core Player Base Hasn’t Reengaged

    At that price, I was happy to download it and play...but I don't see myself buying the Forsaken DLC. I am tired of chasing the carrot in this game...it's literally endless, and at a certain point (reached right before Taken King for me), it just becomes a chore rather than entertainment. When...

    The "AMD Compatible" RAM I purchased is actually HIGHER priced now by about $10 (on a 16GB set) than it was when I purchased it!

    Windows 10 Pro Has Amnesia and Wants You Buy a New Copy from the Windows Store

    Good to hear! I know Valve is pushing games on Linux and contributing a LOT to it's maturing as a platform for gamers...I would still love to see full SteamVR support under Linux before I switch though.

    Check Out the Delidded AMD Rome CPU

    I just built a Ryzen 2700x system...MY last AMD system was a K5! The new Ryzen chips are DAMN fast...you will be amazed if you are upgrading anything older than a year or two, REGARDLESS OF BRAND! The "Intel is better" crowd will tout 5Ghz and an extra 10-15fps at the most common resolutions...

    Windows 10 Pro Has Amnesia and Wants You Buy a New Copy from the Windows Store

    It's still not "there" yet...especially for VR. Like it or not, the target platform for game devs is Windows 10. You MIGHT get your favorite game to run under Linux (hope you have an AMD card!), but it's a lot more effort just to get the game running at all, let alone running at similar...

    Windows 10 Bug Allowed UWP Apps Full Access to File System

    Yup, I want as little to do with Microsoft and their crappy products as I possibly can. And a lot of others feel this way too...hence the failure of Windows Phone and the dismal sales of Xbox.

    Windows 10 Bug Allowed UWP Apps Full Access to File System

    You are, of course, free to believe whatever you wish, but the REALITY is that UWP is worthless in a world where MS only competes on the desktop. There is no mobile platform (other than Surface, which is full Windows 10), and their console business is dying. The few titles (like the subject of...

    It's completely irrelevant without Windows Phone, and the dying Xbox division rather emphasizes that as well.

    Windows 10 Bug Allowed UWP Apps Full Access to File System

    Xbox is a joke, and a failure. It's being outsold 3:1 right now by it's competition and is in 3rd place behind the PS4 and Switch...3rd in a 3 man race. Considering the hoops you have to jump through to even get these games to RUN on a PC, and considering the vulnerabilities that using said...

    Fallout 76 Will be Up "Forever"

    The beta runs like complete crap. I am hoping they fix the issue where the game physics is tied to the framerate...and support ultrawide resolutions natively, but I am not holding my breath. The game engine is horribly outdated and should NEVER have been considered for this game.

    Destiny 2 on Battle.net Is Free, for Keeps, until November 18

    Windows PC Version of Sunset Overdrive Receives a Mature Rating by ESRB

    Who really cares? This game was so overhyped, people in forums were referring to it as "Sunset Overhype". It was supposed to "save" the Xbox One back in the day...and barely made a dent in sales. The humor was juvenile, and while the gameplay was somewhat fresh, it was fairly repetitive...

    Apple Stops Reporting Unit Sales Amid Strong Earnings

    So when can we go back and have our phones average cost be $300-$400 again? I tire of paying $800+ every two years for a device that really isn't THAT much better than the old POS it's replacing!

    AMD Next Horizon Event Scheduled for November 6

    Industry standard raytracing is fine, proprietary BS that is supported on only one brand is not. However, I am more interested in performance with "standard" graphics, not in manufacturers sacrificing valuable die space for a feature that may not even get implemented by the majority of developers.

    ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 2080 Ti Video Card Review @ [H]

    Still think I am going to wait and see what AMD comes out with before upgrading...I keep hearing reports of 2080ti cards failing at a pretty high rate...not sure if this is just "Founders" cards or if others are affected, but will wait to see how it all shakes out.

    AMD Radeon Vega Mobile Is Coming to High Performance Premium Notebooks

    Um, because Vega mobile will compete with anything nVidia has in the mobile space? Nvidia isn't as dominant as you think, and they only have an advantage with their desktop products, and even then, only on two skus, the 1080ti and the 2080ti.

    AMD Chief Confirms New High-End GPU: "We Will Be Competitive in High-End Graphics"

    AMD is competitive until you get to the high end. They simply don't have a card to compete with the 1080ti, let alone the 2080ti...but unless you are looking for the highest end cards, AMD will serve you just fine. I have a Vega 64, and it's working VERY well with every game I throw at it at...

    Der8auer Delids 9900k and Investigates TIM

    Shadow of the Tomb Raider Is Getting Review Bombed on Steam Because It's on Sale

    And THIS, ladies and gentlemen, is why you never pre-order games, and never pay full price on a title UNLESS you specifically do it to support a smaller developer. Sales must have been in the toilet (huge surprise! TOTALLY unexpected! /s) for them to discount so heavily, so soon.
