I doubt Amazon will eat their profit margin... I can see them doing something like not selling another Nvidia card if Nvidia doesn't provide the difference. Nvidia will treat Amazon different than it treats a person trying to get a refund.

4K is not going mainstream any time soon. I just have to throw this in there when I see people mention 4K because I don't know where people get this information from. Dish, directv, cable providers, and streaming don't have the bandwidth, and bluray doesn't have the disc capacity to do 4K...

I hope these are still not around in 10 years. Actually with sony breaking even on them already at launch the life cycle this time around will hopefully be shorter.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ troll video and not even funny. Don't waste your time.

nvidia is only pricing the titan at 1000 bucks because they could. This is why competition is important. It's too bad AMD's CPU division couldn't be doing as well as their graphics division to give intel reason to push the newer hardware out there faster.

I don't actually remember what hardware I had from years ago... something like this.. Pentium 3 600mhz Pentium 4 1.6ghz Pentium 4 3.4ghz Opteron something or other by AMD (underwhelming, should have waited for core 2 duo) Core 2 duo E6600 Core 2 quad Q6600 2600k next chip will be haswell-e...

I say wait for the PS4 version.. the game will probably be a launch title, and they will launch it for PC around this time frame as well.

Fact of the matter is there's no practical benefit to the average person to have 4K resolution on their LCD TV's unless they are sitting 4 feet away from the set. At a typical 6-8 foot viewing distance there just isn't the difference to be seen unless you have greater than 20/20 vision (and I'm...

The Wii created the most memorable original games that are a blast to emulate on a high end PC and play using Dolphin with an actual Wiimote. For that reason... kudos to the Wii. PC for the win however.

4K is not taking over. There is marginal benefit to it's use over 1080p in the majority of applications. To even be of use in home theatre would require monster screen sizes, forget the fact that cable and satellite companies can't even provide the bandwidth to do 1080p on all the channels...

Sony had to do it that generation, because there's a good chance HD-DVD might have won that format war had sony not included the bluray player in the PS3. Including this bluray player, which was initially a big expense on their part, assured that bluray would take the format war. I'm glad...

My gripe with GTA IV was how easy it was to get wanted by the cops, how difficult it was to lose the cops, how there was no open space, the long load times on the PS3 which made me give it up almost immediately, the draconian DRM inclluded with the release that required some online account to...

If I was sony I would have fixed this by charging $600 for the system the first 2-4 weeks, $500 the next 2-4 weeks, and $400 after that. To hell with the reseller parasites, giving extra money to ebay, paypal, the post office, etc. I'd rather see the money go to sony than slickdeals resellers...

I placed an order June 14th and just checked the order and it now says "Playstation 4 launch day edition" with an estimated delivery date of January 3, 2014. They now have other launch bundles that include games listed on the website. I hope they have more than enough for everyone, so the ebay...

I call BS on the $500 PC argument. Who builds a $500 PC anyways? The video card alone for anyone with half a brain building a PC is going to cost around $275. Processor for me would cost $250-300, if I build a PC I'm not skimping on the components. My 2600k built the week of launch is still...

gta4.. disliked the whole 'cell phone' thing, how easily cops detected the player, the dense city atmosphere (no countryside) and it seemed like a step back in some ways from san andreas. Also, the tedious online regisration to save, and it seemed to take forever to load anything... which lead...

way too many pictures on this page, I'll wait until page 30. I used 'texture pack combiner' as a base to update most of the textures in the game, then went from there installing whatever textures I needed.

it's fine for 4 bucks, but it's about as rewarding as far cry 2, if not less so.. at least there you upgrade your weapons and get to keep them for the entire game... I don't like how fast enemies respawn in dead island 2 so you go back through the same areas to kill the same foes a minute...

sorry but a good gaming PC will cost more than 500 bucks... but it won't cost $2500 either. Count on a good $300 alone for a Geforce GTX 670... or $400 to get one with 4GB ram. Get one with a good aftermarket cooler, I bought this one when it was $378 with $40 rebate...

these companies would like nothing more than to be able to prevent friends from borrowing each other copies of a console game and making each person buy a copy for their own console, that's what it comes down too.. they smell blood and are going after it... just like the RIAA and MPAA do with...

well it seems like a big step up from what we've had for what seems like forever....hopefully it's enough to bring graphics to the next level, since we seem to have been stuck at crysis level graphics (or worse) for a long time now.. hard to get excited about some of the rehashed stuff...

nice, except none of these DS games scale to high resolutions very well. I hope they make a version for the wii or wii u... hard for me to get excited about low res DS games. Like most modern zeldas looks like it will be too easy as well.. they should include a hard mode where enemies do twice...

I enjoyed 10 and other than the Yuna and Tidus laughing scene never really noticed the bad voice acting that he criticizes so much, but noticed right away some of the voice acting deficiencies in Skyrim as an example. Also I can think of numerous examples in television where awkward or out of...

skyrim new vegas san andreas

they really don't get it. There's no way they will ever completely defeat pirating, all they will do is piss off paying customers. They just don't get it... Like taking away quicksave, they just completely have their heads up their asses.

I don't understand why games are made with save systems that everybody hates.. when I see there is no quicksave I don't even bother buying a game until steam has it on sale for under 5 dollars.. this is another game that gets shelved for a year or two until it's in the bargain bin because they...

games like this are why I rarely purchase a game on launch day, the last one I did was skyrim. They should be ashamed of themselves of creating another farmville and trying to charge 60 bucks for it. Some of these developers/publishers are really starting to get too cocky for their own good in...

he sounded fine until his last statement, which made him sound like a snobby prick. I do think people are blowing it out of proportion, that getting all mad because the server went down for that new game you bought and 'gasp' you can't play for 24 hours... get over it... but this guy makes me...

I had a SSD so it doesn't make any noises. Ignore it. It doesn't matter if it runs fine.

the real question is if they'd sell double or more of them at $500-600 as they would at $1000. I would have bought one instead of the 670 I just ordered today. I would have paid up to $600 for one, this coming from someone who's never spent over $250 on a card in his life.

Depends on whether your 1440x900 monitor is 120hz or not and if you plan to play in 3D and/or use Lightboost with it. Can it run Crysis?

Three of my favorite games are Skyrim, New Vegas, and San Andreas.. all 3 had that 'formula' I like.. ability to wander, interesting storyline, varied quests, and multiple ways to finish the game, especially in the case of New Vegas. They all also have ways to power up early on and take on the...

after looking at the reviews, seeing that there's a galaxy rep here on the forum, seeing the good temps with the good cooler and the 680PCB the card uses, the relatively low price, the excellent default core clock overclock, and the fact that these in game credits seem to be garnering some cash...

save up for the 660 if you can.. look on the deals websites. Better bang for the buck.

I agree. People who worry about 4K when we don't even have the bandwidth to do 1080p properly, same thing... 4K is not going to be in consumer grade equipment at a reasonable price for a decade or more.. only the rich need access to such resolutions and they will pay for the privilege. There's...

does it have a bookmarks sidebar yet? No? I thought so. Pass.

I have 1920x1200 and it suits me. Don't want to have to spend $800 on video cards and/or lower settings to get a decent framerate. If you sit more than 32 inches, or two feet, 8 inches, away from your monitor, the human eye cannot distinguish the difference between 1440p in a 27 inch 16:9...

I remember when the game 'startropics' had a code in it you needed to enter, but I had thrown away the instruction book, where the code was written, and had to call up a hotline to get the code.. I don't think it was a 900 number, I don't remember. I do remember the guy stalling for time, as if...

I don't see the problem here if the seller gets the cards as stated and diverts them to the buyer's address. The seller said they would ship the cards one business day after payment. If you pay with credit card you have nothing to worry about. I don't think the seller deserves the harsh...

agreed with all these points.. should have kept the wii-mote and focused on more powerful hardware. I'm not saying we need another PS/Xbox clone but they should have put the added cost into the hardware, not tablets. If people want a tablet they'll buy a full featured one. The selling point of...
