Well glad I kept my GTX 1080ti. Two years and a die shrink that they tout as the first 7NM "Gaming GPU", AMD brings me nothing new to the table. It's a sad day that I have to look to Intel to give Nvidia any competition.
I have more than one PC. I usually employ a "trickle down" effect so I was hoping to place this 1080ti into my arcade PC(one of my arcade cabinets has a 4K display)
Jensen pretty much told the truth. I don't like the demeanor or tone but everything he said was pretty much how I felt. AMD releasing what is pretty much a 1080TI with more VRAM in 2019 at $700 is very underwhelming indeed. I was really pysched up this CES to make an upgrade from the 1080TI I...
The Xbox One controller is my favorite. I bought that white controller a year ago on sale for $30.
As for bias, I guess I expected too much from "the most powerful console" as certain games couldn't hold 60fps in "light" mode. Combine that with broken bluray and I'll just stick to PC.
Today I read that article and I figured I'd try it out. At first I thought it was probably just a settings issue. Unfortunately after an hour of messing with color spacing and bit depths, the hdr washing out is undefeatable. I made a video showing what happens.
Since then I've returned the...
Ok, just purchased the Asus Z370I from Amazon. Thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to miss the HDMI 2.0 and TB 3.0, but the Asus was my second choice.
Trying to decide between Asrock Fatal1ty and the Asus Z370I. Which would be best in this case? I do have a Samsung 960 EVO 1TB and plan on doing a slight overclock on the 8700K.
I'm going to be using that same Noctua cooler and I think you could get away in gaming with a slight overclock. I personally am probably going to run it at 4Ghz on all 6 cores. I'm considering disabling some cores(and hyperthreading) and going to 5ghz for emulation. If I couldn't get my hands on...
They sure sold like hotcakes, I've been charged so I'm pretty sure I'm getting mine. I had a backup plan of getting the 8700 since the turbo is only 100mhz off and it's a 65W TDP which is pretty nice being hex core. Anyway now to hunt down an ITX board!
Going from Ryzen 1700 to hopefully CoreI7 8700k as the 1700 just didn't do so well in the emulators I ran at 1080p or 4K. My GPU is the 1080TI so I guess that could be a bottleneck.
Just watched the LinusTechTips video and I must say this is really impressive. I'll definitely have to pick one of these up when they are available. I'm out in the US, will there be a american shop?
So far it's been pretty great. I haven't checked thermals, but I have done stress tests and passed easily. I do hear the fans rev up when I was running Furmark. The loudest fan is the Nvidia one by far. The Venturi fans are excellent, and the thermalright has me up 4.9Ghz at stock voltages. I...

It's a TN panel, but for $269.99 it's probably the least expensive G-Sync monitor out there. What I don't mention in the video is the stand, it's actually quite good and I would recommend this screen.

Here's a build of my latest rig. I sold my 4K machine because honestly SLI was cumbersome and pretty a waste of money for me. Since Street Fighter 5 runs pretty well on a single 980TI in 4K(post processing has to be set to medium). I went with a...
I see, do you have any links on this? I'd like to read more about it myself. I find that my games are becoming more and more VRAM limited. I'm trying to salvage as much VRAM as I can.
Been noticing that my VRAM usage is up to 700MB in 4K on Windows 8.1. If I disable DWM, it goes down to about 300MB, Unfortunately things act quite odd so it's not a simple fix like disabling Aero is.
Problem is I like to game @4K and Shadows of Mordor chokes up my 4GB of VRAM easily. Even...
I have an Asus PB298Q and I love it. IT's especally good for FPS and RTS games(Diablo3 comes to mind) with the extra wide view. Unfortunately with me getting a 4K TV(Vizio P70) it's kind of obsolete now.
