    AMD Wraith Prism CPU Air Cooler Review @ [H]

    Nice review, I just put a work system together using this heat sink and the temps and noise are fine (but not much overclocking =( ). One thing I was wondering is how does this Cooler compare to other Cheap heat-sinks like the Cooler Master Hyper 212 series using this test method ( heck I...

    Intel Set to Fall Further Behind TSMC

    One would think that Intel would already be working on the other Xnm sizes. So the problems they are having with the 10nm process hopefully will not affect them much with the smaller sizes down the road. ... They just may not be able to recoup the $$$ spent on the the 10nm.

    Ultra HD Forum Releases New UHD Guidelines

    Then you have the OTA broadcasters around here that like to take what was 1 Major network (or channel), split it to 3 1080I/720p streams (CBS, FOX, CW) + a 480i weather radar off the same transmitter ..... I think the original specs called for 1 1080i or 720p and a max of 3 480i/p streams...

    Just a thought, how much did overclocking the ram help performance? If not much would Under-clocking the ram allow you to get more out of the GPU?... and more fps overall

    Dumbass Move of the Day

    We had a Dell I7 system here a few years ago with the Protective cap still on the heat sink, The system ran for 4 years like that before we had it in here to work on it and noticed the fan ramping up all the time. .. At least whoever put it together had paste on both sides of the plastic.

    AMD Introduces Mantle At GPU 14

    I have been around this stuff since the Rendition Rredline (Speedy3d) and 3dfx Glide days, nothing was more frustrating than having one card and needing another card just to run the 3d version of the game. If RED allows the API to be open and Green supports it, I am all for another API. But if...
