    Rumor: Xbox One Getting New Polaris-Based GPU

    No a console. No need for drivers and no unofficial upgrade possibility. Just pop the module and insert the new one. Just like nintendo did in the NES and SNES days with helper chips delivered in the game cartridge, but instead of coming with the game they are sold as stand alone module. Say...

    Rumor: Xbox One Getting New Polaris-Based GPU

    Here's an idea microsoft... Build a modular console where component can be easily replaced/upgraded. Then no need to design a new console from scratch every five to seven year, you only have to release updated components that are compatible with the console/hub. With console being connected to...

    Why PCs Are "Failing"

    In Canada, a GTX970 cost between $425 and $500 before tax. That is $100 to $200 more than a console by itself. If you factor the rest of the components you end up with a machine that cost two to three times or more the cost of a console. Yes the games are better looking on a PC if you spend...

    Why PCs Are "Failing"

    But you have to admit that the cost of entry on PC is way more than for a console. Your example of Arma is a good example of that. It would cost more than the price of a console to buy a GPU able to run it optimaly without adding the cost of the rest of the PC and that is for only one game...

    Why PCs Are "Failing"

    With this economy it's hard to justify spending $500 every time a new GPU generation pops up. It makes better sense to buy a console for that price and play games that are optimized for it instead. I blame the duopoly of AMD and NVidia for this. Without more player on the field they are keeping...

    Apple iOS 9.1 Problem Causes Serious Alarm

    Would never affect me... I never needed an alarm to wake me up. I'm one of those person who when I go to sleep with the knowledge that I have to get up at a set time in the morning, I automatically wake up 5 minutes before that time. I've never been late in my life.

    Vinyl Records Generated More Money Than Free Streaming Music

    Funny enough, the main reason I buy vinyl is because of the packaging. For me music is music independent of the format, but vinyl gatefold are much more pleasent to look at and read than a small print CD liner. Also, plenty of old time music never made it to CD or digital and I do like many of...

    XFX R9 390X Review

    Even Amazon.ca sell them for a higher price than that and so does Newegg.ca. In any case I don't buy online having been fleeced too many time. Microbytes sells the 390x in the $600 range. So my point stand, the 390x is an overpriced underperforming video card. Its only redeeming attribute is the...
