    "Forgettable, Repetitive": Early Reviews Aren't Kind on Anthem

    The problem isn't the game. The game itself has a lot to offer and is quite enjoyable. The issue is the min maxxer players who want the least amount of work for the max amount of attention. Is no longer about the game,even the quality. The reviews are done in the merit of idiotic choices that...

    PSA: Anthem's Open Demo Is Live until Tomorrow

    I got it with my 2060, runs fairly well but reflections really spread the legs and give it a good old kick in the junk. But overall it's quite entertaining :) Anyone run it on a 2070/2080 in 1440p ? How's the performance?

    Battlefield V NVIDIA Ray Tracing RTX 2060 Performance @ [H]

    I'm betting they did, but the programming for it is complex and NVidia wanted their new cards out the door while the GPU mining was hot. The premium prices reflect this, unfortunately the RTX performanceand support does not.

    Battlefield V NVIDIA Ray Tracing RTX 2060 Performance @ [H]

    At this point in time if feels more like lazy game devs depending on the horsepower of new cards over how NVidia or AMD builds them. Use the PS4 for instance, I'll point to Horizon : Zero Dawn. It looks amazing and plays amazing, something that took more than a few players off guard.This game...

    NVIDIA Stock Tanks 15% as the Company Cuts Q4 2019 Financial Guidance

    NVidia did it to themselves. Pure and simple they grew fat off of the Cryptomining wars of 2017-2018 and never realized that it ended. They've kept their heads ensconced firmly into their own anuses like a rectal ostrich when it comes to the rise and fall of crypto mining. They thought that the...

    Anthem Demo a "Clusterf*ck": Connection Errors, Loading Issues, and More

    The game is being demo'd on alpha release versions. They are 3 or 4 huge builds ahead internally.This is more of a stability run than a demo. Anyone that thinks different needs to shake their head. On PS4 is runs like wet chilled shit. Looks like it's running on a 760Ti. But it's an alpha...

    Need some advice about 1440p gaming with RTX2060

    Here's my recent anecdote with Tomb Raider, Dragon Quest IX and Fortnite. Had an older i5 with my 980 and attempted 1440p for a lark. It went bad, not at all playable unless everything was pretty well low/medium. Stuck in the Asus Strix Vega 56 I had ordered and was able to achieve 1440p but...

    Sold a 1080Ti on ebay 55 days ago...

    Depending on the price he paid for it and his pc setup it may be overkill by a fair margin. Most people believe that tossing in a new gpu will make their pc a monster while they are still using an old cpu and 8 gigs of ram. Sounds like a scam to me. Guy has buyers regret and wants his money back.

    Sold a 1080Ti on ebay 55 days ago...

    I agree but I have a feeling that Nvidia is holding back in their drivers for the simple reason that they still have stock to get rid of,not to mention compete with AMD. As is the 2060 comes pretty close at a semi attractive price

    Sold a 1080Ti on ebay 55 days ago...

    I see what's happening : He paid for the 1080Ti, saw the 2060 come out for a good price and it's crazy performance. He wants to get a new 2060, plain and simple.

    I'm looking at buying an RTX 2070, it comes with Anthem or BF. Can I gift it to my son who doesn't use a RTX? Or can these be sold?

    RTX 2060 When should we expect a sale?

    I noticed that within a week or so of release the 2070 was on sale on some sites for about $50 off. Is this a trend among card retailers? Should we expect a 2060 version to be on sale in the coming weeks, especially with NVIDIA trying to show up AMD?

    2019 Best value card as of today

    Im not asking for a card for myself, the original questions had to do with what you considered makes a decision on whether a card was a value or not, and what you'd consider a modern value card as of today.

    NVIDIA shop prices (Canada)?

    I've been looking at buying a new video card and as we all know Canadian prices are a home. A scary joke. I went to the nvidia store for a look after picking Canada as my country and the prices don't look all too bad. What I'm wondering is if the store is pricing those cards in American prices...

    980 SLI to 2070

    Recent reviews have shown the new drivers boosting the 2070 well above the 1080ti. Don't live in a fantasy, DLSS and RTX are only going to get better, even if not enabled you still will have the second fastest card currently available

    Here are AMD's Radeon VII Benchmarks

    I'm looking at the cheapest regular priced Vega 64 on NewEgg, not even looking around for sales. Vega 64 : $399. Radeon 7 : $699 2080 : $699 So 30% increase in performance as of right now for $300 more. Overclocked a bit and tweaked the Vega 64 performance has been shown to really increase...

    Here Is the Official "AMD Radeon VII: World's First 7nm Gaming GPU" Reveal Trailer

    I'm guessing that Nvidia is going to compete by using the 2070 instead of the 2080. I'm betting we see sales on the 2070 then a permanent price decrease. When it's on sale is already an attractive card, if Nvidia plays smart they'll lower the cost to gain the mainstream buyers confidence again...

    Here Is the Official "AMD Radeon VII: World's First 7nm Gaming GPU" Reveal Trailer

    So let me get this straight : The took what was essentially the Vega 64, put it through the 7nm process bumped up the speed, doubled the memory, added no new technology to compete with the 2080 goods and it costs almost 2x as much as the current Vega 64, currently the same as the 2080 cards we...

    Nvidia Announces the RTX 2060

    I honestly an wondering if nvidia is using the same chip as the 2070 but a lower quality and flashed with a different bios, not to mention ram. I wonder how long until a company puts 8gigs of 256 bit memory on one. I'm betting it won't be too long. To be honest this card sounds like it was...

    6GB RTX 2060 Spotted at Canadian Retailer

    I think AMD will be smart about it with their prices. Right now NVidia is pricing at the max range people are willing to pay for performance. The mining boom caused this mess and NVidia still believes that they are sitting in the middle of a profit madhouse while the rest of reality noticed that...

    6GB RTX 2060 Spotted at Canadian Retailer

    After years of being on the [H] I finally made a post that made the front page! Yeah boy! Canada Computers is always priced way high by the way, I imagine in the real world we will see prices in the $425-475 range (CAD) for these cards. I can see sale prices for $300 (+/- $50) quite easily.

    Need advice to keep from making more bad decisions

    HDMI, DP and DVI. I extinguished my options. At this point I've found that the motherboard seems to be problematic. When the CPU sees any decent amount of usage it's pretty well cutting off the video card performance wise. I have no idea why this is. I've since RMA'd the motherboard to NewEgg...
