    AMD vs nVidia Colors - Concrete proof of differences

    I've owned every single generation of ATi/amd and Nvidia graphics cards since the 90s except Nvidia's 4000 series. It's been this way that ATI/amd had better Image quality/colors since the 5800ultra from Nvidia because they starting cutting corners on Image quality during this gen. Numerous...

    Tom Isn't As Lonely As We Thought

Myspace was a real social network that let you interact with people without more personally unlike Facebook that hides other user's status updates if they don't interact with you because they want to know who is...

    Need to replace my R9 290 in a pinch

    I have been running 2 290x in crossfire since launch.. Best Cards I've ever had got rid of my gtx 780tis back them that cost me a hell of a lot more. I have no reason to upgrade still.. Unless I want to buy the new Titan but it's a small gain.. and I'm not struggling playing games in 4k 10 bit...

    DOOM: Console vs. PC

    I play in 4k and to even think about comparing any game to a ps4 is just stupid. Doom has the best graphics I've seen in a LONG time. Uncharted 4 looks like a nice movie.

    Is Paying For Antivirus A Waste Of Money?

    My opinion, been building computers since 1996 and working in IT sine 2001 for LEVEL3 Communications. Yes, for personal use a Virus scanner is a waste of money plus a resource hog if you know how to protect your system. I have never used a virus scanner and I goes as far as disabling Windows...

    AMD Accuses NVIDIA's Gameworks Of Being 'Tragic' And 'Damaging'

    It's obvious they are hindering performance on all gous, have you paid attention to the performance of the gtx 780ti in game work games? It can't hang with the 290x. I hate gameworks.. Nvidia ' marketing is king, that is what they are good at. They can sell you a shit product and make it look...

    Fury X vs 980 TI - Reality

    Look at the performance of the GTX 780ti... remember when the 780ti beat the 290x? Look at the performance of the 290x vs the 780ti on a gameworks game.. I'll bet you anything once the drivers mature for the fury the 980ti and titan x will be left behind.

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti Video Card GPU Review @ [H]

    Nvidia vs Nvidia.. but the real truth is even for a 2013 product in 4k Amd isn't far behind with a single gpu. Now the 290x destroy all of them in price/performance then you have the bs about well.. you run into issues with dual cards.. but you can buy 2 titan x! Honestly there is no reason to...

    Reference 290 Fan Profiles/Curves

    man, I hate the reference 290's default fan algorithm. I actually either flash a Powercolor PCS+ bios to any reference 290 (this unlocks manual fan control in CC control panel) or just use MSI after burner for fan control.

    Graphics horsepower for 4K

    I seriously hate it when I see misinformation like this... Do you personally own a 295x? Crossfire is better scaling and there is no Microstutter when gaming in 4k. @ new games that just came out MKX & GTA 5 work flawlessly in 4k right now those are new games and seem to have a new crossfire...

    290x vs 970

    First off, if you are going to be playing games at at resolutions no higher than 1440p and of course no anti aliasing then go for the 970. If you want to run games with AA then go With the 290x. Thus heat, noise and power consumption is just a repeat from what reviewers said. If you have real...

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN X Video Card PREVIEW @ [H]

    I have a 3way crossfire setup and a 2 way sli setup.. They work great.. You really have to tune your system to lower latencies.. on my crossfire setup I have no Microstutter what's so ever.. freaking amazing in 4k. It literally feels like 1 gpu and games that don't support crossfire or sli there...

    ASUS ROG Poseidon GTX 980 Platinum vs. AMD R9 295X2 @ [H]

    AMD has totally dropped the ball recently in terms of Radeon driver and CrossFire profile support and that is inexcusable. The benefit of the ASUS ROG Poseidon GTX 980 is that its performance is delivered 100% of the time. Kind of funny.. As I don't have an issues with my 3 way 290x...

    Battlefield Hardline Video Card Performance Preview @ [H]

    for 5 frames for an extra $280, I will stick with my OLD 290x setup. I'm sure a driver update from AMD will fix the issue you are talking about with 2x crossfire. I didn't have that issue playing the beta but I am also running 3x 290x in crossfire.. it was smooth as hell in 3978x2238 4x AA...

    Introducing the new AMD Catalyst Omega Driver @ [H]

    I just wanted to note that I have successfully implemented down sampling up to resolution 3979x2238 with gpu scaling on my 290x crossfire setup months ago the only caveat is that it won't work properly in full screen exclusive on some games causing crossfire not to kick in because of the...

    Far Cry 4 Video Card Performance and IQ Preview @ [H]

    That's not true.. The display connector has nothing to do with how graphics are being rendered on a driver level and you can't capture hdmi, dvi and dp differnces on a screenshot. But I can capture driver level optimizations I will post some pics for sure.

    Microsoft Retiring Lync in Favor of Skype for Business
