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

    Yeah. I don't understand why people are thrilled with the leaked specs of a 980Ti - I understand it will cost less in the short term but in the long term... 6GB is becoming the norm if you want things to run smoothly. In another 2 years or less it could be a requirement. Personally I don't like...

    Titan X 24GB RAM requirement

    My EVGA Titan X Superclocked has been smooth as ice on 16GB. You will only need the 24GB+ for a memory swap and there are not any games taking advantage of more than 12GB GDDR5 yet...but this amount of usage will not be common place for maybe another 2 to 3 years down the road. (Curious to...

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

    We're still a long ways off for this card let a lone Pascal. The Titan X JUST came out - can't we at least enjoy it and let it have its limelight for a bit first? In related news I just got my EVGA GTX Titan X Superclocked from newegg today - won't have time to play with it until this weekend...

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

    Completely agree 1000% - the PSU it seems to me sooo over looked in a system and it's like the heart of a computer setup - if you don't have a good ticker you have a good chance of flatlining.

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

    I can only hope so - there's conflicting information out there - would save me $150 from having to buy another 16GB of RAM :D

    Oh and so it looks like I'm buying another 16GB of Ram for when I buy one of these bad boys!

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

    Actually if you read the forums listed here: http://forums.evga.com/System-Requirements-for-Titan-X-m2310062.aspx#2310149 The manual is misprinted and the website from Nvidia is accurate. This is supposedly confirmed by the EVGA tech guy who said this is directly from Nvidia. That being said...

    What would the possible performance be on a 980 Ti

    It's just speculation...but search google for nvidia+20nm or even 16nm and see what comes up. Where there is smoke there is usually a fire. Example: http://www.tomshardware.com/news/tsmc-apple-nvidia-denver-finfet,27538.html Again, just speculation, but it's got me thinking it could be a...

    What would the possible performance be on a 980 Ti

    My thoughts are: Jan/Feb 2015 -> Titan 2....4000 cores...possible 20nm shrink Q3/Q4 2015 -> Maxwell refresh Geforce XXX... 16nm shrink H2 2016 ->16nm Pascal

    MSI Z77A-GD65 LGA1155 Motherboard Review @ [H]

    Is Nvidia/Ati launching a video card better than the 280 anytime soon?

    The nVidia "counterpart" to the 4870X2 will be a 55nm 280 GX2 coming out in August...which will have a performance boost...not a "big" boost...just enough to take the performance crown again. Then in Q1 2009 we will get a 380GTX 55nm, 256 Bit bus, GDDR5, with DirectX 10.1 support. At least...

    Top Games Flying Under The Radar This Fall?

    I'm not sure Deus Ex 3 will be any good without Warren Spector involved in the project either. However, I highly doubt they can make a game worse than Deus Ex 2, so here's hoping they pull it off. By the way doesn't the title say games flying under the radar of "this fall"? Deus Ex 3 won't be...

    2008 FTW!

    You should look into The Witcher, Crysis, HL2: Orange Box, Unreal Tournament 3, and Assassins Creed...all coming out in Q4 of this year and all look amazing thus far. As for next year, here's some other big titles that are supposed to be released: Project Origin aka F.E.A.R. 2 made by Monolith...

    My Gaming Rig....OLD?? Already??

    What's the point if you want to play all of your games at max settings NOW? Personally, I don't want to wait a year or more to play Crysis at max settings when I can go out now and buy the parts that can do that.

    My Gaming Rig....OLD?? Already??

    If you stayed up-to-date on when new architures are coming out you won't have this problem. You see..when you bought this stuff about 1.5-2 years ago you paid a decent price. About 1 year ago Conroe came out and rewrote all performance and benchmarks - thus AMD and Intel went in a price war -...

    Incredible Far Cry 2 video

    Ah, you missed out - the Lake Yantar area of the game is one of the best designed levels/sections in ANY game I've ever played - extremely fun and extremely creepy! (especially if you play this part at night..alone in your room) But you can't get there until about 75% through the game and...

    Incredible Far Cry 2 video

    You tell me, which would you rather have: Boring medpacks which you have to take the time to find and doesn't make any different experience to gameplay or an innovattive game which tries something new and different while being somewhat more "realistic". I'd choose the latter. Because...

    Incredible Far Cry 2 video

    Yeah, exactly what I thought - and that this is exactly what S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - SoC should have been. :( If Ubisoft can get the animals in the environment to interact with you and have some of them be enemies (i.e. Lions etc.) then this game might actually be better than Crysis - but just...

    VIsta + Gaming = O_O

    If such a high requirement game made your PC restart in the middle of game play, but your other games run fine, I'd think it was more likely your PSU needs to be upgraded because your CPU and Video card should run that just fine.

    Hellgate: London Alpha passes go out
