Question Is an RTX 3070 really not a lot faster than a RX 7600?

So, I got a new computer on sale and decided to test my old Dell OEM RTX 3070 vs my "new" RX 7600. (I was well aware what I'm getting. I got the new PC because of its newer mobo, ram and CPU. ) Anyways, most benchmarks I did showed only around 2-4 fps difference in games I tested! I am somewhat...

Question Upgrading from an i7-10700F. Please advise.

Hey guys, I bought a pre-built in 2020 because video cards were hard to come by. I want to build a new system now, and I already have literally everything minus the CPU and mobo. Which CPU will give me the most upgrade longevity right now, AMD or Intel? I'm looking at both the 7600x and...

Russia on brink of ... NOPE! Russia INVADES Ukraine!

This is complete nonsense. US has never, ever faced a remotely "modern" adversary on the battlefield, so you cannot judge any potential air superiority potential. Even tiny Serbia with heavily outdated and vastly underpowered army was able to shoot down a state of the art, cutting edge F-117A...

Question Is There Much Difference Between 75Hz and 100Hz Monitors for Gaming?

Respectfully, I just don't see it. Someone on YouTube said "look at your mouse pointer" it leaves more of a trail on slower panels. Yes, I notice that. But these things do not translate to gaming at all for me. I play video games a lot and see no benefit whatsoever. For example, I am playing a...

Question *Subjective* is OLED actually worth it?

So I been looking at OLED TVs and monitors in stores a lot and I even purchased a small 13-inch portable monitor. And for the money, I really think this technology isn't worth it. First of all, to REALLY see the difference, full darkness is required. I don't care what anyone says, but the...

Question Is There Much Difference Between 75Hz and 100Hz Monitors for Gaming?

Disclaimer: I hate all competitive FPS with burning passion such as Overwatch, Apex Legend or Call of Duty. I do like FPS with good story and RPG elements such as STALKER, Fallout, Mass Effect or Doom. There's literally NO DIFFERENCE unless you play FPS shooters competitively. I have a 75fps...

Stalker 2

Stalker was amazing. I beat every single Stalker game and made sure to do so meticulously and thoroughly. I cannot bring myself to play any of the Stalker Gamma mods as those came way, way too late for me. Definitely looking forward to Stalker 2, but also Pioneer which should be absolutely...

Question Atomic Heart (So Expensive!)

This is kind of a rant, so if it triggers you, ignore me. I really like the game Atomic Heart. Played the demo to death and watched some videos on YouTube. The post is about its price. It just doesn't fall below $30 even though it's been out for a long time now. I mean, who the hell do these...

Question Why are my USB transfer speeds so bad?

I am transferring a 109GB file to a 256GB USB flash drive. The drive is at least ver. 3.0. Don't know if it's a 3.1 or a 3.2. The file is being transferred from a WD Black 7200RPM hard drive. The speeds during the transfer vary from around 13kb to 22MB, but on average stay in the kilobytes and...

Atomic Batteries for phones?

Yes sounds pretty awesome. But consumers will probably not see this until 30-50 years from now. Until then, only governments will have full access to this tech. This little scene comes to mind...

Discussion Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. An ultra disappointment.

Its finally here! And... There's hardly anything essential or unique. All of the AI stuff? Thats coming to the S23 as well later in the year, so it's a software thing. Not a hardware thing. What's worse, a lot of it is "not that useful." Translation during calls is quite useful, sure, but...

Question Please help with my i7-10700F

I bought a dell pre-built computer back when CoVid was in full swing and there was no other way to get my hands on a relatively cheap RTX 3070. Because of this I was stuck with an i5-10400F which I recently upgraded to a i7-10700F so I could get better framerate in Diablo 4. Performance did...

Discussion I see no difference between 60Hz and 120+hz

Let's discuss the differences between refresh rates for people that DO NOT PLAY ANY FPS GAMES. I hate FPS games like Call of Duty, so I can't comment on those. I see no difference between 60Hz and 120+hz. Am I simply crazy? I checked this with RPGs like Fallout, Baldurs gate, and Encased. I...

you're making some very bold claims my friend. Care to show me exactly which game does not run @ 4k 30fps at least?
