  1. Question 'Ampere'/Next-gen gaming uarch speculation thread

    If you have cash to burn and/or just need the best, the 3090 is the obvious best performer. The 3080 is clearly (based on NV slides) the best performer for the money. If $699 is too high, I cannot see how the 3070 makes a great case seeing how cut down that it is for only $200 less. My opinion...
  2. Threadripper BUILDERS thread

    What is everyone's initial opinions of the new TR builds? Looks rather smooth in the comments so far, and some great synthetics. General impressions and/or opinions?
  3. Are the differences between tires/brands really that big?

    Tires are something no one should compromise with. When you put you, your family's lives, or someone's else in danger, only then do you think 'should I have skimped on cheap tires?' To be fair, its not just $$$, but your driving habits and environment. Living in the north, I cannot go back to...
  4. New PS4.5 in the works?

    Absolutely. Especially as we move forward with more and more graphically intensive titles.
  5. Can the Xbox 1 or the PS4 handle HDR blu-ray?

    I honestly wouldn't be surprised if MS focused on providing support for these via firmware updates based on the PS4 not supporting UHD. If they patched these 'holes' the S would be a fantastic choice for enthusiasts. I personally don't miss these features, but I understand those who might want them.
  6. Sony PlayStation Meeting 9/7/2016 3PM EDT

    Grabbed a Xbox One S instead....I guess I will wait for the PS4 Neo Slim (with 4K blu Ray) or just the PS5.
  7. Sony PlayStation Meeting 9/7/2016 3PM EDT

    Don't disagree. They could have included it in the 'Pro' and had that be a real differentiator. Oh well. :)
  8. Sony PlayStation Meeting 9/7/2016 3PM EDT

    Can't agree more. I was looking forward to getting a PS4 with 4K BD support (didn't;t matter if Neo or Slim honestly) to add to my standard Xbox One. Now...I think I may just replace the Xbox One with the S and use that alone....maybe get the Scorpio next year, maybe not. Was 100% looking to...
  9. Sony PlayStation Meeting 9/7/2016 3PM EDT

    You would think so, but apparently an updated BD drive is required for UHD playback. MS added this for the new Xbx One S model. As you state, you would think Sony would be supporting this, but you would also think they would have highlighted it has the new drive? My source isn't definitive, but...
  10. Sony PlayStation Meeting 9/7/2016 3PM EDT

    According to what I can find, it will NOT support 4K Blu rays....that likely will impact my decision to purchase the Pro. Was looking to get the updated PS4 + 4K BD player. This seems crazy to me!? http://furiousfanboys.com/2016/09/sonys-new-400-playstation-4-pro-wont-play-4k-uhd-blu-rays/
  11. Mid range has turned into high end

    I think the point everyone is missing is the assumption that we can (and should) continue to get more (performance) for the same ($) over time. It doesn't appear that this a trend that is either possible with technology, palatable for a company to continue pursue, or both. RS provided some...
  12. Question for anyone working at a dealership.

    LOL, sounds like you should have just bought it from your friend directly. :P In all seriousness, I would expect the dealership likely has some $$ in the vehicle. They purchased it, transferred ownership and (hopefully) resolved any critical issues. I would offer $22-23k and say take it or...
  13. What display are you rocking?

    3440x1440. Been on this for 2.5 years now and LOVE it.
  14. How old is your monitor?

    Usually target ~4 years of use. That said, times are a little different now. HDMI 2.0 was a benchmark in bandwidth (for example) and newer specs for both HDMI and DP are required to take advantage of HDR. Also in the mix is Freesync/Gsync as well. This likely shortens lifetime in the...
  15. [TomsHW] PCIe 4.0 - 32GB/sec over x16, 300-500W slot power

    Totally agree. Would cut down a LOT on cable clutter, would help considerably for SFF builds and make the whole process much more elegant. 20 years ago, you had a single power cable to your MB and then to any external/internal drives. Imagine using a M.2 drive (no external power needed) on a MB...
  16. Pascal GP100 dieshot

    Nice shot...
  17. [TomsHW] PCIe 4.0 - 32GB/sec over x16, 300-500W slot power

    The CPU I suppose, but to that's rather new (last 10 years maybe?) It would be ideal if the MB and directly connected devices (excluding drives, etc. that don't connect directly to slot/docket) had a single power source. 24-pin mb cable + 4/8-pin CPU + extra MB molex + GPU power is rediculous.
  18. Displayport sleep repositioning windows

    Not a plug, but the application by Stardock called 'Fences' can work great for this because it will allow you to group your icons and it will 'remember' the positioning. I used this in the past for instances like this and it was great. That said, I haven't reinstalled it (yet) on Win10, but they...
  19. [TomsHW] PCIe 4.0 - 32GB/sec over x16, 300-500W slot power

    I think it will be great. This will help reduce cable clutter significantly and eliminate the need for extra wires to the GPU. Obviously, it will be somewhat of a change with PSUs, cabling to the MB power and the internal power management on the board, but is good for the industry. Honestly, no...
  20. [ H ]: AMD Gains 4.8% Market Share in Q1 2016

    At the end of the day, I would argue market share of sales is more important than units, but it is very difficult to grow ASP without strong unit growth. This is promising for AMD and will help grow their user base and hopefully lead to continued growth, sales and profit. There is plenty of...
  21. NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 10-Series (Mobile Pascal)

    Yeah, that's pretty impressive.
  22. NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 10-Series (Mobile Pascal)

    I think it is pretty amazing. Never before have we had the 'standard' mobile parts the same as the desktop equivalent (albeit clocked lower). Its a great trend to see going forward and is what we saw 4-5 years ago starting with CPUs where your mobile offerings started being comparable with...
  23. NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 10-Series (Mobile Pascal)

    980M tdp was ~125w. For 17'' gaming laptops, they are generally built with cooling in mind. I am more curious about the 1060 mobile and how low that can go. If it can get to ~75w, that is pretty amazing actually for smaller gaming laptops (~15''). Keep in mind most gaming laptops are not...
  24. [Videocardz rumour] Vega pushed forward to October

    It is disappointing. That product today would most certainly be solid and (as you say) undercut the current 1070/1080 price structure. You very well would see some minor price cuts. That said, for these to come next year, is just too little too late. The 1080ti will be around and NV can afford...
  25. AMD & NVIDIA GPU VR Performance: Valve's Robot Repair

    Let's not kid ourselves. It's entry-level but definitely not premium. Works fine though...
  26. Nvidia Volta Discussion

    I am pretty optimistic for Volta. NV appears to be treating 16nm similarly to how Intel approaches new process nodes through shrinking an existing arch with some optimizations. With Pascal going very smoothly (and profitable) Volta likely will be tailored for 16nm and hopefully a real compute...
  27. [Videocardz rumour] Vega pushed forward to October

    I am 'hopeful' for Vega, but almost think we will just get 2x Polaris for 2x the price. AMD hopefully has something up their sleeve....and they will need to be providing some solid performance leaks and (accurate) prerelease hype to keep people from still buying 1080s/1080Tis. I really wanted to...
  28. This generation is like a plane crash to the GPU enthusiasm towers

    Or just play games and enjoy your GPU?
  29. [HardOCP] AMD and NVIDIA GPU Vive VR Performance in Raw Data

    Lol. You are kidding, right? PSVR will be a joke, even with the PS4K. Lower powered, fake 120hz (60hz with interpolation) and lower res displays. Like others said, lots of ports and gimmicky stuff. Likely will get better, but graphics wise it will be very limited.
  30. Inside the Xbox One S - SOC 16nm FinFET process (TSMC)

    Thanks for the link. Interesting read.
  31. [HardOCP] AMD and NVIDIA GPU Vive VR Performance in Raw Data

    Let's stay on topic? Gets really old here to constantly hear 'AMD is a genius for dx12 and it created it' as well as 'NV is optimized in this game so they must have paid someone off'. :(
  32. Considering a 2.1 or 3.1 system - recommendations requested

    Nice deal for great stuff.
  33. Considering a 2.1 or 3.1 system - recommendations requested

    Crazy Best Buy Magnolia deal about 18 months ago when they discontinued carrying them. The lady working was actually annoyed because she would have bought them if she knew they had gone so cheap. Lol
  34. Considering a 2.1 or 3.1 system - recommendations requested

    You only need to connect the LFE to the dedicated. You set the whole tower as full-range (or small, depending on your receiver) and leverage the integrated subs down to 40hz. I set the dedicated to take everything down from 40hz to ~16hz (which is the lowest my sub goes). Powered subs (in...
  35. Ten Year Anniversary of Core 2 Duo and Conroe

    Look at a phone, tablet or ultrabook from now vs. 10 years ago. Yeah...:colbert:
  36. Considering a 2.1 or 3.1 system - recommendations requested

    I will maybe be a little different, but I absolutely like powered towers if you plan to add a separate sub later. Running powered towers full-range with a separate sub sounds FANTASTIC and adds a lot of lows to your L/R channels and allows your sub to focus only on lowest frequencies. This...
  37. Considering a 2.1 or 3.1 system - recommendations requested

    I would go 9060. You likely will upgrade the receivers more often than the speakers. Note: I went with something similar when I got my L/R Mythos STS/Mythos 9 (C) + $500 receiver. I liked it a LOT but did add a dedicated sub after a while (it was worth it). Going with the better speakers...
  38. Subwoofer pop/buzz when connected to just power

    I had this issue and it was from a bad cable (hum) and on another instance (wireless sub cable - pop). Went back to a new standard cable and it fixed the issue.
  39. Who's holding back PC gaming? Consoles or Nvidia?

    Troll thread is troll thread.
  40. Maintenance costs over 10 years by brand

    The same maintenance can vary considerably in cost, even within the same city/metro area. For luxury/premium vehicles, it is not unheard of to see $300+ synthetic oil changes at some dealerships, while others offer the same service for $100-150. These numbers are useful, but also consider...
