  1. Graphics Tech startup from the 90s

    I completely forgot about those. I think I only ever saw one or two of those cards in person. I vaguely remember something like that.
  2. Graphics Tech startup from the 90s

    S3 predated the GPU wars entirely. Though they did participate with the S3 Virge. Back then everyone had 2D/3D accelerators but really lost out to the VooDoo 1 and later VooDoo 2, which were dedicated 3D cards but were so much faster when utilizing the Glide API. The only thing else like it was...
  3. The More You Buy, the More You Enjoy, as Ubisoft Claims That Microtransactions Allow Players to Have More Fun

    What Ubisoft is truly good at is failing to connect the dots. It's not that people enjoy microtransactions. They are simply willing to spend more on games they like. If a game is bad, microtransactions do not make it more fun. If anything, you will be less likely to spend anything on a game that...
  4. The More You Buy, the More You Enjoy, as Ubisoft Claims That Microtransactions Allow Players to Have More Fun

    It's not a surprise that a company that's literally floundering with one flop after another over the last two years thinks that.
  5. ASRock B850 LiveMixer WiFi Motherboard Review

    Well the point is that there are boards out there with stupid amounts of ports. But yes, that extra connectivity usually comes at higher price points.
  6. ASRock B850 LiveMixer WiFi Motherboard Review

    Depends on what you are looking for. I've got *** loads of USB C ports on my MSI MEG X870E GODLIKE.
  7. Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.3 Arrives, Bringing New Vehicles & Quests, AutoDrive & Taxi Services, Photo Mode Features, Support for Mac Users, and More

    I haven't had issues like that since the very early days of the game. Even then, I don't really recall that kind of thing happening a lot if ever.
  8. TEAMGROUP Goes Mission Impossible with One-Click Self-Destructing SSD

    Wait until some idiot activates this by accident.
  9. Reusing an old AMD motherboard (X370)

    Sometimes, but this is rare. It's usually denoted on the page when this is the case.
  10. From Cancelled Games to Closed Studios, There’s a Trail of Carnage in the Wake of Microsoft’s Layoffs

    It's been a blood bath in the entire gaming industry over the last two years. It's not surprising Microsoft is reacting this way. The more surprising bit is that they waited so long to do so. The problem is that publishers are expecting 2020 revenue streams for games with 2016 politics shoe...
  11. Mouse recommendations without the bloatware

    You know you can usually set things up how you like, save to the local memory on the mouse and then uninstall the software if you like? I'm running a G502X and I don't have the software installed at all.
  12. Post your rig!

    The monitor has a built-in KVM functionality. Oh, and the wired network is actually 10GbE. I've got a Brocade ICX7250 switch with the required 10GbE license and 10GbE SFPs. I ran CAT6e cable throughout the house. Every room has two jacks except my office which has three.
  13. Destiny 2 Developer Says Bungie’s Team Plans to Create a More Curated Experience So New and Returning Players Can Jump Right In and Play

    Another game studio that doesn't seem to understand why their player base fell off a cliff. Must be a day ending in Y.
