    Intel was not overhyping Panther Lake performance

    Interesting, looks to be a great mobile CPU. And I'll say that OTHER than apple... Intel has been winning the Mobile market. Looks at the Intel chips... hummmm....

    Next PlayStation and Xbox Consoles Are Rumored to Feature AMD UDNA/RNDA 5 Graphics

    It will be interesting to see what actually makes it to a card for us DIY folks and if it will only be offered in SOC situations. I mean honest engine here.... if I can get a SOC system, with 64 or 128 gig of fast ram that can perform better than my tower sitting next to my monitor... and be...

    2026 7th Annual Folding Challenge (hosted by [H]ard|OCP)

    Man I hope you're being funny... otherwise... ummm... you might want to take these posts down before they are saved in the ether forever for your insurance company to find.

    Ubisoft Implodes After Axing Multiple Projects, Although a Few Are Expected to Survive, for Now

    I have enjoyed their Assassins creed series of games. And their Avatar game wasn't bad either. They went the wrong Direction with the Crew III or whatever you want to call it and that killed that IP for me. Never got into their other games very deeply... but I have some good gaming...

    NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 Upscaling Performance Review & Analysis

    You know what that is impressive. The ability to maintain image quality with that level of upscaling is surprising to say the least. I'm looking forward to reading about on demand frame gen as well and how that works out. THAT will be a BEAST to test properly... I could imagine it in...

    This is how badly Intel screwed itself over

    I'm pretty sure the point was. Yea the e-cores are great. It's really too bad that consumers don't know or don't care largely about the number or types of cores they just want more and faster all the time regardless. So engineering be that software or hardware has to step up their game so...

    This is how badly Intel screwed itself over

    This is a tech that was too arduous for developers to use easily. If there was more scheduling magic this would have worked out. Like x3d dual ccd could be better if non gaming processes could be offloaded to non 3d vcache CCDs. Same for the ecore and pcore dance. If threads could be...

    A Troubling Trend Is Growing as PC Hardware Manufacturers Cancel Orders Only to Repost the Same Product at a Higher Price

    The problem here isn't that Zotac and Corsair are raising prices. If they are taking orders ahead of production without a contract signed for supplies to meet the demand of sed production already on contract at negotiated rates (as is expected) then pricing their goods based on those rates...

    2026 7th Annual Folding Challenge (hosted by [H]ard|OCP)

    Yea... I can't participate with HardOCP because I tried to be a decent human being to the op's. It's comical how egotistical they have become.

    A Troubling Trend Is Growing as PC Hardware Manufacturers Cancel Orders Only to Repost the Same Product at a Higher Price

    Zotac is at the top of my ****list right now. And I'm always eyeballing a 5090... it's a problem lol. Corsair slightly less so because they have made some people right that got caught up in their markup extravaganza.

    This is how badly Intel screwed itself over

    AMD for the professional market is still trying to win market share. Once they eclipse Intel by a comfortable margin (if they do in the enterprise space) they will mark up their prices to parity with what Intel is doing today. But Intel has given up the Halo market for consumer and HEDT...

    A Troubling Trend Is Growing as PC Hardware Manufacturers Cancel Orders Only to Repost the Same Product at a Higher Price

    I saw this as well. Just makes me trust an Amazon over any distinct manufacturer. Right now Corsair and Zotac are on my **** list. Corsair slightly less so.

    This is how badly Intel screwed itself over

    Y9u know of they had ostensibly and demonstrably the best cpu they could charge what they want. People would cry about it then buy it. And their one step down cpu would be selling out faster than they could make them on release. You know... like AMD does.

    Buckle up! Things just went from bad to much, much worse

    I mean good bad or otherwise... I'm in the corpo crowd. But still... it's disturbing. Once folks are on tablets controlling what they get their eyes on becomes much easier in those 'walled' ecosystems.
