  1. AMD Ryzen 9000 Series Delivers Better Performance on Windows Administrator Accounts, Reviewers Say

    Lackluster performance is at least somewhat related to Windows. Linux is seeing better numbers pretty much across the board. I'm talking about software which runs under both OSes and can be directly compared. This isn't a surprise to me as quite a bit of software over the years has shown to run...
  2. Paramount Pictures Shuts Down Television Arm amid Plan to Lay Off 15% of Its U.S. Staff

    I don't know at what point in production Reacher season 3 is currently at but I think it's likely it will be finished assuming it is even affected by this. There is also the possibility that someone can come in and rescue Reacher even if it is on the chopping block.
  3. New Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season Two Trailer Teases Return of Sauron and Legendary Siege of Eregion

    There is nothing to be open minded about the first season. Trash story, trash characters, trash dialog, trash costumes, trash sets, trash cgi and so on. That's not even counting how they ignored and/or destroyed basically all the lore and timelines. No matter how you view that thing it's an...
  4. SAPPHIRE NITRO+ RX 7800 XT 16GB GAMING OC Video Card Review

    Yeah, it's funny when the exact same people who defended the nvidia 30 series power draw and said it wasn't important are now the ones bitching about Radeon power draw.
  5. AMD Announces It Is Bethesda’s Exclusive PC Partner for Starfield, Killing All Hopes of NVIDIA DLSS 3 and Frame Generation Implementation: “We ...

    Except that almost every single one of those GPUs can run FSR but only a fraction, and likely a small fraction at that, can run DLSS. And beyond that, the console market dwarfs the GPU market and guess what happens to be powering those consoles? It's amazing how much butthurt there is over...
  6. Warner Bros. Is Attempting to Reconnect with Peter Jackson for New Lord of the Rings Films

    Peter Jackson took a nasty hit because of studio interference in the Hobbit movie atrocities and I'd be surprised if the studio could keep its hands off the new movies which would kill any chance he'd come back.
  7. Overclocking AMD Radeon RX 7600

    The hard limits could also suggest the GPU and yields have the potential for some very high numbers but AMD doesn't want this card at this price to be able to make use of what it can do. That could be due to a possible future 7600xt or maybe it could make a possible 7700 class card look bad...
  8. The Lord of the Rings: Gollum Manages to Become One of the Lowest-Rated Games of 2023

    I can't imagine in any world where I would want to play as Gollum and I doubt I'm the only one. The premise of the game was bad from the start. If the gameplay, performance and visuals are also bad it sounds like the developer didn't think much of the game either.
  9. Amazon Announces a New Lord of the Rings Game: “We Want It to Be the Biggest MMO Out There”

    I've never seen the actual licensing agreement of course, but it has been known for years that the license is by no mean in perpetuity. It has always been for a set amount of time with re-negotiation required every time the license was up for renewal. All the current owner of the IP has to do...
  10. Amazon Announces a New Lord of the Rings Game: “We Want It to Be the Biggest MMO Out There”

    I was more than happy to hear the previous attempt by Amazon at a Lord of the Rings MMO died and really don't like hearing that another attempt is being made. One reason is that I play Lord of the Rings Online and there's no way in hell Amazon could ever come close to matching what that game is...
  11. Der8auer Shares a Statement from ASUS in a Video Showing Damage to a Ryzen 7000 Non-X3D CPU

    I have an Asus B450-f Gaming with a Ryzen 2600x in it. When I first started running it I noticed temps seemed quite high. After some investigation it turns out the motherboard was pumping 1.2v into the SoC. After manually setting the voltage to 1.0v it ran a lot cooler with slightly better...
  12. Amazon and The Tolkien Estate Sued for Alleged Copyright Infringement in The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power

    Considering how horrible the series was and how much like terrible fanfic it was I wouldn't be surprised to find out something like this is true.
  13. What is your target FPS for gaming?

    I'm currently running a 1080p 75hz monitor so I go for 75fps but am hoping to upgrade to a 1440p 144hz monitor later this year. If so, it will obviously change then
  14. The Continental Trailer Teases a Three-Part John Wick Series without Keanu Reeves

    If the trailer is anything to go by, it's no surprise that John Wick wouldn't be in it. According to the trailer it takes place in the 70s and I doubt a baby John Wick would be very interesting.
  15. Disney+ Cancels Willow After One Season

    From everything I've heard about it, it should have been cancelled before it was made.
