  1. AMD Will Increase Ryzen 7 9700X and Ryzen 5 9600X TDP from 65 to 105 Watts via AGESA 1.2.0.1a BIOS Update, It’s Claimed

    I don't know where that 20% figure comes from but that's beyond wishful thinking. The problem with focusing on performance-per-watt and energy efficiency is that for the most part, desktop users don't care about that. They want performance. The fact that a CPU comes in at almost the same...
  2. Paramount Pictures Shuts Down Television Arm amid Plan to Lay Off 15% of Its U.S. Staff

    A lot of the problem comes down to the garbage content they are making. They are spending a fortune on original content that sucks ***. In the case of Paramount, most of the Star Trek shows haven't been well received and they are extremely expensive to make. Thanks to Alex Kurtzman, they are...
  3. New Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season Two Trailer Teases Return of Sauron and Legendary Siege of Eregion

    That's OK, with Paramount's TV division being shut down there is a real chance they'll put a stop to garbage like the Starfleet Academy show. The tide is turning, its just not turning fast enough.
  4. DOOM II: RAY TRACED Mod Brings Path Tracing to id Software’s 1994 Classic

    Adding ray tracing to a 30 year old game is like giving a boob job to a 90 year old woman and hiring her as a stripper. Sure, her tits are new but that doesn't change the fact that the rest of her belongs in a nursing home.
  5. New Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season Two Trailer Teases Return of Sauron and Legendary Siege of Eregion

    It amazes me that they chose to spend more money on this given the reception of the first season.
  6. Paramount Pictures Shuts Down Television Arm amid Plan to Lay Off 15% of Its U.S. Staff

    Good. Maybe they can stop the Starfleet Academy show before that pile of dog **** gets made.
  7. ASUS Is the First Motherboard Manufacturer to Offer Intel’s New Microcode Update to Address 13th/14th Gen Core Instability Issues

    Everything with ASUS always starts from the top of the ROG series and trickles downward.
  8. Borderlands Movie Is a “Disaster,” Critics Say

    I'm hearing its legitimately terrible. I've not even heard of any mention of wokeness or anything. It's just bad. Badly written, badly acted, bad special effects, etc.
  9. “No Reply”: Some PC Makers May Not Honor Intel’s Extended CPU Warranty

    Oh yes it does. Manufacturers have no obligation to do anything beyond the product's original warranty.
  10. Ad-Free Tier of Disney+ Will Soon Cost More than Double What It Was at Launch

    That's OK, I won't pay for any tier of that garbage so long as they keep turning out turds for every franchise they've assimilated and ruined.
  11. “No Reply”: Some PC Makers May Not Honor Intel’s Extended CPU Warranty

    This isn't surprising. Warranties from OEM's are for the total system for a period of one year typically. Outside of that there is no warranty what so ever unless you bought an extended warranty or your particular hardware has a longer one as is the case with servers and workstations. Since...
  12. Borderlands Movie Is a “Disaster,” Critics Say

    Professional mainstream critics are so out of touch with actual audiences that I automatically distrust anything they say.
  13. Intel Currently Has No Plans to Recall Failing 13th and 14th Gen Processors nor Will Sales Be Halted

    Dude often has good information, but Jesus I can't handle how long winded those videos are.
  14. Faulty CrowdStrike Update Causes Global Outages on Windows Machines Disrupting Airlines, Banks, and Offices around the World

    It is concerning and its not something anyone was aware was possible. It was only possible because of the way Crowdstrike works and the way the company chose to get around Microsoft's WHQL certification requirements for driver files. While Crowdstrike isn't a driver exactly, it loads a driver...
  15. Intel’s Stock Has Tumbled Following Layoff Announcements, Potential Class-Action Lawsuit, and Ongoing Drama with Its CPU Instability Issues

    Well said. The company has also survived worse fiascos than this. The Intel FPU/FDIV bug for the Pentium 60/66 comes to mind.
  16. Star Wars Outlaws PC Requirements Indicate a Need for Upscaling at All Resolutions

    While this sounds good at first, its a bad idea. If you got rid of the business people, you'd end up with a lot of studios either shuttering their doors before completing their work or a Star Citizen type situation. As with all things, a balanced approach is usually the best one.
  17. Next Battlefield Is EA’s “Most Ambitious” Project Ever, CEO Reveals

    It's not a bad thing when its done organically and when it makes sense. I don't think this is as "essential" as people think it is. A lot of popular characters are popular with people that look and act nothing like them. Lots of guys play female characters in games. Some games have protagonists...
  18. Star Wars Outlaws PC Requirements Indicate a Need for Upscaling at All Resolutions

    Nothing we've seen from the visuals justify any reason for it to need upscaling at all resolutions. Meaning, it runs like *** for no discernable reason.
