If anything just grab the cheap Roku Express. You can probably find them for $20-$30. They won't have many bells and whistles and won't do anything above 1080p but it's a rather cheap way to test them out to get a feel for what they can and can't do to see if they will fit your minimum needs...

I don't understand where you're getting this resource intensive stuff from. I have it running on a Q6600 with 6 gig o' RAM on an openSUSE install and there is absolutely no real resource usage. The vast majority of the RAM isn't in use and I could probably get by with 2 gig except for the WCG...

I could give him a pass on games and Legos but not the other stuff.

This movie should turn out interesting in a way. My only problem with it is we already know what happened to her character. That makes a back in time movie such as this less interesting to me since it doesn't move anything forward. It would have been much better had this movie been released...

My only worry about this is the quality of the chipset overall. From what I can see, AMD has done a good job of putting out good chipsets for a while now. I'm not particularly looking forward to some of the messes we had back in the day regarding VIA, SIS and ALi. One of Intel's strengths which...

Considering nVidia doesn't make many models without it this shouldn't be surprising. That said, it doesn't mean many people are actually using ray tracing at any level. I don't even think many could simply because there are hardly any games to use it with.

Yep, this is the most likely reason people don't hear about it as much. It's no longer new so it doesn't need to be explained and mentioned to everyone anymore. Even my parents know about it since that and OTA channels are all they have since they dropped Dish almost two years ago. If memory...

It simply wasn't as good as the original show. I'm not surprised it was cancelled.

The moment I got the update and fired up Steam I hated it. When they brought back the list view it was better but I still prefer the old view. What has been nice for me is my invite to the GoG Galaxy 2.0 beta came through and I installed that. Truth be told, the old Galaxy client was even worse...

Considering I've never once heard anything good about Intel's integrated graphics drivers it's no surprise if the drivers are a mess.

All I can tell you is that I've seen every main line Star Wars movie in the theater since Episode 1. There were no ifs, ands or buts about seeing them; it was simply going to be watched in the theater. For Episode 9 that's definitely not the case. I flat out felt cheated before I left the...

There's no need for one in the vast majority of cases but I wouldn't mind having a useful one although I'd have much more use for one on my phone. However, it needs to be completely self contained and fully functional on my hardware with no phoning home for anything, ever unless I allow it. It...

I think there's one and only one reason she's still at the head of Lucasfilm. She's the one in control and the one who brought in the trash writers and moviemakers. That means she's responsible for everything. It's obvious that Star Wars is a dumpster fire right now and it's too late to save it...

It's not like this is a surprise. Intel was supposed to have been on 10nm years ago which would have allowed them to get more dies per wafer for their mainline processors and relegate the remaining 14nm fabs for second tier Intel products and third party fab orders. Shortages are going to...

Yes, because there was so many Star Wars novels and comics in 1977 when Star Wars was released. And the absolutely wonderful (sarcasm) Splinter of the Mind's Eye novel as well as a Han Solo Adventure or two were huge amounts of novelization which aren't even referenced in The Empire Strikes...

If they give me one of these phones I'll consider paying to see the movie in the theater.

I think that's exactly what's going to happen. Midrange Navi was already too power inefficient to be able to expand performance any higher and keep it inside any tolerable power threshold. I think the Navi architecture is quite good and scaleable but only if AMD can get the power usage under...

The only thing I'd want to see regarding a "remaster" is the first two games ported to the same engine and combat mechanics as the third game. That would include inventory and weapon mods and such. The story would need to be left completely alone and only the most minor changes regarding...

Nice review. It was interesting to see what the card can do when pushed to the limits without needing to worry about cooling. I'm curious if the increase in performance is more about the core clock increase or the RAM overclock. I thought I remember reading somewhere that it seemed as if the...

I've worked in government which means I've dealt with thousands upon thousands of people directly. You would be very surprised at how many neutral names there are, the number of people with names which are traditionally used for one sex but given to the other as well as the number of names which...
