Yeah, like streaming killed the movie business... No wait...

I see it differently, I really hope it helps bring the cost of game development down, it's getting ridiculous. If only it went to the working people, the devs, the artists, the testers. But no, these guys get payed peanuts while marketing/management gets the big slice of the cake.

Who would have known that after all the years of SteamOS failures it would come back from the dead on a handheld. MS better release a "Windows Gaming" or Xbox OS for PC version or something like that. Steam is ready to go for the desktop market yet again.

I think MS should licence the xbox brand to handhelds manufacturers, at least initially. Then go with "desktop" consoles. no need for the xbox handhelds to run native xbox games, just pc game pass games and xbox cloud, they could even throw steam games while you are at it.

I have my doubts about it being an actual Xbox handheld and think it will probably be an xbox cloud/pc gamepass portable.

So, my son's PC didn't boot, I had to re-seat the video card. I was really tempted to go ahead and do the upgrade, but managed to refrain ;) ;)

BTW I bought the parts to upgrade my son's PC for his birthday on July 3rd. It's a surprise so he doesn't know. Well unless he receives the package. I was planning to fake a pc problem on july 2nd and "fix it" so it would be ready for the next day. My son is not computer savvy, so I may be...

I forgot to update, it got solved with a later windows update.

The deal on the 5700X is OFF I ended up getting the 5700X3d plus an AIO cooler for a little under $285 (awesome price here), plus I will pay it in 18 months no interest, should be getting here in a couple of days.

So apparently there's a HOT SALE next week, hopefully something better comes out

Thing is I'm already making big gains from where I am now, I think I can spare an extra 20% or so performance.

I agree that the 5700X3d is way better than the 5700X, but paying close to twice as much? not sure about that. To make matters worse I'm getting a great deal on the 5700X, which only makes the price difference bigger. To put it into perspective it's like getting the 5700X for a little over...

While I won't says subscriptions are a blessing, they are pretty good IMO, particularly gamepass. We get to choose from hundreds of games for a price lower than a single game. The best thing is I don't even have to pay every month. My kid gets hooked on a steam or Epic game? No gamepass for a...

It's an RTX 3070Ti, considering getting a 4070Ti super Gaming @1440p and maybe some 4k in the future. (not with current games of course).

I'm hessitant to buy a Ryzren 7 5700x3d So I have a Gigabyte B550 mb and I was hoping to pair it with a 5700G or 5700x. In my search I found a 5700x3d, I know they are hard to find nowadays but are a great alternative to a 5800x3d. Thing is it's almost twice the price of the 5700x It would be...

I recall DirectML was supposed to be used for MS DLSS alternative, I think there was a demo on a GTX1080Ti before DLSS 1.0 came out. Still waiting for it...

I was hoping it would trade blows with a RTX3070Ti, but it can't keep up with a RTX3060Ti

DirectML has been dead even before arrival, OpenCL is the "only contender" if you can actually call it that. After years and years AMD is finally making progress with ROCm, but support is even worse than Open CL.

I've said this for years. It doesn't really matter if intel or AMD have the faster GPU for AI, they need the software to complement it. CUDA is the de facto standard for compute workloads, not just AI; they need something to compete with CUDA not just the hardware.

There has been rumors of AMD, nvidia and Intel have been working on multigpus gaming cards for over a decade. The promise of making multigpus work as one has not yet been fulfilled. I'm not sure why is it so hard as DX12/Vulkan were supposed to make it easier. I recall rumors of multigpu...
