    Starfield Continues to Suffer from Corruption, Low Texture Details, and Other Problems on Arc GPUs: Intel Graphics Driver 31.0.101.4824 Release Notes

    I think this was primarily tuned for 30fps in console hardware. Going forward there will be further optimizations. But if you just want to play the game, it should be "playable" in current state as is.

    Todd Howard Responds to Starfield’s Alleged Lack of PC Optimization: “Upgrade Your PC”

    Chips and Cheese on RDNA 3's relative "overperformance" in Starfield there’s really nothing wrong with Nvidia’s performance in this game, as some comments around the internet might suggest. Lower utilization is by design in Nvidia’s architecture. Nvidia SMs have smaller register files and can...

    Todd Howard Responds to Starfield’s Alleged Lack of PC Optimization: “Upgrade Your PC”

    I think the question posed was too dumb. It should have been the other way round "What feature(s) of this game cause such a demanding requirement on PC Hardware"

    Elon Musk Announces That Blocking Is Going Away on X Just as It’s Revealed That Twitch Streamers Can Soon Block Banned Accounts

    That is exactly the idea. It costs twitter money to maintain individual blocklists plus also it drives down engagement (including hate engagements such as trolling/harassment) So from Musk's point of view it is a "win-win" for him to remove blocks and he is prepared to charge users a premium...

    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series “Blackwell” Graphics Cards Will Reportedly Not Include an AD104 Successor at Launch

    Wouldn't it be more profitable/efficient to create new cards that replace 4080 / 4090 (& maybe 4070 ti) Rebranding would be useful for 4070 (=$400 5060), 4060 ti (=$300 5050 ti), 4060 (=$220 5050)

    GeForce RTX 4060 Ti vs GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER Performance Comparison

    Would have been interesting to include these 3 cards also in the comparison & make it a 5 way battle 2060 12gb 3060 12gb 4060 ti 16gb Idea is to identify bottlenecks with 8gb vram For example in Ratchet & Clank in 1080p ultra (RT off) the 2060 12gb almost matches the 8gb 4060 ti !!!

    Speculation about AMD’s Continued Commitment to High-End Consumer GPUs Increases as More Rumors Circulate

    If this is true then that published road map needs an update. No way AMD is building RDNA 4 cards on an "advanced" node. More likely to stay on the "cheaper" 5nm/4NP nodes.

    AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE (16 GB) Tipped for July 28 Launch

    Josh Norem of ExtremeTech seems to think that this is a Navi 31 chip inside a Navi 32 packaging !! One fascinating detail is that when comparing the backside of the GRE card, which stands for Golden Rabbit Edition, to the existing Radeon RX 7900 XT, you can see the underbelly of the die and the...

    Nearly 90% of Video Games Released Before 2010 Are “Completely Unavailable,” Video Game History Foundation Finds

    As another poster says, the content is still available for songs in a digital medium Problem with Games is, it is specific to a hardware platform & needs fresh dev effort to port it over to a new platform, like what MS is trying to do. Emulation could work but it runs into piracy issues

    Microsoft Reveals It’s Lost the Console Wars: “We’ve Consistently Ranked Third behind PlayStation and Nintendo”

    Agree the memory is a bottleneck on Series S But majority of installed Nvidia cards have 8gb or less of memory. If a game can be optimized for a 8gb card at 1080p then it can be optimized for series S also & vice versa

    Microsoft Reveals It’s Lost the Console Wars: “We’ve Consistently Ranked Third behind PlayStation and Nintendo”

    There is no techincal explanation of how a Series S holds back games. As I have mentioned before Series X targets 4K & Series S targets 1080p. This is perfectly fine. Problem is when "lazy" game devs target 1440p for series X
