    Nobody Is Buying AMD Ryzen 9000 Series “Zen 5” CPUs, It’s Claimed

    Has the 9950x3d been announced yet? I've just read about the 9950. I've been very happy with my 7950x3d and a friend has the 7950 non x3d who has been happy with his system too. Not that I push my system much, I dont. 4k Gaming is it for working hard.

    Nobody Is Buying AMD Ryzen 9000 Series “Zen 5” CPUs, It’s Claimed

    I am thinking the same. I would want an 870e board. Not currently in the budget.

    Virtuix Launches Omni One Full-Body VR Gaming System with 360-Degree Treadmill for $2,595

    I thinkses abouts 1/2 to 2 million needs to be added to ze price. For my tiny little condo could not fit such a monstrosity and I would need a new house or much, much (order of magnitude) bigger condo. Otherwise looks nifty!

    Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s Newest Feature Was Inspired by Mass Effect Legendary Edition, BioWare Says

    Curious I am, what the min/recommended specs are for this mode? Or is it a make your system cry and pull max power kind of thing? :)

    AMD Radeon RX 8000 Series “RDNA 4” GPUs Will Feature up to 20 Gbps GDDR6 Memory, It’s Claimed

    On some levels (as a 4k gamer) I am more concerned about how much ram as opposed to how fast, though admittedly both are important.

    Microsoft Says the End Is Nigh for Control Panel, Nearly 40 Years After Its Introduction

    I was going to say let the witch hunts begin, but they started without me. Now where did I leave my pitchfork and holy water? I've heard both can be used to some success when trying to get Windows (or windows programmers) to do as you wish. Like others, I may be showing some of my age. in...

    Soap Box Day. Steam update game process.

    Interesting, I have all of those enabled and doesnt seem to work. Or perhaps it works for some and I dont notice.

    Three New Xbox Consoles Are Now Available for Pre-Order Ahead of October Release, including Xbox Series X Digital Edition

    Why yes, I do. Its pretty nifty for making pics of my D&D characters and looking up info on random topics. Did have a big fail today trying to make a pic of my Tabaxi Rogue/Warlock. It just could not put whips in his hands/claws as weapons. Got everything else right though.

    Three New Xbox Consoles Are Now Available for Pre-Order Ahead of October Release, including Xbox Series X Digital Edition

    I dont follow consoles much. Always been a PC player since the days of my Apple //c and Lode Runner, Wolfenstein, Ultima, etc. To those who know and do keep up, is there any new tech in these? Or are they the same old of the current generation? If newer stuff I might be tempted to pick one...

    Soap Box Day. Steam update game process.

    In a preachy mood, seems like the best sub-forum, feel free to move. WTF doesnt steam have an update all button? Also WTF does Steam only download one update at a time? Usually well below my top speed meaning a second data stream (and a few more) would be fine. Why cant/wont Steam allow for...

    Denuvo by Irdeto Launches New AI Product to Detect Bots and Cheaters

    Denuvo seems like such a contentious product. /get_on_soap_box: ON First, let me explain, I agree with the goal of stopping bots and other "cheat" behaviors. I'm more so an RPG/MMO player than shooter, and have run into tons of bots farming and causing problems. The WOW Gold bots/spammers are...

    Black Myth: Wukong Devs Warn Against “Feminist Propaganda,” COVID-19, and Other “Negative Discourse” in Lead-Up to Today’s Release of Chi...

    I am wondering if that is a bad translation. Idioms from other languages tend to not work post translation. That said, WTF is 'Feminist Propaganda' and why does the Chinese government want it censored? Hmmmm, Copilot seems to have actually come up with a decent analysis. ".... Conclusion The...

    AMD Ryzen 9 9950X CPU Review: 16-Core Zen 5 at $649

    Dragon Age: The Veilguard Launches This Halloween, according to Leaked Trailer from BioWare

    I really want to play the first Dragon Age and work though the series. I started it once before back in the day, so very long ago, when I was using 3x 1080p with NV Surround, which the game was really buggy and annoying with. Now it just wont run on my current system.

    “No Reply”: Some PC Makers May Not Honor Intel’s Extended CPU Warranty

    Other than laptops, I typically buy by the part. I'm guessing its like if I got a new refrigerator. If the 6502 (just go with it) running the display does some self immolation, I dont have a warranty on the part do I? Hmmmmmmm Socketed CPU's vs soldered I see being an issue too. Do OEM's...

    Cooler Master Readies Its Groundbreaking Modular Hardware Platform MasterHub for Release

    Looks pretty nifty. Wish I had a use case to justify getting one. I can see how it would be very useful for many types of work. Just nothing I do. Or at least that I can think of right now. I suppose this could change at some point. Now if they added a game controller module....
