    PC Hardware Manufacturers Answer as to Whether or Not Its Better to Use Bundled GPU Adapters or Native PSU 12V-2×6 Cables

    The logical answer would be less connections means less points of failure. But there is more to it. Due to the fragility and lack of safety margin in this stupid connector I think it is better to use the adapter that came with the GPU, because it will probably be made by the same supplier as the...

    From Bad to Worse, NVIDIA Reportedly Will Cut RTX 50 Series Production by 30–40% in 2026 and Might Stop Providing VRAM to Its Partners

    I welcomed the death of physical media, do you realize how much I hated disc based DRMs? That every freaking time you wanted to play a game you had to find its disc insert it into your drive and wait 60-120 seconds while starforce or securom tried to break your CD-ROM drive and if it fails to...

    Vince Zampella, Call of Duty Co-Creator, Co-Founder of Respawn and Infinity Ward, EA Exec, Was Tragically Killed in a Car Accident

    TBF when hitting concrete with this kind of speed doesn't matter what type of car it is. The difference is that it takes a mile for a regular car to reach 100mph while it takes 4 seconds in these. It's better to die when you have nothing going on than when you're enjoying life. It's like waking...

    Vince Zampella, Call of Duty Co-Creator, Co-Founder of Respawn and Infinity Ward, EA Exec, Was Tragically Killed in a Car Accident

    Judging by the video he just misjudged the speed, went into the corner too fast slid off. He might have hit a rock, but if he did that already happened off the road. What he clearly hit however is the end of the concrete barrier which torn the car in two.

    From Bad to Worse, NVIDIA Reportedly Will Cut RTX 50 Series Production by 30–40% in 2026 and Might Stop Providing VRAM to Its Partners

    If you're not maxing out graphics then it is cheating and it doesn't count. I didn't mean it as an insult, but as the sad state of gaming on PC thanks to nvidia.

    From Bad to Worse, NVIDIA Reportedly Will Cut RTX 50 Series Production by 30–40% in 2026 and Might Stop Providing VRAM to Its Partners

    There are no 4K gamers anymore. What was the last time you played a new game at native 4K? nvidia has forgot the thousand year rule they want to stop providing circuses for the people, it can only backfire, but I guess they think they'll use their ai surveillance partners to squash any unrest.

    DRAM Prices Skyrocket to a Record 171% YoY Level as Shortages Continue amid Increased Demand from AI-Driven Applications

    Of course they'd say that. "Don't wait for prices to go back down, buy while they're sky high!" It's almost as if they had a vested interest. I have two middle fingers to give them, nothing else. I'll sit here popcorn at the ready waiting for their precious bubble bath to spring a leak. And...

    Buyout Deal Worth $82 Billion Could See Netflix Gain Access to Warner Bros. Game IPs Such as Batman, Harry Potter, and Mortal Kombat

    I only saw two of them as well: Blues Brothers like 25 years ago and hated it, and 2001, which i liked until the ending. Nah, 99% of European movie consumption is from hollywood, there are a few homebrew cult classics, but they are never even mentioned on the same page as hollywood productions.

    New Mozilla CEO Says Firefox Will Evolve into a “Modern AI Browser” with AI Features That Can Be Turned On or Off by the User

    They have been doing the opposite for a while with injecting ads into your homepage, doing activism instead of focusing on the software development. AI is all well and good as long as it runs locally in a container and I decide what data it has access to. I'm not against AI, I have found it...

    The Game Awards Highlights: Clair Obscur Expedition 33 Cleans Up with Nine Wins, Two Tomb Raider Games on the Way, a New DIvinity Game Inbound, and...

    What the h ell? Have you not seen Max Payne I-II? Sure they have great narrative too, but those games have the best gameplay I've ever experienced in any shooter. Control is a freaking backtracking simulator with repetitive random monster spawns and the most useless map of all games. And the...

    The Game Awards Highlights: Clair Obscur Expedition 33 Cleans Up with Nine Wins, Two Tomb Raider Games on the Way, a New DIvinity Game Inbound, and...

    I'm gonna say it: Announcing two games in the same franchise at the same event is really poor marketing. Firstly they overshadow each other, second it is confusing AF when a bunch of clips and screenshots are being shared on various social media and you never know which is from which game.

    EXODUS Devs Provide More Details at The Game Awards, Release a New Trailer, and Provide a Launch Target

    As much as I liked Drew Karpyshin's writing in Mass Effect and the tie-in novels, that was 15+ years ago. People change, who used to make great things might make shovelware later. Just look at James Cameroon. Now I'm not saying Karpyshin definitely changed since the O G Mass Effect, but I'd...

    Industry-Wide Price Hikes Expected in 2026 as Manufacturers Begin Implementing Price “Adjustments” Due to Memory and Storage Supply Shortages

    ...all it takes is to turn off DLSS in say CP2077 for a few seconds to see how it should look. Granted it will be unplayable, but I firmly believe the same or very close visuals could've been achieved with true optimization and using traditional lighting methods instead of computation expensive...

    Industry-Wide Price Hikes Expected in 2026 as Manufacturers Begin Implementing Price “Adjustments” Due to Memory and Storage Supply Shortages

    Everything was fine, prices were relatively stable until RTX came and nvidia suddenly started doubling prices every generation while at the same time showing the lowest raw performance increases between generations. But they "invented" DLSS to mask the lack of difference. DLSS and framegen are...

    Cyberpunk 2077 Celebrates Five Years Since Launch with a Special Anniversary Trailer, Trading Card Game, and More

    The bad thing is that part 2 is at least 5 more away. And I'm already 50% excited for and 50% dreading it due to moving development to the US.

    Buyout Deal Worth $82 Billion Could See Netflix Gain Access to Warner Bros. Game IPs Such as Batman, Harry Potter, and Mortal Kombat

    Unfortunately their managerial style is "if it ain't broke, make it for all audiences" and that will definitely break it.

    Buyout Deal Worth $82 Billion Could See Netflix Gain Access to Warner Bros. Game IPs Such as Batman, Harry Potter, and Mortal Kombat

    I don't think WB or Netflix understands why Hogwarts Legacy was so successful. They view it as an anomaly, not as a blueprint to follow. I doubt even its inevitable sequel will follow the blueprint. It'll loose touch with what made the first game a success.

    Industry-Wide Price Hikes Expected in 2026 as Manufacturers Begin Implementing Price “Adjustments” Due to Memory and Storage Supply Shortages

    Meh, I'm not as concerned, RAM is not a necessity. I can go longer without buying RAM than they can go without selling.

    CDPR Hopes to Finish the Upcoming the Witcher Trilogy Within Six Years, but Don’t Plan on Seeing Anything at This Year’s The Game Awards

    Phantom Liberty is literally the newest game I finished, almost 2 years ago. Nothing really excited me since then. I've started 2 or 3 new playthroughs of CP2077 since then, but I always get sidetracked and just go exploring random locations, trying to get to places you're not meant to reach...
