is it though? All the growth in gaming seems to not be in areas where you need high performance PCs. Just going off a hunch - I would bet its still in mobile F2P titles with whales, and titles intended to run on a potato and sell funny hats - like Fortnight and TF2 You don’t need discrete...

The folks who have to have "the best"

It's not just bad updates Ads AI everywhere Hoovering of your personal data and not being transparent about it Edge keeps mysteriously setting itself to default... WTF happened to notepad? All these years later and it's still a mashup of old and new UI elements - the classic Control Panel vs...

This is exactly what came first to my mind too.

Frame Gen tech has me concerned on two fronts. Maybe my concerns aren't valid, but it's enough to leave me unimpressed and not excited. First - Fidelity. Is what you are seeing what the developer intended? It may look beautiful, but if it's not what the developer intended, then you may as well...

Interesting. I've often seen arresting diodes on coils to prevent inductive kick, but first time I've seen a bleeder used like this external to equipment. I do like how you are using the diodes to make the 12V PSUs redundant parallel supplies.

I have to say, as a long time Mac OS user myself - I don't think you are wrong. MacOS isn't exactly trending in a great direction. Most of the time I use my Macbook - it's either Excel and email, and increasingly just CLI unix tools. The ARM macbooks are excellent hardware, but MacOS (well...

The good ‘ole days when Intel CPUs went for four figures

Yeah the fact that Intel drove Optane into the ground is flabbergasting. That was a great tech. There were a lot of missteps by Intel - the massive bloat of the 00/10's followed by the inevitable divestiture of those techs. McAfee was a good example. The Drone division, remember that?

Well, nVidia isn't TSMC-exclusive either. For instance: Samsung made the entire 3000/Ampere series, and a good chunk of 1000/Pascal series.

I hit this point about 10 years ago. It's saved me a ton of money on computer parts (which I then went and blew on car parts)

Kinda surprised CP is so low (relatively)

cash talks

I loved that game but it was glitchy

Marathon was a good game back in the ‘90s — the Mac equivalent of UT or Quake really. But, you know, since it was on the Mac (in the 90s no less) only like 15 people ever played it. Kind of a precursor to Halo, before MS bought them out and made it exclusive

I mean, it works... it booted and ran all that stuff. So that's a big something right there. Maybe not "serious contender" something, but it's more than I've done in my garage with silicon, for sure.

A shame they are looking at ruining the original game's legacy here

My new leading question in motherboard reviews: But how is the CMOS battery mounted? And it does get answered here in this review folks!

Nice. I was thinking about upgrading a couple of the computers in my house but.... nope. Not any more. I think you got a decent deal considering today's climate though. Kid is still rocking an old AMD 5600XT - but he has a job now and doesn't care about graphics, like... at all. He would play...

This is what I feel is happening. I have no data to prove this.
