I ask that too. I'm holding off buying a CPU and GPU now. I'll wait to see if the last gen CPUs drop in price and for Intel's GPU unless they do some kind of bundle deal which is acceptable to me. I was all set for getting both but now they're getting a lot less, or none, of my money with these...

Hehe, I have two of these in the loft

Did anyone in the last 145 146 pages comment that the Infinity Cache looks a lot like the Xbox One's SRAM which they put in front of the DDR3 RAM that was used on that console (whereas PS4 went with GDDR5)? Edit: I read the first 70 pages so my in the last 76 pages

I'm pretty sure that the only reason that the 3080 was released on the GA102 die is that AMD said that from the outset that big navi was going to be a halo 4K product on advanced N7 node from TSMC and Nvidia pretty early on probably knew that they were going to be behind on die density with...

It takes a long while, like the lifetime of a console but most games start to default to the new standard. There's is still some bias towards AMD in DX12 (in that AMD are most competitive here.) You're right that usually there's not a lot of bias because game engines have to work well on a lot...

The problem is that AMD's implementation is going to be heavily optimised for via consoles. Also, we've been here before with tessellation, where the boot was on the other foot where AMD had the dedicated hardware functionality.

Okay

So what's this that I've missed about AMD's RT being inferior to nVIDIA's?

I've gone a couple of days without a post as I need to get myself to Halfords to get some deionised water; which is going to be a Saturday morning job. I'm going to boil it to flush my radiators before I go about putting the rest of the loop together; I've got some Mayhem's pure H2O for...

So, for today, I've installed the GPU block on my VTX R9-280X. Pictures: Everything ready Four screws and the cooler is off Seven more and the backplate has come off Off with the VRM heatsink Clean up the thermal gunk Apply the thermal pads and some more thermal paste...

Hi guys! I'm starting the final leg of my journey to build a long lasting gaming rig (hehe, I may upgrade to dual S2011 next year for PCIe v3 slots/SATA 3 ports/USB3 ports; so not that long lasting.) This is my very first custom watercooling build, having dipped my toes and been impressed...

So far I've picked out the following waterblocks. http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-226-EK http://www.coolingconfigurator.com/waterblock/3831109856291 http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-309-EK

Hi guys, I've put together a build that currently using that I've posted in the Corsair 750D builds forum but this is only at the halfway point. I'm now looking to fully custom watercool it so that I can also fit in my R9-280X with my main card for some crossfire fun. So, I've got a 750D...

I've got mine running as a work in progress at the moment. I've sunk over £570 into it so far and with me planning on watercooling the processors and GPUs it's going to end up much closer to £1000 Notes, I need to get some longer SATA cables and in black. I've left the two PCIe power cables...

It is a great starting point because it's likely to be the smallest improvement that you might see. As soon as there is any kind of CPU limitation involved the performance difference just grows with it.

8% isn't to be sniffed at. Likely a few small API efficiency savings adding up with more cores. Fewer thread locking issues interfering?

I work as a sys admin at a Web firm too. We host on AWS and Rackspace clouds so use a lot of things like load balancing auto scaling and elasticache for availability and resiliency. Ubuntu server 12.04 LTS is used pretty much exclusively. We tend to use postgres, nginx, memcache, although...

Well, if you'd been mining since December, like I have, then you'd have paid off your card(s) already :) I think that it's good to get Mantle out now. It's an early beta and yes GCN 1.0 doesn't seem to work as well as the GCN 1.1 cards. That will be resolved in the coming months. As will...

Tested at Auto settings 1920x1080 on HD7970, got <26fps at all times and everything was struggling to draw. Whole game/game interface was sluggish and not even the grass was being drawn. Also, I noticed that Mantle had a 1/2px light boarder around the whole screen that I was running on; anyone...

Erm, as far as I'm aware none of those consoles can play against the others. So in terms of communities, PC is the largest community of players who can play against one another. You've completely missed that point.
