The next generation of consoles - not the refreshes - are expected around 2027. So far AMD have provided both CPU and GPU to both Sony and Microsoft, to their considerable profit. But by that time Intel will have had 3 generations of Arc under its belt. That will have given them a track record...

I was thinking about low-end gaming and wondered how cheap you can get, and I specced a full system for £550. I went elsewhere than OCUK so no links, but I specced a Ryzen 3600, 16 GB RAM, and decentish B450 mATX motherboard in a bundle of £200 for the three; a RX 6600; a reputable 550W Bronze...

On my A770 4k medium settings looks pretty damn good and I get about 60 fps. Easily good enough to play. Excluding RT, obviously. How does this compare with consoles? Can a RX 6600, RTX 3050, or A750 match or better a PS5 or new Xbox at 4k?

They get comparable results with a Ryzen 3300 and a GTX 1060 - 1070. Wow.

Hi, im currently playing on a BenQ RL2455HM 24 inch Gaming Monitor (for Console e-Sports, 1 ms Response Time, Black eQualiser, Flicker-free, HDMI x 2, Built-in Speakers) (i know its old now) looking to upgrade the monitor... would be a great if any of you guys could help. take it easy on me, i...

With the next generation of consoles Microsoft is offering a hire-purchase deal. Pay a small monthly payment - effectively 0% APR too - for two years. With GPUs costing the same (give or take) as consoles, offering this sort of deal would nullify the price advantage of consoles.

With the acquisition of ARM, Nvidia has CPUs and GPUs covered, just like AMD. Bidding for the next generation of consoles should be settled in about 5 years. That's just nice time for Nvidia to integrate its processes and produce a next-generation console. What do you think?

Can someone explain how you use Audio Return Channel on new TVs, please? Do you plug your soundbar into the HDMI with ARC connector on the TV and then your devices like PC/console into the soundbar? Or do they still get plugged into the TV in other HDMI ports and the TV magically splits video...

What is everyone guess for the console bundles deals for the Ps4 Pro and Xbox One X on Black Friday? Ps4 Pro Red Dead + another AAA game for £299 Xbox One X Red Dead + Forza Horizon + Forza for £349 Or do you think prices will drop lower or will they bundle more games?

After the Speccy Vega thread I was wondering if there have been any decent retro remakes of console or computers? Quite a few have come out in recent years but to me the vast majority are junk. Here is a list of the ones I know - feel free to add more and I'll update the list. I don't own any...

I moved into a house where I no longer have space in my room for roomscale VR, so looking to transplant some of my PC guts into a new case to use in a different room and keep a reasonably powerful machine in my room for video editing/general YouTube browsing etc. I saw an Alienware Alpha case...

Anyone ever customised their own controls? Just been reading up on how Custom Controllers in Leeds is now turning over £700,000 a year after its founder started selling them from his bedroom a couple of years back. Another of those 'why the hell didn't I think of that?!' ideas!! :mad: Top work...
