    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Super Founders Edition

    I disagree with this reviews comments regarding the 7900XTX. AMD's offerings this generation perform very well in rasterization, which is still the normal on 98% of the games. Rasterization performance was considered the normal way to measure a cards up until ray tracing was released and it...

    Cooler Master Demos Prototype "Project VGA Cooler" at CES

    If they can get the compatibility correct, add RGB, get the price right, and make the thermals worth the change... I like this idea a lot! It looks clean! I like this idea over using zip ties and using your own 92mm/120mm fans. I think it could be fun for the modding community also! (Paint it...

    Bahahahaha! Who doesn't stare at their builds? Nothing wrong being appreciative of your own work IMO! I Agree with your thoughts good sir!

    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Could Get 23 Gbps GDDR6X Memory with 340 Watt Total Board Power

    This is the trend in ALL Journalism. Report the first thing you hear, damn the facts, don't check references, and never retract anything. All journalism has turned into the Jerry Springer rumor mill. (Politics, Tech, Economics, Crime, all of it!) TPU at least used to say things like "Take...

    Intel Core i9-13900K Raptor Lake Processor Goes on Sale on Black Market

    It might be a scam from the perspective that when the buyer purchases the CPU, the seller might send them something else, yes! But I can confirm for everyone here that Raptor Lake engineering samples are out in the world. know this because I have held multiple of them and tested many of them...

    GIGABYTE's Project Stealth Computer Assembly Kit Leads to Sleek System Builds

    I agree with you! I like this idea and it makes for a really clean build. Moving the connectors to the rear also makes a lot of sense and if it is standardized, I could even see a reason to redesign power supplies to remove the cables. But you are correct, this has to be more then just...

    Intel Formally Announces Arc A-series Graphics

    I would have liked them to show their FPS slides against AMD or Nvidia Laptop equivalents. Not Iris.

    NVIDIA: Gamers Spend $300 More on Ampere GPUs Than Previous Generations

    I'm in the same boat! I so badly want to upgrade, but my Skylake CPU and GTX 1070ti FTW still plays everything at Max Settings. So really all Nvidia and AMD are accomplishing is stopping their base customers (like me) from buying new. And that might be ok for right now while they are making...

    Thousands of Mislabeled XFX Graphic Cards Worth $3.15M Seized by Chinese Customs Authorities

    I completely agree with your statement! Do shady business happenings occur all over the world...Absolutely! However, Chinese businesses are well known for these type of activities. Their government encourages it (and this comes from someone who works in the technology field and my business needs...

    PC Building Simulator 2 Announced As An Epic Games Exclusive

    I see your point. It could be fun from that perspective.

    PC Building Simulator 2 Announced As An Epic Games Exclusive

    This game makes me laugh! First what's the point of building a PC virtually? Second, I think the only reason something like this is viable is because you can't find the parts in real life. And if you can, you need to sell your first born to be able to afford the parts.

    Intel's Global CPU Market Share is on the Rise, AMD Starts the Downfall

    I find some of these comments so funny. Every time AMD is up the AMD fans rush in and down talk Intel. Every time Intel is up the same thing happens but in reverse. In some cases, some of the people spouting praise for Intel or AMD are the same people who down talk them months later when...
