    ASUS Launches the ROG Swift OLED PG27AQDM Monitor

    G-Sync "compatible"? So does it have the Nvidia module (hardware) or is it just software based?! So many people have no idea about the difference between G-Sync & G-Sync compatible monitors! I bought my son a $1,480 (including shipping & tax) 3080-12GB gpu! Of course I want a monitor that...

    ASUS Launches 300 Hz 27-inch WQHD ROG Strix Gaming Monitor with DisplayHDR 600

    I spent $1,480 on my son's AORUS MASTER 3080 - 12GB (sold & shipped by Newegg), so yeah, I really want a G-Sync compatible monitor - which means it won't have the G-Sync module (hardware) inside it. If I wanted cheap open source VESA/AMD adapted sync technology, I would have bought a Radeon...

    ASUS Announces the MA-25 Coax-to-Ethernet MoCA Adapter With Support for 2.5 Gbps Ethernet

    What's so ridiculous about this article is the mention of the green packaging & the effort ASUS uses to get it. lmao.

    Intel HEDT Platform to be Forked into Z399 and X599

    Wait, what?!?!?!??! Remember when these platforms used to be easy to understand? I just want an 8 core/16 thread cpu, would prefer 44 PCIe lanes (or more), but I guess will settle for the 16 lanes with the Z390 platform and the 9900k. At least I understand what's going on with that one. smh

    ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Hero Flagship Motherboard Detailed

    Not buying this garbage. ASUS should do a Formula verison. Just look at the Z270X ROG Maximus IX Formula, it's way better then this. This is the same as a Z270X Maximus IX Hero. Both of which are basic boards with few features. I noticed there are NO high-end X370 boards from anyone. None...

    AMD "Richland" Desktop APU Lineup Detailed

    True, SteamRoller was already designed, but Jim made changes to the design as soon as he got back to AMD. That's why it was delayed so the changes could be made. BullDozer IS a good processor. Try reading the above link and having an open mind doing it. More gamers chose the BullDozer FX...

    AMD "Richland" Desktop APU Lineup Detailed

    Why did you post a link to newegg for the A10? What's the purpose? I think you're closer than 6 beers from being a dumb drunk if you think Haswell is in the same class as AMD's APUs. Why compare apples to oranges? Although AMD is a better deal for most people. In fact, unless you just...

    AMD "Richland" Desktop APU Lineup Detailed

    I'm not sure why AMD released Richland as Kaveri will be released later this year. Richland is a refresh of Trinity with better graphics (like they needed them), a little better clock performance and a little better power consumption. Kaveri will be the true replacement for Trinity. For...
