Wish You a Happy 2013!
TechPowerUp wishes you an awesome New Year's. 2012, the purported "Ides of March" for some, has come to pass without incident. For the tech world, it's been another eventful year. We look forward to 2013 with even more zeal, especially the kick in the butt that every new year brings to us: International CES, second week of January, and our on-ground coverage from 'Vegas.
So how was your 2012, and what do you most look forward to in 2013? |

For me, 2012 was a kind of turbulent year in some ways but I made it through. I hope 2013 goes better, graduating for my bachelor and this time no frigging family matters. I will also look forward to the release of Metro: Last Light, a new HDD I will order using C-mas money soon and scoring more BOINC points.

I look forward to many things this new year. Tech related, I am looking forward to the watercooling gear I just ordered.

2012 was pretty good to me. Got a job I would never expected for myself seeing how im 19 and havent graduated college yet with a degree. Im a Lab Engineer at Microsoft working on rack mounted servers. Im pretty stoked for 2013 though. New Monster Energy Supercross season, new project plan for my rig, and transferring to a university to experience some of that real college life!

It was a pretty turbulent year due to family and studies related issues. I hope 2013 turns out well. And I hope that Nvidia get rid of their damned GPU Boost. Or at least allow OEM's to make Custom Versions with GPU Boost disabled. And I hope AMD fares out well.

In 2012 it was transitioning from the military to a civilian job. Couldn't have found a better job.
In 2013 I look forward to: Running a few marathons, building a new computer, creating a website for my hometown, and buying a new house.

Had a immediate DejaVU readi'n The Ides Of March
METAL ON with true music :P Happy new year mates. We all been milked like cows with intel selling the same, fake Thailand flooding damages, half crippled GPU's selling at full price etc  But next year? Quad HD expansion and USB3 reign as mobile chip-sets will have it natively also. ARM breakthrough more firmly in the server pie... overall smart-phones will start to eat up PC share, as the will become as portable core where you can attach mouse and monitor and use it as a workstation. I forgot to add... we might expect next gen consoles at the last quarter of 2013.
