    Acer's New Nitro XF2 Series Monitors Give Gamers an Edge With Astonishing Speed

    So, only casual gamers came here to bash a resolution on an e sports game monitor... Astonishing. Yeah mates, I also play Tomb Raider on an Oled 4k TV, but this kind of monitor has a different use case. Gosh.

    News of Lisa Su Leaving AMD Was an Exaggeration: "Zero Truth to This Rumor"

    AdoredTV alone spread more BS than all wccf tech articles in the last year, and most of you believed on 8 core/16t chips at 5ghz all core and 250€ price (lel). Wccf this year were the first ones reporting: 2070 super specs Navi pre launch price drop 9900ks MSI b450 max And the list goes on...

    ASUS ROG Strix XG438Q, the Largest 4K UHD FreeSync 2 HDR Gaming Monitor

    At this point, spending that much money on a 4k 120hz model without HDMI 2.1 makes no sense. Better luck next year.

    AMD Could Launch New Navi GPUs Soon

    The thing is that nvidia is not Intel. Nvidia is watching it with a big malefic laugh and ready to put something instantly on the market. They simply don´t need it at this point. They lead the market on pretty much every segment. They are alone at both the ultra high-end market and the mid range...

    Intel Starts Shipping 10 nm Ice Lake CPUs to OEMs

    So "Asian interner cafes" machines should not count for a statistic? Nice to know! Let´s be selective on wich machines matter for the stats :D 9700k is obviously better than 3600 for e-sports as it assures higher framerate. Look up on youtube for "3600 battlefield V multiplayer conquest Low...

    AMD Readies Larger 7nm "Navi 12" Silicon to Power Radeon RX 5800 Series?

    You just made my point even easier to understand. As you can see the only card wich it can compete against, uses 226w, way far from 300w. Thanks for the graph!! Why would I get a RTX 2080 similar card, using 80w more? Makes no sense to me, unless you tell me it is way cheaper. Wich we all know...

    Intel Starts Shipping 10 nm Ice Lake CPUs to OEMs

    Can you elaborate on why steamstats is flawed? So all that info is wrong and AMD is the one on 90% of the desktops? 9700k selling like hot cakes is not an anomaly. A lot of ppl waited for zen2 reviews to see gaming performance on esports titles (the most played games). And they run to the store...

    AMD Readies Larger 7nm "Navi 12" Silicon to Power Radeon RX 5800 Series?

    It needs to be cheaper. Reason : ray tracing. And yes, it does matter on the 2080ti. Not on the remaining rtx line up (almost useless).

    Intel Starts Shipping 10 nm Ice Lake CPUs to OEMs

    Did them? Afaik most of the desktops in the world are using Intel. Steamstats also agrees. I think ppl jump to drastic conclusions too soon. Meanwhile 9700k sold out in my country a week ago....

    AMD Ryzen 5 3500 a 6-core Processor

    Well if the performance is within 3% of the 3600, just like the 3600x, and price 160€, we have a new best seller. At the same time would feel bad for who paid 230€ for the 3600. A 3900 for 400€ would be a hit too, but that would canibalize the 3700x/3800x (wich arent interesting chips imo)

    Japanese DIY Market Goes Big on Ryzen: 68.6% Market Share for AMD

    It depends on the perspective. Here in Portugal the most sucessful chips are the obvious R5 3600 and.... The 9700k. 9700k even sold out a week ago. A lot of people waited for Zen2 reviews to see if Amd could beat intel on Esports titles/gaming. When they seen it didnt, 9700k started to sell like...

    SK Hynix Reports Second Quarter 2019 Results

    Dram prices will go up soon tho. In fact they are already in some countries, due to the Korea thing. Buy while you can, right now they are very cheap.
