    DirectX 11.2 Exclusive to Windows 8.1 and Xbox One

    Maybe, but honestly, DX10 STILL pretty much is, as if it didnt exist at all. Power is the least important aspect of a console. Never was important. Never will.

    Microsoft Pulls a Fast One with E3 Xbox One Demos

    Hey, if those games were any good - they'd port it on PC. Never played Uncharted, and really not suffering from it, i already have a 20+ title backlog of great games on PC.

    AMD Accelerates Adobe Photoshop CC and Premier Pro CC

    This is nice and all, but how about some collaboration between AMD and Autodesk, so i can actually run my Autodesk application of choice with vsync turned on.

    Corsair Obsidian 350D Premium Micro-ATX Chassis Launched

    Worldwide, you say ? Outside USA their cases, specifically, are virtually unknown, as you cant buy them anywhere. Personally, i'd never buy a case with less than 4 3.5 bays. For 10$ extra you can have Fractal Define Mini which is a few steps ahead in its build (and Fractal actually sell their...

    HGST Reaches 10-Nanometer Patterned-Bit Milestone

    This is great n all, but how about making HDDs more reliable instead ? Right now quality is in the gutter, people are pretty much playing lottery when buying new storage. Who cares about bigger drives, if you dont know if it fails in a month or in a week ?

    Uh...Z68 ? MSI, this is 2013, i know you make good stuff for here and now, so why ?

    MAINGEAR Boosts Mobile Gaming with Lucid Virtu MVP Software

    But of course, everyone concerned already knows that Lucid software is simply put, a sham. It doesnt work, never have, never will. What is a mystery, however, is what hold do they have over motherboard makers, that they all included Virtu support and even use it in their ads ?

    Intel Intros Core i5-3439Y and Core i7-3689Y Dual-Core Processors with 13W TDP

    If i wanted a very weak, very cold, and very thin device - I'd get a tablet. Why would i want ultrabook that is just a little bit stronger but at 2-3 times the price ?

    Intel Intros Core i5-3439Y and Core i7-3689Y Dual-Core Processors with 13W TDP

    I thought the whole point of ultrabooks was that they are supposed to be notebooks with productivity on par with low-end desktops. 1.5 GHz isnt all that inspiring.

    Optical Disc Prices Could Rise by 50% in Second Half of 2013

    And yet...i have a working HDDs from 17 years ago, and hundreds of DVDs i burned 7 years ago are still perfectly readable. Whereas modern HDDs are pretty much a lottery, and you sigh with relief if they work problem-free for over a year. You can download it anytime THEY want, as many times as...

    Cooler Master Intros Elite 344 Silver Entry-Level Case

    No you cant. There are a few, but "lots" is not true. Many of them are just labeled mATX, but are just regular size. Or those weird HTPC cubes that dont really fit anywhere. People love their huge useless coffins.

    Cooler Master Intros Elite 344 Silver Entry-Level Case

    If only it wasnt so damn huge. 50x50x22...too much. Its funny that way, in 10 years hardware got smaller and colder, yet cases get bigger and bigger. I'm not sure why would anyone actually want to buy these huge coffins without a very specific reason, yet there is very little real selection in...

    Cooler Master Intros Elite 344 Silver Entry-Level Case

    You could, but it's ATX, this one is mATX, with quite appealing dimensions. Everything else doesnt look that great, but size is okay. If we're talking same price, Aerocool 200 or Fractal 1000.

    Zalman ZM-T1 and ZM-T2 Micro-ATX Cases Unveiled

    Unveiled ? They've been selling these for awhile now. And "under 40" is a very vague way of saying "its 10 bucks". Which tells you all you need to know about these.

    Thermalright Introduces the True Sprit 120M CPU Cooler

    I dont know, dont we already have True Spirit 90 for mATX with its 125mm height ? Which, i might add, still doesnt have any reviews or testing in english.
