    Battlefield V System Requirements Outed: Ryzen 7 2700 or i7 8700 as Recommended CPUs

    gpu culling has to be removed since you can now reflect from objects offscreen, that increases draw calls so also cpu requirements

    Samsung To Reduce DRAM Output Growth in Favor of Maintaining Prices, Says Bloomberg

    might aswell make them $1000 per 8gb stick, no one is going to buy memory at these prices anyway

    Samsung to Increase NAND Production Capacity in 2019, Upping Investment to $9 billion

    better fix (or maybe i should say - unfix) ddr4 and gddr5/6 prices first, we can live without massive ssds, but we cant live without enough ram or vram

    h310 boards finally i don't know what the point of making +100mhz cpu's is to be honest, you won't feel the difference anyway

    ASUS Intros VP228QG Entry-level Gaming Monitor

    ASUS Intros GeForce GTX 1060 3GB Phoenix Graphics Card

    joke of a card, why they would still sell 3GB cards mid-2017? it's barely enough to play new games at medium settings, soon you'll have to lower them down to low, RX 470 4GB is by far a better choice

    NVIDIA's AIC Partners to Launch GTX 1080, 1060 With Faster GDDR5, GDDR5X Memory

    NVIDIA's AIC Partners to Launch GTX 1080, 1060 With Faster GDDR5, GDDR5X Memory

    NVIDIA's AIC Partners to Launch GTX 1080, 1060 With Faster GDDR5, GDDR5X Memory

    for now, yeah since there isn't that many games that can use over 6gb at 1080p, but in a year or so there will be, and the 1060 will struggle

    NVIDIA's AIC Partners to Launch GTX 1080, 1060 With Faster GDDR5, GDDR5X Memory

    1060 has less memory and is more expensive, it does need the extra speed to compete
