    EU Plans to Add 3% Tax On Tech Giants' Revenue Based on Customers' Location

    Pay fair taxes in the place the ethically earned money was generated. Problem is that "fair" is not defined and ethically is only what corporations can´t get away with. We all know that the actual money those companies pay on their profits is totally unequal to what smaller, local ones have to...

    Cryptocurrency Report: 46% of 2017's ICOs Have Failed Already

    I expect that eventually 90% of them will fail, even the "progressing" ones. Simply because most of them have very overlapping ideas, and in the end only a few will survive. Same with all them coins

    Microsoft Office 2019 Will Run on Windows 10, and Only Windows 10

    I see 14% respond with a "yes" in the poll. If that means that 14% switches from another OS to Win10; means a shift of 7% marketshare to Win10 (bit more than 50% is not on Win10) That´s reason enough for MS to push this

    DX12 games are growing in numbers, making this more relevant day by day.

    New Performance Benchmarks of AMD's Vega Frontier Edition Surface

    Well, this sounds.....PROMISING!!!! I vividly recall that the "realistic" guess was that it(the actual gaming card with drivers some months old) would preform between 1070 and 180 speed. I see now that the FE with like alpha drivers is achieving those values already. So add the extra speed of...

    AMD "Polaris" Based Radeon RX 570 and RX 580 Pictured

    Nothing much to see here tbh, just an update of their RX4xx line. Which is a GOOD line and a preference over the NV-line in their segment.;)

    Ashes of the Singularity: Escalation Update Brings Improved Performance to Ryzen

    Very good job by AMD, if I hadn´t bought me a 6700 last year, I would be buying a Ryzen right now.

    AMD Reveals Ryzen 7 Family, Pricing, and Radeon Vega Logo

    ALL ABOARD....THE HYPETRAIN!!! Destination: whooping some fanbois The claims AMD are making are so way beyond expectations that even if the reality is less, it´s still a small wonder what they did. You simply cannot minimize the achievement here. The complacency that AMD´s rivals had will now...

    AMD's Ryzen R7 8-core, 16-thread Processor Prices Outed for Europe

    There are only 3 types without a "PRO3 or an "X"; meaning these are the baselines for R/I3 - R/I5 -R/I7. Seeng the "low" pricing for the regular 1700; but still above i7-7700(?); they must be DARN SURE that they will outperform intel. Which is a good thing, forcing Intel to turn-up the heat in...

    Tom Clancy's "The Division" Gets DirectX 12 Update, RX 480 Beats GTX 1060 by 16%

    I would just love to have you be right. However, M$ wasn´t "pushed" as an accomplice; but they stole the concept of Mantle and incorporated that to counter AMD. (and lose market share&influence) What is true is that the ngreedia fellows tried to milk this stagnation for as long as possible...

    New RX 480

    I would´ve waited for the VEGA, and possible even further pricedrop of the 480. But it certainly isn´t a bad choice at all. So yes, its ok. Just try to sell the 280x 2nd hand before the launch of the vega

    Vega, Massively faster than GTX 1080 in DOOM 4K.

    Now that is something that won´t happen with AMD. One of the few things we can relay on with AMD is that their cards perform better in time. Some extra quicktime(see what I did there) isn´t going help.
