    Thermaltake Unveils the Smart BM3 Bronze Series with ATX 3.0 Standards

    80+ bronze in this day when everyone else do at least 80+ gold, what kind of weakass components do they use? Hard pass.

    This Week in Gaming (Week 33)

    Yes the price is a bit high but I'd say it's well worth it and over 90% of players like it. My first playthrough was around 80 hours doing every side mission and not rushing through missions, so I guess normal playtime would be something like 60-90 hours. I like to compare it to the old...

    noblechairs Hero ST Black Edition Gaming Chair

    It can definitely not hold 150 kilo/330 pounds. I have the normal Hero and I weigh around 275 pounds. Within a year the undercarriage and wheels started to deform and now a bit over 2 years the gas spring now and then cuts out and can't hold the height of the seat. I can absolutely not...

    NVIDIA Cancels GeForce RTX 4080 12GB, To Relaunch it With a Different Name

    Thank you but I have no need for a 4090 at the moment and I very much want to see what AMD brings before I make a decision. I'm planning to step up to a 4K monitor come christmas but for now on 1440p my 3090 is more than enough.

    NVIDIA Cancels GeForce RTX 4080 12GB, To Relaunch it With a Different Name

    Very much depends on allocation, here in Europe where most cards will lighten your wallet by $2400-2600, when all taxes and currency conversion is done, sold out within 10-15 minutes in most countries, and to add insult Nvidia can't be bothered to sell the FE in most countries.

    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 PCI-Express Scaling

    Overall it's about the difference I expected. What surprised me though is the difference between individual games and at different resolution both within the same game and compared to other games, did not expect that big of a variance.

    AZZA Launches the Airflow Optimized PYRAMID 804M MESH Case

    Oh here's a great idea, lets use water cooling on this and put the radiator on the floor and have the pump at the highest point of the loop...

    AMD Ryzen 9 7950X Cooling Requirements & Thermal Throttling

    I've been looking for exactly this type of test so big thanks. Good air cooler runing at low enough fan speed to not be annoying and you only lose a few %, I can live with that easily.

    Intel Arc A750 & A770 Unboxing & Preview

    That's how you know RGB is an afterthought and not part of the original design of the GPU and card. Someone from marketing must have had a look at the finished card and asked 'where's the RGB, we must have RGB to be competitive' and all the engineers just cringe.

    Shadow of the Tomb Raider: XeSS vs. DLSS Comparison

    You're absolutely right about that, we've seen it so many times.

    Shadow of the Tomb Raider: XeSS vs. DLSS Comparison

    Not that I've noticed, always been blurry to one degree or another and I absolutely hate games that force it always on. I find it funny that we now have these upscaling techniques that look better and give more fps. Actually not that bad for a first try, could be great after another generation...

    Shadow of the Tomb Raider: XeSS vs. DLSS Comparison

    The funny thing is that XeSS and DLSS looks much better than TAA. Zoom in on the sitting man on the left and see for your self, TAA looks awful.
