    News MSI skips RDNA 4 and will not manufacture AMD Radeon 9000-series GPUs

    Not too surprising. Even as an AMD fan we all know many people will still choose Nvidia even if AMD has a better product at a cheaper price. They never really took AMD cards seriously anyways, their top end SKUs like the Suprim and liquid cooled version were for Nvidia cards only.

    News PlayStation VR2 Will Cost More Than PS5

    At $549 I don't forsee the PSVR2 flying off the shelves. It is cheap compared to something like an Index or Vive Pro but there's a reason why the Quest 2 is the top selling VR headset...price. Even Quest 2 sales have stagnated after the price increase. Aside from the Sony faithful and the...

    News Core i9-12900K Destroys Ryzen 9 5950X By 38% In Ashes of the Singularity

    I'd be quite disappointed with Intel if their new architecture couldn't outpreform AMD's 5000 series TBH. Though it still remains to be seen if Alder Lake will be competitive with the next gen AMD CPUs. Either way it just shows that real competition is a good thing.

    [SOLVED] Connecting rtx3090 to a PSU?

    Yes you can use your old setup, the GPU shouldn't have any issue running that way. I personally use 3 separate cables with 1 connector a piece to my 3090, although I have CableMod sleeved cables so there's no extra splitters dangling in the case. But that's just an aesthetic choice, it's not...

    That "Merc" graphic on the backplate looks absolutely horrendous.
