    NZXT Announces The Kraken G12 AIO GPU Cooling Bracket

    I was wondering about the rx480 too. Vrms are on the wrong side right? Maybe as long as you put heat sinks on them the fan creates enough airflow still?

    Hey that's my case in the soup kitchen build. Can confirm it is an excellent value.

    IBM Invents 'Resistive' Chip That Can Speed Up AI Training By 30,000x

    I like how nobody (like literally ever) entertains the idea that maybe, just maybe, total genocide might not be the first solution AI comes up with. That's just how humans deal with things, but I don't see why it's not equally plausible that a super-intelligent AI would figure out a way to help...

    Perhaps graphically, but personally I feel this is the most exciting TW game since I first discovered Rome:TW back in the day (back when "total war" came after the specific time period in the title!)

    Sony Shows Microsoft It Means Business @ E3

    I'd hate to agree with you, but you are probably right. My short experience with occulus was mindblowing but very uncomfortable. I love rollercoasters and all sorts of things that do nastiness to people's guts, but it felt like my entire body was rejecting the occulus. Headaches and motion...

    Steam Machines Will Not Be Major Profit Generators

    I don't understand what why people are so disappointed. Did everyone expect a $1000 worth of parts for $400? Does nobody understand that consoles are sold below cost and then profits come from game licensing? Does nobody understand that these are supposed to be just botique pc's made more...

    Bethesda Reveals Elder Scrolls Online Release Dates

    I just can't wait for all that immersion to get sucked right out the first time I see someone bunny hopping, or doing some goofy emote, or chatting with all caps on, etc. etc....

    Digital Storm Steam Machine Will Dual Boot SteamOS, Windows

    Weird that they would go with a titan when a couple of faster and cheaper cards just came out.
