    Microsoft Shows Off Full Power Of DirectX 12 With Square Enix Demo

    The limiting factor for games is no longer hardware or software (on PC). It's budget. You want an amazing looking game, it will cost $100 million (Excluding marketing and distribution costs).. You can't recoup that on PC alone (you have to sell mm units to make an ok profit), so you end up...

    Sharp's 4K Smartphone Display Highlights OEM Tradeoffs

    1080p is all you need in a smartphone. I would only be interested in 4k for a tablet or desktop. I have no interest in anything in between because their is no native media for 1440p. Much more interested in seeing HDR, Rec 2020 etc...

    Nvidea and AMD are rumored to have new cards ready for us soon that will output 50% more then 980 GTX. They will be brutally pricey because they are 550 and will need massive cooling on 28nm. But when 20nm hits they will shrink them, drop the price and max out the clock speeds. By next Xmas...

    Sapphire's Vapor-X R9 290X 8GB: The More, The Merrier?

    This needs to be a Xfire contest in 4k @ MAX settings and custom texture packs. That's where 4GB MIGHT fall down. I know it's a very small segment of the population that runs this. Then I want to see the comparison to the Xone/PS4. I think people might find 90% is good enough when the option...
