    AMD Posts Catalyst 13.12 WHQL Graphics Driver

    Been running it since yesterday, and on an HD-7850, no less. A quick check by anyone (including the writer of this asinine article saying that only Rx-series are supported) on AMD's own website (I know, original research takes time, which sucks) shows that the driver works for all GPUs from HD5K...

    Here's a Good Reason Why Microsoft is Buying Nokia

    I gotta use VS-2012 for school, and it is the most horribly-designed, slow-as-dog, buggy POS I've ever had the misfortune of using. No, wait, I take that back. Windows ME was that. VS-2012 is second...

    Three AMD 990FX-Based Motherboards For Enthusiasts

    Blizzard: Six "Proven Property" Titles by 2014

    I guess this is the case where less is more. Compared to a few other game developers/publishers pumping out a dozen half-baked releases a year, plus another dozen of complete and utter crap, with an occasional decent one (gotta give them some credit), I'd rather play one good game for a long...
