    $500 Extra for an SSD? How to Avoid Price Gouging When You Buy a PC

    You're not suggesting people wait to upgrade and not get all the features right away, are you? What about ray tracing?

    Gigabyte Aero 15 X9 Gaming Laptop Review: RTX Works, AI Bores

    MSAA really kills the frame rates in GTA V. I suspect that they are using it and maybe some other advanced graphics which is why the frame rates are so low. Kind of silly I don't use MSAA on a laptop, or even on my 24" 144 hz at home, because frame rate hits simply aren't worth it. I don't...

    AMD Ryzen 7 2700X vs Intel Core i7-9700K: Which CPU is Better?

    I don't know how often you folks think people upgrade, but I have a i5 3570k and a r9 290. Upgrading the gpu to a 1080 doesn't help my fps much (25%), but the 9600k i just put in added over 50% fps at 1080p with no MSAA. I have no interest in gaming at 4k (who can tell when the action is rough...

    Razer Blade 14 (2016) Gaming Laptop Review

    You must be using settings inappropriate to a 14" screen in gta v. I get those framerates in the native resolution on my 4k Blade. But I don't use AA or any advanced settings, everything else besides shadows and water is on very high.

    Digital Storm Aura Gaming AIO PC First Look

    No G Sync? 60 Hz? I agree, given the premium over cost these options should be at least available. Also, I would have liked to see addressed how much heat is created with the blower pointing down and, perhaps, just slightly towards the gamer (given the top of monitor often sits behind the...

    RAM Overclocking Guide: How (and Why) to Tweak Your Memory

    How about some measurements to show the alleged benefits of overclocking memory? I have never seen a significant impact on gaming performance even from significant overclocks / reduced timings in memory. I'd be interested to see how much the benefits are and where exactly they exist, if they do?

    dual channel 2 + 2 GB, or single channel 1 + 4 GB?

    I am assuming different sized memory sticks don't run in dual channel. Need to upgrade old MacBook (it was free, don't hate me). It has 1 + 1 ram. Should I ditch both and go 2 +2, or ditch one buy a 4 and go 1 + 4

    Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB Review

    Do you run these games for a little bit before running the benchmarks? I notice in your R9 390 something I see when I first start up GTA V with my R9 290, the long time between frames occasionally. This occurs when I first start up the game but after a couple of minutes it goes away.
