I meant to say, core i7 920 before, but left off the 920

I'd never pick a cpu that's best for gaming even though I run games. But I guess there might be some out there that only run games. I do a lot of things with my computer and don't mind pay an extra $100 for performance. I just have an intel i7 from a year or so ago. At $199, It's neither too...

Love after mac users are told about having to wait for great software, or do without, they stand by their over priced, over rated, and slow machines. Then when something like duke nukem forever comes out, they sit there panting and hoping in desperation for a glimmer of hope that it just might...

What core race? core wars? LOL. Newell is trying to bring up a distant past Ghz competition between the two rivals, and basically pretend that it's still going on, but now it's all about cores. This was back when amd couldn't keep up in clock speed, so they began to bash Intel to say it...

"Why do we keep seeing Nvidia's card using more system power?" BECAUSE One of them were going to end up using more than the other, DUH! Unless they were the same piece of electronics! How much electric used is the LEAST IMPORTANT ISSUE! If you used the GTX over the 5970 for 4 hours a day, for...

@iocedmyself, it sounds like you almost know about graphics, but I think you are making some mistakes. She's talking about how if it's far away the complexity of the 3d model is diminished. Had it tried to keep track of all 18,000 strands at that distance it would not have gotten 500+ fps...

sorry if these comments go somewhere, but this posting system sucks.

To those saying the hair looks like it's underwater, you didn't watch enough of it. Watch at 2:18 with the wind speed sped up. It looks perfectly fine! Also at 60fps+ is more than enough for fast moving hair. I'm not sure why the head shake looks slower, but obviously there is enough speed...

shin0bi272 "It basically said if your gpu is designed to run hot then why is the amd 5870 running 5-10% slower than yours at half the power?" Only an overclocker would understand this. When you get to a certain level of performance, the heat/power trade-off becomes exponential. In other...

I'll also add... If the card works as advertised and is slightly faster than radeon it seems like it's not such a big deal that it warrants complaining. I mean if you put it in the case and in a month or two you've forgotten about it, and it's there working just fine, and nothing has been...

It's obvious that Nvidia wanted to be FASTER than the radeon card. This card was meant to be released 6 months back and compete with the radeon, but it didn't make it. That said, it wasn't required that it be any faster at all. Just competitive. However again, they made it faster and with...
