    Just Buy It: Why Nvidia RTX GPUs Are Worth the Money

    I came here because this "news article" was lampooned by a YouTube channel I watch. It did not disappoint. Though to respond to the argument, especially using "Nvidia's own numbers" (helpfully debunked by Adored TV, who do great tech analysis btw) The benefits of owning the fastest graphics...

    What Will Intel Do?!

    From what I've seen and heard, AMD have produced a corker of an architecture, that Intel wasn't expecting and have no natural counter for. Much like the Athalon64 & x86_64 this came out of left field. As such, again, from what I've heard on't Tubes, Intel are looking at doing what you do when...

    should i upgrade my sapphire r9 380 4gb nitro to a RX480?

    As a "free" upgrade (presumably for 4GB 480?) all you really gain, besides better architecture, is a lower power draw. At least until you add a second 480. I'd wait for reviews first,

    Asus GTX 660 in an Asus P5Q Deluxe

    I got this from ASUS Techical support: The blue PCIe slot is definitely the recommended one for using a graphics card, but it is also possible to use the upper one of the black PCIe slots as well. To rule out a defective PCIe slot testing the other one would be good. Regarding if the GTX660...

    Gaming PC too slow for gaming!!!

    1600 Euro is $1800 and for that they gave you a 2 year old CPU and a 3 year old GPU? 2 years ago I replaced the guts of my PC. With an i5-4670K 16GB RAM a new Asus Premium Mobo and a GTX 660Ti it cost me 750 Euro, Retail. Late last year I bought a R9 390 which cost me 330 Euro, so 1100 in all...

    Graphics card that will max out any game at 1080p 60fps, while not being overkill?

    Depends on the game. I have R9 390 and I don't get a solid 60fps out of modded Skyrim (a game from 2011) at 1080p I know people who run Titan X's that have the same problem. For normal games at 1080p most decent cards will work, I have no problems with Witcher3 at max details for instance, but...
