    News Windows 10 Update's Latest Casualties: Action Center, Network Adapters

    I'm sorry, but are the autoplaying ads that follow you around the page necessary? I know this isn't related to the article, but it definitely impacted my experience reading it. If I scroll away from something, it means I don't want to look at it anymore. It's not a hard concept.

    Review Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Super Review: Leaving Navi In The Dust

    I mean, yes it has more memory, bandwidth, and shaders, but apparently that all accounts for a 6% increase in performance which is well within an overclock range on a 2080. That means that the only real selling point this has is the price drop. Although, as someone has said, you can already get...

    Review Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Super Review: Leaving Navi In The Dust

    "Even more so than GeForce RTX 2060 Super and 2070 Super, the 2080 Super looks very, very similar to its predecessor" TLDR It's basically just a price drop. You could overclock your founder's edition for the same performance increase.

    News GeForce RTX 2070 Super Beats Radeon RX 5700 XT In FFXV Leak

    "It should be taken into consideration that test systems' specifications and testing environment are unknown to us. Additionally, Nvidia was part of Final Fantasy XV's development, so the title favors the Green team. With everything considered, take the numbers with a bit of salt. " This should...

    Can't wait to see it implemented and benchmarked. So far, Nvidia has had to work directly with developers to optimize their ray tracing to any satisfactory level. It would be fantastic for everyone if AMD found a workaround that give developers more flexibility.

    News DigiTimes: Intel to Slash Desktop Processor Pricing up to 15 Percent

    I don't know why the author says this sounds fantastical. It was going to happen sooner or later with all the troubles they are facing. I don't think 10-15% will be enough though.

    News  Report Predicts Surging Laptop Prices Amidst Tariffs

    Did anyone actually look at the report? I legitimately don't understand why everyone is just saying it is just "scare tactics." China exports 90% of laptops to the US. It also outputs 35 times more than its closest competitor, which means companies will be hard pressed to shift production to...

    Review Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 6GB Review: Turing Without The RTX

    If this card has just okay performance at 2k, then what is the selling point? I can get a RX 580 that performs spectacularly in 1080p for like $100 less and it comes with two free games and 8Gb VRAM.

    News Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Seemingly As Fast As GTX Maxwell Titan X At $279

    Lol the wording in that title is so ridiculous. "Seemingly as fast as a GTX Titan X" sounds way more impressive than "1070 with less VRAM."

    Core Combat: Intel Xeon W-3175X vs. AMD Threadripper 2990WX

    How can you not see that by not assigning weights to each category, you ARE assigning a weight? You just assigned a 1 which implies that they are all equal. You are being disingenuous by saying you just present facts when you clearly have a weighted system at the bottom of the review. That table...
