Asian chip manufacturers and such are not happy about this, especially China: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-arm-holdings-m-a-nvidia-industry-anal/nvidias-arm-deal-sparks-quick-backlash-in-chip-industry-idUSKBN2650GT It will be interesting to see how this plays out... and if this backlash...

It will probably be a premium part, pushing Iris to mid-tier... Exact and real-world performance has yet to be seen though. As pointed out, paper specs don't tell the whole story unless comparing the exact same architecture. (but, even then...)

They haven't really released a single GPU of this new lineup... yet. I'll believe performance numbers once the hardware is actually on the market.

I haven't compared the two yet, but... does anyone know the differences between the Lancool II-X and the Lancool II (reviewed here)? Does it address some of the shortcomings?

No doubt. Not much is left to the imagination when the kid gets a lap dance..

I can't disagree with that. Again, I'll agree That's the way it works when you empty a magazine and the slide locks back: drop the empty mag, load a new one, and rack the slide. Racking the slide isn't a required step if you change mags before the last cartridge is fired. If you want to make...

Many stores have gone to limiting how much you can purchase at a time. There, of course, are ways around it, and the hoarding continues: partly because of the induced panic buying, partly because others see product not on the shelves, so they grab all they can get away with, in a panic of not...

It's a disappointment that it is only VR. It puts it's entry level on par with Crysis with it's high hardware demands when it was released. Not everyone is ready or willing to invest in VR still. (Some just have medical issues.) AND... IT'S NOT HALF-LIFE 3 :)

Best Buy To Our Customers, Across the country these past several days, you have come to our stores to buy the technology and household necessities that are so...

Even this one has more elements for performance: PCPartPicker Part List CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor ($289.99 @ B&H) CPU Cooler: Silverstone PF360-ARGB 94 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler ($129.99 @ Amazon) Motherboard: Gigabyte X570 AORUS PRO WIFI ATX AM4 Motherboard ($248.99 @...

7-zip has been uninstalled for a few reboots now. I'll definitely look at the DISM and SFC commands and see what that does. [update:] Oddly after the last reboot and my running the suggested tools: SFC said there was something it couldn't fix, yet DISM said there was nothing wrong. I did get...

NVidia driver installers, regardless of version report the 7-Zip fault. (old downloads that worked in the past or recent downloads) WinRAR reports no errors with the archives and I can unarchive them successfully manually. ESET Online scanner can't download and install latest databases, fails...

I see this article is the victim of cut and paste.... the how we tested header refers to the wrong card. How many other mistakes creapt in? Hopefully no more than in the headers used for formatting. Beyond that, THIS is a card to watch, or grab after a BIOS update, for right now.

This isn't the Atari of yester-year either. The name lives, but there is nothing left of the original company. The left hardware, went to software publishing only, and disappeared into their owner's IP portfolio.

I'm glad you know :) TJ is right in that EVGA offers a wide variety of PSUs that range in quality. The GQ series is probably the lowest I'd go with theirs... and even then I'd probably look for the newest of the series. The GS and the SuperNova G and P series are outstanding. The B series of...
