Actually in my own post I stated they could also post 1440p results for those that want to see how a given CPU scales up and performs. It is extra work for the tester but probably worth it in the long run. Judging from a few of the comments it looks like there are quite a few that don't...

Yea Doom Eternal is great both as a game in general and how well it runs on pretty much anything. I only have a i7 2600K@5.1GHz and a Vega 56 bios flashed to Vega 64 bios for the extra HBM2 and core clock speed. I max out Doom ET and only use 1080p it hits some very high frame rates on the...

Nice review thank you. I see all of these comments on you used 1080p res and today's gamer's do not use that. Or who would game on a 2080Ti at 1080p. This is a CPU review guys not a GPU review and with that said using 1080p even on the high end GPU like a 2080Ti allows each of the CPU's to...

Whatx86 instructions? I am gonna say all of them. Programs that run on x86 make up at least 99.99% of the market on PC and PC Mac. It is gonna be pretty hard for Apple to try to replace that in a short time frame with their non x86 programs. Yes they may at some point do it but that is a long...

Lets face it all of these so called exploits which will never happen in the real world because lets face it most of the guys that write exploits are not smart enough to know the inner workings of a CPU but yet these researchers keep on spewing out exploits they have found and then review sites...

I use ad blocker on Tom's now days. I never used to but about 2 years ago things got so bad with clickbait ad's and crap popping up every where on the page whenever I came to read stuff here I decided enough was enough and popped on ad blocker. I do not mind pages that have ad's but when the...

So with Geforce Now! you have to still buy the games to be able to play them through the service. So what business is it of those companies if I chose to play them from the Geforce Now! service or off of my own hard drive. I paid for the right to play them which gives me the license and the...

Nice audio card for sure. I am no fan of onboard audio and my personal opinion is only use it in a pinch if you have nothing else. Yes they have brought it to a point where it is almost usable but with most everybody using Realtek chips which barely passes for basic audio output and relies...

Yea I was wondering the same thing as to why these companies would be pulling out of this. Some have said that maybe some of these companies want ot make their own streaming services and do not want their games tied into this service for that reason. To me that does not make very much sense...

"Pay more for less" Yep this seems to be the new mantra for pretty much everything now days. You see almost every company doing things like reducing box or package size with less inside but still keep the price the same or even have the gull to raise the price because well somebody has to pay...

They are saying Qualcomm as being anti competitive yes they may or may not be but if this is true then how is it no one goes after Apple for doing this when they are known to be one of the worst offenders on the planet for having these types of practices. This is just my opinion on all of this.

Yea maybe they should worry about getting PCI-e 4.0 out the door before going to PCI-e 5. It seems everyone is in such a hurry these days to get the tech out asap because the older tech that probably came out like 1 year earlier is so slow now yet when it came out a year before it was labeled as...

I know very little about mics like these but from what I have seen they do sound very decent. For my own needs I just use a headset but then again I just talk to friends online and do not do anything else that would require a complex mic setup. My own headset is a decent enough Turtle beach...

Hmmm...no thanks I can tweak my own computer system on my own thank you very much and besides that this app probably uses up a bit of resources by itself so you also have to take into account the loss of those resources such as some system emory and CPU/GPU cycles.
