    Questions about Pascal and HBM

    Yeah, but what I'm wondering is if and how much of a performance increase wide can estimate seeing? will the enthusiast line from invidious see something like 20% increase in fps with pascal (from what the rumours tell us) or is it something else than just fps that pascal improves on?

    Thinking of switching out my 2x 770's for a new GPU

    Thanks for the replies guys :) I know the next big thing is always just around the corner, but given that the 980Ti is reported to arrive in june, would you guys expect a price drop in the other GPU's such as the 780 or do you feel the best thing is to get a gpu now and get it over with? :P

    Overall best headphones for gaming and music

I've had no experience with 2-way speakers/headphones that are said to be 7.1 or 5.1 but from...

    When would I need a sound card (bought Harman Kardon Nova)
