Every phone and tablet sold vs hololense. I'll wait for the funeral.

Will local file search work now? Or is literally everything I type in a [watch your language] bing search still.

Christine with the ones I have at home (all tp-links) I have only ever had to replug after loss of power, and that is in a small house with old wiring. The previous place I was in was recently built but required a replug at least once a month. It seems really hit and miss, but over all I have...

A 290x with a +30% power limit can hit 12500 easily.... This card better be cheap, and I mean real cheap.

I know this is misleading, but actually no. The belkin has a gigabit network port but only manages 500mbps maximum transfer speeds. There are even offerings with 100mbps network ports on devices capable of 4 or 500 Mbps. They still get to say it will do 500mbps, but you will never actually...

It must be nice to have a personal mint for r&d being Intel. Don't get me wrong, they do a lot for open source and various other projects that don't directly make them money, but even open source is a massive value add for their main sources of income, they are a business. They however didn't...

http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/3758185 There is my latest run. I have the gigabyte 3 fan OC model so i knew i was getting an OK binned part. That score is with memory at 2000mhz (doesn't actually seem to affect anything) and the gpu at 1100/5800.

Another very happy ducky user. Those things are built as well as any other brand and are usually much cheaper.

4770k @ 4.4ghz. 16gb 1866 ram. Z97 gigabyte board. 750w power supply. Maybe these results are normal after all. But what the hell is with the results on 3d mark.

Yeah in not sure what's going on. After tracking down some fellow 290x owners it looks like these results are normal and the 3d mark ones are skewed, and by a lot apparently.

Hey all. Have a gigabyte 290x at 1100/5800 and I am disappointed with its performance. 3d mark shows many people scoring way higher with 290x's. Normaly I couldn't care less what other people get except that I am unsatisfied with its performance IN games. Over clocking the card the tiny bit to...

My advice is don't go into this expecting a lot. I have been disappointed by my 4770k as have a lot of others. I can run at 4.4ghz and 1.21 V but getting to 4.5ghz? Forget about it. 1.3V and climbing and still not stable. Let alone 20 degree celcius difference between cores. Some shocking...

Intel only :( my amd apu based server really needs something like this, its stock cooler is the loudest thing I have ever heard even at 1000 rpm.

Hey all, i am looking for some feedback on peoples fire strike scores notably just from those with 290x's or comparable cards. I am only getting 11383 as a graphics score and compared to the others on the 3d mark benchmark site that is REALLY low for a 290x. Any guidance is appreciated.
