Citing material and creating an accurate and non-sensationalist title isn't an acquisition from the forum. Surely you've had to cite material and describe it in your own words for a school project.
 
Sorry for being harsh, but as I said- this should have been learned/taught in school.

I'm sorry if I'm being too hard - I'm not trying to be a jerk, just giving constructive criticism. In the future, please refer to the sticky posted in this sub-forum on what the tech news posts should consist of. http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/11724-read-before-posting-in-this-section/

The sweg guy again. Too late mate.

you are not enthusiast if you are using AMD.

Multiplayer matchmaking is a one of gaming’s critical tasks, something that can make or break the success of a franchise that’s traditionally so multiplayer focused. Treyarch wants to improve upon the sometimes frustrating matchmaking and party interaction of its predecessors.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 introduces a virtual community space, the Safe House, a place to customize gear, spend XP and participate in multiple game modes far easier than before.When speaking to Edge magazine the head of Treyarch, Mark Lamia, pointed out that when they collected data from Black Ops 2, they saw that the matchmaking scheme already implemented was severely lacking. Playing with friends was difficult and it wasn’t easy sticking with the same group of people if you wanted to switch game modes quickly. So they’ve developed the Safe House, a community hub that should be able to facilitate a better way to play online.


“You’re going to know where friends are and what they’re playing. When we looked at data from Black Ops 2, we discovered that people were playing multiple game modes in a single session, and we realised we had to make that easier, especially now we have a co-op experience.”

Essentially, it sounds like it’ll be an in-game representation of a server browser combined with other functionality. Instead of using your mouse cursor to refresh the list of servers and see whose online, you can literally see where all of your friends characters are and join them from inside the game. Quite honestly Black Ops 3 is almost taking on an MMORPG-like approach to the social atmosphere being in-game and in-character.
It certainly is a step in the right direction to fix one of the most glaring issues that has faced the Call of Duty franchise lately. It’s had a similar interface and mostly identical inner-workings since Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
Treyarch wants to do a lot of new things with Black Ops 3, breaking the previous traditions that have only proven detrimental to the series. They’re taking the legacy seriously while also using Black Ops 3 as an opportunity to innovate in ways that it hasn’t in a long time.

 

How is TDP not an issue here?
It is the amount of heat generated, Q, measured in Watts.
 
If I am building a HTPC of small form factor, heat is a big issue.
 
If heat was not an issue...
GTX 480? R9-290X?

You know there's no real difference between calling an i3 a CPU and an A6 an APU right? By definition an APU is a processor and an iGPU on a single chip. Therefore an i5 4690k is as much an APU as an A10 7850K.
 
The only difference is that Intel keeps marketing their units as CPUs and AMD keeps up with the APU labeling because that's what they are. Accelerated Processing Units. The only ones that actually correctly deserve the CPU moniker are things like Xeons or the Athlon X4 860K that have no iGPU.

This has been talked about 100000x times.
Your YEARS late to the party.
 

I bought an AMD CPU because it would be a few months before I could afford an dedicated graphics card, and the APU served me well. And my other option was the 2 thread Pentium, which is starting to not be enough. Most of my games are a little old, and by the time I could afford a GPU that would be bottlnecked, I'd be able to afford an i5 too. It's not as bad as it sounds if you stick to the low end of the scale, bit I do recognize that Intel is objectively better in most cases. BF4 is the only game I can't keep above 60 fps, and I don't mind 45-50 fps.
