  1. Downloading upgrade right now with a low but steady 320Kb/s. So microsoft thought about me complaining of youtube not working for some reason (if i were not a tech guy, this is what would be happening)
  2. there is jail for that. Not everyone, the earth is round....
  3. It's all about overclocking here. AMD failed to deliver efficiency at high voltage, like first gen GCN did. It did do a remarcable job at making this card, but god rekt by nVidia when it killed TitanX by launching 980ti. That's what titans are for if you think about it.
  4. If this succeeds, we will have a major step in mining the space and potentially saving the planet from...us.
  5. ~150W OC + 250W TDP=400W at least for a mild overclock.
  6. So....back to waiting for a new generation? Nope, I'm sick of it.
  7. Overclocked a laptop display to 120Hz and a simple scroll demolish Chrome right now using Edge.
  8. Total BS. Something stinks here...why woudn't they wait Edge to become a little more mature so it can beat chrome at every test? I mean...traffic for them, right?
  9. I suck at multiplayer games. Mostly because I get rekt the second I press the play button and I quit. But I don't harass women. Thruth be told, I do harass that rich annoyng guy who is harassing a girl and she is too scared or even too used to this behavior...if a kick in the but is considered harassing that is.
  10. Or at least enable "Ask Cortana" in Edge? I'm kinda getting used to this Edge feature, no need to open new and newer tabs and forget what I was doing in the first place.....
  11. General performance should be generally the same, especially with a gaming rig. Any hiccup should be fixed by a clean install (you can even reset it from settings, no usb disk required anymore). I upgraded from Windows 7 Home Premium OEM legit copy by searching en_windows_10_home_10240_x64_dvd.iso on google and everything went smooth, including activation wich was not needed. (I did have the windsows 10 tray icon in there.) Update: Cortana is kinda resource heavy when it indexies but is really usefull and you can turn it off, wich it is after installing my native language pack sandly...
  12. Modern HD H.264 videos can't be rendered that easily on very old hardware, no matter if its chrome, ie or even VLC. The perfect solution is to get a computer stick that's a lot more powerfull that those XP machines that barely meet Win7 requirements. Also, starting with IE9, there is nothing that bad being stuck with this browser...especially at work or school where you shoudn't even have a complete internet connection. (aka proxy server for bandwich cap and other nastyness)
  13. can't enable vsr in with card.
  14. Virtual super resolution is now supported by my 7970. Holly balls!!!
  15. I stopped watching at 0 where he mentions "heat" instead of "temperature". Heat=power consumption transformed. Temperature is related but it is not the whole story, not even close!
  16. This is more of a demo for tracking and recognizing shapes in 3D. By the end of our lives, we will have a complete 3d map of the earth and the technology to transfer our memories via Braini-E 1.0 X16. So we'll live in a virtual reality with a virtual brain until we forget it's virtual.Great place to be as a old man or as a criminal or both. [sarcasm] Until then, a zombie hoard chasing me in my house with the bites giving me a slight pain from low amp high voltage electrods placed all over my body sounds...weird but cool and technology is almost here.
  17. Fx 8350/20 is still a good enough CPU for gaming today. "Upgrading" to Intel, doesn't worth the money unless money is not that much of a problem for you. Yes, I woudn't buy it for a new rig and I woudnt upgrade and ease my wallets pain by making a thread like this either. I do hope DX12 gets me closer to i5 in gaming.
  18. Stableish build, very close to RTM. Found my new favorite browser and waiting for search engine change and addons. MAN i love that smooth scrolling of EDGE.... Don't like the new wallpaper, that smoke reminds me of Youtube's compression artifacts....
  19. I think we should be more quiet about pirating, the use of adblock and even "free windows 10 for insiders". We are a special kind of people, we should only teach our children "how to get a free movie" so that everything will remain unchaged. Just like lockpicking before Google was a thing.
  20. Am I the only one who finds this guy annoying? His acting does not remind me of a real tech enthuziast...but a lucky guy who has a lot if views. Linus has his charm with his bad jokes and unknowledge. /nohomo
  21. Just a thought: if AMD rebranded everything at the same scale of performance, they'll "throw" even more engineers at the (drivers) problem....right? Or at least this should be the last DX11 shitperforming game on my card....right? (DX12 just around the corner)
  22. I'm Romanian. Romanians get 1000/200 Mbps REAL speed at monthly $13.75 in urban area. We are welcoming if you wanna change your location! )
  23. My experience with a FullHD TV and a modern laptop: (Core i3 some gen). connect them with a HDMI cable: ugly crop or blurry (interpolated) 1080p output. connect with....VGA: everything is fine....
  24. GTA V, Witcher 3, now this....fuck the power bill! :lol:
