It's been a while. What did I miss? Anyway, a guy came up to me this morning and asked whether to choose the RX 460 or the GTX 950 for gaming? I told him to choose the 460 but I don't know whether it's true or not so here are my doubts: 1. Can the RX 460 really outperform the 950? If yes, how many percent? 2. Can an OCed 950 match the 460 in terms of performance? 3. Has anyone tried to put the 950 in SLI?

Hey guys (Another one? I'll have to rethink my intro) So lately I tried to overclock my 1070 FTW card from its stock base clock of 1607MHz up to 2000MHz. At first, it went smoothly. But when I try to push it to 2100MHz, things started to get pretty dang hectic. When I try to launch FireStrike, the screen went black and after 2 minutes, as I was going to shut the PC down and pull the card out, it came back on and poof, the computer doesn't recognize the card's driver anymore. I then turned the card back down to 1900MHz, things started to get back to normal Anyone experienced this? If yes, should I put a waterblock on it or send it back to EVGA?

I just boot up my old man's Powerbook G4. I've just came up with the idea to go BootCamp-ing and install Windows XP on it in order to enjoy retro games like Pinball. But I'm not sure if the specs meets the reqiurements or not? Here are the specs CPU: 1.5GHz PowerPC G4 RAM: 1GB DDR1 Hard Drive: 80GB

Yeah, me too. I mean our cards are beasts and should be able to run that maxed out no problem. I think that Ubisoft hasn't learn any lesson since the first Watch Dogs. The recommended specs is ludicrously high and even if we met those requirements, we still can't run it smoothly. I would rather played No Man's Sky or Dishonored 2 than this

Have any of you guys got tho play Watch Dogs 2 on PC? My cousin and I received a code after buying the 1070 FTW from EVGA. We have done some research before and find out that our game can run in Ultra Setting at 1080p with the FPS around 60-70. But when we tested the game, the FPS was just around 30 for Pete's sake. Has anyone experience this? Specs of the rig: CPU: i7-6700K @ 4.4GHz 16GB of DDR4 RAM @3000 MHz EVGA GTX 1070 FTW (not overclocked because of the whole MOSFET exploding thingy)
