    I can't believe the bench is with DX11.
    I would like to see DX12 benches as well though.
    I'm gonna enjoy showing my flatmate just how much better it looks on my 285 then his Xbone

    Well this was hardly surprising news.
    I can't help but wonder though, the engine is the same (upgraded) as the one Skyrim uses... the CK is the same as the one for Skyrim...
     
    *fingers crossed*
     
    I can dream right?
     
     
     
     
    I hope that's what they are working on right now, as porting is supposedly sooo easy...
    All I want is Linux support.

    Looks like AMD are sending out the review samples of their new Fiji based card out into the wild.
    PCWorld got their hands on a sample and did a size comparison.
     
    Boy the nano is small.
    Also here is how the R9 nano was born

    induction is just a changing magnetic field (oscilating even). its not dangerous to humans. Wifi/BT/4G signals though. thats the danger (still not really the radiation is like 1/2 a banana per day or something like that)

    Just about everything mentioned to be removed is irrelevant to me. Never used any of those thing.
     
    Wanna bet the automatic update thing is the first to cause massive outrage?
    I hate it when windows starts 1gb updates while I'm trying to do something else bandwidth heavy and then there's those pesky "you need to reboot" pop-ups when I really REALLY REALLY don't need that. "trying to watch a movie are we? well wanna schedule a reboot?" NO I f****n' don't!
    Here's hopping the reboot isn't started automatically without user consent as well.
