    both Conexant and HP were notified and neither replied to the inquiry
    at this point no one seems to know or point out if this package is HP's own doing or is it Conexant's own release

    drok reacted to NumLock21 in Palit GTX1080Ti GameRock 4 Fans   
    Graphic card maker Palit, just recently introduced their GTX1080Ti. Part of their GameRock series, designed for enthusiast and gamers, there will be 2 models to choose from, GameRock Premium Edition and the standard GameRock edition. Both of them are factory overclocked above the Nvidia's GTX1080Ti reference. The Premium Edition has a base of 1594MHz and boost of 1708MHz, while the standard version comes in at 1518MHz for base clock and 1632MHz for boost clock. For comparison, the reference 1080Ti has a base of 1480Mhz and boost of 1582MHz. The cards like the rest of all the 1080Ti out there, comes with 11GB of GDDR5x, 3584 CUDA Cores, and Memory clocked in at 11GHz. One unique feature on the Palit GTX1080Ti is their

    INB4 a competitor comes up with a 10 fan design that takes up 5 slots or 10 fan at 36 inches in length, where you will literally have to dremel a hole in front of your case so the card can stick out and fit.

    drok reacted to Glenwing in Why Ryzen is faster than ANY single thread intel   
    The main point of this video is that low-resolution benchmarks to remove GPU bottlenecks don't work. Frankly I don't believe this, and I suspect that trying to compare benchmarks taken years apart is not a good way of doing things. These things should be tested back to back. No years worth of game software updates for multithreading, etc. to interfere with results.
     
    But I have an FX-8350 and an i5-2500K. I'll see if I can do some tests of my own to see how low-resolution benchmarks stack up with reality.

    drok reacted to LAwLz in Looks like the RX 480 keeps getting better and better   
    Do you really need to make multiple threads about how the 480 beats the 1060 in the same type of benchmarks (to be more precise, DX12 games)?
     
    Also, that title is really biased.
    The 1060 is getting 42FPS minimum, and 61 FPS average.
    The RX 480 is getting 35FPS minimum, and 65 FPS average.
    (1080p numbers)
     
    The 1440p results are more in favor of the RX480.
    The 1060 is getting 22FPS minimum, and 44 FPS average.
    The RX480 is getting 26FPS minimum, and 47FPS average.
     
     
    So at 1080p I'd say the 1060 wins. I would gladly trade 4 FPS (which are still above 60) for 7 extra minimum FPS.
    The RX480 clearly wins at 1440p.
     
    Both cards are unplayable at 4K so why even bother including that (that's by the way where the clickbate "16% faster" number comes from)?
    Woho! The AMD card runs the game at 26 FPS instead of 23! Suck on that Nvidia! Oh, your minimum frame rate is 20% higher at 1080p? Well that doesn't count!
    Something you also have to remember is that Nvidia cards sometimes performs worse in DX12 mode, so you need the DX11 numbers to get the whole picture.

    Why ?
    Titan has always been the cutting edge card for a nonsense price just to be the best card out there. Tech gets outdated yearly in most industries, do u feel sorry for people who buy iPhone every year or any other flagship android phone ? 
     
    1080ti wont outperform Titan, so i really dont see tge "sorry" part in this.

    I absolutely hate reading comments when people complain about the cost of an item.

    We get it, you're young and can't get your parents to buy it for you or you can't save money to afford something nice and then you come to online forums to bitch about the cost and how the people who work hard and buy nice things are stupid for spending the cash.
     
    If you spent the time you do bitching online and put that effort into some IRL shit, you might just be able to afford that $1600 6950x

    Putting PewDiePie in the headline is BS as he doesn't even do reviews or opinion pieces on games.
    In a review knowing about a sponsorship is important, but in a comedic gameplay it is pretty irrelevant.
    Not to mention that he actually did disclose it as he wrote in the video description that it was sponsored and he also says it in most of his videos.
    That's why I stopped reading the Verge, because of this kind of clickbate crap.

    It literally says in the video description:
    " This video was sponsored by Warner Brother "
