    empyr3al got a reaction from mr moose in NVIDIA finally officially supports Adaptive Sync (with a small catch)   
    Good yes, perfect it's not.  I'll be swapping it for another unit (same S2716DG G-Sync) as it has 1 dead pixel (constantly white) about 2x2" from the bottom left and 1 stuck pixel though extremely difficult to spot other than when using a Dead Pixel Spotting website.  1440p really means they don't stick out that badly, I just want something perfect. Dell's policy is that its covered, so I'll roll the dice and hope I don't get another panel with a dead pixel.

    Forza Horizon 4 is also on PC, as is Gears of War and the Rest also seems to be on PC.
    And also the One S is rather crappy and doesn't do 1080p most of the times.
     
    So there is really no reason to stick to the XBox one S.
     
    Disclaimer, that's my Gaming Setup:

     
    And there is really not much positive to say about the XBox One.
    The 360 was nice, the One ähm, kinda pointless...
     
    PS: Forza Horizon is brutally optimized for the red team, look here:

    empyr3al reacted to AlTech in Nvidia & their AIBs are deceiving customers yet again with new GT 1030 variant   
    Uninformed consumers may accidentally purchase the GT 1030 DDR4 variant without realising what they wanted was the GT 1030 Standard version.
     
    Also, OEMs are not differentiating between the 2 well enough. It's just the model number which is different.
     
    If you picked up 2 boxes of GT 1030s you wouldn't be able to tell if one has DDR4 or if one has GDDR5 by looking at the box unless you looked specifically at the model number if the boxes showed different model numbers.

    empyr3al got a reaction from Taf the Ghost in VPN Chrome Extensions leaking DNS queries   
    This is a Prefect issue and not related to WebRTC leak.  Its can be turned off simply by disabling predictive url's in chrome by default.  The problem is that Chrome has this set by default and the majority of VPN extensions do not disable it.  If you use a VPN this defeats its purpose.  Chrome attempts to preload to accelerate the experience, thus leaking the link you hover over or what you type in the address bar.
     
    It seems there is more reason to not use Tunnelbear and use PIA.  PIA passes this test but Tunnelbear and a bunch of other VPN chrome extensions are leaking DNS queries via Prefetch.  Take a look.

    What JDE is trying to say is that you need a quote from the source (the link you posted) and your personal input on why this is important.
