Yeah Google has every right to do this. Sucks for the small developers where that 30% can actually make a massive difference but thats just the cost of business.

No one knows until it comes out. These sort of questions shouldnt be asked cause its literally 100% guessing with 0 actual info available.

OMFG please no..... Not another Ring 0 anticheat.... Starforce was bad enough. Who know what this thing is actually going to do...

Frankly I'm more likely to want to pirate a game that has some sort of anti-cheat/antitamper software as in the vast vast majority of cases it will straight up run better and be more stable without it. 

Never mind that some times I want to cheat or mod a little in my single player games especially when they become really grindy ot i'm bored with it and want to switch it up

Or how about the when game is complete dogshit and a third party patch that would be blocked by the software improves the gameplay and performance a hell of a lot.

I have an old 2nd gen i5 workstation laptop and even if i were to upgrade it as far as it can go with the top end cpu of the era, max out the ram, and upgrade the gpu with a bios flashed complatible one it would still be incredibly bad compared to even a $400 Ryzen based one from today. Said upgrades btw would push the toral cost of the laptop well over $800 and its totally not worth it. Such a massive difference between hw now and then

Yep Thats Def an XJS. Somewhere early 1980 to mid 1985

So last week the F@H team did an AMA on Reddit in regards to everything that's going on with them as well as put out some Twitter posts with other information about what protein simulations actually are and I think it would be great for everyone to see this info.

Also congrats to F@H for reaching over an exaFlop of compute power!! Thats absolutely amazing to see and super awesome that so many are invested in helping!!

I've had drives that are well over 20 years old that functioned perfectly fine and most of the time were actually in better condition then a lot of the newer drives I have. Only reason I got rid of them is cause I managed to damage them by drop when taking apart the machines. I seem to kill way too much hardware that way.

Funny that you complain about other doing things like this Amazon yet when you do it theres nothing wrong,

Can you give us a few different Resolution options?

Ok so my sister has come to me looking for a laptop. New or used it doesnt really matter but her budget is $400 cad. I can probably get her to go a little higher but it's pretty stiff right now. I've been looking for a while and need suggestions. 

She mostly does youtube, and schoolwork on it but if it is capable of light gaming then thats a bonus. Doesnt matter what OS it is as I can change that myself.

Couple old computers, Gameboy colour with a few games, Gameboy Advance SP with Pokemon Sapphire, and an iMac G3

Hahahahaha!!!! Australia.... Considering some of the stuff they have been up to recently trying to get more access into personal data, this is hilarious. 

Oooh that actually sounds pretty awesome. I can see quite a few games that would look amazing with RTX properly implemented. If enough of ones that I want to play get done it may convince me to make Nvidia my next gpu choice.

Damn well finally!

At last count: 20 that work, and however many worth of parts I have currently.

Well that sucks... I'm in Canada and have 2 accounts that I remember... maybe 3?

Oooo Nice!! I've got an SL300 and its still a real nice old beast.

Ok. But how secure is it? These things are usually pretty damn easy to hijack if theyre not at least fully encrypted.

Alright so a few months ago I bought a Dell MD1200 off ebay. It's worked great until now but as things are changing and moving around I need a replacement for it as it is just far far too loud in its new location. I would prefer a DAS option to just straight up replace it as it's attached to my R710 and quite integrated into everything.

Any suggestions?

lol people talking about businesses replacing laptops every year or two. Most replace every 5+ years. A place i'm at now still has c2d laptops in service as standard.

AMD 6900 is a series of cards not a single card. If you can get the actual card name then that would help. 4890 was a beast of a card in it's day but now a days its pretty old and it really depends on how high end your 6000 series card is.

So someone *finally* bought my Inspiron Gaming (Tried to auction it twice, both times resulted in buyer not paying, the third place bidder of the second auction finally paid), so I'm debating on what I want to buy,  I'm basically looking at a choice between a GTX 1080 (or maybe a 1070Ti)/Vega 64 (or maybe Vega 56) as an eGPU or I could get a 980m MXM card to put inside the laptop, theoretically the 1080/Vega cards would give WAY better performance while docked and should even give better performance running on the internal display (assuming it scales similarly to my RX 480 @ ~50% of external displays).  Nvidia *says* the power draw of the 1080 is only 180W but I doubt that, I expect it to be more like 250W when even slightly overclocked, plus I would have to deal with driver mods (which I'm not apposed to) with the 1080 cards and possible the 980M as well. Does anyone know if nVidia Optimus works when there is only nVidia GPUs present (the laptop has only a K3000M NOT an iGPU)? and if internal display performance is different than AMD cards.  It depends on what GPU I can score a deal on and if I can confirm driver mods fix issues with error 43 on 1080s.

Optimus requires an Intel iGPU and an Nvidia dGPU, as it's an Nvidia product it doesn't work with AMD gpus. Unless AMD started using Nvidia gpus alongside their apu in laptops, I don't think Nvidia would ever make it available for them.

I've been in the market for a new monitor, and just happened to stumble across this beauty in my local charity shop! Who said polar bears were dead?!
