Well...I'm in the market for a new phone since my Nexus 6P finally decided to have the 40% battery shutdown issue after hitting the 2 year mark.
 
If the price is reasonable, I may add this ASUS phone to my list for consideration.
The ROG and crap is overkill, true.
4000 mAh battery? Not bad, but curious to ee how the battery lasts with regular "non-gaming" phone usage.
It would be neat if you can connect an external display via the USB-C port, and attach a keyboard/mice to it...mobile workstation.
 
I was considering the OnePlus 6, but iffy about it -- security related.
See what the Pixel 3 has to offer...that is, if my Nexus 6P's battery can last that long...before it needs to be connected to a power source to even stay on for 5 minutes.... 
 
IMO $1200+ for a new phone is TOO DAMN HIGH 
 

Yup, but my concern was if it was actually a malware/virus/worm if it is nothing serious and a false positive then I really don't need to take follow up action and let the system be then.

This is very likely. Apple does the exact same thing in Final Cut Pro by utilizing Quicksync. Exports on the Macbook (non pro) are comparable or better than a Windows workstation with Premiere.
 
Considering its virtually a given for Apple SoCs to include HEVC encoding hardware, I would be surprised if the software didn't leverage it.
 
As Apple uses NVME and some extremely fast encryption/decryption hardware, they've had the edge for awhile in opening large apps and games.

I work at an ISP and someone from my sales (older) said why do people need more than 6mbps. I lost my shit, set their home connection from 60/10 to 6/1 and I got a phone call in an hour saying they cant take it and they dont do that much on it. Just to show them how dumb their statement was.
 
Minimum of 30/5 for everyone or get the fuck out. 

I want GP100 with HBM if they want my hard earn money. I will wait until than or if Vega is better I'll go to AMD for the first time. 

I believe Sony are taking steps in the right direction with this if it true. I would honestly just leave it at 1080p and just add other things since that more than enough resolution and will keep the fps up. If it upscale from 1080p to 4k then, I wouldn't have to much problem with it since it shouldn't give a huge impact on performance. 

Biggest thing for me is that the gauges are not right in front of the driver, (I kinda want to see what Audi has been doing for that XD). Everything else I'm fine, I wish the center console was a bit more elegantly implemented.

It a start at least, hopefully more patent trolls will be stop in the court system and Judges are becoming more smart about it.

Next thing you know, airplanes will have active drone tracking to shoot them down and the captain will have the last laugh.

This is neat, could be useful somehow to someone out there.

8k@60Hz is going to be amazing

you know what i want?
 
i want Sony/MS to sell a AIB with a proprietary "Playstation OS" on it. A BT module, and its own SATA connector to run up to a optical drive.
That way, i can just "boot into PS mode" or whatever and use my i7 and R9 295x2 to power PS games.
 
yeah.... i dont care what that would cost. Uncharted at PC visual fidelity + 60+ FPS... yes. Worth it

Welcome to America, Land of the Free, Home of the Brave, and the Greatest Nation in the History of the World, where the rest of the world powers ahead at the speed of light whilst the US tries to limit the access of its citizens to 21st-century infrastructure at every opportunity. Because 24mbps is all the freedom you could ever possibly need!

Fuck this country.

He can be funny and what not but at least stay way from genitalia jokes, it is a tournament. At least keep it semi professional, if he knew that  he was on thin ice, than it was probably no the best idea to make sex and porn jokes.

Not like I was going to buy games there to begin with

Now if only every other game supported DX12 with async 

It's going to flop unless they include the ethic code switch. That's by far the best thing in SAO.

I feel like the cpu's are playing "how low can you go" game.

Well, I would love to see some Polaris cards at GDC

I don't understand how they have the fastest in home wifi? It fiber connection, just hook that up to the modem and then to the router and I have gigabit wifi and wired. Even then it not like you are going to download things at those speeds unless you are transferring files between machines with raided ssd's. Sure they have 2gig fiber but that hell expensive compared to Google asking price. 

this is purely stupid, they just don't want to butt hurt the console people

The USA has fallen behind in a lot of things and it just sad

This keyboard looks great! and it includes a copy of "The Division". But it pretty expensive so it better be great, but you could take $60 off with the game coming with it.

THEY ARE NOT HOVERBOARDS GOOD THEY REALLY NEED SORTING OUT FOR PEOPLES SAFETY THEY ARE NOT HOVERBOARDS THEY ARE NOT HOVERBOARDS THEY ARE NOT HOVERBOARDS THEY ARE NOT HOVERBOARDS THEY ARE NOT HOVERBOARDS THEY ARE NOT HOVERBOARDS THEY ARE NOT HOVERBOARDS THEY ARE NOT HOVERBOARDS I LIKE TURTLES
