BF4 beta (now full game but I only played beta), and i'm sure the full game it made a difference between 8 and 7. 7 had lot's of reports of stutter and bad performance. While 8/8.1 had no stuttering and no big dips. 30+ all the time (if you have the gpu because of dx11.2 vs 11) Plus 8.1 loads faster, and is just better. Linus and Logan (teksyndicate) are my 2 main channels for tech, but my god are they so against 8.1 isn't sad. They are stuck in the past. It is better in every way. 8.1 is the best OS out there.

Yes, but that's the thing, What game are they testing. That Tweet say's absolutely nothing at all. Some very very very generic information that means nothing

Makes me believe less and less at this API when they can't release early numbers. I'm sure they are going to compare 290x and Titan (because of the price) and say hey look it beats titan by this much, when the 780ti could beat it. I'm not a fan boy (kinda) but I hate that a company can not release numbers for a product that is out in a couple of weeks.

8.1 is already released. Beta testing was earlier this year.

I have 8.1, There is nothing to hate. You can not love the start menu that much. I never used it, no point. Hit the windows key, type something and the search menu pops up, and everything you want is there. Much faster.

Omg!!! things that don't matter at all, but I'm still saying things! Isn't mantle great. This non CPU bound game isn't using a lot of CPU power! who would have though! Isn't mantle great! I need actual benchmarks and numbers not somone on twitter saying things. Mantle at this time doesn't matter. There are no numbers or anything. Considering some games on a i5 2500k use about 50% so half the clock speed, it is still gpu bound. This means NOTHING!.

Like @EChondo said, just report, pointless post are against the CoC, I report every pointless post I see, and that is a lot. I hate a lot of the people have 1k+ posts but only post a meme, ^this, lol yea, or anything else like that. Makes me quite angry to see people with a lot of posts that don't actually ever say anything or the things that get's the most likes are the meme posts and nothing else. At least when I get 7+ likes on a post I am saying something and it makes sense, not a "it's happening" meme. God dam does that piss me off.

Leaked Walmart black Friday deals, 360 was 99$ and ps3 was $150. That will be the lowest they will be for the next year. ps3 *might* reach $99 (september/nov next year) but 360 will not be less than $99.

Does frostbite 3 not use more than 3 cores properly when they use DX11? That seems to be a limitation on the engine and not the API.

I like this since it encourages more developers to do this for PC games as well since it is going to be on every console available, I'd assume XB1 also. While most people are probably only using stereo audio from the TV, it should make a slight difference non the less. And for people that have a 5.1/7.1 Hometheatre this is just going to much it sound so much better than what was on previous consoles. At least from what we have been told from reviewers who were at the event.

I do actually, and it's called constructive criticism, I'm not coming out and yelling and swearing how they are messing up. I'm saying what I don't like and how they can improve.

Haven't heard anything about how long he is working, but it really isn't an excuse to mess things up. Things should be double checked before uploaded than. It's one of those small errors that makes you think, if this small thing is wrong what else is wrong in the videos.

Say I report you for saying hate speech and being a racist, Sony goes, well sorry we don't have any records of that so yea to bad sorry. They record as a way to back up reports not to keep on data centres and search through it and get information on you. Not even the NSA does that. They might have it but they only access it if they see a reason to.

Do they monitor? YES, They need to. If you report someone how can they enforce it if they don't have proof. PS3 and 360 did this. Do you own the game? No, Every single game now you buy a license to use it and play that game. Every PC game through steam does this also. They can cancel it or ban you at any time. Will they? Not unless you hack and cheat, and than I say great, I don't want those people playing that game anyways. So many things are being blown out of proportion just to get a headline, it's sad really.

Yea it's been in a lot of the past few benchmark videos, the wrong colour is a small thing. But the overlay right on top of his face so we can see the walls and his body are what really bugs me. I'd like either full screen of slick off to the right (stage left) and the video on the opposite side.

On the latest video of the R9 270, for the graphs that are showing the FPS in games, why are some Nvidia cards a red line and some AMD cards green? Am I missing something completely? Shouldn't the red and green line (than sometimes a separate colour for the one being presented) represent that companies colour to show you which brand is which. Also I still don't understand why the graphs take up 60% of the screen real estate but in the middle of the video, we can't see the face but we can see everything around it. Wouldn't it be better to offset the camera and have the graph stuck to the side so we can see his face while he is talking.

A $4-500 purchase that can play games for 8+ years, Dam your right that's an amazing deal. They are worth the money depending on what games you like.

Well there is the whole optimization thing. Games might not be at 1080p but over time they will look better and better. With launch titles, you have to remember that these games start development before the xbox and ps hardware has been decided. S you don't know much about the hardware, you just have a general idea. Games released 2 years from now will look substantially better. Plus who knows, they much clean the code up and optimize it after launch and raise the resolution up a little bit. I know that happened with 1 360 games near it's released.

No, not all games are at 1080p 60fps

Probably D2 and W3 have digital downloads once you enter the CD-Key. Hoping Warcraft 2 will be the same also, and I don't know if W1 had a cd-key.

Odin will unbrick your phone so there isn't any worry. I've bricked my so many times I've lost count. Can't help with the CM app though, haven't used it so not sure how it works.

Warcraft 3 works with Windows 8 no compatibility mode needed, and it supports widescreen resolutions now. Not sure on Warcraft 1 or 2, can't find my Warcraft 2 disc to test that out.

I don't think it's disrespectful, I think he just says the first thing that comes to his head and say's it, knows it's not funny and laughs like a laugh track to cue others to laugh even when it's not the least bit funny. Nothing in that video was funny. "Yes this bubble wrap is used to cool the tower." How the fuck was that funny. Make a joke and I will laugh say something that makes you proud of your ignorance and stupidity is not funny. His jokes make him look dumb trying to make himself look funny. Say something smart and make jokes along the way. Don't do stupid shit on purpose. He's pandering to the lowest common denominator. It's a horrible show and he should feel bad. But the dumbest people on youtube seem to have the highest subscriber rate. So it must work to make yourself into a dumbass who doesn't know anything and makes jokes to make yourself seem less intelligent.

What do I think?... That he is one of the most annoying person ever. There is funny and than saying things to try and be funny, he does the latter.

For me (680m = GTX670) the difference is less than 10% on the fps at high quality. Where you might want to stick worth fraps for now, is that you can not record a microphone. Only game sound. I assume Mic will come when they introduce twitch streaming. Local record over fraps, I doubt there is going to be a big difference. You will get smaller file size, but you still have to compress it to upload to youtube. But once Twitch streaming starts up, having that h.264 encoder on the gpu will help a lot, reduce cpu usage and provide a much better stream. Local = Shadowplay or Fraps Twitch = Shadowplay
