Poll: What is the most impressive piece of tech you've seen this year?

[VAkena]

As we're rounding out the year of '4K' or 2015 (take your pick), we've seen some impressive pieces of tech. The poll comprises of devices that have genuinely impressed the tech community, (no one outside the tech community really pays attention to these things).

 

The list I've made is completely subjective, but I think we can agree on most of them. If yours isn't on the list, leave a comment and tell us what it is. 

[PlayStation 2]

Why isn't the R9 Fury Nano on the list

[iHardware Shelden]

My GTX 260, thing blew me away for how old it is and still kicks some butt. All the new stuff like Skylake was a joke to be honest.

[iHardware Shelden]

Why isn't the R9 Fury Nano on the list

That is one I did like +1 for me.

[Virtual01]

Holy shit, was this really all we got this year?

[thekeemo]

None of the above?

[byalexandr]

For me it's the Fury X. What a card, especially with the newest drivers.

It's subjective, to me it didn't matter much..

[PlayStation 2]

It's subjective, to me it didn't matter much..

and the oneplus one 1-ups the fury nano... how?

[TechStyle]

Definitely the desktop class GPUs in laptops.

 

Looking forward to see greater efficiency gains where this becomes more common place. 

[Andrew Storlie]

I farted... better then the whole list

[_ASSASSIN_]

oneplus one was 2014 lol

[QueenDemetria]

I'm going to be straight up honest: I'm more interested in this wrench that I bought the other day than most of the tech released this year. Samsung pay was pretty cool I guess.

Consumer tech can't compete with research

[Guest HyppoCube]

All of the above are more or less expensive gadgets and i dont really take interest in them.
 

I think monitor tech could be on first place.

 

The most impressive are indeed scientific discoveries and tech discoveries.

 

Quick google makes your jaw drop

I just got one two days ago. It's a bit big, but I like it.

But I have to say, I loved the HTC Desire Z (last decet android smartphone with a keyboard) and typing on a physical keyboard feel better to me than on super hard groilla glas.

Although I have to admitt if you skipp the keyboard you can have the same performance for less money or more performance for the same price.

That holo lease thing at e3 with mine craft playing on the table

[The_Stig]

Wheres the R9 300 series?

[RollinLower]

i think the most impressive thing i've seen this year might be one of those tiny 8K screens they showed off. that definitely made me think, i remember being impresed with the color screen on a old Nokia phone. or maybe AMD's HBM on their Fury cards.

all in all it's a pretty exciting time for GPU's!

[Patrick3D]

The "most important" I think should go to Crimson, even though it's software. AMD/ATI was long overdue for an overhaul of their driver system.

[TetraSky]

The Microsoft's HoloLens. The rest isn't impressive to me. It's mostly "more of the same, just better".

[Coaxialgamer]

For me it's the Fury X. What a card, especially with the newest drivers.

Yeah, ita very impressive they could push gcn that much, it is after all older than kepler.

[Coaxialgamer]

What about 14nm chips?

Thays quite a feat to pull off.

[Atmos]

Literally none of those things spiked my interest.

Surprised you even put the macbook up there rofl, that thing was a colossal failure in the tech world

 

 

Anyway, the most impressive piece of tech I've taken notice to this year was the integrated water cooled cpu that Georgia Institute of Tech developed.
