Based on what I've gathered the 6/8 core Broadwell generally do at least 4.2 and good samples top out at 4.4. 4.5+ generally takes excessive voltage and heat dump goes through the roof. Haven't had...

The difference in cpu limited circumstances is pretty damn impressive.

Makes the PS4/XB1 cpus seem much more capable. Seems so far brute forcing still nets solid results but that fact that they...

Gsync displays have an improved lightboost mode, Ultra Low Motion Blur, for use in 2D. Its an either or thing however, gsync or ULMB. You cant use both together. Basically if you can consistently...

I've enjoyed playing online so far save for the aforementioned netcode issues. Client side netcode is just... yea. More than not I'm killed moving into cover. Sniping I've also seen a fair share of...

Higher cost of living. Minimum wage in AUS is over double what it is in US/CAN for what that's worth.

I'm happy to see gpus bundled with decent games again for a change... Last bundled game I liked was YEARS ago when ATI had their HL2 / steam bundle. More than not included games have just no longer...

Ladies, any chance we can stow the bickering and personal attacks and behave like civil people?

No need to make all this stuff so personal. Unless you are a marketer or have huge stakes in a...

Most of the press review gpus primarily on Intel platforms... simple as that. AMD want their new product to appear in as positive light possible.

I'm finding all the hoopla coming out about...

At 1440p+, in any remotely demanding title, that is multi gpu territory.

AMD is just trying to show off 2160p to market their new card and BF4. I wouldn't read into it too much, it's just a PR...

Note this thread's timeline klepp ;)

What I'd expect to see, and being realistic about those expectations, are the 9950 beating / matching the 770 at $399 range and the 9970 in the 499-549 range and slightly behind the 780 (10% +/-)....

Setting your power profile to high performance disables core parking FYI.

I've been using 8 since launch along with start 8 and have been happy. I like a lot of the under the hood and windows ui...

I heard the bundle vouchers are nearing depletion. Hard to say if they'll do a new bundle in the coming months. Would be pretty sweet if they nabbed BF4 as that will be a game encouraging upgrades...

Shouldn't these be on a smaller node? We are creeping up on dual 8pin at 28nm and that's just no fun.

When XP launched the majority of cpus in the market didn't support 64bit instructions. Standard memory amounts were also a fraction of what they are today, ie 1GB was high end. Software devs didn't...

Have you tried tweaking the settings?

I've got it running nicely myself, the big thing is the render distance. It's just impossible to run the game well with high render distance. I'm running...

I've see various opinion's on the topic so far but many seem to suggest that the die's integrity shouldn't be the issue. It sounds plausible to me though. Would be nice if someone in the semi...

I've been having a Crysis marathon here and found something interesting stability wise. I've been at +125 offset since I've had these 780s and so far haven't' had any driver crashes or BSODs. I got...

This is good news.

Does anyone have any concrete reason why Intel skipped solder on Ivy and Haswell by the way? It can't possibly add that much cost and time to the process can it?

Please, please, please issue some free travel vouchers... some vacations seem to be required here :shakes: Honestly its getting old gentlemen, be the bigger man and bow out already or at least...

Sales have slumped all around simply due to tablets and smart phones. As long as ARM has their grip on things there, it will continue to do so. A tablet is plenty adequate for mainy users now so...

The game is very cpu limited so the platform upgrade alone will do a lot of good.


For 1080p or less a gtx 660 or hd 7870 should do the job. Basically unless you want to run anti aliasing, slow...

Defensive much?

Crossfire FCAT results = go home

Hes not hating, hes just not sugar coating the truth like AMDs marketing team does.

Some fact checking would do you some good sir.

Given you are looking at a full rebuild of a gaming system, with your budget I don't see any benefit of going AMD. If you wanted a low power system with strong integrated performance then obviously...

This is just a lazy way to showcase something with minimal effort. Many of the launch titles still need their share of optimizations and the results current dev kits can provide would likely have not...
