Thanks for the further explanation.
I left my pc idle for 5 minutes (as I usually have been doing lately for this testing) with just a program running that takes 18% of cpu load and when I came back it remained just like that, without the extra 30% that usually happen when there is no main...
Hi there,
I have win8.1 original version and I've had no performance problems whatsoever but anytime I leave my computer for longer than 5 minutes, my processor will jump from 0-2% that I get while browsing the webs, music, movie, etc up to 30% with 3.8Ghz OC .
As soon as I move the mouse or...
I'm glad we can all agree for once on a common thing:
Real Life is over rated.
Stay at home. Play your favorite videogames. Nothing beats it. Specially if you have the money to support such kind of life for pretty much... well... your entire life.
Great games? From the last decade on pc alone:
RTS/Turn Based = Any Total War
FPS = Bad Company 2
RPG = Planescape torment (1999 but , a year... come on)
MMORPG = Money wise WoW... fun wise... have yet to find one
I'm sure consoles have had great games, can't talk about them.
Make better games. That's the best plan to get more customers.
Boring repetitive videogames with no replay value are worth the same at 10, 40 or 60 bucks = A shit.
Only to North America? Even if I pay for customs and all that crap? I'm so sad now... I can't get such thing in my country. Why wasn't I born in America dear God, OH WHY!? TELL ME!!
Piracy killed PC gaming as we knew it (exclusive PC games instead of console ports), but not as the act itself of "stealing" but the impression it has given companies that develope crappy games. They think they're loosing sales which infact they weren't getting those sales in first place but...
PC gaming as we knew it IS DEAD
I bought a 800 bucks gaming rig back in February 2009 (Q9550,ddr2 gskill 4gb 4-4-4-12, 650w corsair, ati 4870 sapphire, Antec 900 Two) and I see myself playing all the games I was already playing on my Pentium 4. Replaying them. All the games I've tried in...
260 over 4870 any day of the week.
Way better game optimized drivers. CUDA and PhsyX support.
And I own myself a 4870, which it's amazing card but 260 is even better by small, but to have in account, margin.
Well... If you have the money for a gtx 295... Go for it, it's best GPU on market. For games. Not price wise but power cappable and no headaches with ATI's drivers or not optimized games for dual cards.
I mean if I had 1000 USD right now to (waste) buy myself any gift I would certainly go for...
If you can afford a 285 and you rolling on a 24" monitor, don't even think twice. Go for it. You will never regret it.
285 GTX way better than 4870x2 and 4850x2. Not because it's more power cappable but because it has way less driver issues and sadwich cards are not optimized for most games...
