It has been a while since we got faster CPUs and the software side has also catched up to the multi threaded nature of current CPUs. Now that things are quite settled down with some of the programs are being accelerated by the GPU as well, which kind of CPU advancement would you consider to...

We have the X3 CPUs with one disabled core which can be unlocked. Do you think that we will have X5 CPUs that can be unlocked too? Wishful thinking I guess. :p

The current GTX 480 has some of its shaders disabled, I wonder whether we will see the full version of Fermi or not.

Since most of the dies will end up as the GTX 470, is there anyone here plans to buy the GTX 470?

This is an old video and maybe you have seen this before, this is just a proof of concept but the image really pops out of the screen without any fancy monitor or glasses. I wonder why 3D is not done this way: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jd3-eiid-Uw

I'm looking for a video camera that can do HD recording and I wanted to buy the Canon HG21 but looking at the uploaded videos on youtube, I'm not impressed with the video quality especially when compared to the Rebel T1i. I don't know whether I should go with the HG21 or Rebel T1i. HG21 has...

http://www.reuters.com/article/marketsNews/idCNN1519858320091015?rpc=44 I hope that they will be profitable soon. The CPU sales will have a hard time again Intel and their new release but GPU sales should be competitive I think.

AMD already has their latest flagship card (HD5800) out but what suprises me most is how fast they will be coming out with their mainstream parts as well, the HD 5700 series. The rumoured spec of the HD5770 is quite similiar to the HD4890 and if it has anywhere near the performance of the HD...

You could do it on Windows 7, but not anymore since the release of 186 graphics drivers. Saw this on another thread but I think that this deserves its own thread: http://www.ngohq.com/graphic-cards/16223-nvidia-disables-physx-when-ati-card-is-present.html I hope that this won't create...

Never saw this one before, looks like a sleek front end :cool:: http://blogs.amd.com/home/2009/04/08/amd-fusion-media-explorer/

I'm building a list of games that will benefit from a dedicated GPU as a PhysX processor. I'll start with what I remember that are worth playing: Released: Cryostasis Mirror's Edge Unreal Tournament 3 (modpack) GRAW 2 Crazy Machines 2+ Sacred 2 Warmonger Batman Arkham Asylum...

I found this, could be useful to some people. It is still BETA though: http://forums.amd.com/amdlive/messageview.cfm?catid=366&threadid=114667&enterthread=y

Anyone know what would be the next big PhysX game in the making? nVidia signed PhysX deals with some companies a few months back so I guess that we can expect some good PhysX games soon right?

AMD market share increase by 2.3% according to iSuppli: http://www.isuppli.com/NewsDetail.aspx?ID=20317

I'm wondering how much are you willing to pay to have the Project Natal device in your living room. This is just for add-on device only, not including the console, however you could say that you are willing to pay $xxx.xx for the device with a game bundle. Edit: Keep in mind that with the...

Sorry for the most noob question on [H] but I still don't understand why you need to boot a computer. Why can't it be just like any other things in this world, just turn on the switch and it is ready to go. Just imagine if you want to drive your car, you can't drive it right away after...

First of all, let me give some background. Before this I was using Vista and Win XP on two different harddrives. Instead of using the boot manager, I installed the OSes independently on each drive. That means, if I want to boot into XP or Vista, I just need to choose the correct drive as the...

Anyone has this board? It looks like a nice board and the guys at Xtremesystems seem to like this board too. Can you still use CnQ with multiplier OCing on this board?

I want my PII case sticker, there is no sticker inside the box!!! :p I'll post some pictures later. Edit: The box: The CPU: CnQ enabled: AoD screen: AoD diagram, you can read almost everything here: AoD overclocking: AoD stability test:

I've just installed it, it seems to be much stable than the older versions and more features are available now. It provides information just like CPU-Z and it can also be used to tweak the settings. Benchmarks and stability tests are also there. http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_overdrive.aspx

If this is true, it might be too late already since new architecture will come out later in the year. http://brightsideofnews.com/news/2009/4/8/ati-partners-can-and-will-make-a-radeon-hd4890-x2.aspx Thanks to RussianHAXOR for the link

Is there any date on this?

The NDA will end tomorrow but I found this at FUD: http://www.gamestar.de/hardware/tests/grafikkarten/pcie/1955014/test_radeon_hd_4890.html I will update this thread with more reviews tomorrow. New review: http://enthusiast.hardocp.com/article.html?art=MTYzNiwxLCxoZW50aHVzaWFzdA==

Which of these cards will work with each other in SLI?

Looks like we are back to 02-06-2009, hopefully the problem will be solved soon. Edit: I hope that my posting won't create an alternate universe ;)

I'm wondering, if you lower all the graphic settings in Crysis, how high can your fps reach. I know that this would be a meaningless benchmark but for me it is much cooler to say "I got 200 fps in Crysis" than saying "I got 15k score in 3DMark". :p
