    Forza Apex 6

    Yeah, it was in the list of known issues for the beta.

    Unlocked Frame Rate and More Now Enabled for UWP

    Yes. I also like that in Forza i can instantly minimize the game or close it in the top left corner with zero delay or weird issues. It doesn't feel like the game is taking over my entire computer. I don't have to worry about every game responding differently. Once the small issues are ironed...

    Does the exynos S7 have a proper DAC?

    Techspot: Haswell-E vs Dual Xeon (SB-EP)

    can these CPUs run on standard X79 chipset mobos or do you need C6xx chipsets?

    Quantum Break: More like Quantum Broken.

    UWP will be great in time. Sure there some growing pains, but PC games need stricker control. I'm sick of games leaving their crap everywhere when I try to uninstall, the game needing admin rights which always makes me uneasy, not having universal control. They might have used it before it was...

    Samsung S7 rumors, speculation, and suggestions

    This probably has to do with the carrier bloat. http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s7_exynos_8890_vs_snapdragon_820_speed_test-news-17429.php

    Windows 10 Mobile Update To Finally Reach Older Lumia Phones

    The 1020 isn't getting it which sucks big time. I know it's 3yrs old, but they did say all phone with 1gb of ram would get it.

    Not that I am interested in the slightest (5S user), but will these come with NVMe storage like the 6S?

    Has anyone tested any UHS-II SD cards in the S7? I want to know ot will actually make a difference before I spend all that money.

    Samsung S7 rumors, speculation, and suggestions

    It's worth keeping in mind the S7 has a heatpipe, but I guess if Samsung equip their phones with Qualcomm silicon. You can be sure it will be decent. Only thing left now is power use.

    2016 GTI vs 2016 ST3

    So I decided to go with a DSG GTI, if I find I miss the manual, the resale value is such that I can sell the DSG and pickup a manual without adding anything on top. So the GTI here comes with continental A/S tyres. I wanted to swap them out for the Michelin PSS tyres. Our winters don't ever...

    2016 GTI vs 2016 ST3

    The WRX doesn't really have a dealer here, I would have to get one from South Africa, I don't really want to do that. The mini looks enticing, but I wanted something with a bit more space and 5 doors. I am leaning towards the GTI now, but I'm gonna test drive the Focus ST for a little longer...

    2016 GTI vs 2016 ST3

    The GTI is bar far the most popular hot hatch around here. I've only seen about 5 STs around here, but countless GTIs. I've only heard good things about the GTI. The GTI also makes more power. The GTI holds in value far far better here and will be easier to sell, but that is just for DSG...

    Wife wants new Android phone .... good camera wanted

    I would suggest the 5X, but it's camera performance is way too slow. I think that would be a bigger deal than a slightly worse Camera. I would say LG G4

    CF owners must be laughing. SLI isn't working. What the hell did that game ready driver do exactly? This keeps happening, Nvidia keep releasing game ready drivers that don't really do much tbh.

    Apple pulling 94% of profits while owning 14% of market.

    The Nand is the same. The controller is what gives the performance.

    AMD could be profitable in 2 years.

    They seem to have stronger more focused leadership in Lisa Sue and Raja Kaduri for RTC. We will see their changes reflect in 2016/2017.

    [PCPER] Testing GPU Power Draw at Increased Refresh Rates using the ASUS PG279Q

    But they haven't bothered fixing it until now. So there is some value to the article. I also didn't know about it. I know the cards drew much more power with multiple monitors, but it didn't know about 144hz 1440p

    AT's iPhone 6S review is up

    Samsung did that with the galaxy S6 active. I just wish they had gone somewhere down the middle with that design.

    DirectX11 vs DirectX12 Ashes of Singularity Benchmark (R9 280X)

    And steam shows windows 10 is already more used than 8.1 and about 10% behind windows 7. So a year from now windows could very likely be the majority. This of course only counts steam users.

    FuryX now = 980ti 1080p/1440p > 4k

    It isn't. More people play iRacing and Asseto Corsa is a better game.

    Jim Keller joins Samsung

    A substantial amount I would imagine if you have the talent, fabs and money. You could beat anyone. Especially the way Intel is sandbagging in mobile.

    The final nail in the coffin for HTC. HTC One A9.

    Wow, this phone only has design going for it, and even that has some issues. LG G4 is pretty damn close in price, the Moto X is too, and a Galaxy S6 is the same price on contract and $100 more retail and the design is just as good, but specs wise is far superior. And then of course the Nexus...

    (guru3d) Want new drivers? Must use Geforce Experience to get them

    Wow, this sucks. So if a new game comes out I need to get GFE then register, just so I can get a new driver with an SLI profile? This is such a dumb move. I don't get why they won't be on the website anymore. That's the puzzling thing. AMD let you update through CCC, Steam or Raptr and still...

    guru3dStar Wars: Battlefront Beta VGA graphics performance benchmarks

    It really isn't anything like BF4. The gunplay is very different. I think it looks "cleaner" than BF4 or BF:H

    Smartphone GPUs to match the "classic" AMD/NV/Intel GPUs?

    Tegra X1 will probably have the fastest mobile GPU around.

    Surface Pro 4 and Surface Book

    I can imagine you would hit the TDP limit when gaming as it's stressing both the CPU and GPU and they have a shared TDP. When it's purely a CPU load it should stay maxed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DyUitTVWlw

    Surface Pro 4 and Surface Book

    The Core M3 might actually be pretty fast. It's actually cooled so it should stay at 2.2Ghz most of the time if not all.

    iPhone 6S' performance is monstrous

    The die size must be large compared to the one other 14nm SOC.

    How many ACEs does Maxwell 2 have?

    So Gears of War is going to use Async Compute. Not sure to what extant though, but since it's a game coming from Xbox One it might not be that much. So that makes all the currently announced DX12 titles.
