    What is your "coping" strategy for the time until you can get a latest-model Nvidia/AMD GPU?

    I've kind of accepted the fact that it's unlikely I'll be able to get a card at MSRP within this year. I'm looking to get the PS5, hopefully soon before someone figures out how to mine on these consoles :eek: I've always had a PS console to play the exclusives, and JRPGs. So I'll focus on those...

    So if ps3 store closes does patches go also?

    Well, its official now. At least we'll still be able to download our stuff after the store closure. For now anyway. https://www.techradar.com/news/sony-could-close-ps3-vita-and-psp-stores-in-july Wish I had collected more physical copies. Those things are going to increase in value now, lol.

    Nvidia's GeForce GPU shortage isn't improving anytime soon...or later.

    I guess one good thing about gaming console is that you do not need to compete against bitcoin miners I think even the scalper prices are quickly dropping, making it less desirable to them I don't see an end to GPU woes, between scalpers and bitcoin miners buying them up, hardly anything is...

    Sony removes Cyberpunk from the PS playstore

    While I agree that CPD needs to take responsibility for releasing the game in such a bad state on old consoles, I cannot agree with the media or content creators calling the entire game a failure, just because of how bad the game is on the PS4. If the game is working significantly better on the...

    PC Gamer - AMD RX 6800 XT runs at almost half the frame rate of Nvidia's RTX 3080 in Vulkan Ray Tracing tests

    It surprises me that some still think RT is an nVidia gimmick, when AMD and the new gen consoles have all hop on it. RT is one of the marketed selling points for the new gen consoles. Back when programmable shaders were introduced, we didn't immediately get full dynamic lighting and shadows...

    TMSC Is Reportedly Terminating Bulk Discounts and Increasing Prices

    I hope Intel can fix whatever issue they are facing with their fab and get back in the competition. This is bound to happen with the kind of market share TSMC have today.

    GPU sales rise across the board, from AMD and Intel to Nvidia

    I hope availability wont be as bad if/when RTX 3080 Ti comes out. Already got my Cyberpunk 2077 copy, but no GPU to play it at the moment. Not with all the raytracing goodness anyway:cry:

    How my current Gaming PC compares to 2020 Consoles

    My current PC is better on the CPU front (3950x, more cores and faster clock speed) But my GTX 1080 is certainly worse. This will be addressed once I get my hands on a RTX 3080 :)

    Potential RTX 3000 buyers...what monitors will you be driving?

    Currently a 1440p @165Hz g-sync monitor. Once I upgrade my GPU, next year's upgrade will be the monitor, which I'm aiming for 4k @ 144Hz I'm a little disappointed that the new GPU will not come with Display port 2.0 Though, there's no any upcoming monitor with DP2.0 either

    Would you choose a 12GB or a 24GB RTX 3090?

    With memory compression, I think its less straightforward to predict how much VRAM the new GPU will need. If it comes with a more efficient method, maybe it'll consume lesser VRAM compared to previous generations. I'll wait for the reviews to see if 24GB offers any advantage over 12GB when it...

    Microsoft interested in buying Warner Bros. games division

    I really dont want Microsoft turning all those franchises into Xbox exclusive. I'd rather have third party developers having those franchises and continue releasing them on multi platforms.

    PS5 - The Future of Gaming | The Power of V

    I wouldn't call it very futuristic, but I do like the PS5 design. I just hope the white parts won't turn yellow after several years. I keep all my consoles

    Linus from Linus Tech to Possibly Retire

    I was attracted to his channel when I watched the "whole room watercooling" project. It is these projects they do that I enjoy most about his channel, and it's also what sets them apart from other youtube channels on PC stuff. Their product reviews are fine, but nothing that makes them stand out...

    Ryzen 9 3900X vs. Ryzen 9 3950X vs. Core i9 9900KS In Nearly 150 Benchmarks

    I have been using Intel for all my past build for over 20 years, but this time around I went AMD, as Zen 2 is the only choice that excel in all important aspect of a CPU. I got the 3950X as I've always wanted to build myself a high end PC and 3950X is currently the best game in town for the...

    AMD Ryzen 4000 Rumored to Offer Around 17% Increased Performance

    Here I am still waiting for 3950x to be available where I live here. I admit I'll be disappointed if the 16cores Zen 3 comes out 6 months after I build my PC. If it comes out 12 months later, I'd consider that a normal progression
