    Xbox Game Pass for PC is available today

    Upgraded a few minutes ago, for $1. Live and gamepass were set to expire 7/7/19 and 8/20/19. After upgrade it expires on 3/3/20. Not bad. Now thinking about selling xbone if things like rdr2 and a few more make it onto gamepass.

    Xbox Game Pass is coming to PC, Microsoft also bringing 20+ of their first party titles to Steam

    Hell, forget a reinstall of windows, every major update I have had to re download/install FH4 Sot, GoW4 and Ark sooo many times. over 200Gb because they can't figure out how to properly junction files to a 2nd drive, hope using steam it will be easier, and hey possible modding too.

    Hardware USB hub power question...

    All pc usb hubs without their own power supply are 5V only(if it just has a usb plug that plugs into pc). If it has it's own power input/adapter, a barrel plug for example, it MAY? be 12V. Is there a label on the hub at all? if it has 2 usb plugs, one can be plugged into a cell phone charger...

    Gaming Games with really bad performance? (Overclock Research thread)

    2nd Ark. If it becomes any better with overclock I would buy a 2nd NX just to hack, since mines old but on 6.2FW and online.

    Hardware Minor Xbox One controller concerns

    Yep, that is normal. Just bought a replacement blue one a few days ago, and it creaks and pops like crazy. Pathetic really considering the price of these things, but what do we expect, everybody charges a massive premium for cheaper made crap. Unfortunately it will continue, but at least I don't...

    Alfonso Ribeiro is suing Epic Games for using his dance move in Fortnite

    But aside from the studio owning FP, what about the hired choreographer that probably taught him the move? And the Springsteen video? I could see it maybe having traction if Epic called it "The Carlton" but this... no, just no.

    Gaming [Help] I need to know the exact data size (game+update+DLC) of the following Switch games.

    Don't have several of those games, a few different, but just giving opinion. I have a 256Gb, and it is well over half full, Oddesy, LA Noir, BOTW, DOOM... I am looking at 400Gb cards now, because I know I will run out of room. Your totals are already over a 128 so yeah... 256 minimum, but it...

    This happened within the last few months. unfortunately their modems are outdated crap, and the ''supported" list is older, like 10y old stuff.

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the vram is one advantage when it comes to AI but ends up being slower even with that and really AI is the only use case that needs more than 12gb vram right now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Interesting lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think I watched a video where two games at 4K where eating just over 16GB of RAM and it's the one case where the 7900XT and XTX pulled ahead (minus RTX of course)
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
     +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
     +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
