    AMD: Sea Islands R1100 (8*** series) Speculation/ Rumour Thread

    There is a couple of reasons why: 1) Household disposable income is very low in North America (there is alot of unemploment and uncertainity in the ecoonomy) 2)Windows 7 is still a great OS, for the average consumer there is no real reason to upgrade especially if your a gamer and your...

    AMD: Sea Islands R1100 (8*** series) Speculation/ Rumour Thread

    I agree, I work for a very large corporation but we do not let go of our elite people, the few that do decide to leave are replaced with young talent that is very good with fresh ideas. There has been a recession going on in North Amercia for seven years (maybe more), your comments about not...

    AMD: Sea Islands R1100 (8*** series) Speculation/ Rumour Thread

    Days are long gone when you walk out the door of a great job to another, no matter how good you are. For everyone that is considered elite there is two more waiting in line.

    AMD: Sea Islands R1100 (8*** series) Speculation/ Rumour Thread

    Not sure where their running too, the unemployment line ? None of the tech giants are doing well, even Intel is taking a pounding. Mobility tech is where it is at, and none of the desktop players are 'players'..

    AMD: Southern Islands (7*** series) Speculation/ Rumour Thread

    I am also in that 1%, and yes I have been on this forum since its inception and know very well what Beyond3D is about lol. All I am stating is hardware is way ahead of the games (has been since DX 8) being released and it is only going to get worse with next gen consoles get closer to being...

    AMD: Southern Islands (7*** series) Speculation/ Rumour Thread

    This is a subjective matter, but you do realize your gaming resolution and your in game settings require higher end products or crossfire setups, 99.5% of PC gamers would lower the resolution or details. High end video card sales make up a very small segment of overall sales. I still feel games...

    AMD: Southern Islands (7*** series) Speculation/ Rumour Thread

    There is no game on the market that could not run a 4870, and most Pc gamers are not running above 1680 x 1050, even Diablo 3 will run fine on a 4870. Why do people pour thousands into a video card when they don't need too, I have always said PC gaming is like buying a 1080P HD TV and using a...

    Battlefield 3 announced

    The squad interface is not good, forming and joining, tiny little letter at the bottom join etc ummm my eyes are not like they used to be. The Battle log interface has problem showing pings consistently, one of the most important aspect of FPS gaming. Game is good, needs some polishing.

    Battlefield 3 announced

    Awesome game, maps need some work 64 player conquest Subway is a spam fest, flash light is annoying, especially on a Sunny map like Caspian getting blinded by an enemies flashlight is not reality unless we have been able to generate more watts than the sun recently.

    AMD Bulldozer Core Patent Diagrams

    Never said that, just said laughing at a competitor trying to take on a giant when as consumers we NEED AMD is not the smartest move....wait for full benchmarks before snickering.

    AMD Bulldozer Core Patent Diagrams

    I would not snicker unless you want to pay a small mortgage to Intel without competition like back in the Pentium 60 days...but be my guest.

    AMD: R9xx Speculation

    Some are not individual titles, some are engine related like Epic and their bias towards one IHV and their Unreal Engine and AA, the hotfix was rolled into driver revision so improvements are across the board on titles that use that engine like Bioshock, Fallout 3 and Batman AA, I saw a huge...

    AMD: R9xx Speculation

    I agree, not sure what all the complaining is about....cards are fast, cards are reasonably priced, cards come with some great features like driving three monitors on a single card, new AA mode and are pretty well a wash in performance on most game titles (if you want to argue that 101 fps vs...

    GF100 evaluation thread

    Duping the consumer to sell a shitty product is 'not the way to do business', no different than the Toyota gas peddle sticking fiasco (they knew about the issue but chose not to tell the public). Nvidia is far more famous as the 'lets rip off the public with our superior marketing' than any...
