    Yes, I know. I was making a (badly phrased, it seems) comparison. :)

    Encouraging to hear. Makes me look forward even more to seeing it. You lucky bastard! :p Oh, and BS on SyFy not renewing, btw. They have a great thing, reviews from fans and press alike that I've seen pretty much unanimously praise the series, and then not renew? What the fugg. Such BS. Like...

    The Annual E3 Pre Hype, 2018 Edition

    Hm, I'm pretty convinced by now that GabeN will never allow another HL game to be released purely out of spite... HL "episodes" is the fuckup of all fuckups in the gaming industry.

    Exactly. Sharks who stop swimming drown.* Also, by waiting 'too long' with replacing pascal, or even hinting at a replacement, you might well end up with holdouts who were sitting on maxwell generation (or perhaps even prior) cards who originally wanted a bigger performance upgrade than pascal...

    Nvidia Pascal Announcement

    Maybe they're sitting on a whole bunch of GP104s that don't clock as high as the 1070. Or don't have as many shader units functioning. *shrug* Anyway, NV's product offerings is getting kind of crowded, if this is true.

    Finally

    Yay! *cheers* :D Best of luck, go break a leg! ...Errr... Well, you know what I mean!

    But how time your not yet released pascal successor with no firm launch date, with an even more future successor to pascal's successor? Especially if your pascal successor is already ready, done and finished. Release dates that are too fluid aren't good. Your R&D cycle gets all fucked up and you...

    "Throwhammer" exploit flips bits in RAM only using network packets

    Indirect attacks on computer systems are shaping up to be the headache of all times: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2018/05/attackers-trigger-rowhammer-bit-flips-by-sending-network-packets-over-a-lan/ 10gbit/s ethernet cards with a feature called RDMA (and rowhammer-sensitive...

    My thinking is that they've undoubtedly been busy designing something to replace pascal, and the longer they wait to release it, the older their tech gets. Also, by now they're already well underway designing a successor to the successor of pascal, and basing it on a design which has yet to see...

    MS Kinect Technology Legacy lives on ... Introducing Project Kinect for Azure

    Cloud-driven games was pie in the sky from day 1. Potentially way too much latency for anything approaching realtime graphics; if someone is on a cellular data connection they could have 500ms ping quite easily. I've had 1500ms at times when I've used my phone tethered. It could maybe work...

    Hardware.fr is closing

    I never adblock, ever. I've used an autoplay blocker addon for a couple years now maybe, because the scourge of autoplaying video just keeps getting worse, but that's it. Ad banners aren't so bothersome that I feel any need to block them, especially if I by doing so am financially hurting the...

    Hardware.fr is closing

    Ad-financed hardware websites is tough business these days it seems, at least for small(er relatively - not that french is particularly small objectively speaking) languages. There are two major swedish PC news and reviews sites, and they both have increasing amounts of hardware vendor sponsored...

    Well, we would need something to tide us over until NV's next announcement. Pascal is coming up on its two-year anniversary soon, so I feel like something has to happen within say, the next two months maybe? Either NV presenting new GPUs, or announcing that no presentation of new GPUs is in the...

    The Official, Long Awaited, TV Shows Thread

    Westworld S2:E3 continues at the same largely frantic pace headlong into thick mists of plot obscurity. It's starting to feel a little like Lost, as a thread has yet to crystalize. At this point in S1, we had one and characters had started pulling at it to reveal some hints of the Labyrinth, and...

    Nvidia Pulling the Plug on GPP

    Do we need your personal approval for posting now? That would be an unfortunate development for this board. No I don't; I'm neutral on the subject. I have no specific reason to believe Kyle's right, but then again from what I understand Pursch is a billion-dollar online retailer corp who in...
