[Hardware Unboxed] Is the GTX 970 still worth it for modern games?

The memory partitions with the fast 3.5GB and slow .5GB (also don't forget the fact that it cant write to both partitions at the same time as far as I remember) means that. it will indeed do worse than cards with full 4GB memory. And for the fury the super fast memory somewhat helps with the...

[TH] 1050Ti passive cooling mod

Lately The major noise hazard in my PC are 2 HDD's, and not the fans which I've set to run at lowest speed, or off with a custom bios on my G1 970.

NVIDIA Quadro P6000 Review - Faster Than Titan X (3840 CUDA Cores)

First of all, no idea what you just said. But there's a reason for IT departments, the average "joe" designer/artist will not just go on newegg select "price low to high" and buy what he thinks is right, when a consumer doesn't know what he needs, he asks for a product according to his needs...

NVIDIA Quadro P6000 Review - Faster Than Titan X (3840 CUDA Cores)

It's like comparing the RX480 and a Pascal TXP, pointless, cards that target different performance and price brackets. AMD's top pro gpu currently selling excluding the Fire pro is the WX7100, a card based on a $199 GPU with 8GB of GDDR5, the same as on the consumer 480. On the other hand...

HDR support, displays and video cards, oh my.

Most cases with this kind of generic displays, not all of specs are really true, also, displays should indicate on screen when they enter HDR mode.

GTX 1080 vs Quadro M4000 for FP32/64 CUDA work

If you want REAL FP64 Performance, If I'm not mistaken, your ONLY option is the SUPER EXPENSIVE GP100 based Pascal Tesla, the GP102/104 Tesla's and the GP104 Quadro's won't do, the chip is designed to deliver 1/32 Perfrormance in FP64 mode, so your only option for that aspect exept selling your...

What resolution do you game at?

F 1080p, 16:10 Master race ! Personally I love my 1920X1200 U2415.. I guess upgrade path is 34" ultrawide, when the prices will be acceptable (under 400$)..

Nintendo Switch is powered by NVIDIA

It May help when the console at home, being able to play games with "better hardware" behind it. and in some sick way to stream pc games, (grid or local). I am sure that a console that can run Nintendo games AND PC games without actually releasing nintendo games on PC. is what nintendo...

Nvidia Maxwell-based 900 series cards now going into legacy support

The 980 pulls ahead vs the 970 @DX12 because its a stronger card with more hardware to utilize, dx12 is a more parallel API, so having more cores help spreading the load. nothing to do with nvidia's optimization, they optimized the cards to be as fast as possible, be sure that they didn't...

Nvidia Maxwell-based 900 series cards now going into legacy support

TBH, Showing "RX 480" in the TITLE of this specific slide, where the WHOLE specific page was talking about cut Polaris 10 RX470, and pointing to a little "2" there without presetting immediately the actual note text is IMO a direct attempt to deceive without actually doing anything wrong, sure...

Nvidia Maxwell-based 900 series cards now going into legacy support

AMD Pulling the "Good for customers, open source stuff is amazing, we don't lie redacted" doesn't mean they don't do anything wrong. they are in a very bad place brand-marketing wise, so yes, they are more "careful" but be sure, that't because right now they had no choice. Nvidia and Intel to...

And Bulldozer performance, fury X overclocking. RX480 "efficiency over 9000X". Most companies suffer the false statements regarding products.

What if the Nvidia deal has something to do with the "GRID" style streaming.. something to think about.
