http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/01/adobe-flash-player-10-2-beta-arrives-expands-hardware-accelerat/ I like this "Stage Video API" As you know while many can use Ion setups to access Flash 1080P content. It still has to make some use of the CPU meaning the other elements of the page can cause...

http://www.engadget.com/2010/09/13/boxee-box-ditches-nvidias-tegra-2-for-intel-ce4100-pre-orders/ I have had enough of Atom's crap so I wont be purchasing the box anymore but I wanted to post it here to spit in the face of Nvidia who tried to pull a fast one on us all with an overwattage...

EDIT: Image changed to a link to image at http://www.chip-architect.com/news/ontario_vs_atom.jpg I saw that image posted by "Alatar" on the OCN forums. I don't post there so ill post that image from "Chip Architect" and the article...

This might be pushing it for this forum but this has just about as much to do about HTPC as it is about gaming. Ion 2 was supposed to be a superior low power graphics chip for use in systems that had no potential for a 3rd party Northbridge. I remember hearing about how it was supposed to be...

As I fully expected The APU systems requires and will get a new socket. http://www.fudzilla.com/processors/processors/desktop-llano-uses-socket-fm1 The reason is clear. AM3 does not have the pins needed to support a decent onboard graphics chip. But we do get the option of USB 3.0 so that...

I am surprised to find very little discussion about this upcoming core from AMD with Intel seemingly lowering expectations for the 2011 atom and 2010 atoms being lackluster for anything other than having lower wattage. Bobcat, however looks like its going to steal Atom's remaining thunder in...

Sorry to post an opinion thread rather than a news update. However, I just wanted to make a topic to discuss my views about the future of video cards. 40nm has been quite the number. Not as exciting as the transition to 65nm and the resulting battle between ATI 3x series and Nvidia 8 and 9...

I have to say.. I broke and bought MW2. I have to say I enjoyed the campaign but MP is going to define if the 60USD was worth it. However it got me thinking about their next project. The "Real" MW3 is years away at best and they will need something to do in the meantime. WW2 has been done to...

With supposedly 2010 being the big Nvidia Tegra ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nvidia_Tegra ) year. I wanted to get a little topic going about potential uses. Mainly in the HTPC area. Tegra is not x86 It is ARM which automatically rules out just about all existing HTPC software. And no...

I was browsing the blog sites when I came across this article http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/13/compaq-cq61-does-15-6-inch-screen-and-real-processor-for-399/ I have to admit I am quite interested in this system and if it runs cool enough it would make a very nice alternative to my power...

I saw this article posted in a topic at overclock.net source is http://techreport.com/discussions.x/17654 This is going to cost AMD dearly in sales in my opinion. This is not 2008 where Intel was just throwing 45nm left and right at expensive cores before AMD arrived with Phenom II at the end...

Oh ya this is what I am talking about! Netbooks that can stay on for atleast 10 hours. HDMI and able to decode HD Video. Looks like the first on the scene is the Mobinnova N910 http://geeksmack.net/hardware/645-nvidia-almost-ready-for-tegra-netbooks.html...

Ok obviously the 620 was rather silly unless you had the means and the will to unlock its L3. AMD finally admitted to using deneb cores initially http://www.fudzilla.com/content/view/15514/1/ which really did not help them in my view as it gave it poor performance for the power draw. On the...

Looks like we have an interesting new CPU incoming that could be quite nice for low heat and power HTPCs http://www.fudzilla.com/content/view/15198/1/ Obviously for any kind of gaming outside perhaps Half Life 1 this will be just about as useless as Ion so the question is. Will it be...
