Big Cache!! Big Cache !! (Vanna White voice, clapping)
I think it was a good move to hold back a month , instead of quickly announcing or leaking as nVidia launched - another month to comb the drivers and optimize performance.
Navi was introduced at a good price point ..5600xt not so much &...
nVidia price feels like a Tesla 3 for $35k ...it dominates all news, sours the competition products & in the end so few are shipped at the 'claimed' price it should be a crime . The no inventory ampure release (just reviewers) through end of year feels like more of the same from nV . Where ever...
I think they will release the 4000s APU & not ship the true zen 3 desktops til next year . The XT refresh detail lends itself to that scenario too ..lets release 'new' cpus to test & talk about ..but literally the smallest increment in speed ..obviously they are saving the 4.0ghz base clock for...
like the $199 5500xt this isnt undercut nvidia but present an alternative at 1660 TI pricing - it is also halfway between $199 5500xt and $349 5700 pricing .
Of course there were some discounted 5700 being sold during the holidays close to $299 too . Heck there were Vegas out at just over $200...
I like both colors , usually I like LEDs but not a huge fan of RGB . So would do a Black case with RED LEDs or a Silver case with Blue LEDs ..think Corsair ML120s in every hole .
Any word when the ASUS Strix DTX board is shipping ?

I was excited by this with the CES coverage ..one of the techtubers was bashing the handle as 'flimsy' and kept pulling the handle out of the recess and then letting it drop back in to demonstrate - what a tard
What I like so far is that its made of aluminum , shipping in aluminum as well as...
Ahh , yes - the fan surprise ..they don't highlight that in the brochure.
The second surprise is that you can't buy the exact fan to match for a push pull - I think the Cooler Master Hyper 212 LED also is afflicted .
The third issue with RGB is the spigots ..lets say I add some rgb fans to...
$499 from Intel ? Hows about some Core i7 Extreme pricing at $999 or Skylake X (with all PCI-e lanes enabled) pricing .
Even if the pricing is reasonable will require a shiny new expensive mainboard , but in all fairness will cost less than a HEDT board ...probably
The only knock against AMD...
This is big , but suspect prices will raise within a year or two not unlike the cable cutter service.
I am looking forward to seeing the Wonderful World of Disney I watched as a kid again .. I will pay for this , but refuse to pay for CBS access ..
Kenny
To me this seems like collusion, not unlike we saw in the RAM market and traditionally in the Gas prices - no one 'lowers' prices to put pressure on the competitor .
Instead we get a leak of a possible rate hike to test waters, then one raises prices (you tube direct tv now hulu) then the...
Bahahaha ...youse soo funny !
This show broke the mold when it came on the scene - maybe not MCU but some crossover like Punisher, Electra and of course the Defenders . It was gritty, brutal and dark ,, very adult Hero .
It is sad that Netflix is doing a clean sweep of the Marvel items than...
I really like the focus 650W ..is a great smaller quieter power supply for a very reasonable price .
My suggestions would be to take the RAM to 16GB ..saw some on sale for $125 today at one of the stores and newer chipset board
Kenny
Feels like Skylake X .. lets price it way high and on the lower skus we will turn off something that is expected with the platform ..with skylake x it was the pci-x lanes that were abridged .
How did that work out Intel? Also it seemed like Intel spent more time in pricing tiers and skus ..than...
I thought the story was about 1st amendment right to speech , and freedom of the press ...which is freedom to publish .
We give up those rights and sign on to the whims of the corporate executives when you employ youtoob instaham ect for your sharing or ebay for your selling . My new favorite...
The GN basically highlighting that it ls poorly written and contradicts itself often in the attempt to make an argument .. I like the anology of being an early adopter is beneficial because the apple display cost $2k when released and the early adopters got to enjoy for years before the price...
I have a 1600x running at 3950 - its great , with my use am not missing extra cores .
Of course the bonus is I got to enjoy it for a year before intel released theirs , and mine was half their price and the board was $70 cheaper also .
AMD pricing is what is hurting Intel , not performance...
They should use it to flag out of state plates and mexican plates ..they are supposed to register after 20 days of residency. Military is exempted of course
Am tired of seeing every 3rd or 4th car with those plates and our fees keep going up and up .
Kenny
We are but mules to bring these govt agencies money . They will get more money from the new deal plus the bonus of having all libraries reset .
You don't need to be an inmate to get fleeced by govt for services rendered ..our city is the water provider so we have the highest water prices in the...
Paramount green lighted this project like 2 weeks before ST Beyond released. They announced this story line of George Kirk being alive and golly gee Jim is now older than him when he disappeared .
BEYOND had a buzz that was quickly squashed when the movie was released..fun like fast in furious...
The Seasonic Focus Plus series is ATX ..but about an inch shorter than traditional..
The 650W was just reviewed on the front page ..thats what I have in my Lian Li Q10WX
Dimensions are 5.9x 5.51 inch vs 5.9 x 7 inch most ATX...
Like the iPhone .. some engineer reminded them that they get no royalties or license fees for the generic port ...
What really sux is that like the Pixels you cant charge and listen without having BT ..and BT needs to be charged too .
Kenny
good idea , phone not designed to break ..like the S5 was . Problem is the new crap is selling or become 'the must have' because of a feature or ad campaign ..not because of any promise of longetivity .
Kenny
Auto application ?
I am sick of overpriced car infotainment with more drm and liability lock outs than functionality ... we only want ONE functionaility 'mirror phone '
Have seen the true android head units , but they are stuck on older os and the new phones have more ram / storage .. and...
There is Uber Eats where the driver grabs an order and brings it..Amazon should pursue that ..Uber drop offs
Fedex and UPS would never promise a unsustainable bid that loses money like USPS ..
Amazon is hoping for 3rd party to drive the rate cheaper like Cheesecake Factory in hiring 3rd...
My friend says Mark Hamill should be the voice of 'what is Star Wars' ..like a player becoming coach after being sidelined
I think it should go to Chris Hardwick , he knows how media works , he is loyal to the brand and if he knows alot of people and fans ..he would not be at a loss for content...
Lian Li A05N series case is small for a ATX case .. or if you can get a Micro ATX case there are some smaller cases there also .

Had something similiar back in the day ..I called it the Borg Cube as it was in a APEVIA X-QPACK . Very good experience for me using the BIOSTAR board for that .
I ran Win 7 on a Pentium-M which was based on PIII architecture , early Centrino .It just topped out with 1GB RAM which was not...
Yes we all want a new, killer CPU .. and if we got a few years outta the rig, may pony up for it .
Now you start pricing your board and find you need to buy different ram ..thats some real money .
After eating another $180 for RAM that you didn't intend too after deciding to upgrade ..wait...
Most schools pay sales taxes ..the only true exempt are Prime Contractors for the Federal Government .
CA has had this thing where they state a 6% blanket internet tax vs B&M .. so the retailer seems to be collecting as much as possible and keeping the difference ..which I think is baloney as...
Finally a MATX case to get excited about .. clean and function forward like the NCase but with some space for some options.
Ya think with the NCase success every mfg would have a case to compete ..but they keep churning out plastic & steel monoliths . . even Lian Li added some non-aluminium...
Yes this has been litigated for a while , but it sad to see Apple prevail as they used Sonys design .
Windows & Apple were inspired by Xerox (reverse engineering cough cough) and in my opinion Blackberry Apple HTC Samsung LG started with the functionality from Palm .
My first google maps went...
Very Nice Build ! I did a R1600X in a Lian Li Q10WX ..your tempered glass is much better .
I don't miss my monolith of V1200 but like the h200i because it doesn't force you into an SFX PS .
Kenny
I have two , one 07 with 215k and a plug in we bought used ..very solid .
So far we are happy, wife would like something with some curb appeal , but likes the mileage and hov stickers for the daily grind .
Kenny
This has just been released..still bigger than NCase but it hits all my marks (tower cooler, atx ps)
NZXT H200i comes in White , Black , Black/Red with new Tempered Glass

This is a good thread that brings up alot of information and highlights the lack of just smaller cases ..instead of cases for a small form factor motherboard .
We want NCase or almost NCase functionality and we get stuff like the Antec Cube or NZXT Manta ..Both are similiar in Size to a full...
