Core I7 Vs Ryzen 5 With Vega 64 Gtx 1080 Total War Warhammer Prey Power Consumption

Wrapping up the benchmarks we have Total War: Warhammer and these results are a bit all over the place – the elephant in the room being Vega’s weaker than expected 1% low results. Whereas the GTX 1080 never dipped below 89 fps when paired with the 7700K, Vega 64 dropped down to 70 fps and much the same was seen when using the R5 1600. The unexplainable 1440p numbers can again be seen, this time when testing with Prey....

Corsair Carbide Spec Alpha Atx Mid Tower Review Not As Edgy Inside

For example, there is the tool free drive cage that can accommodate three 3.5" drives and two 2.5" drives. Tool-less drive cages are nothing new, but we really like this design, as drives can be slotted in or out within seconds and there is no need to waste time pre-attaching custom rails to the drives, as they aren’t required. As you would expect from a Corsair case, there’s loads of room for excellent cable management, with plenty of cut-outs in the tray along with sufficient room behind for tucking away excess cabling- not something all mid-towers do well....

Corsair Vengeance C70 Military Green Vs Thermaltake Level 10 Gt Battle Edition Review Level 10 Gt Battle Internals

Getting inside the Level 10 GT Battle Edition is extremely easy as you simply need undo the “System Security Lock” then press in the button underneath the case and pull the door at the same time. Thermaltake has used its clever case door fan connector which allows the door to open with the fan connected. The opposite case door opens in a more traditional manner as it is secured using a pair of thumbscrews at the back of the case before you can slide it off....

Cpu Round Up Sub 100 Intel And Amd Processors Tested Intel Processors

This is a relatively new processor that saw the light on January of this year. Its cheaper and slower counterparts, the 2.93GHz Pentium E6500 and 2.80GHz Pentium E6300 were released last year in August and May, respectively. Essentially, these are not entirely new processors but rather 45nm versions of the original Core 2 Duo E6400 and E6300. Other than the design process and operating frequency they are identical. In fact, an even closer comparison would be with the “Wolfdale-3M” processors of the Core 2 Duo E7xxx series....

Cpu Round Up Sub 100 Intel And Amd Processors Tested Memory Bandwidth Performance

When testing with SiSoftware Sandra 2010 the LGA775 processors saw very limited bandwidths. The Pentium E6600, for example, reached just 5.45GB/s while the E5400 was even slower with a measured bandwidth of 4.60GB/s. The slowest AMD processor tested was the Sempron 140 with a bandwidth result of 7.23GB/s, but it was still considerably faster than any of the LGA775 processors from Intel. The Pentium G6950 which runs on the LGA1156 platform reached 9....

Crucial M4 Msata 256Gb Ssd Review Benchmarks Crystaldiskmark 3 0

The Crucial m4 has always performed well in CrystalDiskMark’s sequential read rest and the m4 mSATA 256GB is no different, delivering virtually the same performance as the full size m4 with a throughput of 528.6MB/s. The m4 mSATA’s sequential write performance is less impressive, but with a throughput of 278.2MB/s, it was still faster than the original m4. Both drives fell behind SandForce units such as the Intel SSD 520 Series as well as the OCZ Octane, Samsung 830 Series and the OCZ Vertex 4....

Dead Island 2 With Amazon Alexa Voice Support And Lords Of The Fallen Get Resurrected At Gamescom

Dead Island 2 has had quite a turbulent development. When it was first unveiled at Gamescom 2014, the Zombie-killing action RPG was the work of Spec Ops: The Line creator Yager. But “mutual differences” with publisher Deep Silver saw Dead Island 2 move to Sumo Digital in 2015. That relationship ended after four years when the game moved developer once again, this time to British company Dambuster Studios. You might remember that the first Dead Island was as famous for its incredible reverse-time trailer as the game itself....

Deadbolt Ransomware Attacks Qnap Nas Users Yet Again

QNAP says the latest attacks have hit devices running QTS firmware versions 4.3.6 and 4.4.1 – mostly TS-x51 and TS-x53 series models. The latest firmware versions are 4....

Diablo Iii Performance Test Graphics Cpu Final Thoughts

For whatever it’s worth, StarCraft II received an extreme graphics setting that improved shadow and lighting about seven months after its launch, so it’s possible that Diablo III might eventually receive similar treatment. For now, the gameplay graphics are about what you’d expect from a DirectX 9 title, and that’s reflected by the myriad of graphics cards we tested. Folks hoping to play Blizzard’s latest title at its highest settings will get by comfortably with the GeForce GTX 550 Ti ($120) or Radeon HD 6750 ($100) when running at 1680x1050....

Dutch Regulators Reject Apple S Proposed Policy Changes Allowing Off Platform Payments For Dating Apps

The Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM) in the Netherlands told Apple that its efforts to meet its March mandate to allow dating app developers to use external payment platforms weren’t good enough. It said that the company’s proposal was an “improvement” but was not sufficient to comply with European and Dutch regulations. “The Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM) has come to the conclusion that the changes that Apple on March 30 made to its conditions for dating apps in the Netherlands are insufficient,” said the ACM in a statement posted by a Dutch journalist....

Epic Games Will Pay 520 Million To Settle Ftc Complaints Regarding Fortnite

Epic will fork over $275 million for its COPPA violation, which the FTC said is the largest penalty ever obtained for violating one of its rules. A separate proposed order will see Epic pay an additional $245 million to refund customers for alleged “dark patterns” and billing practices, the largest refund amount ever in a gaming-related case. Dark patterns, also known as deceptive design patters, are intentional design elements used in apps, on websites and in games to get the end user to perform an unintended action such as signing up for a newsletter, clicking on something they did not mean to or even buying something....

From the red team, the HD 7790 was no good and nor was the RX 550, though you should be able to get playable performance out of the R7 260X. For a more optimal experience, the GTX 680, 770 or HD 7950 will be required. At the top of the graph and not that far behind the RX 570 we find the R9 290, 280X, HD 7970 as well as the GTX 780 Ti....

When adhering to Nvidia’s specifications, the GTX 760 still provided strong performance, beating the old GTX 660 Ti by an average of 11% in our frames per second testing, while also maintaining a 17% lead over the HD 7870 and 1% on the 7950. The average frame time numbers were quite similar, as the GTX 760 was 9% faster than the GTX 660 Ti, 11% faster than the HD 7870 and 1% slower than the 7950....

Mmm nope, not really. Here it’s exactly 30% faster than the 1080 Ti which is obviously a huge increase, but it’s not exactly aligned with the current 70% increase in price. Still if you want to play Warhammer II at 4K in all of it’s glory then there’s no better choice, personally I’d just lower the quality preset a notch and save myself enough money to take a short holiday....
