  1. Overwatch, Blizzard's new team based shooter has officially gone into open beta for those that pre-purchased the game while everyone else will get a chance to play beginning May 5th. If you didn't pre-purchase it and don't have a key, ask a friend that may have purchased it early as Blizzard is giving out extra keys just for friends. Overwatch was created by a team at Blizzard that was supposed to make the successor to World of Warcraft but unfortunately (or fortunately for us Overwatch fans) failed and then redeemed themselves with this fantastic game. In style, the game is reminiscent of Valve's Team Fortress 2 with heroes forming different classes that each have a unique and often devastating ability. The pacing is fast and at least for the PC, when the graphics options are turned up all the way, the game is nothing short of gorgeous. The official release date for the game is May 24th 2016. Video of me and some teamethics.us guys trolling as Tracer in a match: We plan to do a full review of this game once it releases on May 24th but until then, feel free to join us on Tech|Inferno TeamSpeak. If you want to watch a live stream of the game, check out our twitch feed: https://www.twitch.tv/dirtyscrubz/ Post edit: 5/4/16 - will be adding highlights below from the beta View full article
  2. @Premahas contact with them so it would be best to PM him about it.
  3. While I picked I will be upgrading ASAP, the truth is I may hold off for the full die Pascal in 2017. My guess is the 1080 will initially be anywhere from 20-30% faster than the current 980 Ti and and the 1080 Ti will take it even further than that.
  4. NVIDIA's Pascal is on it's way and should be available sometime in June based on current leaks. One of the first GPUs may be a full GDDR5x GP104 based GeForce 1080 GPU and we will almost assuredly have mobile variants shortly thereafter. AMD hasn't given us nearly as much information on Polaris except their performance/watt demo a few months ago but we're fairly certain it is priming for release as well. With the new generation of GPUs quickly approaching, do you plan to upgrade to either of them upon release? Why or why not?
  5. For reference the updated rules: https://www.techinferno.com/index.php?/announcement/4-user-account-promotions-please-read/
  6. Looking forward to your final tweaks to get temps down.
  7. @Prema is the Clevo GPU expert so maybe he can assist. If it's an M17x bios issue, then maybe @Swick1981can take a look at it.
    Took the great work marco (svl7) did and updated it for legacy support with a lot of other extras. A great addition to Tech|Inferno's growing modding team.
  8. He will receive a notification and should see your thread. The viglink is automatically created and helps generate revenue to keep costs under control.
  9. It may be a case of nobody knowing enough about the dell and the riser card to be able to give you assistance, especially on a slim budget. Maybe @Dschijncan help?
  10. If you're looking to grab some new PC games, then check out Green Man Gaming as it has a 20% off voucher code this month that expires on April 15th. So if you've been itching to play the new Tomb Raider or Dark Souls III but didn't want to pay the full retail price, well now you don't have to. Just add it to your cart, go to checkout and punch in the code APR20 and you're all set! View full article
  11. Even when it was based on cc payments (3+ months ago) it went through PayPal via a secured connection and no cc data was kept on our server.
  12. We haven't heard any news but we're hoping he makes a recovery soon.
  13. Final warning to everyone that visits this thread: If you cannot access a file, THEN READ OUR RULES! Any additional posts asking why you can't access them or complaining will receive automatic infractions.
  14. From what I gather, all the other manufacturers need to do is get Intel certification for TB3 and it should work fine. AMD with xConnect support should make things a whole lot easier as well so they will have a leg up on NVIDIA for now. Maybe a Polaris + Razer Core + TB3 notebook combo would be ideal.
  15. Keep in mind WCCFTech is very anti-NVIDIA and they always tend to slant things as pro-AMD. Asynchronous compute is not a big deal and if the market leader (NVIDIA) is the weakest link, rest assured most devs won't make async heavy games that harm NVIDIA.
  16. Was about to suggest that but glad you figured it out on your own. You could always toss the Comcast one into dmz do you don't have to port forward twice every time.
  17. Platform update today. Please report any bugs. 

  18. In a sad day for the tech world, one of the pioneers of the PC industry and ex-CEO of Intel, Andy Grove, has passed away at the age of 79. As noted by the article on Intel's website, Andy Grove was Intel's first hire in 1979 as company President after Gordon Moore and Andrew Noyce founded the company and then later was CEO in 1987. His legacy includes shifting Intel's focus from memory chips to computer processors helping transition Intel from a company that made $1.9 billion in revenue to $26 billion. Grove played a critical role in the decision to move Intel’s focus from memory chips to microprocessors and led the firm’s transformation into a widely recognized consumer brand. Under his leadership, Intel produced the chips, including the 386 and Pentium, that helped usher in the PC era. The company also increased annual revenues from $1.9 billion to more than $26 billion. Grove was both an astute engineer and a careful student of business management. His books High Output Management (1983) and Only the Paranoid Survive (1999) remain some of the most highly regarded management books. Grove was also active in philanthropy and helped donate towards Parkinson's research as well as donating $26 million to the City College of New York which helped establish the Grove School of Engineering. He was married to his wife Eva for 58 years and is survived by 2 daughters and 8 grandchildren. View full article
