Adobe Beginning To Roll Out Creative Cloud Overhaul To Users

After lingering in the rumor mill for some time, AMD has officially launched its Ryzen 9 3900 and Ryzen 5 3500X processors. But – there’s a catch. Both of these SKUs are targeted strictly at the OEM and system integrator market, so chances are good that you’ll never find either of these…..

Sony has announced that the next-gen PlayStation will be launching in time for Holiday 2020, and that it will officially be called PlayStation 5.

Sony Stops Being A Roadblock As PlayStation 4 Cross-play Exits Beta
The idea seems so simple: to let gamers play against (or with) each other regardless of the platform they’re on. Wide cross-play support has been a long time coming, but it really didn’t start to take off in a big way until a couple of years ago. In 2017, we wrote about…..

Valve Updates Steam Store Discovery Mechanics To Improve Relevancy

Maya 2017 Quadro RTX 4000 vs. Radeon Pro WX 7100: Testing AMD’s Claims
A couple of weeks ago, AMD posted Maya 2017 performance claims to its social media accounts, with us catching it on Twitter. Both AMD and NVIDIA regularly post similar things, but this one stuck out to us more than usual, because it didn’t actually make sense to us. Here’s the performance chart:…..
