Qualcomm & HTC Announce VIVE Standalone VR Headset For China
Standalone VR platforms are beginning to crop up, providing a VR experience without the need for a smartphone or desktop computer.

AMD’s Crimson ReLive Edition 17.7.2 Driver Adds Slew of Enhancements & New Features
If it’s not enough that AMD has an RX Vega and Ryzen Threadripper launch mere days away, the company has decided to preface that excitement with a major upgrade to its Radeon software. The latest, Crimson ReLive 17.7.2, packs in an awful lot of enhancements, and to be clear, those enhancements are…..
NVIDIA’s GeForce 384.94 Game Ready Driver Complements First ShadowPlay Highlights Title: Lawbreakers
As someone who loves to record video of their gameplay to share with other people, and not to mention for nostalgia’s sake in the future, I’ve become a big fan of NVIDIA’s ShadowPlay feature in its GeForce Experience app. As long as it’s running in the background, you’ll never have to worry…..
NVIDIA Surprises 15 Research Institutions With A Free Tesla V100 Data Center Compute Card In Honolulu
NVIDIA’s Tesla V100 is an absolute powerhouse of a GPU, made most useful when used for deep learning and artificial intelligence. In case it somehow isn’t obvious by now, AI and deep learning are areas NVIDIA has put a ton of focus on in recent years (the company even held a deep…..
Bungie Reveals Destiny 2 Beta Is Based On Months Old Build
Bungie released what it calls a “beta” for Destiny 2 to some incredible fanfare earlier this week, and being a huge fan of the series, I wasted no time jumping in. As much as I would have loved to have been wowed, I wasn’t. I seemed to be in the minority with…..
Intel Releases Its First Movidius Deep Learning USB Stick, Prices It At $79
Last April, we wrote about Movidius, and its “deep learning accelerator” housed inside of a USB stick. We were intrigued by the company’s offering, but months later, we found that Intel was even more so, as it acquired the company for an undisclosed sum. Now, the first fruits of the acquisition have…..
First Thoughts Of Destiny 2 Based On The PlayStation 4 Beta

AMD Drops Hint That Top RX Vega Will Perform Similarly To GTX 1080
AMD’s next-gen Radeon GPUs, called RX Vega, are set to launch at the end of the month in Los Angeles, right before the premier graphics conference SIGGRAPH kicks-off. While we’ve been hearing about Vega straight from AMD’s mouth for quite some time, the closer we get to the launch, the more we…..
AMD’s Air Cooled Radeon Vega Frontier Edition GPU Runs Better When Undervolted
For a bunch of reasons, AMD’s Radeon Vega Frontier Edition workstation GPU is an interesting beast. For starters, it’s the first GPU AMD’s released that bundles its Vega architecture, which in itself is interesting for a number of reasons. But also interesting is the fact that there’s an air and liquid-cooled version…..
As The UK Plans To Require Credit Card Verification For Porn Sites, Torrent Site Owners Grin From Ear To Ear
The threat of requiring legitimate age-verification for porn sites has been looming for ages, and the UK looks to become one of the spearheads in cementing it into law. In the not-so-distant future, porn-seekers in the UK will need to haul out a credit card to verify their age, even if they’re…..
Viking Technology Announces Seriously Beefy 50TB UHC-Silo Enterprise SSD
Being a PC gamer can be tough, sometimes. We’d love to store our 50TB worth of games on a single drive, but alas, no such solution exists. Well, it hasn’t existed until now, that is.

AMD Reveals Threadripper Pricing, Upcoming Ryzen 3 Models
In advance of its launch next month, AMD has finally coughed up some pricing information for its hugely anticipated Ryzen Threadripper series – or, what I like to call “Ryzen on Steroids” (I don’t think AMD is going to adopt that one, though.) While rumors have shown full Threadripper lineups, the launch…..
Please Purchase An Appropriate Free Speech Add-on To Access This Post
If you’re tired of hearing about net neutrality, then try to envision a future where it doesn’t exist. That’s when you’re really going to feel the pain; when the internet you once knew as open is no longer. When ISPs will gain the right to charge you for access to your internet…..
A Look At The Best Tech Deals From Amazon’s 2017 Prime Day Sale
As has become tradition, Amazon has just kicked off a massive summer sale it likes to call “Prime Day” – one that happens to be aptly named as an Amazon Prime subscription is required to take advantage. If you don’t have Prime, and don’t necessarily want it, you could sign up for…..

Didn’t we see Oculus drop the price of its Rift back in March to just shy of $600? Well, Oculus has done another price drop to an even more palatable price of $399, which includes the touch controllers. This is nearly half the launch price of the same package since December. This…..
NVIDIA Adds Support For Netflix 4K In Just Released GeForce 384.76 Driver
Netflix fans who watch the service on their PCs have the right to be annoyed if 4K resolution is their target. Up until recently, the only way to watch 4K content on Netflix was to use a mobile or “smart TV” device that supports it. Even though the PC is as flexible…..
Do Extra Monitors Affect Gaming FPS On A Single Monitor? One redditor Finds Out
Can having extra monitors set up affect gaming performance on just one of them? That’s the question of the day, and one answered by redditor birthday_account. It’s not hard to assume why gaming performance may be affected, because after all, the graphics card needs to deliver pixels (even static ones) to those…..
Baidu, NVIDIA Announce Partnership To Power The Future Of AI In The Home, Cars & Cloud
Baidu isn’t too well-known on this side of the world, and being a Chinese search engine at its core, that’s not much of a surprise. However, much like how Google has worked on or created some impressive technologies, Baidu has done the same, but being a Chinese company, most of us in…..
Anxious For 10Gbps Ethernet? ASUS Now Offers A $99 Single Port Adapter
Considering the fact that we’ve had solid-state drives for years that have been able to peak at about 500MB/s, it’s been downright appalling to me that 10Gbps Ethernet isn’t more popular in the home (or anything better than 1Gbps, for that matter). Our storage caught up, but our networking hasn’t. Of course,…..
Qualcomm Demonstrates Under-display Finger Print Reader At MWC Shanghai
At the ongoing Mobile World Congress in Shanghai, Qualcomm is showing off one of its latest wares: under-display finger print readers. A current smartphone trend has seen vendors focus a lot on edge-to-edge screens, which has relegated the finger print reader to the back of the device. Personally, I don’t like this…..

Qualcomm Bolsters Its VR HMD Accelerator Program With New ‘Critical’ Components
Earlier this month, I had the opportunity to meet with Qualcomm’s Hugo Swart in Taipei, and it didn’t take long before I could see that he is a man that’s truly passionate about the future of VR, as well as AR. At that time, he spoke about XR (eXtended reality) – a…..

Hot on the heels of launching its hugely anticipated EPYC server processor lineup, AMD has now officially launched its first Vega-based graphics card, called Radeon Vega Frontier Edition.
