A true piece of art. Can't be much better.

Soon we are in Christmas time 2024. Some will never be forgotten.

Here we go. Old is Gold @ryan @Mr. Fox @electrosoft @Talon +++ A whopping 37% of Steam users' playtime in 2024 was spent on titles released eight or more years ago When it comes to our cumulative gaming habits, it's clear that the old reliables reign supreme....

Linux need better gaming support. That would help people/gamers to migrate over from Windows to Linux. Core Ultra 9 285K is faster in Linux than in Windows

Now we live in modern times. You'll need the latest and greatest for your gaming experience. Yup, spyware as an helper for performance uplift. Fantastic idea. Clever done. And Intel want that you go with the new and shiny OS from Redmond to get most out of your 200 series processors. Sure. Here's more from the modern tech world. 5090 - 5090Ti - 5090 Super and finally 5090Ti Super. What to get?🥴 Yup, not all will be released but what a sick sick tech world. May we also see an 5000 series RTX Titan on top? In short... Now you need to disable/enable ME to get the best performance to play games. Isn't that nice? Maybe a toggle switch in the OS to stop the need for going into bios or reboot every time you start a game would be smart. And for the records... Some code in the ME firmware will still run even if you disable it. Without some needed code you can't boot from what I know.. Aka Intel governments vs gamers consumers = 1-0 Many ways to make modern worse than it has to be. But the tech trend continue. I'm quite fed up of modern ways to make thing more complicated to get what you paid for.

Thanks 🙂 Not much flesh on the bone here. And aren't mc 0x114 already out in beta with not much gain? How will this give performance parity with older 14th gen chips in games? We'll see when the reviewers and gamers test with all so called performance improvement patches. As Intel mentioned in the cheat sheet... Minimum 6% performance gain... This should be enough to beat previous gen Intel chips. Is Santa Claus real? Intel vs Intel: Core Ultra 9 285K vs Core i9 14900K So, there you have it – confirmation of what we discovered when first testing the Core Ultra 285K. It's around 5% slower than the 14900K for gaming, but at times, it can be much slower than that. In terms of overall gaming performance, the 285K sits between the 12900K and 14900K, which is a decent result given how little power it uses in comparison. Intel announces Arrow Lake performance fix is now available — another update coming next month And Intel ME (Intel's spyware) + Microsoft's latest and greatest is more important than ever... Oh My gosh. Regarding Intel's spyware "ME". Now "needed - must have" with new and modern Intel processors to function properly (see above)🤢 Why flashing newer bios with baked in ME only for testing "if better" can be an bad idea. You're stuck with the new while you want the old bios version back. Never be an guinea pig. Be sure you can get some gains (do your due dilligence) before trying new bios versions with the hope for "New has to be better". Implement ME in bios package is an bad idea. Very bad

Madness

Mozilla Seemingly Prepares For Google Anti-Trust Lawsuit Fallout With New Search Partner Today, 00:30 Mozilla and Firefox have undergone a slew of changes of late, with the non-profit laying off its entire advocacy team and subsequently working with a famous design house on a branding overhaul. At the same time, Google is facing a monumental US antitrust lawsuit that could see the search giant prohibited from paying to be the default search engine on a variety of platforms. Speculation until now has predicted that if Google loses the antitrust case, it would deprive Mozilla and Firefox of a massive revenue stream, effectively ending the Firefox browser as we know it.

Nvidia Control panel (cpanel) as standalone. Portable version. Click and run. No need for the new, fancy and modern. The forum is slow to respond today. Also the same yesterday but worse @Reciever AVX512 throttling, clock stretching or something completely different?! – 9800X3D with up to 35% less performance at the same clock speed | Investigativ Please always make sure that you don't set a static core voltage (Vcore) above 1.3 V! Otherwise, your sensitive 9800X3D CPU, of which there are already far too few examples, could potentially die.

New is always better.... Also Intel's brand new app for their GPU's have exactly same problems. We tested the Nvidia App performance problems — games can run up to 15 percent slower with the app Yup, what is wrong with Nvidia? Is xx60 cards the new xx50 now ? 8 GB vram. Yet again. Of course, none know it for sure before the release.... But everyone should know how Nvidia run their business. NVIDIA RTX 5060 Series Ti Gets 16 GB VRAM, RTX 5060 GPU 8 GB GDDR7
