AMD just announced its tri-core Phenom X3s, a new CPU line targeted at those unable to afford quad-core processors… really.
Looking to satisfy the budget core junkie, AMD's new Phenom X3s seek to bring affordable but powerful computing to the average computer. "The value proposition is simple. Three cores versus two cores. You make the choice," said Pat Moorehead, VP of Advanced Marketing at AMD. This, of course, occurs right before Intel's developer's conference
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
AMD is behind in the CPU market. They may have something great up their sleaves but this isn't it. I build my own systems and the price of a Intel QuadCore is extremely affordable.
Trust me, go with intel on this.
My quadcore intel system rocks!
Addition: I think it is funny how AMD says, three cores VS two. Make up your own mind. haha That is funny. Namely because there are very few programs and games at the moment that even use two cores. You might as well spend an extra $50 bucks and get a quad!
That is like having a V5 in a truck. What the heck? Go with at least a V6!
of course it will depend on pricing and performence may be it can stand out against intel
