Your Computer Sucks, Get a New Graphics Card

Your PC? It sucks, it doesn't have enough cores. Sure, you could get a new multi-core processor like a Phenom or Core 2 Quad, adding like 2 or 3 cores to your rig. Or! You could get a new graphics card instead and get over one hundred extra cores. And more cores = more better, right?

Vista is good, but PC gaming is dead.

joydestroy6619d ago

more people in the world own a pc versus a console platform. for instance, my gf has a pc but not one console, not even a DS.

as long as that holds true, pc gaming will never be dead.

TheIneffableBob6619d ago

God damn, is trolling all you do with your life?

v1c1ous6619d ago

i bet she plays a mean minesweeper

Archaeox6619d ago

This is why computers fail. Hard.

Silvia0076619d ago

Damn, I must of been in some hibernated state and must have missed out on when computers kicked the bucket? Please elaborate.

Computers = Ferraris
Consoles = Yugos

I know which one I'd rather drive.

Marriot VP6619d ago

yes we all know everyone can afford a ferrari as opposed to a yugos

Edit: My comment was really just a counter to the spam post, so it didn't contribute.

Anyway, I think this is the beginning of the GPU vs CPU wars, with IBM and Intel fighting for graphics on the CPU.

TrevorPhillips6619d ago

how about we don't get a new graphic card and buy a console much better because aren't u guys sick of tired always getting a new graphic card all the time for new games why don't u just buy a console which already has a good graphic card that u don't have to trade all the time it can save u lots of money

evilbubble6619d ago

Something like CELL processor would be cool. It has the power of normal processor, 3D and etc. Want more power? Add another CELL. And so on.

"always getting a new graphic card all the time for new games"
You don't need to upgrade your computer every time a new game comes along. There's no one forcing you to play the game at the highest settings.

xplosneer6619d ago

No, not really. This 8800GT has been out for about 2 years and I don't see any time in the near future it needs to be replaced. It can run Crysis on high :P

kevin11226619d ago

the 8800gt came out last year, it hasnt been 2 years.

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.

Jingsing26d ago

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.

Tanktopmaster9226d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit26d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing26d ago

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.

Tanktopmaster9226d ago

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
