Well there's good news if you're looking to buy a new AMD graphics card.
In preparation of their next generation GPU launch, AMD is slashing prices off their cards across the board all the way up from the HD 7990 down to the HD 7850.
First of all, the A10-6800K is rated over 700 GFlops.
Piledriver cores are faster than the Jaguar cores on both Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Its the GPU architecture which is weaker on Richland. The GPU is based off the northern islands series.
But do note, Next generation consoles won't be available until fall 2013. AMD around the same time launches their Kaveri APUs for desktop market.
Kaveri APUs come with the Steamroller core (Faster t...
Its the OEM's that are struggling, more and more consumers are aiming towards the DIY market due to which OEM PC makers aren't surviving since the just pump out expensive products with little to no gain over DIY builds.
A ROG TYYAN PC goes for $2000+, a similar DIY build would end up around $1100 - $1300. Who want's brand exclusivity when people can easily get more value with separately bought HW (Hardware)?
@Aqua 4K would become the norm sooner t...
AMD's Hawaii Launching in Hawaii, That's going to be an epic announcement!
Looking forward to see the VS Battle between GTX 780 (GK110) and Radeon HD 9970 (Hawaii).
Fallout series does "Post Apocalyptic" the best and at a massive scale.
Just downloaded the Witcher 2: EE again for this mod and i am loving it. The attacks are much more responsive and the enemies have become much more effective, they block and attack much more realistically this time. Great stuff!
Jaguar APUs for PS4 and Xbox One.
5 GHz FX CPUs for Desktop PCs.
God AMD's on a roll.
That's my next GPU!
The Jaguar architecture and Sea Islands HD 8000 is already out on PCs.

Do we even need to put Titan and 7990's to comparison?
The GeForce GTX 660 TI/ 670/ 680 and Radeon HD 7870 XT/ 7950/ 7970 GHz are far more better than PS4's HD 7950 equivalent and Xbox One's HD 7790 equivalent GPUs.
Its Jaguar core is lolsome when compared to actual CPU architecture's such as AMD's Piledriver and Intel's Haswell/Ivy Bridge.
8 GB GDDR5 ram? Yeah i know PS4 guys would bring that up but unfortunately its ...
Titan like performance for $350 less? Now that's what im talking about.
Plus that image is so cool, im using it as my new wallpaper!
:D
The performance of a GTX Titan for $599, too good but still expensive.
If NVIDIA wants to win to AMD then they would have to price this GPU at $499 but they won't due to cost of manufacturing the GK110 core.
But no matter what they price it, it'll still sell just like the Titan did which sold far too well compared to the GTX 690
Indeed, I can bet that the $399 would be the cost for the totally reference GTX 770 models while the one with GTX Titan cooler would be sold at $449.
EVGA, take my money!!!!!
Seriously, that's one sexy cooler. GTX 770 is a must buy for me.
Chances are that if NVIDIA forgot to unlock their 700 series cards then the GTX 670 could be unlocked into the GTX 760 Ti.
The 760 Ti has the same specs - 1344 Cores, 2 GB GDDR5 memory as the GTX 670. Only thing new would be the improved clock frequencies. So if a BIOS is available, then you'd be really lucky.
I bet alot of GTX 680's would sell now just because they can be upgraded to GTX 770 specs through three simple clicks.
Yup, definately a big update from that high-size PCB on the GTX 670 and that ugly cooler.
While the GTX 780 looks great (specification wise), the price is a bit high for me.
I will be leaning towards the GTX 770, it has performance better than the GTX 680 but at the price of a GTX 670 ($399), now that's epic!
Sims 4 is officially an offline experience. The online part only exists for sharing other than which it wont hurt the integral gameplay experience.
