Very cool! This will be very useful in developing multicore/distributed applications.

Now I can finally play minesweeper in 4K 240fps dual 3D monitors.

turgore3926d ago

you would still lose at it.

xtremexx3926d ago

lol, i dont even understand how to play it. when i was young i would just run it and test my luck.

@xtremexx

Each number represents a mine somewhere around that box. Either above, below, to the left or right, or diagonally. It doesn't start you with any boxes clicked so you need to click on them yourself. If you click on a box with 1 and it's a single box, you still have a good chance to lose. Once you click on a box that happens to be a larger square with a bunch of numbers, then it's easier to start off at that point and work your way out. Right clicking will set whether there's a mine or whether you don't know you'll come back later but there could be a mine.

Yea but I'm still kind of confused on why this is posted on N4G.

While you can technically game on it that is NOT what this card is for.

Smelly1sam3926d ago

It opens the way for cheaper tech to come out for games to be played on

MajorLazer3926d ago

Woah! That is.. powerful 0_o

FarCryLover1823926d ago

But the thing is....

will it run Crysis?

(BAD and TERRIBLE joke).

B1uBurneR3926d ago

Nvidia is hurt because they are not part of next -gen so they are on mission to make next-gen consoles look meaningless and weak before they even release. Lame move

cunnilumpkin3926d ago (Edited 3926d ago )

@b1uburner

NVidia was offered the ps4 first, they declined
Nvidia wanted no part of the garbage profits of making cheap toys and I applaud them for it

NVidia is worth more, makes better hardware and is far more respected by anyone who knows anything about tech

amd is second rate, cheap, unreliable trash
perfect for cheap ass $400 consoles

"next gen" consoles that won't even match a gaming laptop from 2 years ago let alone a dedicated desktop pc that will utterly destroy xbox1 and ps4

enjoy playing games with jaggies and sub-1080p resolutions all next gen too

Hay man, no need to go Rambo on us, we like what we like, as do you

If your talking about AMD for CPUs then your statement is pretty much correct. I mean they offer some pretty good deals that still are decent for gamers but their new $850 CPU performs less than a 4770k. So yea that's pretty much junk.

On the GPU side that statement is not at all true, at least the performance part. AMD is very much on the heels of Nvidia. A 7970 could easily smoke a 680 after the 12.11 cata drivers. The only reason AMD currently is behind is because of the 780 and that's simply because they haven't done a refresh like nvidia did.

And this is all coming from a guy that owns a intel i7 3930k and had a 680 but recently just upgraded to a 780...

I love intel and nvidia but you can't just smash AMD blindly because of it. Give them credit where credit is due. If Nvidia really had no competition they would have no reason to try and excel.

PeacePolice3926d ago

Actually Sony steeped out since Nvidia was offering a sub-par low end APU for an incredible amount of money.

AMD sucks? I own a GTX 7970 GHz edition and it wipes the floor with GTX 680's just for your information.

AMD also has better price to performance ratio, they release their high end cards at about 450-500$ while Nvidia introduced a 150$ price bump to their GTX 780 line making them 650$, they are only alienating PC users to upgrade.

“"Next gen" consoles that won't even match a gaming laptop from 2 years ago let alone a dedicated desktop pc that will utterly destroy xbox1 and ps4”

Gaming laptops from 2 years ago were equipped with Fermi (Nvidia) and Northern Island (AMD) architecture which are vastly inferior to the GraphicCoreNext2.0 (GCN2.0) architecture these Console APU’s are using.

PS4: 1840 GFLOPS + 7GB GDDR5 (RAM allocated for games)
Xbox One: 1230 GFLOPS + 5GB DDR3 (RAM allocated for games)

GTX 580m: 952 GFLOPS + 2GB GDDR5 (Laptop GPU from 2 ago)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...

HD 6990m: 1601 GFLOPS + 2GB GDDR5 (Laptop GPU from 2 ago)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...

AMD were known to have exaggerated theoretical GFLOP evaluations with their older hardware (The 1601 number may actually be less)

These laptop GPU’s have inferior GFLOP performance, RAM quantity and architectures

As a PC gamer myself, PC elitists shouldn’t bash consoles because of all the optimization and the on metal programming (No API) that will be done to improve the quality of the games for the upcoming years.

I saw your comment history and it also points that you are a hardcore PC elitist console basher.

"NVidia was offered the ps4 first, they declined"

Yeah they declined to make tens, if not hundreds, of millions of dollars

Cool story bro...

Its really weird when I see people saying there business isn't this or that...there BUSINESS is MAKING MONEY. They will do it in anyway they possibly can

AceBlazer133926d ago

Aside from the few good Indies,the endless f2p p2w,viruses way does pc have? Aside from the pretty graphics dat was the last great game played on pc? Not a good game a great game.u pc elitists best as hope developers keep on this graphics>story,innovation track other wise u would have nothing to brag about.

Clunkyd3926d ago

@Cunnilumpkin

All I read was bullshit from you.

Ragthorn3926d ago (Edited 3926d ago )

@cunnilumpkin
I know how you love PC as well as myself, but Nvidia doesn't make the best tech (though right now there GPUs are the best!), AMD makes real good GPUs such as the 7970Ghz Edition which is stronger than the GTX 680. I'm sorry but don't give the PC community a bad image, by berating other people for their choice in playing, in this case consoles.

Lisica3926d ago

It's all about the money, not about some fake respect, morality, or I don't know what.

And consoles are about games. Not computing power.

If console makers would pay for quality, Nvidia would be in the machines at the moment.
They were offered the job first, but were not willing to settle for the price that AMD apparently was.
Nvidia is doing just fine at the moment, actually.

Psychotica3926d ago

Yeah it has nothing to do with making money...

givemeshelter3926d ago (Edited 3926d ago )

@B1uBurneR

This GPU has NOTHING to do with gaming. It's a professional workstation GPU. If you actually knew ANYTHING about this you could have saved N4G.COM and its members your ill conceived rant displaying your lack of knowledge. You actually think this was made to show up the consoles and it's for gaming?
How sad you are...

Bonerboy3926d ago

I feel that you're hurt because you are buying one of said consoles.

JsonHenry3926d ago

This is a dev part. Not an end user part. It is used to MAKE the games/CGI. Not play it.

MuhammadJA3926d ago

Next gen consoles are already weaker than gaming PCs.

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues
