Nice, but my GTX 970 should be enough until the Pascal cards in 16 nm arrive.

Yep, the 980Ti is blazingly fast, almost as fast as the TitanX.

But in most of them you'll read

"So why not dust off our highest-of-the-high Editor’s Choice award? Call it the Fiji factor. AMD’s HBM-equipped answer to GM200, or at least what we’re expecting to contend with Nvidia’s flagship GPU, is purportedly imminent. Without knowing how it’ll affect the enthusiast graphics space, we’re reluctant to declare a victor, as much as like the GeForce GTX 980 Ti. Though that might sound unfair to the star of today’s show, rest assured, a winner will be declared soon."

or

"That said however, today’s launch is just the first part of a larger battle between NVIDIA and AMD. With AMD scheduled to launch their next-generation high-end card in June, the launch of the GTX 980 Ti is in many ways NVIDIA striking first and striking hard. By pushing GTX Titan X-like performance down to $650, NVIDIA has set the bar for AMD: AMD needs to either beat GTX 980 Ti/Titan X if they want to take back the performance crown, or they need to deliver their card for less than $650. It goes without saying that NVIDIA has given AMD a very high bar to beat, but AMD has proven to be quite resourceful in the past, so it shall be interesting to see just what AMD’s response is to the GTX 980 Ti."

or

"Then again, prospective buyers may want to wait a few weeks, because AMD is preparing its own next-gen GPU, code-named Fiji, to do battle with the GM200. We already know Fiji will feature an innovative memory type, known as HBM, that promises quite a bit more throughput than any of Nvidia's current products. That advantage could make Fiji rather formidable when all is said and done. At the very least, things are about to get interesting. Nvidia has played a strong hand, and now it's up to AMD to counter."

Dunno if anyone wants to make a thread but a friend of mine was going to link me this info from MSI's site but MSI took it down not too long ago and it looks like mention of Final Fantasy Type-0 on PC: http://imgur.com/dotbrV4

Steam has updated its Refunds Policy.

We can return any game if the request is made within 14 days of its purchase, as long as we haven't played more than 2 hours with it.

Check it lo learn more about the policy regarding DLCs, in-game purchases and other stuff.

Apparently MS is going to apear at the PC show during E3, sounds like they are really wanting to take back some PC ground, hopefully they'll deliver this time than show up to make some promises they might not keep like they usually do.

Meh, it will be about Win10 and how gamers "need" to jump to it to get DX12.

Which is why I'm currently like this at the PR talk in both articles:

It's going to be PR fluff anyway from what I'm seeing, a few hand me downs and Windows 10 talk with some slight DX12 vids and talk of merging Xbox with PC as a brand which will become GFWL 2.0 and we all know how GFWL turned out.

True. The only way their presence at the PC event would interest me is if they port their X1 games to PC, thanks to DX12 of course.

But that's not going to happen.


Anyway, for those that can't wait, today have started the Summer Sales at GOG! http://www.gog.com/

The Bard's Tale 4 looks nice:

I hope there will be a character import for savegames of The Bard's Tale 3 or Dragon Wars. ;)
