They're gonna call X370 on high motherboard.



Around the Network

February seems like a long time.

The chip name is not that surprising once you think about it. The other two AM4 chips previosuly revealed were the A320 (low end) and B350 (mainstream), so naming "370" the high end one falls more or less in line with the other two.

And the X code was already mentioned by AMD:

See the Small Form Factor part? The chipset could be an X, B or A three hundred series. Now we know that X is for the high end class.



Please excuse my bad English.

Currently gaming on a PC with an i5-4670k@stock (for now), 16Gb RAM 1600 MHz and a GTX 1070

I was unaware about the situation with Zarx. He passed away?

Since he hasn't posted anything, hasn't touched any game on Steam and even his twitter account hasn't had any activity in almost two years, that's what most of us believe, saddly.

TERRARIA UPDATE 1.3.3 ADDS FEARSOME SANDSTORMS
http://www.pcgamer.com/terraria-update-adds-fearsome-sandstorms/
It is simply unthinkable for work to finish on a survival game, even well after it's officially 'done', so here's a big new update for 2D building/survival/RPG Terraria. The 1.3.3 patch adds sandstorms to the game, a weather event that will occasionally rock the desert biome with new enemies, loot, tunes, and oh yeah loads of swirling sand.

The news, part two:

 

INTO THE BLACK IS A VR SURVIVAL GAME WITH ECHOES OF FIREWATCH
http://www.pcgamer.com/into-the-black-is-a-vr-survival-game-with-echoes-of-firewatch/
Into the Black is a VR game being developed by the UK's National Film and Television School that sets players off as a spirit guide sent to help a red fox and a grizzly bear escape the wildfires of Yellowstone National Park. It will be narrated by actor Nigel Barber, whose film credits include Spectre and Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation, and will debut in a demo that will be be playable at the EGX 2016 show, which runs from September 22-26 in Birmingham, England.

 

CLUSTERTRUCK, THE GAME ABOUT SURFING THE TOPS OF POORLY-DRIVEN SEMIS, IS OUT THIS MONTH
http://www.pcgamer.com/clustertruck-the-game-about-surfing-the-tops-of-poorly-driven-semis-is-out-this-month/
Our January summary of Clustertruck really nails it down: “An absurd action game in which you have to get from point A to point B by riding the tops of a long convoy of trucks whose drivers, from what I can tell, have never driven a truck.” At the time, it was expected to be ready for release in April, which did not work out. But today publisher TinyBuild announced that it will be out, for sure, on September 27.

 

BURN ALIEN TRASH IN DIARIES OF A SPACEPORT JANITOR, OUT NEXT WEEK
http://www.pcgamer.com/burn-alien-trash-in-diaries-of-a-spaceport-janitor-out-next-week/
Chunky pixels, a Morte-style floating skull companion, and a vibrant, alien 3D world—these are just some of the reasons I'm looking forward to Sundae Month's Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor, which is out next week. It's an "anti-adventure game about picking up trash in an alien bazaar".

 

STARBOUND UPDATE ADDS FISHING, NOVAKID VILLAGES
http://www.pcgamer.com/starbound-update-adds-fishing-novakid-villages/
Thou shalt have a fishy, on a little dishy, thou shalt have a fishy when you load up Starbound and play around with its new fishing system, which has just been added in a patch. Update 1.1, as the name suggests, is the first content update since the sandbox-crafting-space-etc-thingy released a couple of months ago, and if you're wondering what PC Gamer's Chris Livingston thought of it at the time, then wow, that's a pretty specific wondering, but he reviewed it and liked it all the same.

 

BASE-BUILDING SPACE STRATEGY RPG HALCYON 6 LEAVES EARLY ACCESS
http://www.pcgamer.com/base-building-space-strategy-rpg-halcyon-6-leaves-early-access/
Halcyon 6: Starbase Commander is, and I quote, a "retro space strategy RPG with base building, deep tactical combat, crew management and emergent storytelling". It doesn't look particularly retro to me, but developer Massive Damage cites classic oldies including Master of Orion, Star Control, X-COM (note the hyphen!) and Civilization as inspirations, while doffing its corked developer hat to modern space roguelike FTL.

 

RUST'S XP SYSTEM ISN'T WORKING VERY WELL, WILL LIKELY BE REMOVED
http://www.pcgamer.com/rusts-xp-system-isnt-working-very-well-will-likely-be-removed/
As far as Early Access survival games go, Rust is among the most loved. Although Garry Newman isn't currently working on the project, Facepunch continues to chip away at it under the supervision of lead developer Maurino Berry. One of Berry's recent additions was XP, which introduced a little bit of structure (ie, the permanent short term goal of grinding). Although the system was welcomed pre-launch, it appears to be conflicting with the studio's – and the fanbase's – longterm vision for the game.

 

THE DIVISION'S PUBLIC TEST SERVER DELAYED
http://www.pcgamer.com/the-divisions-public-test-server-delayed/
A couple of weeks back, Ubisoft announced it was “thrilled to confirm” plans to open a Public Test Server (PTS) for the PC version of The Division. As Andy reported, “the near future” was when the publisher planned to roll out the server—a date which was later confirmed to be Thursday, September 15—however it seems this will now be further away that first thought.

http://www.pcgamer.com/hearthstones-welcome-bundle-offers-ten-classic-packs-and-a-legendary-for-a-fiver/
Love Hearthstone but your lack of Grommash Hellscream is holding you back from jamming Dragon Warrior on ladder? Blizzard may have the answer in the form of a new Hearthstone “Welcome Bundle” that comprises ten Classic Hearthstone packs, and one random class Legendary card from the Classic set, for just $5. It's aimed primarily at new players looking for a boost, but it's sweet deal for veterans who want to bulk up their collection, too.

MAJOR RAINBOW SIX SIEGE UPDATE ADDS NEW ITEMS AND TWEAKS THREE OPERATORS
http://www.pcgamer.com/major-rainbow-six-siege-update-adds-new-items-and-tweaks-three-operators/
Following the release of Operation Skull Rain last month, which introduced a new map and two new operators, Rainbow Six Siege is getting a substantial mid-season update this week. While the addition of two new gadgets and attachments are welcome, it's the tweaks to three existing operators that constitute the biggest shake-up to the game.

 

STEAM'S REVIEW SYSTEM IS CHANGING TO COMBAT ABUSE
http://www.pcgamer.com/steams-review-system-is-changing-to-combat-abuse/
Valve has issued sweeping changes to the way Steam tracks user reviews, with the addition of new filters and – most notably – the removal of reviews based on products acquired through Steam product keys. The reason for the latter is because the company is trying to eradicate reviews that have been incentivised – or outright paid for – by developers.

 

SHOVEL KNIGHT'S SPECTER KNIGHT CAMPAIGN OUT SPRING 2017
http://www.pcgamer.com/shovel-knights-specter-knight-campaign-out-spring-2017/
Shovel Knight might be finished, but it's not finished finished, on account of the extra campaigns promised in Yacht Club's Kickstarter. We've already contracted Plague Knight, and we're still waiting to pick up the cloak and scythe of Specter Knight, and put on the shiny gold armour of King Knight too. As with Plague of Shadows, the two upcoming story campaigns will be entirely free for owners of the game, and now we finally know when one of them is going to release.

MINECRAFT: STORY MODE EPISODE 8 OUT NOW
http://www.pcgamer.com/minecraft-story-mode-episode-8-out-now/
Minecraft: Story Mode Episode 8 arrives today, bearing the appropriate (?) subtitle 'A Journey's End?' You'll have to play it to figure out whether that question mark should be there or not, but Mojang describe this as the "epic conclusion" and "very final" episode of the three-part DLC series, so I presume it wraps a few things up.

The lawsuit was filed in the US, and the agreement only covers that lawsuit.

And Nvidia will try to keep it that way.
