PCFormat Forum Archive

Android can do more things and the hardware is superior to that of Apple's but I'd take an ipad and iphone over any android device. At the end of the day whenever your doing some of the more technical stuff you are going to use your laptop or pc. Ipad interface is easy to use and fluid, and at the e...

I believe Ubuntu and XUbuntu (mobile one?) is version 12.xx or something.

Then will SteamOs also be classified as one or is that too specific?

Wrong. Telkom charges for a 4mb/10mb the same (apparently) and my exchange doesn't do 10mb yet. Already phoned them to downgrade me but the "person" on the other side said no price diff in that.

I could downgrade my ISP though.

That 3rd option should be hard formatted from the face of the earth. I haven't tread those unholy grounds for ages and while I no longer play World of Warcraft my eternal hatred for facebook burns with a matching blue flame. Should probably say, the forum originally gathered people of the same inter...

Some of those covers didn't match the hardware or software talked about. It's not about the size of the silicon, it's how you use it.

Or where you use it?

Think I just stale mated that argument.

I have a 10mb account, on a 4mb line u wot m8 Good question. I had the reverse some time back, which has the benefit of a 1024kbps upload speed, but this way round doesn't make a whole lot of sense. It's not that hard to explain. My telkom billed account is 4-10mb (scaly :P ), my isp is 10mb uncapp...

Well I found my answer. I'm not the only one with internet issues for my area.

I'm having trouble with my connection since last week thursday after 8pm. I have a 10mb account, on a 4mb line, and my download speed has dropped to 0.5mb/50Kbs (512k speeds) but my upload is still 50Kbs. I've tried the following: Axxess reports a dip in uncapped accounts so I assume that was the pr...

Didn't realize the game was this old. Atleast the early access. People can get bored before the game is released, imagine you go to a cinema and complain about a movie before you got to watch it. Insane.

Cover for the last episode should be one of those models like in the old PCF holding a Voodoo card in the one hand and a geforce titan z in the other hand, on a titanfall backdrop with a headline text "a titan has fallen". That way its wrong on 3 levels (4 maybe)

I won't mind if the domain name changes/moved but as long as it redirects at first. I never saw this as a gear forum to begin with even when the change came in. I still every now and then but the biggest contributers already moved on (still dont know what happened during that banning incident). This...

In this day and age of digital everywhere (despite the network running into issues here at the very moment) I do see a magazine to be a bit dated even if I prefer reading paper and watching videos on screen. The fact that EA pulled the biggest willy move in magazine history with front pages covering...

PSN Store update but the best parts where already leaked or mentioned: http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2014/04/02/new-playstation-store-batman-arkham-origins-blackgate-mercenary-kings-mlb-14/ Batman Arkham Origins Blackgate is now available for PS3. Beyond that for PSN+ Mercenary Kings - PS4 Sly Coop...

Path of Exile now implemented a pay to win model.

Ways to boost a low level is to set to torment lvl6 on a lvl1 character and have a lvl60 or 70 with massive amounts of dps join or a lvl1 could join a lvl70 on torment 1 or 2.

My wizard has 8mil toughness and 400k dps. I wish I had over a mill dps but I guess its going to take time.

I'd say loot 2.0 got nerfed. The drops prior to RoS where all class specific items and now its random again which is better imo, but like you said, useless stat and drop allocations.

Work station GPUs has always been priced much much higher than the gaming graphics cards we use. I remember the radeon 9700pro price vs that of the wildcat card. The price difference was enormous and gaming performance in favour of the 9700. That said the top end workstation gpus can hold up in gami...

So a new SLI titan, the Titan Z, is set for release with everything the titan had but doubled. 12GB of ram, more cuda cores, the works. A steal at $3000. http://www.tomshardware.com/news/geforce-titan-z-nvidia-gk110-cuda,26391.html I'm actually interested in the pascal gpus but 2 years is a long lon...

PSN Store update for 26 March: http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2014/03/26/new-playstation-store-fez-destiny-spirits-deception/ Highlights are PS4/PS3/PSV - Fez the game is up for crossbuy, PSN+ gets an additional 20% off. Nothing stands out this week except that PSVita is getting a free to play title...

So the game is finally out. Inserted my D3 RoS CE key, played the game a bit, and got a reminder of why I stopped playing Diablo 3 in the first place. The game is laggy with all the attention is getting. So it will take some time for people to leave again so blizzards server activities can get back ...
