Gigabyte GTX 960 G1 Gaming Edition Review
The GeForce GTX 960 is one of NVIDIA’s recently released graphics card (only the Titan X is more recent). With the GTX 960, NVIDIA brought their super power-efficient Maxwell architecture to the mainstream. This card is based on a new silicon codenamed GM206. NVIDIA’s third chip based on “Maxwell”, the GM206 is supposed to be a successor to the GK106 on which NVIDIA built the GeForce GTX 660. The new GTX 960, however, is meant to replace the GTX 660 and GTX 760 in the product stack as it offers slightly higher performance at much less power draw and noise, with greater room for price-cuts. It also brings some of the new features introduced with “Maxwell” to the masses, such as real-time voxel illumination, MFAA (multi-frame sampled anti-aliasing), Dynami...
MGS V to be Bundled With Nvidia GPUs
Nvidia is the replacing Batman Arkham Knight bundle with Metal Gear Solid V: the Phantom Pain. Nvidia bundles The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and Batman: Arkham Knight with the GTX 970 and 980.

Afterwards, a Newegg spokesman said “Hi everyone! We had a little slip up and posted this deal ahead of schedule. It is not currently available, but stay tuned, it will be soon!” MGS V The Phantom Pain comes out in two months, and is readily anticipated by fans, while Batman: Arkham Knight is still plagued with numerous issues and is still off of the shelves. Rocksteady and WB are fixing the PC version, with a patch co...
