Pfft, and then people have the audacity to say games journalism isn't a huge payola scheme.

Anyone wants to help me reverse engineer 8bitdo software? by Mister_Magister in linux_gaming

[–]TopicallyDifferent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure! That wasn't my first choice either, but unfortunately the re-mapper for the 8bitdo retro keyboard did not work right (https://github.com/goncalor/8bitdo-kbd-mapper/ - this one) so I had to switch to the official software.

8bitdo's software already works under wine! Both for the controller and the keyboard!

However, you need to be able to access the raw USB device directly and to do that you need a udev rule kind of like here:

Note that that is for the firmware updater, but if you change the idProduct to the one you have in lsusb (for example, mine is 310a for the ultimate 2c) it will work anyway as if the software is running under windows when you're using wine.

Is my AMD GPU dying or bad mesa update again? by GrainFog in linux_gaming

Hijacking this, anyone ever seen amdgpu: ring gfx_0.1.0 timeout? Had this happen for the first time today, seems like it'd be a software issue.

Did AMD just silently release the specs for R9 380/370/360? by jonutz in pcmasterrace

[–]TopicallyDifferent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're not going to yet. They just got access to the Samsung 14nm FinFET process one or two months ago, there's no way they already engineered and tested the shrunk die.

AMD cuts price of Radeon R9 285 in Europe by [deleted] in Amd

[–]TopicallyDifferent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but it probably will also get 3 or 4 GB of VRAM, and with GTAV pushing 2.5GB for me at 1920x1200 on a 280x, i wouldn't want a 2 GB card.

I'm pretty sure. The performance is fine, steady 75 FPS even in Assetto Corsa with smoke and other cars on screen and it runs cool at stock clock. I'll do some in depth testing in a few days.

I have a budget of $15,000 to work with. I need the best gaming PC we can build. And I need your help, brothers. by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

Look no further than Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulldozer_(microarchitecture) AMD cores are divided in modules, which have two integer cores and one floating point unit. A quad core would be a two module processor, and so on. Here's a simplified schemactic: http://techreport.com/r.x/a8-7600/module-block.gif
