While fans of the RX 480 patiently await a Nitro, or indeed any other custom-cooled alternative, Nvidia’s army of partners has already unleashed a tidal wave of diverse GTX 1060s. All the big names are lining up to send their cards in for review – heck, we may even have to turn some away at this rate – and though retail volume remains something of a question mark during launch week, there’s no shortage of non-reference designs. First on the HEXUS test bench is the MSI GeForce GTX 1060 Gaming X.

AMD on 19th July, released a WHQL-signed version of Radeon Software Crimson Edition 16.7.2 drivers. The company first released the RSCE 16.7.2 as a Beta on the 12th of July. The change-log of the new 16.7.2 WHQL drivers don’t say exactly what is different between the 16.7.2 Beta and the 16.7.2 WHQL; so we guess it’s just 16.7.2 with WHQL certification.

You can download the Radeon Software Crimson Edition version 16.7.2 WHQL drivers here.

The Command LIVE project has officially taken off. The first release, Old Grudges Never Die, is available for purchase at the Matrix Games Store and on Steam.

We are really proud of this first episode and of the project as a whole. Developers WarfareSim and Bart Gauvin, an experienced designer from the community, have worked hard to bring this project to life and this is only the start. It’s the first time a detailed simulation takes on real life events to create such detailed fictional, but true-to-life scenarios.

Old Grudges Never Die, in particular,features a highly detailed geopolitical what if scenario, set in the present day Syrian Civil War.

Two playable factions, Turkey and Russia, have been engrossed in this conflict, where every false step could further destabilize the entire region. With dozens of actors involved, the slightest incident could ignite a war.

Take command and avoid escalating the conflict to an all out war, or be ready to face the consequences!

Command Live: Old Grudges Never Die now and play history as it happens. Live!

The game is an expansion for Command: Modern/Air Naval Operations and require the base game to be played.

Heatsink designs are driven by the fundamental principle that a larger surface area equates to better heat dissipation than a smaller area. Factoring in componential consent, modern aftermarket CPU tower heatsinks had to get creative to compensate and dial-in the efficiency needed, hence the rise of dual-tower cooler designs. By isolating the two ends of the heatpipe set into two separate fin arrays, the active cooling fan can cool faster due to the smaller area. Dual-tower design also results in better performance with two fans since it is pushing cool air into relatively the same fin array size rather than relegating one of the fans to simply pulling hot air. This dual-tower design is utilized in one of Scythe’s latest tower cooling solution called the Fuma.
