Sapphire Radeon HD 7790 Dual-X: Offspring

The latest GPU that AMD made was in March of last year. Since then, Southern Islands series consisted of three models, off of which a great many number of Radeon models were based. Still, some changes had to be made after the competition introduced GeForce GTX 650 Ti. Aside from that, Radeon HD 7850 with 1 GB of memory had to be sent in early retirement because of stopped production of GDDR5 chips with 1 GB/256 bits configuration. AMD’s plans were momentarily disrupted, because a great gap was made between Radeon HD 7770 and HD 7850. The gap always existed, because Cape Verde and Pitcairn were too different. Lucky for AMD, that wasn’t as noticeable up until the moment the competition introduced a model that could fill that gap and that was GeForce GTX 650 Ti. The answer wasn’t simple and that’s why we had to wait for a while. Namely, the weakened Pitcairn wasn’t an adequate solution, because it was made for a 256-bit bus, and it probably wouldn’t have been enough of them to satisfy the great demand of the middle class. Not to mention that the price of production couldn’t be lowered enough in order for it to be tempting to customers. On the other hand, Cape Verde reached its peak on HD 7770, and as such couldn’t be further altered.

ASUS P8Z77-V Deluxe: Excellent equipment for great performance

If you’re a demanding customer, a good motherboard is a very important thing, because it represents the basis of a good PC. Therefore, a right choice is important if you want it to last. Besides, high-quality models can help to reduce other expenses. Let’s say you realize at some point that you need more SATA 6 Gbps or USB 3.0 ports. In that case, you’d have to either buy a new motherboard or buy a controller, which would take up a slot. In both cases, you’ll have more expenses. Aside from that, models like we’re about to review has some other qualities. Therefore, let’s see what P8Z77-V Deluxe offers.

Google combines free storage to 15GB

Google decided to combine Gmail, Drive and Google+ storage into one unified cloud space. Instead of having 10 GB for Gmail and another 5 GB for Drive and Google+ Photos, you’ll now get 15 GB of unified storage for free to use as you like between Drive, Gmail, and Google+ Photos. "With this new combined storage space, you won’t have to worry about how much you’re storing and where. For example, maybe you’re a heavy Gmail user but light on photos, or perhaps you were bumping up against your Drive storage limit but were only using 2 GB in Gmail. Now it doesn’t matter, because you can use your storage the way you want." posted Clay Bavor, Director of Product Management. These changes to Google Drive storage will roll out over the next couple of weeks.
