The Tech Report

Let's start with the best part of this episode: we're releasing it on a good old-fashioned Sunday night. (Well, Monday in the AM, but who's counting?) Besides the impeccable timing, this episode is a fantastic assortment of GDC expectation, PC hardware controversy, and in-depth discussion of AMD's Carrizo APU and a svelte PC case. Plus, listener mail!

his episode has it all: PC hardware pundits complaining about Samsung and the NSA, Cyril speculating on what's next for Nvidia, in-depth discussions of quartile displays, and a look at Intel's newest NUC. There's literally no reason you shouldn't listen. Like, no reason.

Join us for another rousing episode of the TR Podcast. Our discussion topics include a slew of Windows 10 updates (including the Cortana assistant and Xbone streaming), Jordan's allegiance transfer from Steve Jobs to Elon Musk, Scott's investigative reporting on Nvidia's GeForce GTX 970, and much more!

We're back and kicking off the new year! Did you miss us? Well, we missed you (sort of). Join us as we go though more CES PC hardware news and discussion than should likely be allowed. From all your favorite companies—AMD, Intel, Nvidia, Asus and more—come the craziest and coolest new tech, as told by Scott and his crack CES team.

We're still steaming each of our podcast recording sessions live on Twitch. If you want a combination of our dulcet tones and, quite frankly, stunning visages, you'd do well to catch the next show live—or check out the YouTube edition of this show below.

This episode kicks off with the latest and greatest geek movie trailers, namely Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Terminator Genisys (really don't like how they're spelling that name). Then it's straight into listener mail before a series of news and reviews. Highlights include Jordan feeling left out of... well, pretty much everything, and Geoff continuing his torturous SSD experiment.

We're still live streaming each of these new podcast episodes on Twitch.Tv... so yeah, that's still a thing. If you want a combination of our dulcet tones and, quick frankly, stunning visages, you'd do well to catch the show live or check out our YouTube edition.

It's a power-packed episode we've put together for your listening pleasure. We introduce two guests, JJ from Asus and our own Jeff Kampman, and discuss a wide variety listener questions, news and reviews—including the woes of Assassin's Creed Unity, Corsair's Carbide Series Air 240 case, and more.

Jordan is gone. Again. No idea where he went... and frankly, don't ask.

Othwerwise, our fearless panelists fare just fine, not only answering a variety of live questions from our Twitch.tv livestream but also covering a wide slew of tech news and reviews.

Windows 10 is the headline of this week's episode... so, naturally, none of our panelists have installed the preview build yet. But don't you worry; that doesn't stop us from engaging in a rousing discussion of all things Windows! Moving on, we cover a quick AMD story, and then we dive into the peculiar Gigabyte X99-UD4 motherboard—the mobo with more than a few tricks up its sleeve. Finally, our new hardware survey and Scott's hands-on experience with Nvidia's Dynamic Super Resolution bring our show to a close.

We did something new this episode of the podcast. We opened the doors to the sausage factory and live streamed how it's all made. The results were nothing short of horrifying. If you're feeling adventurous (it is almost Halloween after all), click here to see the raw, uncut podcast carnage for yourself.

Otherwise, this podcast covers a wide gamut of topics including new products from Apple, the new Avengers trailer, earnings from Intel, Apple and AMD, and a ton of other stuff.

This is the part of the show notes where we list out all the great things you'll hear on this episode of the podcast. Here's the thing though... all that information is listed out nicely in the "Tech Discussion" bullets below. So why do you need to keep reading this section? It's a waste of your precious, precious, time! In fact, why am I wasting MY time writing this? 162 episodes of show notes... do you know how many hundreds of hours of show notes I've written? Think of how much I could have been accomplishing with my life if I had just through to tell you to read the listed article headlines literally an inch of screen real-estate below this section!!!

I need a drink.
