Big picture mode. It seems like it hogs up the cpu resources now. I noticed it was doing that last night but I chalked it up to the game. But now I now it's that. I'm gonna test it again to see.

just saw this in the latest patch notes

Big Picture
  • Fixed a performance regression when Steam Big Picture would take all available CPU resources when minimized.

I'm not sure what that 755m SLI compares to, but it should be fine for Titanfall

you need a wireless receiver to use the wireless 360 pad. they're pretty cheap though

Anybody messed with Steam OS? I was trying to find articles for some real world data for gaming on it vs say Windows 8.1 and can't...:patrice:

If you have...what about the driver situation...i believe it's still in beta but how does it handle gpu drivers...can't find any info on that either :patrice:

Finally got that GTA IV modded up and working with my new 780 rig...

This game is such a pain in the ass to get working but that pain is all worth it when the end result is this...

a 755 in sli is a class 1 for lap top video cards you should be able to eat well and as far as your fps goes it depends also on the cpu a bit. And settings and Res your using. But I think you should be at over 40 fps

Gta iv was annoying setting up mods. I wish there was a easier way to mod it.
