I’m beginning to see a very very clear and extremely disappointing trend in these reviews as I read them. I’m sure anyone taking even a cursory glance at the graphs in these reviews should understand what I mean.
Still, I’m going to try and find at least one more review before I say more.
((…I don’t see that much difference between the FX-4100 and the FX-8150...

The Octane Renderer Gallery →
Octane Render is a rendering engine that uses path tracing to provide high quality realistic results on an entirely GPU based solution. All you need to use it is a CUDA enabled Nvidia graphics card.

Okay... Seriously... What Is This?
How is stuff like this working? I’m talking about the little ponies running around everypony’s tumblrs recently. {there should be one on that blog}
It clearly isn’t tied directly into the theme, because ponies with a lot of varied themes are using the same thing. So how is it working then? I know it’s loading some kind of program when you first load the page, because I see...
