Still a fan of a special question per month that's interesting, but maybe not worth to be included in the survey, BTW.

Quoting: ShmerlCan you please add monitor refresh rate and usage of adaptive sync points? Those are directly gaming related and would be interesting to see, in addition to already existing resolution.I thought of asking for Variable Refresh Rate / Adaptive Sync as well.

While I'm all happy with Nvidia personally, "Coreboot, Open Controller Firmware and NVIDIA" sounds like a strange combination. Who's eager on having even their BIOS open (all fine with that, don't get me wrong) and still wants their GPU drivers closed?

Quoting: Liam DaweI agree I think we're long passed the point where the timing on Wine based questions make sense so they will be removed.Just was going to ask. I really think it's useful to have something WINE/Proton related! I don't care for the difference, though. Like, are you buying Windows only games to play on Linux? Regularly, seldom, only whitelisted Proton, never-ever.
Edit: Wine/Steam Play questioning was removed. In future, we may look to introduce other questions about them but the previous questions didn't fit with the way this survey works and frankly they weren't even useful. Thanks for the feedback. This does streamline it a bit too for now :)

I wonder how many people think of updating their "when did you use ... last time" answer every now and then...

Wonder what the result of the huge bundle is. People got to know itch.io and they're selling more - or everybody using itch.io is so full of games for years to come that they don't sell anything anymore.

Quoting: soulsourceI wouldn't have known "ISPC" either... :DQuoting: EikeWhoa, sorry. I can't seem to type the abbreviation without mixing up letters. I'll edit my orignal post.Quoting: soulsourceI didn't play games this weekend.If you're wondering the save as me:
On Friday I discovered how awesome Intel ISCP can be, so I kept working through the weekend. I just couldn't stop, simply because for some of our code just porting it from C++ improved performance by a factor of 15 (on Intel Skylake - on AMD Jaguar the improvement is more like a factor of 7, but still impressive....), and I didn't want that endorphin rush to stop.

Quoting: NeurosaurThanks a lot for the review! I've decided to leave the demo on Steam after the festival, so there's no time restrictions =).Thanks, I'll give it a try then!
