No BS Podcast #196: Nvidia Titan, Windows Blue, and Your Questions

Summary: Two podcasts in one month? We share because we care What's this? A new podcast already? Well, that's just how much we love you. And it gets us out of the salt mine for about an hour and a half. Not that benchmarking GTX Titans all day is a hard-knock life. In No BS podcast episode 196, we rotated in our trusty intern Chris, giving Online Managing Editor Jimmy Thang and Editor-in-Chief Katherine Stevenson some time to plot writing assignments and other devious shenanigans. This time around our hot topics include: - GeForce Titan performance - Windows Blue rumors - Google Glass - Intel's Clovertrail+ CPU And we can't forget editor's picks for software, hardware apps and whatnot: - Chris Zele: GParted Live, an ISO for managing storage drive partitions. - Tom McNamara: Corsair Neutron GTX, a 240GB solid-state drive. - Gordon Ung: Slimdrivers, a program that helps keep your drivers up-to-date. - Josh Norem: Pocket, for saving Web pages to read later, and on other devices. We also took a few questions and comments from the Twitters and Facebooks and nearly managed to answer them! Also, we did some fiddling with the Ares II (the liquid-cooled card from Asus with two Radeon 7970 GPUs on it) after this podcast was recorded, and we ended up getting some much better performance. It's actually a very cool and quiet performer, so disregard our comments about it being loud. It is the opposite of loud.  If you have feedback for the show, please leave it in the comments.
