Making the most of your system and raising the possibility of some interesting builds.

From Hexus:

Surprising new details regarding how Microsoft's new DirectX 12 API will work and the impactful implications for PC users and builders have been uncovered by Tom's Hardware US.

Secondly these graphics resources may work between rival the GPU products from AMD, Nvidia and Intel.
