PCSX4

PCSX4 is a PlayStation 4 & PlayStation 4 Pro emulator which allows you to play PS4 games on your PC. It requires your PS4 console to grab “play-station device identifier” (PDIX) and original PS4 games. To avoid illegal activities and misuse of source code, PCSX4 is made semi open source. Only 64bit Windows 7, 8.1, 10 is supported with .net framework 3.5 and VC++2015. Windows 7 users need to install directx 11.1 platform update KB2670838-x64 if it’s not already installed. Support for macOS and Linux may be added in future when OpenGL libraries are ready.
PCSX4 is optimized to use up to 8 cores of a processor but requires at least 4 core processor with SSE-4.2 and AVX.
Intel: Core-i5 3xxx and later is supported.
AMD: FX-41xx and later is supported.
CPU performance and stability with PCSX4 differs drastically and it is difficult to tell which processor works perfectly. Some mobile based i5 and i7 processors may cause performance glitches due to lower clock rates.
PCSX4 requires a GPU to support at least Direct 3D 11.1 and Pixel shader model 5.0.
Nvidia: GeForce GTX 660 or higher is required.
AMD: AMD Radeon 7870 or higher is required.
To run every game smoothly @60FPS with 1080p resolution, GeForce GTX 970 or Radeon R9-290X can be recommended. PCSX4 does support 4K resolution but it is very difficult to reach 60FPS even with dual high-end GPU’s. 4GB is a minimum requirement for PCSX4 but 6GB or more is recommended. RAM with higher clock rates may increase game loading times when used together with the SSD as game cache disk. A PlayStation device identifier (.pdix) is a file generated and extracted from a PS4 console which contains encrypted identifiers info which is unique for every device. PDIX must be linked to your PCSX4 account in order to play games. PDIX is extracted using userland code execution method. (thanks to CTurt) To extract PDIX, navigate to https://pcsx4.com/extract-pdix on your PS4 web browser. There is no way you can run pirated games, PCSX4 game cache/install is encrypted with 256-bit header with .pdix hash which is linked to your PCSX4 account. We have a strict policy about piracy, please buy original games and support their developers.
PCSX4 account stores unique Machine-id and PDIX for each account, if our system detects any illegal activity, your account and ip-address will be permanently banned from our servers.

Microsoft's new web browser is up to 112% faster than Google Chrome?

Google’s Chrome web browser is the most popular web browser in the world right now,according to StatCounter but Microsoft’s new web browser for Windows 10, called Edge, might prove to be superior.In a Windows blog post on Wednesday, Gabe Aul, Microsoft’s head of the Windows Insider program, announced a new set of benchmarks for Microsoft Edge, the company’s new web browser made for Windows 10.

Microsoft Edge showed significant performance gains over Google Chrome, but what’s most impressive is that Microsoft used benchmarks created by Apple and Google: Edge was tested using Google Octane, Apple JetStream, and WebKit Sunspider. That last one is actually a benchmark created by Apple’s WebKit development team that’s intended for the iOS, Mac, and Windows versions of Safari, Apple’s web browser.

According to the benchmark results, Microsoft Edge was 112% faster than Google Chrome on WebKit Sunspider, 11% faster on Google Octane, and 37% faster on Apple JetStream.

“We’re really pleased with those performance gains and we hope that you’ll enjoy faster browsing with Microsoft Edge along with the many great features we’ve added over the last several builds,” Aul said.

If these results are accurate, Microsoft Edge could soon be the web browser of choice for Windows users, considering its power and efficiency. At the very least, these kinds of performance improvements could spur other web browsers like Chrome to innovate and improve their own products. But as it stands right now, this looks like a great reason to try Windows 10 when it launches later this year.
Windows 10 will be a free download for Windows 7 and Windows 8 users.
