New open source GPU is free to all — FuryGPU runs Quake at 60fps, supports modern Windows software
www.tomshardware.com
FuryGPU is currently capable of running Quake at 720p and 60fps.

From the reports it is nowhere near proprietary systems, yet. Its a great development though and it shows what a single person can do for the community. We should shower this person with praise!

    Aren’t non-competes not legal? It’s a pile of corporate America horseshit, you can win their asses in court

      IANAL, so I really do not know. But what I do know is that a lot of people do not have the resources to fight a company in court over it. I had an experience where I was unfairly terminated, and the lawyer I consulted with said I could take it to court, but it would most likely cost more than I’d receive. I’m sure that is a common sentiment in our (US) legal system as a whole.

      Non-competes aren’t enforceable, but proprietary “work-for-hire” clauses might be. I think the difference is that a company can’t stop you from working for a competitor, but they can force you to sign away your rights to anything you create while employed there. I have worked for a couple of big-box consulting companies, and they have you list anything you created before joining them, so any new creations are automatically theirs.
