Tesla Model X Smokes A Lamborghini Aventador In Drag Race [Video]

Posted in: Today's Chili

Tesla’s high-performance models offer a lot more performance than the other models and we often see videos pop up online showing just how fast these cars can be. Lamborghini is a bona fide manufacturer of supercars. The iconic manufacturer has cemented its place in history as one of the best supercar manufacturers on the planet and yet even one of its creations can end up being smoked by a Tesla Model X which doesn’t even have an engine.

A video has been posted online on YouTube by DragTimes to showcase just how much performance these Tesla models offer. It shows a Tesla Model X P100D crossover SUV taking part in a drag race against a Lamborghini Aventador, a supercar that costs over half a million dollars.

It’s remarkable that the Tesla Model X is capable of beating the Italian supercar, particularly when you factor in the fact that it weighs 5,400 pounds while the Aventador is a full 1,200 pounds lighter than the Tesla Model X.

Not only does the Tesla beat the Lamborghini in the drag race, it also sets a record for being the quickest SUV with a quarter mile time of 11.418 seconds while reaching a speed of almost 118 miles per hour.

This just goes to show that electric cars are no longer be considered glorified golf carts.

Forza 7 Minimum PC Specs Lowered

Posted in: Today's Chili


If you’ve been meaning to play Forza 7 on your PC, you’d be interested in knowing that the Forza 7 minimum PC specs have now been lowered. Turn 10, the developer of this much-awaited game, has now posted the updated PC specs for Forza 7. Turn 10 revealed during the Gamescom event that it had been able to optimize the game’s engine to enable it to run at 60fps on a wide range of PC hardware, this means that the specs requirement can now be lowered.

The Forza 7 minimum specs for PC now list an Intel Core i5-750 processor with the GTX 650 or FX-6300 graphics cards. The recommended specs have been lowered as well. The game can provide optimum performance on a Core i5-4460 processor paired to a GTX 670/GTX 1050 Ti or FX-8350 graphics card.

If you have a PC configured with the minimum specs for this game, then you’re going to get 720p at 60 frames-per-second. Those who have a PC that meets the recommended specs will be able to play the game at full 1080p HD at 60fps.

Those who want to play the game at 4K resolution and 60fps will need a Core i7-6700K processor coupled with a GTX 1080 or RX Vega 64 graphics card.

Turn 10 has also confirmed that for the very first time, PC players will receive a demo of the upcoming Forza game before it’s released. It didn’t confirm a date for the demo, though. Forza 7 is going to be released for Xbox One and PC on October 3rd.

iPhone 8 3D Face Scanner Reportedly Works ‘In The Millionths Of A Second’

Posted in: Today's Chili


There have been countless reports suggesting that Apple is not going to include a Touch ID fingerprint scanner in the iPhone 8. The company’s new flagship smartphone is expected to feature a 3D face scanner instead. The latest reports out of South Korea suggest that the iPhone 8’s 3D face scanner will be able to scan the user’s face “in the millionths of a second.”

What that basically means is that it’s going to be very fast. Users won’t notice any lag and the handset will be unlocked as soon as the scanner reads their face.

Apple is believed to be doing away with the Home button on the iPhone 8 since it’s likely going to be the very first iPhone from the company that has an OLED display. The screen-to-body ratio of the next iPhone is said to be quite impressive so it’s possibly going to have a nearly bezel-less display. Apple will have to remove the Home button if it wants to stretch out the display to all four edges.

Some have expressed concerns over Apple’s expected decision to do away with the Touch ID fingerprint scanner in favor of the face scanner. However, multiple reports suggest that Apple has been working hard to ensure that the face scanner on the iPhone 8 can securely identify the user’s face quickly and that too at various angles.

None of this has been officially confirmed by Apple as yet so take it with a grain of salt. Apple is expected to unveil its new iPhones at an event next month.
