The Radeon RX 7900XTX and the Radeon RX 7900XT are supposed to fix it for AMD in December and leave the good “old” Ada standing in the corner in shame. At least one hopes so. If, how and why, you will of course find out soon and in due time, because today is first of all the big weighing of the fighters and the obligatory meat [...]

While AMD has already shown the reference cards of their Radeon RX 7900XT(X) several times and also confirmed the launch date for the 13th of December 2022, you might have to put a question mark behind the real models and quantities available on this day. While some sources speculate with only 10,000 reference cards each for EMEA and [...]
This is only the second time in almost 4 years that we have had to withdraw the award from an article. As much as we dislike doing such things, in the end it is always a matter of decency and respect for our readers to implement and explain such things. The item has an MSRP of 183 Euros, which is not justified by anything, and is also only sold [...]
Yesterday I had contact again with the PCI SIG regarding the deliberate plug, but in the end I only got a kind of text module as the only official statement, which is already known in parts. They did not want to (or could not) tell me more at the current time. The fact is, however, that the PCI SIG sees itself merely as a standardization body and [...]
First of all, we need to separate the terms and standards before we should even think about buying a new ATX 3.0 power supply. And to bring it right at the beginning times to the point: Panic buying is completely out of place and more or less intentional marketing! Or to put it more casually: in principle, no one needs the whole thing yet [...]
Text modules back and forth, you can already give yourself a little effort. Especially if the customer has purchased the premium product from the Nvidia store
In order to keep the speculation factor as low as possible on the one hand and not to violate one of the NDAs at the same time, I have to elaborate a bit more this time. The real problem, however, was the extremely different puzzle pieces from both manufacturers in various announcements, which doesn’t exactly simplify a preview of raster [...]
Long awaited and now finally here: AMD presented the third generation of the RDNA architecture yesterday evening. The company also unveiled the Radeon RX 7900 XTX and Radeon RX 7900 XT graphics cards at the same event. The former has a full Navi 31 GPU with 12288 stream processors, while the latter is based on a reduced GPU with 10752 cores [...]
Sometimes you also have to listen to your children and do a blind test once. Apart from the fact that there are obviously three or four adapter types with different solder pads and cables, the problem of the hot contact surfaces of the outer connectors must have a simpler reason. I already wrote on the subject of bending that the rigid pins in the [...]
First there were bent cables, then annoyed buyers of the at least 2000 euro expensive NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090, no matter which model or manufacturer. The manufacturer of the 4-pin adapter from 12VHPWR to 4x 8-pin for older power supplies was also careless. And, of course, we learned something once again in the course of our investigations. Since [...]
That this with the faulty 12VHPWR adapter (“must break”), whose investigation I had published this morning as an article and video, will not proceed without noises and a larger wave, was actually already clear before. But the fact that NVIDIA reacts so quickly and consistently to the pre-reporting did not only surprise me. You really [...]

Those who are now beating up on the new 12VHPWR (although I don’t really like the part either) may generate nice traffic with it, but they simply haven’t recognized the actual problem with the supposedly fire-hazardous and melting connections or cables. Even if certain YouTube celebrities are of a different opinion because they seem to [...]
After various render images of the new Morpheus 8069 GPU air cooler were leaked in the last few days due to rather unfortunate circumstances, which however do not officially come from Raijintek, but were picked up by a third party from an unprotected directory of the manufacturer’s server, I would like to turn the whole thing upside down a [...]
New curve options have been added. Of course we would be very happy about a feedback in the forum about the use of this new function! The More PowerTool (MPT) has been also revised once again for the detection of the installed graphics adapters (keyword Unicode) and also detects different variants of the driver entries. In case of doubt, the VGA [...]
I admit it, I just couldn’t resist the headline. After all, it’s the weekend and a short rest between all the launch actions that are more than just getting to the substance. Of course, I’m not just sitting in the office writing articles all the time, there are other things going on in the depths of the lab that allow me to sort [...]
Yesterday we were allowed to publish the first own pictures of NVIDIA’s upcoming graphics card generation, but we still have to keep quiet about further details up to the performance until the set launch day. Some clarification (certainly also in the sense of NVIDIA) would be urgently necessary. Because the outcry about the huge, heavy [...]
The third card in the bunch is the new MSI GeForce RTX 4090 SUPRIM X 24 GB and we also take a first look at the massive card in this short review. The look is exactly as dominant as feared, but the benchmarks will soon have to show the rest. Purely visually, the card is also a nice eye-catcher. Tensed? Sure you do! The data may also be revealed [...]
Finally, the time has come. At least almost. Today I can show you some new GeForce RTX 4090 24 GB and in this case we see the NVIDIA RTX 4090 Founders Edition, so to say NVIDIA’s own product. The appearance is martial and the benchmarks will have to show the rest soon. The FE is a real eye-catcher from a purely visual point of view. The data [...]
Finally, the time has come. At least almost. Today I can show you some new GeForce RTX 4090 24 GB and we take a first look at the black Gainward RTX 4090 Golden Sample 24 GB, so to say the counterpart to the Palit Game Rock, only without the bulky plastic mountains. The performance is not even as dominant as feared, but the benchmarks will soon [...]
