By using the GPU to decompress game content, Microsoft’s DirectStorage technology can certainly improve load times. Could, at least in theory. Consequently, the more data that is then processed via the GPU, the more likely it is that gamers will notice a loss of graphics performance. The German PC Games Hardware team demonstrated just that [...]
To date, MaxSun has only launched one RTX 40 GPU, the RTX 4080 iCraft. The company’s RTX 4070 Ti and RTX 4080 models have a lot more in common, as they both use a similar 3-slot design with 3 fans. But more importantly, they also have the same white cooler outfit. The iCraft MaxSun RTX 4070 Ti relies on the usual AD104 GPU with 7680 [...]
The Taiwanese company was in no hurry to introduce its latest WinFast model. The card follows the design of the RTX 4090/4080 variants, which also feature three fans with a large X-shaped cover. In terms of size, the RTX 4070 Ti is just as thick as the AD102/103-based models and requires 3.5 slots (68.3 mm). However, it is slightly shorter (~3 cm) [...]
We remember that NVIDIA launched an updated version of the RTX 3060 Ti model in October last year, but we haven’t seen a proper review of this card until now, probably because the availability of these cards was limited. Now the Polish ithardware site has the KFA2/GALAX RTX 3060 Ti G6X OC model available and has done a comparison with RTX [...]

The lack of updates for older AMD graphics cards, especially for the Radeon RX 6000 GPUs, is [...]
Youtubers Iskandar Souza and Paulo Gomes recently unveiled an investigation into third-party GPU vendors and resellers painting over certain areas of graphics cards to make them appear newer. The two accuse crypto miners of finding increasingly inventive ways to resell overused graphics cards for profit. Paint was discovered on GPUs sold by crypto [...]
The fact that the MorePowerTool from Hellm and the Red BIOS Rebellion Team (R.B.R.T.) in the background for RDNA3 will no longer exist in the usual form has already been reported by some media, but somewhat unreflected and unfortunately with insufficient source information. It is important for us to note that the R.B.R.T is not a group of [...]
A range of Vega 20 models have been unveiled by AMD, including workstation, data center and even gaming cards.

The company has also developed several other Radeon cards based on the Vega 20, such as the Radeon Pro VII, a [...]
AMD unlocks OC for Ryzen 7000X3D or is this just another bug? AMD’s product pages can be quite misleading in parts. Earlier this month, the Ryzen 7000X3D pages already made headlines when AMD updated them with a February 14 launch date, only to later confirm that this was a mistake. Even a few weeks later, we still don’t know when [...]
DDU is an indispensable software for all GPU enthusiasts. Reviewers and gamers know this very well, and this is where Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) comes in.

The first angled power adapters for RTX 40 GPUs are now commercially available and one user on Reddit has already purchased such a 12VHPWR adapter from modDIY and is already using it with his ASUS TUF RTX 4090. Of course, it solves the main problem with the original cable, namely the space required when bending. The adapter that is used now is [...]
The 12VHPWR cable is probably a fragile thing to be careful with, and it's unfortunately now the standard for all NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 graphics cards. Manufacturers of power supplies and custom cables like CableMod have gone a step further to offer more durable cables, but it looks like even these can burn out if not connected properly. In [...]
