Intel’s ARC Alchemist series, which is based on the DG2 GPU family, is of course not yet on the market, but the introduction of the DG1 as a retail card has certainly aroused desires. After all, the DG1 GPUs were initially only available for software developers(see our first review), but found their way finally also into the discrete DIY [...]
The new final version 1.3.8. of the MorePowerTool offers, in addition to new functions, of course a thoroughly revised engine, which significantly simplifies the use of the tool. Even though the file size has increased somewhat as a result, the direct implementation of various libraries directly in the tool also offers many advantages, which in [...]
We already had all the relevant information about the Ryzen 6000 for mobile use at CES, but AMD has now added some more details. Zen3+ features the improved Zen 3 cores with up to 5 GHz clock and a new RDNA 2 graphics with a targeted doubling of performance. The whole thing is manufactured in TSMC’s N6 and also features a completely new [...]
Only 115 instead of 130 watts TBP: The GeForce RTX 3050 8GB will, that is for sure, come soon with two different GPUs, which definitely makes a difference for the end customer. Not only is the card now readily available, but the street price is also dropping more and more. This makes them quite interesting, but you will soon have to be careful [...]
Once again: On Hold. This short information from most sources about the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti coincides with the current situation: Date unknown. Of course, it’s no secret that the cards have actually been ready for a long time, but a few details that could be picked up from the various board partners (AIC) are quite spicy. A few weeks ago, in [...]

If you know OGS, you won’t be surprised to hear that the Greek overclocking team has once again set new world records, this time with an AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT GPU using MorePowerTool, an Elmorlabs EVC2SX and of course lots of liquid nitrogen. Stavros and Phil managed to overclock the GPU to an unbelievable 3310 MHz and thus topped various [...]
G.Skill shows a new DDR5 overclocking world record with 8888 Mbps on Trident Z5 memory. Together with a Maximus Z690 Apex motherboard from Asus and an Intel Core i9-12900K processor, overclocker “lupin_no_musume” has set a new world record for the highest RAM clock. Just as extreme as the frequency is the cooling used for this in the [...]

Today I turn for the first time in detail to AMD’s upcoming Socket AM5 (version 2), as it will be used for the upcoming Raphael CPUs (Ryzen 7000). AMD consequently changes from the PGA (Pin Grid Array) with the contacts on the CPU to the much easier to handle LGA (Land Grid Array) because of the large number of required (1718) pins. After we [...]
Nvidia’s Omniverse real-time design and simulation technology launches into public availability today. Behind the name is a portfolio of tools and plugins for various applications that use RTX to accelerate simulations and design processes. The Omniverse software suite is free and can be obtained by anyone for free from Nvidia. Additional [...]
The Seasonic Prime Fanless TX-700 is a new but quite expensive passive power supply bursting with superlatives. And yet there is a seemingly fundamental design problem that the layman cannot detect in this way and that can nevertheless lead to consequential damage to the connected hardware. Of course, I don’t want to anticipate the detailed [...]
Intel is now set to disable “AVX-512” completely on all Alder Lake CPUs with an upcoming microcode update in new BIOS releases. Mainboard manufacturers were able to make the supposedly disabled instruction set available at launch, which resulted in a significant performance increase for the P-cores of the new CPUs. Now Intel is [...]

As if the news from the graphics card sector wasn’t already bad enough and the market is empty as it rarely is, according to several of my own sources, the official announcement of these models, which was rumored for Dec. 17, 2021, is also to be dropped. According to the manufacturers, only the presentation of the new consumer top model [...]
It was around midnight an not the first time (and will certainly not be the last time), but a DDos attack is always less beautiful (but superfluous as a crop), no matter how elaborate and extensive it has now taken place. However, I go for 2 years, despite a powerful Epyc server and a redundant connection in the data center, the somewhat safer way [...]
Badly fitting coolers, too low performance with actually good waterblocks and bent CPUs – meanwhile not only the feedback of the readers is piling up, but also very similar reports from the board partners, cooler manufacturers and system integrators. Based on my own experiences, I went in search of clues and first tried to sort out [...]

Today it’s about non-existing coolers for unavailable RAM, so once again pure unicorn cinema for all who are only missing the RAM for the new Intel system with DDR5 modules. The fact that the parts want to be well cooled, and even have to be, is beyond question, especially when overclocking. Because what is quite often installed ex works is [...]
