There are days when you would prefer not to get up at all. And there are devices that are still standing. Still. Like Toni’s flatulence station, which just ran Thor’s hammer….
According to Intel insiders, the company will significantly upgrade its graphics card drivers, especially for older games that use DirectX9. In recent months, PC Games Hardware had focused heavily on the status of the Intel Arc graphics card drivers, mainly because Intel had several problems with the software for the Arc GPUs during the launch [...]
A new article has been published on AMD’s community page that deals with the current Radeon RX 7000/6000 GPUs. In the current performance rankings, the latest RDNA3 GPUs naturally occupy the top places, but they are also a lot more expensive than their RDNA2 predecessors at the same time. Bearbeite die Übersetzung in Deutsch The chart shows [...]
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 [...]
AMD has released its latest Radeon Software 23.1.2 drivers, which only support the RX 7000 series and not previous generation cards. According to TechpowerUp, it has now been 48 days since the red team released a driver for its previous generation cards. 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 [...]
Today we are going to round two with the EK Quantum Vector2 FE RTX 4090 D-RGB. A GeForce RTX 4090 FE is per se well cooled and the original cooler is actually also perfectly sufficient. So one would hardly have a valid reason as a buyer to disassemble and rebuild this collectible. Well, almost none, because the weight and space requirements of [...]
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. Probably the best known SKU is the Radeon VII, a high-end model with 3840 cores, 16 GB HBM2 memory and over 1 TB/s bandwidth. The company has also developed several other Radeon cards based on the Vega 20, such as the Radeon Pro VII, a [...]
Today is finally the day – loyal readers won’t be surprised by this –, for Intel’s last and fastest LGA1700 CPU we also have binning data for you once more. Thanks to MIFCOM, we were able to run almost 200 chips through our testing routine again, and now you get to see the results. Plus, there’s a treat waiting for all (hobby) [...]
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 software can completely remove all the data left by the graphics drivers, including registry data, folders and files, and driver memory. The software was developed by Wagnard and works [...]
Today follows the last part of this little hobby project, but the end comes with a bang (metaphorically): Ryzen 7, 16GB RAM and a proud 32TB of storage. I had already teased the slightly extended version of the normal NAS, now it can finally show what it can do! The title already gave it away, for this system, which can also be used as a server [...]
According to the latest sales data from TechEpiphany, NVIDIA has already sold 545 models of the RTX 4070 Ti in the third week of January. This primarily includes all variants sold by the German retailer Mindfactory. This number is higher than the RTX 4080 and RTX 4090, which totaled 210 and 190 units, respectively…. The fact that so many RTX [...]
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 [...]
No, it is not a contradiction, but transparent plastic tube (usually PVC) is cheap to buy, but really expensive in follow-up costs. Who can, prefer to go for hard tubing or such nice things as EPDM or Teflon, but there are also situations where you end up torn as to what it should be. And many a person is afraid to take anything other than PVC [...]
Groundhog day, again and again. Today, I’m pushing up a classic review for you to enjoy on a cold winter Sunday, and it was a very interesting experiment. Already 12 years ago I had tested various things up to the adhesive cream for the third for their thermal conductivity. However, this time I have modified the classics a bit and included [...]
