Last year it was only in April, but this time the spring cleaning of AMD’s drivers is already in March. Six days before the GDC keynote, AMD is now releasing RSR, i.e. the Radeon Super Sampling based on Fidelity FX Super Sampling, to the gaming world today and it will be interesting to test this new implementation in practice soon. In [...]
Can Intel’s Xe Max, i.e. our dedicated DG1 card in the form of the GUNNIR Iris Xe MAX Index V2, actually do light workstation stuff? You don’t have to test Office application, for that it’s quite enough. But what about lighter work in the productive field, which can still be done quite well with AMD’s Radeon Pro W6400, for [...]
The new, final version 1.3.9 of the MorePowerTool offers, in addition to new functions, of course, again the 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 [...]
So, finally the time has come and today I can show you detailed benchmarks with the GUNNIR Iris Xe MAX Index V2 – Intel’s DG1, which can offer a first taste of Intel’s ARC Alchemist series, which is based on the newer DG2 GPU family. However, this is not yet on the market, so this first freely available retail card of the DG1 has [...]
The fact, that the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti with 16 GB memory expansion has now been cancelled without replacement, was already suspected and was also reported by many media. The reasons are likely to be the unstable and problematic GDDR6X with 2 GB size. Here, it can be assumed that Micron has made a technical mistake, because besides the instability [...]
I had discussed it last week and also thoroughly tested how the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3080 GAMING OC WATERFORCE WB can behave in the water cooling loop. The problems around the aluminum used and the rather rustic build quality including a holey anodizing were also and primarily based on the amount of complaints and hints received and a detailed [...]
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 [...]
Due to a given occasion, I now even have to add a third part to my water cooling investigations. It will unfortunately show what happens when you combine (without knowing it) an aluminum cooler with copper components and I will specifically question why the result turns out so extreme, as in this case. Of course, you also have to differentiate the [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
After a good year of dealing with current and competitive hardware and hanging out in the overclocker community, my current focus is on older graphics cards of the Radeon HD series for DirectX 11 applications. For this, I always give myself a budget of up to about 20 Euros, look what I can get used on the net for it and try to set new records with [...]
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 [...]

With the GeForce RTX 3050, NVIDIA not only counters AMD’s very unfortunate Radeon RX 6500XT, but also rounds off its own portfolio even further downwards. The performance data has been cleverly chosen so that it is quite sufficient for Full HD in contrast to the AMD card, even though FPS junkies will certainly have to bake somewhat smaller [...]
The fact that the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti, which is already rumored for 01/27/22, is postponed quite a bit might even have several different reasons, but they certainly have to be considered in context with each other. That there is in fact a delay, one could already read everywhere, but unfortunately not, why exactly. The tight-lippedness among [...]
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 [...]
