Introduction Three big launch items are actually impossible for a quasi-one-man show, since the double launch was already a real hurdle. But something is possible and always, so that there will be a longer article about Navi from me today, which also contains a quite exclusive part, which you will surely only be able to read here today. Because I [...]
The GeForce RTX 2060 got several scolds for the launch, mainly because of the rather meagre memory expansion of only 6 GB, which was actually not appropriate for the purchase price. Now everything is supposed to be super and you are aiming with an EIA of 419 euros incl. Vat. in the end, a very similar class of buyers. The question is still the [...]
The fact that the RTX 2070 is being upgraded is one thing, because this card hasnot sold so badly. The other thing is the GeForce RTX 2070 Super, which wants to scratch the RTX 2080, which in turn, according to the distributors and the board partner, does not really want to be sold - at least as far as the expected quantities are concerned. Price [...]
What is really behind the information about Thermal Design Parameter (TDP) or GPU Power and Total Board Power (TBP) and Total Graphics Power (TGP), amD and Nvidia graphics cards, and who adheres to the self-imposed specifications? Here are the answers...
AMD has carried out the long-awaited presentation of Navi as part of the E3 and has already explained the most important thing during the event. Nevertheless, some questions remain unanswered, which I will have to clarify in the coming days or weeks. Unfortunately, this also includes AMD’s (new) information policy, not having written [...]
It is still incomprehensible to me why at the launch of the GeForce GTX 1650 almost exclusively models with external power supply were offered for testing. The cards, which in my view are much more interesting, are exactly the cards without external supply. If an almost tiny card comes out, it is all the more interesting for upstarts in the entry [...]
We know some heavy guys, but with the current GeForce-RTX models, Palit has taken a lot to heart, which has been repeatedly called for in the previous models. And the Game Rock Premium Edition (GRPE) really lives up to its name, because the part is a real mountain of graphics card, almost a small mountain. But I don't want to pre-empt the [...]
First of all, a company should be allowed to control and distribute the information about upcoming products without emotion. In this context, I think it's really positive that AMD's puberty speaker actions of the past few years have settled down. Well, the loudspeakers in question have now almost completely migrated towards Intel and are [...]
Today I received this news exclusively from several sales channels and it is all the more interesting that even in the headquarters of the large board partners the engineers were the last to get this information pierced. But what has actually been announced? Nvidia will remove the separation of the TU104-400 and TU106-400, i.e. the GeForce RTX [...]
The GeForce RTX 2060 1-Click OC from KFA2 deliberately places itself at the lower end of all GeForce RTX 2060, which is also expressed in the purchase price. But in addition to the savings that the manufacturer has to make for this, there are also various restrictions by the chip manufacturer, which must be reconciled. You can read what exactly it [...]
Yes, so I just couldn't miss this conversion. After I had already converted some cards in the past, this time the current GeForce GTX 1650 has to believe in it. And if you don't believe it, you can. It's actually going really well! Why and why, you only read it here...
Update from 24/04/2019 at 09.30 In the meantime I have also been able to insert all chart graphics. A total of 12 additional pages, also with single graphics for all tested maps, have been added. I will now add the rest in real time. Also the conclusion, which above all reflects why Nvidia probably made such a tin top because of the drivers. But [...]
Today you get a little insight behind the scenes of an exemplary graphics card production at PC Partner. I have simply summarized the sequences and also joined in on the schematic appropriate. A must for any tech freak!
Update:I have added the text (violet), as well as some more pictures for illustration. In addition, I have added a small picture section for the no-flow underfill, which show how currently graphics card boards are being equipped. That alone shows how idle so many discussions actually are. (20.04.2019 – 11:30) Do you remember my article [...]
It's a real shame that Nvidia is putting the new GeForce entry-level class so much into the non-focus. In fact, these "butter-and-bread" cards are not only ideal for system integrators and ready-made PC manufacturers, but also for the mostly young and not quite as cash-rich clientele. But even with the first "real" graphics [...]
Today, Nvidia is also opening this new DXR world to cards with Pascal chips, the driver makes it possible. However, it is also important to understand the limitations and circumstances if we want to take a look at the possible performance later. The technologies required for DXR, which Nvidia introduced at the same time as the new Turing cards, we [...]
Important preliminary remarks and setup At the beginning, of course, there was the consideration of how I should measure the whole thing as reproducibly and plausibly as possible. Do I take a mix of multiple games or just one with consistent results and a longer runtime? In the end, after many attempts, I opted for the latter, because it also [...]
Icebreakers and price breakers arenot quite accidental lycomal and so I was looking forward to the Raijintek Samos NV 2080 Ti RBW, which trudged in as a pre-model directly from the manufacturer here. Well, there was no final packaging yet and there was still some improvisation, but the product itself was final, if already used. And one thing I can [...]
Tom Clancy's The Division 2 was developed by Massive Entertainment and published by Ubisoft. It is the sequel to The Division, which saw the light of day three years earlier. Division 2 uses the Snowdrop engine and remains compatible with both DirectX 11 and DirectX 12, showing a preference for AMD hardware. Division 2 is available for Xbox [...]
I don't want to spoil the end result at the beginning, but if you first benchmark the predecessor Quadro P4000 as a direct comparison, only to then have to reach unplanned but curiously on the shelf and also to flatten a Quadro P5000 with it gallantly, then pinch two times in the forearm. Especially since you can get this smallest RTX-Quadro [...]
