Nvidia Turing Deep-Dive: Welcome to the Ray Tracing Revolution Let's take a positive view of it, it will work later (for the most part) as it was proudly presented to the astonished attendees at Siggraph and Gamescom 2018. Then Turing can be seen as Nvidia's biggest architectural leap in more than 10 years. To achieve all of this, the [...]
GlobalFoundries has now announced, somewhat surprisingly, that it intends to put the 7 nm process on hold indefinitely. The chip maker is again concentrating on the processes in 14/12 nm and promises to further perfect them. The company also stated that the majority of chip designers ultimately did not invest in the (expensive and therefore more [...]
Update from 30.08.2018 – 17:00 o'clock Since no one could foresee the momentum of the criticism and discussions (really not?), the criticized "Just Buy It!" -Article by the US colleague in the media, I have to speak again at this point. This is also because even this opinion has now gone extremely viral, which was not intended [...]
We still have to live with what Nvidia told us during Editors Day, because unfortunately I don't have my own benchmarks yet. But at least Nvidia presented a certainly interesting slide, which has to be interpreted precisely and without emotion. Nvidia tests all applications with 3840 x 2160 pixels, i.e. in Ultra HD and with an unspecified [...]
What Nvidia has released so far, I have put for you directly here on the server for scrolling through and afterpage. In addition to the well-known features, other RTF-specific functions are added. But always beautiful in turn… For example, Nvidia announced the introduction of Ansel RTX in its GeForce Experience software at Gamescom 2018 [...]
Will the wait for Nvidia's new generation of graphics cards come to an end soon? NVIDIA launches on Monday, 20 May. The GeForce Gaming Celebration will be announced at 6p on August 8, which almost certainly suggests a live presentation of the new gaming cards. So we can be curious. After the new Quadro cards of the RTX series and their [...]
Normally, Nvidia has always provided the in-house reference models for several generations now. the Founders Edition at the centre of the respective launches, while the on-board partner cards (usually as mockup or pre-series products) were only allowed to follow at least visually weeks later. This time, this is supposed to be completely different [...]
After the performance, of course, I also had time to visit the famous Q&A rounds, in which you sometimes also learn details that are missing in the actual events, for whatever reason. From left to right, Bob Pette (Vice President Professional Vizualisation), Tony Tamasi (Senior Vice President of Content and Technology), and Bob Sherbin (Vice [...]
So far, there is no trace of messegewusel. With the exception of a few floor cleaning and door-knocking agents, so far only monitors with announcements, locked corridors and security guards are a sign of a little launch feeling. The whole thing is hard to beat in secrecy and I can't remember ever making such a show around a Quadro graphics [...]
Graphics card prices have returned to a much normal after the mining boom over the past few months. This means a wide range of model availability at extremely attractive prices with immediate availability. One of these offers has recently also been offered by Caseking: The SAPPHIRE Nitro+ Radeon RX Vega 56 is available for an unbeatable 469,- Euro [...]
Take a chip that isn't quite as baptismal and think about which new product line you can establish and what added value you could generate for the end customer. The latter, of course, first of all from the point of view of marketing, because you have to establish the new product line somehow on the market. The older Gaming-X models are no [...]
Nvidia's CEO Jen-Hsun "Jensen" Huang is not an official speaker at Siggraph 2018 in Vancouver (12.08. 16.08.2018), but obviously always good for a surprise. For example, an event is scheduled for 13.08.2018 at 4 p.m. local time, which he himself will moderate. The live stream is already registered on Youtube and anyone who has some [...]
The MSI RX 580 Gaming X with 8 GB is hard to get and if so, then at exorbitantly high prices beyond the 380 euros as a kind of residual item. The significantly slimmed-down Armor X is cheaper as a variant with 8 GB of memory expansion over 100 euros, but also easier to knit in terms of cooling and design. Of course, the Gaming X could have been [...]
If you write rather flapsily, with the RX Vega everything would be a little different, then you are not even so wrong. In addition to the interesting technology around the interposer and the HBM2 memory used, there are of course also new technological challenges in the way, which I already mentioned last year in my article "Confusion around [...]
Let's say Nvidia would launch a new (preliminary) top-of-the-line model in the foreseeable future (which is probably as certain as the Amen in the church) – what would this card be worth to you? Or rather, to what extent would you be willing to go along without the threat of violence? Of course, we don't know the exact specs of this [...]
Our French colleague Yannick Guerrini contributed a large part of the content in today's test and, as we are all on the same wavelength and also want to expand our strategic partnership in Europe, there will certainly be many more articles in the future. developed in close cooperation. I would like to put this ahead of the test, because we [...]
The test system In our article "White and Fast: KFA2 Hall Of Fame Extreme DDR4-4000 in Test" we have already seen that the Core i7-8700K and the Ryzen 7 2700X benefit from an increase in memory frequency and also offer increased CPU and game performance. However, we also wanted to know whether this also applies to a Ryzen APU and its [...]
Like the Gigabyte RX Vega 56 Gaming OC , the Sapphire RX Vega 56 Pulse is more of a rational card, but equipped with completely different genes. Because in addition to the ultra-short board, we also find a very remarkable cooler here, which will be discussed later. Vapor-Chamber? That is precisely what does not exist this time. But interestingly [...]
There should be a graphics card review at this point, but it doesn't. Sure, you could have published it and pretended you didn't notice anything. Just like all those who had already tested this graphics card in rotation before me, this does not bring any further in the end. Not the reader, because he has to feel slickly awkward, not the [...]
At first glance, we don't have it easy as a (ab)writing guild. The World Cup drags itself away and becomes a nonchalant lyrise event, the beloved, media summer hole is now as big as Lake Constance, the nerves lie bare everywhere and so many people are after the holiday. The consequences of this info-nothing(it) are clearly defined: one falls [...]
