The time has come, finally! After all the many (but very readable!) Theory presented in our basic article "Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti and RTX 2080 – what is really hidden behind Turing" from last week, it's almost finally getting to the bottom of today! Not only do we benchmark the two new Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 (Ti) FE, but [...]
After some board partners told us that the TU102 was late or was delivered too late to launch a real hard-launch on 20.09.2018, meanwhile also some pre-orders report reported delays or delays. notifications received from dealers. This fits perfectly into the already known picture, according to which there was speculation in advance about BIOS bugs [...]
Many board partners do it, and hardly any of the end users know how it really works. But everyone is talking about it. We are talking about GPU binning, i.e. the pre-selection and categorisation of GPUs of a model series according to different criteria. In this way, different clusters are created, figuratively speaking. The very good, less good [...]
With the GeForce RTX 2080 Gaming X Trio, MSI introduces its own new graphics card design. From the very beginning, MSI relies on a true custom design and its own cooler with three fans and the obligatory RGB effects. It is equipped with the TU104, has 8 GB of GDDR6 graphics memory and offers everything else we already know from the reference [...]
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 [...]
If you haven't lived at the foot of a cave for ten years, the "World of Warcraft" phenomenon has certainly not passed you by. Blizzard, the developer and publisher behind MMORPG, first released in 2004, has added new classes and story strands to the game's scope over the past few years. Millions of people around the world still [...]
With the DT 240 Pro, Beyerdynamic has been rounding down the headphone portfolio for several months now, although this small but rather inexpensive headphone is, in my view, mercilessly underestimated. The current street price of only 85 euros implies the unjust impression of a cheap Chinese purchase, but this is really wrong for the DT 240 Pro [...]
With the Spearhead VRX Gaming Headphone, 1More offers a gaming headset that is not actually a headset in the classic sense. In addition, Waves NX 3D is a well-functioning tracking solution that captures all movements of the head and implements them exactly in the audio image. But in addition to this in the test further details, exciting and rare [...]
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 [...]
So AMD did! Not only that the Threadripper 2 has also been granted the new Zen+ This, as we already find with the Ryzen 2700X and other models of this series, no, one also occupies all four possible places in one of the two models tested today. instead of two, the Ryzen Threadripper 2990 WX elegantly (and almost with a casual gesture from [...]
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 [...]
