Actually, everything looked so good when I recently started the big roundup of workstation graphics cards and also published the first part with all four new Radeon Pro graphics cards. The cards didn’t perform badly, on the contrary. But I already noted things during benchmarking back then that I definitely wanted to re-test. Especially [...]
Courage for the gap! Why nothing is sometimes more than normal and everything somehow needs its time
Actually, after almost 2 weeks of endless benchmarks and the first roundup of the new workstation graphics cards, I wanted to quickly cover the new Radeon Pro W7000 series as a separate article and draw a preliminary line before the next cards. So, the four new cards with beautiful, unique product images (which I’ve already done) and all the [...]
News from SIGGRAPH 2023: NVIDIA and leading manufacturers showcase powerful RTX workstations for the era of AI and digital creativity.These powerful computers are ideal companions for creating AI applications and digital artwork. BOXX, Dell Technologies, HP and Lenovo showcased their high-tech systems here, based on NVIDIA RTX 6000 Ada Generation [...]
AMD today announced two new professional graphics cards, the Radeon Pro W7600 and Radeon Pro W7500. Both cards are based on the new RDNA 3 architecture and offer a range of features that make them suitable for a variety of professional applications. AMD thus rounds off the product family at the bottom. A Radeon W7700 has not yet been colped [...]
It is reported that OpenAI is working with NVIDIA to assemble a significant number of AI GPUs for ChatGPT’s latest GPT-4 model. It is also reported that the companies are working together to secure 10 million AI GPUs from NVIDIA for the Advanced AI model. ChatGPT is currently using a large number of NVIDIA’s latest AI-focused GPUs and [...]
Since I like to measure everything that has just any plug (or socket) and also want to support my friend Aris in his work, I brought the latest PMD (Power Measurements Device) right from Taipei (along with something else that was then unfortunately less beautiful, but free). The first brand new Powenetics kits were already delivered to their happy [...]
Today I would like to give you some more information about what has been delayed for a while, the reasons are well known. At NVIDIA’s headquarters in Taipei, I had the opportunity to check out a few delicacies outside the current mainstream. It’s always interesting to see something like that, so I’m willing to take a longer cab [...]
Increasing demand for computing power and growing energy efficiency requirements have greatly influenced the development of data center technologies in recent years. AMD and 451 Research, a leading technology analysis and market research firm, have played a critical role in shaping and analyzing these developments. Of interest here are advances [...]
Take a Ryzen 7 7700X, piggyback some 3D V-cache and halve the power consumption of the Intel Core i9-13900K. The half Ryzen 9 7950X is ready, which now comes to the customer as Ryzen 7 7800X3D without the second die and can still usually act just as fast in gaming. It’s not squaring the circle, but it’s close. As long as you use [...]
Recent filings show that the Federal Trade Commission, or FTC, is having difficulty obtaining certain documents from Microsoft and Activision. The FTC is a U.S. federal agency responsible for enforcing consumer protection and antitrust laws.The FTC’s difficulties in connection with the Microsoft-Activision merger are particularly evident in [...]
Many paying customers of ChatGPT Plus have received a mail today informing them about a major data leak, the consequences of which are difficult to assess at the moment. This meant that (not only in account management) first and last names, the billing address, the credit card type, the expiration date of the credit card and the last four digits [...]
To accelerate enterprise adoption of generative AI, NVIDIA today unveiled a suite of cloud services that enable enterprises to develop, refine and deploy custom big language and generative AI models based on their own proprietary data and designed for their specific industry-specific tasks. Companies that will create and use AI models [...]
The NVIDIA H100 NVL GPU represents a high-performance graphics card designed specifically for demanding machine learning and artificial intelligence applications. This high-performance graphics processing unit was designed to efficiently handle large amounts of data while performing complex calculations. The NVIDIA Hopper GPU-based H100 NVL PCIe [...]
Sure, the title sounds lurid at first, but it actually contains everything that really characterized this review of the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D, because this is where a highly efficient and in many areas really extremely fast CPU meets smaller, self-imposed hurdles. This may sound more dramatic at first than it really is in the end, and it [...]
Let’s first look back: Intel’s nevertheless very successful HEDT line ended in 2019 with the Core X series, almost 3 years ago. Since then, the company has launched three complete generations of mobile and desktop CPUs, but completely ignored the HEDT platform. In the meantime, the Core desktop chips of the 13th generation offer a high [...]
AMD releases the new Zen 4 CPUs without X in the name today. Of course, I was able to test the CPUs in the form of the Ryzen 9 7900 and Ryzen 5 7600 in advance and also added the respective X models freshly. Even though these new CPUs might look rather unspectacular at first glance, the slightly lower price and higher efficiency could definitely [...]

With Raptor Lake, Intel now also ends the era of monolithic processors. This of course comes with another decent performance boost and it will be the purpose of this review to compare the new CPUs with AMD’s new Ryzen 7000 family. That is definitely worthwhile, because Intel would quite like to have the so-called gaming crown back. The [...]
AMD let us release tests of the four new Zen 4 CPUs today in the form of the Ryzen 9 7950X, Ryzen 9 7900X, Ryzen 7 7700X and Ryzen 5 7600X. We have already reported about it for a long time, but now the necessary test samples are finally materializing in the form of the real CPUs, which can provide answers to the many questions that have been [...]
