What is actually the so-called metaverse? The metaverse is a shared 3D virtual world (or worlds) that are interactive, immersive, and collaboratively shareable. Just as the physical universe is a collection of real worlds connected in space, the metaverse can also be thought of as a collection of 3D virtual worlds. Massive online social games like [...]

Except for a recent announcement and a first launch, it has been very quiet around AMD’s Radeon Pro portfolio of professional workstations for quite some time, which also rely on certified drivers and ECC-RAM, because especially in the professional environment such standards have to be met. While NVIDIA has been left almost without a fight [...]
It was very quiet around AMD’s Radeon Pro portfolio of professional workstations for quite some time, which also rely on certified drivers and ECC-RAM, because especially in the professional environment such standards have to be met. While NVIDIA has been left almost without a fight for months, the three new graphics solutions presented [...]
Again Notebook Weeks at Igor’s Lab? Well, sort of yes and no, but I’ve now had the chance to at least take a longer inventory in direct comparison of two very similar notebooks, the one tested today containing the successor to the RTX 2080 Super Max-Q tested at the time. A notebook isn’t a desktop PC with a beast of a CPU and is [...]
Anyone who spends a lot of time in a home office knows the dilemma: one computer for work, one computer for private use, both with monitors and peripherals, but both somehow have to be on the same desk. Chaos ensues, ergonomics and productivity suffer. The remedy is a KVM switch. We’ll take a look at what that is and what an implementation [...]
Somehow by chance and rather unconsciously we arrived at the laptop-weeks, but the picture fits together nicely. Yesterday we tested an Apex 15 from XMG and thought about 6 possible CPUs (“A barebone against 6 CPUs – which Ryzen processor fits best in the XMG Apex 15?”). Today I will prove that in many creative and productive [...]
NVIDIA has recently introduced the GeForce RTX 30 series with an Ampere-based chip for home users, and is expected to launch its prosumer and workstation-oriented Quadro RTX graphics cards in the Ampere-based range soon. The NVIDIA Quadro RTX series started in 2018 with the Turing GPUs ahead of the consumer cards of the time and will soon move to [...]
After one year of Ryzen 3000 (“Matisse”), the replacement of the current Ryzen 5 3600X, Ryzen 7 3800X and Ryzen 9 3900X is approaching, by adding MTS2 (internal for “Matisse Refresh”), an improved XT replacement, which should make waiting for Ryzen 4000 (“Vermeer”) a little easier. And probably also a little bit [...]
Owning an Apple PC is usually quite an expensive affair and is usually celebrated almost religiously. But if you want to work with MacOS, perhaps to have an advantage over Windows PCs in one or the other application, or simply to be different, you don’t necessarily have to buy an Apple Mac Pro (2019). Fortunately there is the possibility to [...]
Update from 14.08.2023 Here is a newer review: Roundup 2023 of current workstation graphics cards from AMD and NVIDIA – How does the Radeon Pro W7000 series fare against Ada and Ampere? Update from 03.06.2020 Further benchmarks have been added, especially considering hardware acceleration (AI, rendering). In addition, the layout of the [...]
After I could finally put the Workstation Graphics Card Charts 2020 online with far more than 200 hours of pure testing time, I now have to work on the rest, which, I honestly admit, I always put off a bit. Because the boundaries between what you can consider a classic workstation scenario and what is so beautifully called Creation are becoming [...]
But I live in the here and now and there it has become (as so often) a bit tight with time, but of course something will be finished. Actually, there was a little bit more planned, but there was the sampling god and a more complex motherboard conversion planned, which almost cost me an extra day. Since it’s not a sponsored sample, it will be [...]
After the launch of the current Navi-Consumer and Workstation graphics cards, the Radeon VII has long been quiet in the Radeon VII, but now the Radeon Pro VII is a new edition for the professional sector. It is aimed primarily at broadcast and technology professionals and targets demanding broadcast and media projects, complex CAE simulations [...]
After 10 workstation graphics cards tested, I prepared a whopping 64 different chart graphics and invested almost 200 hours of pure benchmark time without assemling and software configuration. Of course, various cards are still missing, especially since AMD unfortunately does not show too much zeal in the sampling. I also have models in the test [...]
Everybody can cool with air and honestly: the adrenaline rush when you take apart and rebuild a card that costs several thousand euros is not to be despised. But the basic idea behind the whole water action is actually quite simple. How much more clocks and thus also performance can be squeezed out of a Quadro RTX 6000 by the better cooling alone [...]
