Already at the launch of NVIDIA’s Ampere graphics cards, this feature was the talk of the town and subsequently on the wish list of those who want to move large amounts of data directly and without the tedious detour via the CPU. The DirectStorage function was promised for Windows 10, but is now only available from version 11. In the [...]
I recently introduced you to the hardware brokers and published some internal prices of the “grey” market. Because we now also know where the stocks come from, when for example even the official distributors of the graphics card manufacturers wave off and lie dry. Because, as we now know, there is a kind of parallel universe of the [...]
Intel had unveiled one of the world’s biggest chips not too long ago and the picture that emerges after all the releases so far is quite overwhelming. Intel’s Xe HPC 2-Tile (PVC) GPU uses a mix of Intel’s 7nm, Intel’s 10nm ESF and TSMC’s 7nm (or 5nm) process technology for this, which is brought together in Foveros 3D [...]
Sometimes it’s the really small things that fail and even such a small, quite unknown cog in the gearbox can stop a whole machine in its tracks. The chip shortage is not a new topic, but now the whole notebook manufacturers are threatened by new trouble from a quite unexpected corner. Intel had not only launched a new notebook CPU with Tiger [...]
"Hope you enjoyed all the new technologies we announced at #computex 2021. We are so proud of our @AMD Ryzen desktop APUs, @Radeon mobile GPUs, FidelityFX Super Resolution, and our brand new 3D chiplet technology – the best in high-performance computing!!!" (Dr. Lisa Su on Twitter)
The next generation of Zen 4-based Ryzen desktop CPUs will be codenamed Raphael and will replace the Zen 3-based Ryzen 5000 desktop CPUs, which are codenamed Vermeer. According to the information currently available, the Raphael CPUs will be based on the 5nm Zen 4 core architecture and feature 6nm I/O dies in a chiplet design. After all, AMD had [...]
Having assembled quite a few PCs already, I’ve always wanted to build a mini-I-X system for everyday use. So it came as a call that my work colleague asked me for a new PC, well, the help to build him something tailor-made. After a short information gathering regarding the application of the PC as well as the budget, it was only a few mouse [...]
Intel announced earlier this week that it had reached a key milestone in the development of its next-generation Meteor Lake 7nm CPUs. The company let it be known on Twitter that the line-in of the compute tile of Meteor Lake CPUs was successful. The milestone of sorts was proudly announced by Intel’s Executive Vice President and GM of the [...]

Meanwhile, more details on AMD’s upcoming AM5 desktop platform supporting future Ryzen CPUs and APUs have been released by leaker ExecutableFix. The AMD AM5 platform will compete directly with Intel’s new 600 platform, as both will be the first platforms to also offer consumer DDR5 memory support. According to this leak, the next [...]
Today we build ourselves a notebook! Well, I don’t want to exaggerate, but that’s the beauty of such a barebone: you can actually put in what you would like to have (or think you have to have). Based on the Clevo X170KM-G, that’s no secret, I simply assembled the XMG Ultra 17 myself once, and again, there’s not a dry eye in [...]
Since the author Yuri Bubliy (1usmus) has already set his software tool CTR EOL after the release of the successor “Project Hydra” and also does not offer any further suport, we have also removed the content from the website and link instead to the new, more comprehensive program, which offers full replacement and is also further [...]
Intel had already announced the Xe (a.k.a. Gen12) graphics architecture in 2020, and step by step it was also concretized. The portfolio here ranges from integrated ultrabook chips and dedicated cards to genuine workstation and server cards. The one I want to show you today is factually currently at the top end of Intel’s graphics food chain [...]
There is some movement in the leaker scene again and so it is not surprising that also various information about AMD’s next GPU leaks out. So now we could also enjoy new details about AMD’s next APU lineup, the Ryzen 6000 “Rembrandt”, published by ExecutableFix, a reputable leaker. In fact, according to his latest tweet, it [...]

We already know since my launch article “Intel Core i9-11900K, Core i7-11700K, Core i5-11600K and Core i9-10900K against Zen3 – Last man standing in silicon” that Intel’s 11th generation doesn’t act particularly squeamish at the power supply. But also not detailed enough, because there was one thing I couldn’t [...]
At the moment the last series of measurements for this very complex article are still in progress, which I will be able to present to you tomorrow (and which I have completely underestimated in terms of scope). Because that Intel’s 11. We already know since my launch article “Intel Core i9-11900K, Core i7-11700K, Core i5-11600K and [...]
The lack of things never ceases. Products that come from TSMC, such as GPUs and CPUs from AMD, have been in plenty of short supply for some time now (with a few exceptions). Intel CPUs manufactured in their own foundries were quite available from launch (at least some models) and CPU prices were actually also pleasingly affordable. My colleague [...]
Meanwhile, more and more specifications for AMD’s Ryzen 5000G Cezanne ‘Zen 3’ desktop APUs have also leaked out and a total of three upcoming models seem to be confirmed in the process. The AMD Ryzen 5000G family will be the direct replacement for the Zen 2.based Ryzen 4000G Renoir family, which was introduced last year for the [...]
Intel’s new 11th generation CPUs have been available for purchase for a few weeks now, albeit only recently officially. And so I also got hold of an i7 11700K and took a look at what innovations we can expect with the new generation, especially with regard to RAM tuning and overclocking. Unfortunately, I couldn’t present any reliable [...]
