New Baby-Turing, New Opportunity? AMD is putting pressure on low Polaris prices and Nvidia is following in the way. Performance-wise and - you will rub your eyes - also at the price. How quickly the GeForce GTX 1060 could get into disarray must (and will) show in this test. So it's really exciting...
Important preliminary remarks I admit that motherboard tests are complex and often ungrateful for the tester, because the readership remains quite manageable, as long as it is, for example, an enthusiast platform like the Socket 2066. Nevertheless, I find it very exciting to observe what would be possible and also if you as a manufacturer make a [...]
The country needs new benchmarks! Various games in several resolutions with the emphasis on gain by subvolts or an OC with a converted Radeon VII. We evaluate everything: Frame-Times. Percentile, variances, the smoothness of the gradient and much more than bar and curve charts as an overview or individual evaluation. There is nothing more to do [...]
The Hall of Fame (HoF for short) has been the spearhead of the individual performance classes at KFA2 (Galax) for years. It is easy to argue about design and not being, but white cards are rare and are highly sought after because it is hard to get anywhere else. The manufacturer also offers with this card a lot of features, which can only be found [...]
You have to look at it completely without emotion and interest, but in the end many building blocks combine to form a very conspicuous and above all rather unattractive picture. A little stocktaking with some background information I couldn't resist so close to the weekend...
The RTG (Radeon Tweaker Group) is a group of those who have already made it their mission since AMD's Polaris and later Also Vega to make some overvoltage and unnecessarily hot Radeon what one would like as an end customer: to a faster and significantly more efficient Graphics card.
New revision, new happiness? Let's see what Alphacool made of the ice block GPX, because there is now a new model M02, which is compatible with both the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, RTX 2080, and the RTX 2070. Today's test has to show how well all this performs and where you can classify the cooler in direct comparison to your competitors. In my [...]
Corsair upgrades its Dominator series with the Dominator Platinum RGB DDR4 3600 (and other clock rates) technically and visually again, so that a test seemed quite convenient to me to question it. What all this then brings in practice must be proven by the test scenario, which is deliberately designed in a practical way, because all synthetic [...]
Yes, I did it: Purely out of curiosity, cut a complete review of a graphics card as a video. Well, as a double burden, of course, such a thing does not last in the long run, but the learning factor is of course extremely high. The prices for all possible cards are currently in free fall and so it offers a (retrospective) review of this middle [...]
Metro Exodus is THE hotly anticipated game thanks to the support of Nvidia's ray tracing and DLSS features. Today's first look at performance focuses specifically on the impact of these two features, for the details with all the maps I intentionally took more time, because it's worth looking at twice. But this first part says a lot and [...]
If you want to do something new and right, then the effort in the preparation is often enough more than just immense. But analyses of heat generation on and the cooling performance of motherboards are to become one of our unique selling points for the upcoming reviews. How something like that can crash the weekend, I'll show you today.
We have learned that Micron intends to launch its brand new Octa Level (OLC) NAND either in the first quarter or at the latest in the second quarter of 2019, i.e. in the first half of the year! What would be so exciting about it? If Micron's Octa-Level OLC NAND memory is really available so soon, it would significantly exceed the speed of [...]
Monopoly is hollow. Such a one-sided skew ness in the graphics card market has never brought any real benefits and currently the enthusiasts among the players in particular are suffering from quite high prices for fast hardware. With the new Turing cards, Nvidia has shown very impressively what to get when standing alone in the corridor. The [...]
Strongly scuttled launches have unfortunately become very fashionable in the meantime, so that we also have to present our deep red launch salami in several steps. One is the other's joy, and so AMD fuels the anticipation a little more. So for the time being we only pull off the pelle from the salami and cut it carefully. There are also two [...]
The reason for my heckling today is actually trivial, but it also shows that AMD is doing everything it can to maintain strict secrecy of technical details even to board partners. Now, of course, I can't spoil or leak anything before the launch of the Radeon 7, but a few small glimpses of his then allowed me...
Of course I can't reveal anything yet, but squeaky-colored pixel food for the 7 vegans isn't. Well, at least not directly. And you don't show what you're allowed to show. Where... Of course, a little bit always goes. The video for the first impression is available here!
Yes, you get annoyed (and wonder) when AMD has been announcing technology and solutions for mobile devices for years and you have to look for them every time you trade the magnifying glass. If you find anything at all. My colleague Usman Pirzada from wccftech.com has investigated this very question and can confirm with further details exactly what [...]
Normally I don't leave an outsider in the office and the lab, because in the end it doesn't concern anything that goes down here in detail. Testing the MSI RTX 2080 Ti Lightning Z is certainly a much more complex thing than you can film in a simplified way. But I'll take you with me today, because who hasn't always wanted to take a [...]
Anyone who still remembers my article about the connections between graphics card, headphone sensitivity and motherboard layout will of course also wonder how I measure all this and what technology is behind it. Since we have no secrets and the response was also very large, Frank Schmidt ("Bigreval" in the forum) and I thought about how [...]
That I would sit in front of the camera again and make one on influencer, well, a year ago that would have been unimaginable. But what must, that must and if everyone screams for it, then it is just the same now. In the absence of a teleprompter, this is all of course unfamiliar standup comedy and you have, especially with the cardboard and the [...]
