It looks like AMD may be switching from using fish names for its products to using crystalline rock names. A shipping label recently posted by well-known hardware leaker Harukaze5179 suggests that AMD is using the new codename “Cuarzo” for its existing Navi 3X GPUs. According to [...]

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 SUPER GPUs are expected to use an extremely fast memory solution with pin speeds of 23 Gbps, as new specifications have been published that indicate exactly that. You can read the rest here, including the RTX 4090 Super, which will unfortunately remain a pipe dream for the [...]
I had already written a very similar article almost a year ago about the binning of the GeForce RTX 4070 and the difference between MSRP and OC cards. However, the theoretical part on the second page was somewhat neglected, very wrongly in my opinion. The launch of the super cards is coming up soon [...]
It is still unclear whether there will be a Founders Edition model for each of the three NVIDIA RTX 40 SUPER graphics cards. What can be confirmed, however, is that the board partners (AIC) are already working on developing their individual designs to be showcased on these GPUs. As expected, each [...]
Three new graphics cards based on the RDNA 3 GPU architecture have been discovered in the EEC (Eurasian Economic Commission) database: the Radeon RX 7800, RX 7700 and the RX 7600 XT. The entries come from a relatively small AIB based in the Asia-Pacific region called ARKTEK. However, ARKTEK does [...]
Today I’m taking a look at the “new” second monitor from Wellenbrecher. Some of you may have noticed that Wellenbrecher is a “lucky guy” when it comes to buying monitors. He bought the MSI Optix MAG274QRX four times and still ended up with a monitor with pixel errors [...]
Bluesky Frame Converter is an application that uses Windows DirectShow filters to convert video frame rates as needed. Frame converters are widely used in the media industry and are mainly used to adjust video frame rates so that they are compatible with different display or transmission standards [...]
So anyone who really believes that everything used to be cheaper is very much mistaken. Just compare salaries and prices! Computers are a luxury good. And gold-plated accessories are as old as the PC price list. But who am I telling? If you browse through yesterday’s advertisements today, it [...]
The upcoming version of HWiNFO has only two highlights, both of which focus on preliminary support for Intel’s next-gen GPU products. It was recently confirmed that Intel will launch its Battlemage GPUs in 2024, and now the first support for these next-gen chips has been added to HWiNFO. The [...]
Over a year ago, Intel introduced its first GPUs based on the Xe “Alchemist” core architecture. The first GPUs were introduced with the Arc A380 and gradually saw the release of higher level products such as the A770, A750 and the latest A750. The GPU architecture has also been adopted [...]
Earlier this month, it was reported that NVIDIA was on track to launch its GeForce RTX 4090 D GPU in the near future. This product is officially designed as a China-exclusive variant to counteract the export restrictions imposed on the RTX 4090 and should not be released until next year. However, a [...]
Today’s monitor was not sent to me by the manufacturer, as is usually the case. I bought it myself, but I’m going to be harsh on Samsung and AMD at one point or another. I can already say that in advance. The Samsung Odyssey OLED G8 is one of a total of four QD OLED monitors on the [...]
It seems like someone at European retailer ProShop is either too excited or got confused with the upcoming launch of the GeForce RTX 40 “SUPER”, as they have renamed all of their RTX 4090 offerings to RTX 4090 SUPER. The retailer offers several graphics cards, 24 variants in total, and [...]
Since AMD started offering its APUs with powerful integrated graphics, Intel has gradually lost its lead in the iGPU space. The Vega iGPU family had already cemented AMD’s grip on the market at the time, and with RDNA, the red team entered a whole new world of devices that provided mini PCs [...]
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 16 series is the last vestige of the pre-RTX era, when all GPUs were marketed under the “GTX” series. It’s been more than a year since we’ve seen a new graphics card in this series and that was also a low-end design, namely the GeForce GTX 1630. But [...]
Intel has taken a significant step in its development with the new “Meteor Lake” CPU platform, marketed as “Core Ultra”. These processors are the first from Intel to use the “Intel 4” process, which is based on EUV lithography, and the first Intel client CPUs [...]
I don’t know how long it’s actually been since MSI announced this monitor. After what feels like an eternity, the time has finally come – the MSI MEG342C QD-OLED is on my playing field. A 34-inch ultrawide monitor with a maximum resolution of 3440 x 1440p and a refresh rate of 175 [...]
AMD and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora had a special relationship, as Team Red had previously worked with Ubisoft to develop specially designed graphics cards in conjunction with the game. In addition, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora was one of the first titles to support AMD’s new FSR 3 upscaling [...]
The patch 2.1 for Cyberpunk 2077 brings a lot of new features, but unfortunately also some problems. And before I go into the new features, we also need to look at the hurdles that stand in the way of a new user experience. Since its release, Cyberpunk 2077 has emerged as a platform for [...]
René and I have known each other for almost two decades and it was bound to happen at some point. Because while I was constantly stopping myself from picking up everything, he made it his goal in life. And that’s how his impressive collection of computer games came about, which was even [...]
Where do current workstation graphics cards from both manufacturers stand when it comes to design, construction, simulation, 3D visualization and creation? Has AMD been able to catch up or even overtake with the new lineup of Radeon Pro graphics cards or are Ada and Ampere still the measure of all [...]
According to the latest information, NVIDIA’s upcoming GPU architecture will be named Vera Rubin. Vera Rubin was an American astronomer who made significant contributions to the understanding of dark matter in the universe while pioneering work on the rotation rate of galaxies. Her findings [...]
According to Quasar Zone, this is a “crazy idea”, but nevertheless they have managed to successfully combine NVIDIA’s DLSS 3 Frame Gen and AMD’s Fluid Motion Frames technologies. Although the process wasn’t straightforward, it’s pleasing to see that these two [...]
In the third quarter of 2023, the research company Omdia gained detailed insights into Team Green’s activities and discovered astonishing results. NVIDIA sold an almost unbelievable “half a million” AI GPUs in the quarter, mainly consisting of the Hopper H100 and the Ampere A100 [...]
After numerous articles, explanations, and follow-up tests, today we’re taking a different approach. I have three intriguing topics for you: the possible origin story of the 12VHPWR connector, the deliberate ignorance of the originally intended 8-pin EPS connector, which continues to prove [...]
