According to current rumors, NVIDIA is allegedly already preparing the launch of the GeForce RTX 40 SUPER GPU series. These rumors also suggest that the series will only include three different graphics cards: the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER, RTX 4070 Ti SUPER and RTX 4070 SUPER. The information comes from @hongxing2020, a well-known leaker who [...]
We recently reviewed Lian Li’s visually quite plain, but very powerful Trinity Performance complete water cooler, and now the significantly flashier alternative has to prove itself. A small screen in the system is not to everyone’s taste, but is a good cooler hidden behind the pixels? Here you can catch up on the last review of a Lian [...]
AMD has withdrawn support for Anti-Lag in all supported games due to reports of incidents and bans caused by anti-cheat software and game crashes. In their latest driver, Adrenalin 23.10.2, the Anti-Lag feature has been disabled. It was confirmed that Anti-Lag was the main reason for lockups in popular eSports titles like Counter-Strike 2. Other [...]
Much helps much, my grandma used to say. And before you throw something away, it’s better to make something new out of it. So say my grandma and Intel. After Raptor Lake is before Arrow Lake, and so the Raptor refresh comes almost exactly one year later. Says Intel and my grandma is silent. And so, in addition to a bit more clock, at least [...]
Intel and Submer have collaborated to formulate an innovative development in single-phase immersion cooling technology that provides optimal heat dissipation for CPUs up to 1000W. Submer specializes in providing data center solutions worldwide and is engaged in managing cooling solutions for various applications such as HPC, hyperscale, data [...]
Unboxing is actually relatively uncool and also the main or secondary occupation of self-proclaimed influencers. So this is something that usually offers you no nutritional value, not even our readers who finally (and only) want to see facts. But of course I use this opportunity anyway, also to remind you that normally exactly one day after such [...]
Lisa Su, CEO of AMD, has reportedly left her position on the board of Cisco and Analog Devices. The reason for her resignation is not known, but it is believed to be related to AMD’s strategy toward the networking and data center industry. Su had been a member of Cisco’s board since 2019 and a member of Analog Devices’ board [...]
Today we have a quick and painless review of a mini-PC that is based on a rather unspectacular CPU, but is still worth a look. We have already published the benchmarks of one processor each, both one class below and above, so there are no big surprises today. Or are there? You can read the respective articles again here: Packaging and scope of [...]
It’s the weekend, and I naturally have a lot to prepare for next week. However, I don’t want to leave you all alone on the side, so today I’ll show you what a “laser drilling” of 16 “laser shots” looks like with the LIBS equipment in the form of the VHX-7000 by Keyence. The object of my curiosity today is [...]
Is Intel possibly planning an update of its Arc Alchemist GPUs? For example, new PCI IDs were recently added to the current Linux driver, which could well indicate a future update. The current lineup includes five products: Arc A770, Arc A750, Arc A580, Arc A380 and Arc A310. All of these GPUs use the Alchemist GPU architecture (ACM-G10 / ACM-G11 [...]
I think that if you’re even a little bit involved with 3D printing, there’s no way around some of the manufacturers. In the past, Creality and Prusa were clearly the sole top dogs, but they are no longer alone there. Thereis a lot to say aboutthe P1S and Bambu Lab ,so let’s start right away and put some more pressure on them [...]
Firstly, I’d like to congratulate our freelance colleague, Pascal Mouchel, on his new full-time position at Alphacool International! Especially in such turbulent times as these, for those who don’t want to just relax in the social safety net, there’s something very important to appreciate: a position in a stable company with [...]
A call for help from friends, a budget GPU is needed! Thanks to good experiences and with efficiency in mind, I recommended the RX 6600 with a clear conscience, but I didn’t count on Intel, because a B560 motherboard and a Rdeon RX 6600 are obviously not an ideal pair. Super-Susi rushed to the rescue and then saved the day among friends [...]
AMD recently introduced the Ryzen 3 7440U “Phoenix” APU, the only Zen 4 quad-core chip released so far. The first benchmarks of the processor have now surfaced on Geekbench and show quite promising results. The Ryzen 3 7440U is the entry-level Phoenix APU in the Ryzen 7040 stack and features 4 Zen 4 cores, 8 threads, a base clock of 3 [...]
AMD has announced that it will acquire the open-source Kannadian AI platform Nod.ai. With this acquisition, AMD aims to strengthen its AI software resources and drive developments in this area. AMD’s recent acquisitions of startups indicate that the company has increased intentions to enter the AI industry. It is widely known that AMD and [...]
I don’t think it’s any secret that Corsair’s lineup often doesn’t intersect with what’s commonly referred to as “budget” or “entry-level.” However, more and more manufacturers want to pick up this part of the clientele and the word “core” is seen more and more often in product names [...]
Even though the predecessor was not tested by us, we will not miss the newest member of the “Pure Loop” series. The manufacturer promises a better control via PWM of the decoupled pump and equips this complete water cooling with the new Pure Wings 3 high-speed fans. Packaging and scope of delivery The mostly black cardboard box already [...]
AMD has added a useful feature called “System Lag” in its latest driver that allows latency monitoring in games that support Anti-Lag technology. Radeon RX 7000 GPU owners can use this feature to determine their PC’s system lag, especially when Anti-Lag is enabled. Similar to NVIDIA’s PCL feature in the FrameView [...]
Windows 12 rumors have gained momentum in the industry. Now, a senior Intel executive has hinted that the new operating system may appear in 2024. David Zinser, Intel’s chief financial officer, said in an interview at the Citi 2023 Global Technology Conference that the coming year would be “particularly exciting,” especially for [...]
