Normally, large graphics cards come onto the market in a considerable size. Usually with two or even three fans. With the family from the 4070 series, for example, there is also an option with one fan, but the part is still large. However, things are different at Zephyr, as they recently launched their new GeForce RTX 4070, which comes in an ITX [...]
In what is now the fifth part, I analyze the Raijintek Calore C360D, a radiator from the community that was kindly made available to me for the final pathological examination. The parts are inexpensive and unfortunately it is not known exactly which OEM is behind it. Magiccol, as it used to be, is not. And so my curiosity increases, because price [...]
If you want to store vast amounts of data quickly or simply load it quickly into your favorite game, you have a large selection of different hard drives. On the one hand, HHDs, which are less suitable for loading in, for example. But then there are SSDs, which are much better. But which SSD is best for you? Perhaps you can see for yourself with [...]
What do you think it means when Intel provides a document with the title “Title Enhanced Thermal Velocity Boost (eTVB) May Miscalculate Frequency Limits” and the subline “Issue Description An incorrect frequency limit calculation may allow the processor to operate at a high frequency state at a high temperature” [...]
SIGGRAPH 2024, taking place July 28 – August 1 in New Orleans, will welcome Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA, as the opening keynote speaker. Huang will speak about the profound impact of generative AI and accelerated computing on various industries, particularly manufacturing, design and entertainment, in his keynote titled “Graphics for [...]
We remember: Intel NUC (Next Unit of Computing) is a series of mini PCs that were first introduced by Intel in 2012. The idea behind the NUC was to offer powerful but compact computers that could be used in a variety of applications such as home entertainment systems, digital signage, small offices and even as servers. The first NUC was equipped [...]
The market for graphics cards is now gigantic and the choice is almost endless. One card follows the next and new ones are launched every year. For the end user, the choice is not easy. The title AI appears everywhere in the names of graphics cards, but ASRock has launched a new graphics card that is a little older and takes the potential buyer [...]
I quote without comment the current publication of the US government website on the embargo imposed today on other persons and organizations and I admit it, I am somewhat surprised. The impact this embargo will have on business in Europe cannot yet be predicted. As G7 leaders prepare to meet in Italy, the United States is today sanctioning more [...]
In new benchmarks, NVIDIA ‘s GeForce RTX 40 GPU series outperforms both laptop CPUs and dedicated NPUs in Llama and Mistral AI benchmarks. This performance boost is further optimized by NVIDIA’s TensorRT-LLM acceleration. NVIDIA’s TensorRT-LLM acceleration for Windows has thus significantly improved performance on Windows PCs [...]
First of all, I have to apologize a little, because in the end I also played Allen Wake 2 through to the end with growing enthusiasm. This may also have been due to the fact that patches and driver updates turned the performance from “Can it run Crysis?” to “Can you play it?”, even if the protagonists’ motor skills [...]
The world of Windows PCs and laptops is huge. But macOS is also very popular with some. The company Tuxedo, however, takes a different approach and offers Linux laptops. However, with CPUs from Intel and AMD, which demand a lot of performance and energy. Now, with the Qualcomm Snapdragon X processor, there is another alternative that can be used [...]
The Deepcool PL550D currently costs around 49 euros, making it the cheapest (almost) ATX v3.1 power supply on the market, even if it is advertised as ATX 3.0. This price would still be very low even for ATX power supplies of the previous generation. However, although the maximum output is limited to 550W, this device can withstand power peaks of [...]
The next generation of gaming: NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 50 “Blackwell” series is in the starting blocks, reports Kopite7kimi on X, and brings with it significant performance improvements over the current Ada generation. Based on the leaked information, we are now taking a cautious look at the technical specifications of the upcoming [...]
As my blog-style articles often generate a lot of interest and there are a lot of network nerds in our forum, I decided to take you on my little journey from 8-port switch to 19″ network cabinet. While Igor reported live from Taiwan on the occasion of the Computex trade fair and has to gather his thoughts after the fair, I’ll show you [...]
As Microsoft announced at its Xbox Games Showcase 2024, it will be launching a new series of consoles on the market, the so-called “Xbox Series X All-Digital Console”, which will be available to customers without a DVD drive. Is this really such a good idea? In the end, it will be the customer who will raise or lower their thumbs [...]
In exciting news for tech enthusiasts and overclockers, leaked benchmarks of the AMD Ryzen 5 9600X “Zen 5” desktop CPU show that the “small” chip can be operated with a decent overclock of 5.7 GHz on all six cores. This results in a performance boost of up to 14 percent compared to the already powerful Ryzen 5 7600X. [...]
It’s been a few moons since I’ve looked at a keyboard. This is mainly due to the fact that I generally value low-profile keyboards. Not in the sense of a Corsair K100 with a laptop-thin design, but in the sense of the well-known Sharkoon PureWriter RGB or the TKL version of the PureWriter. See the article from 2017: Sharkoon PureWriter [...]
Some time ago, we reported on the Microsoft Copilot PCs from Microsoft. We also told you about the new Recall function, which takes screenshots of your screen periodically (i.e. after a certain period of time), which are then stored in a kind of database. This should make it possible to ask the Copliot what you did 2 weeks ago or to find missing [...]
