The topic is plentiful complex and hot and ideally suited to provoke even neat emotions. I would therefore like to preface this article with a preliminary remark, which iamplease keep in mind during the reading. After all, I have thought for a long time whether and how what has accumulated here in my desk and in my head in recent years can be [...]
Minecraft is a long-running game and is also the best-selling game in the world with over 176 million copies sold on all platforms. While the game was released 10 years ago, it is still one of the five most popular games on PC. NVIDIA has worked with Mojang Studios and Microsoft to bring ray tracing, physical-based materials, and DLSS 2.0 to [...]
While it may have sunk a little, TSMC last month unveiled the world's largest chip-on-wafer-on-substrate (CoWoS) interposer. With a bandwidth of 2.7 TBps, this chip now offers almost three times the performance compared to the previous generation, which is quite remarkable. In times of corona hysteria, one might now think that production would [...]
The subject is almost as old as lignite and I have not only written an article about it in recent years. However, the feedback of those who are looking for help and would like to see everything clearly summarized and updated again is piling up again. Of course, I will not close myself off from this and restructure the whole issue and also revise [...]
Pretty much exactly 10 years ago, I not only played and benchmarked Metro 2033, but also examined the story behind it. Because I was not only once in Moscow and know the also Metro from my own excursions quite well. I was also able to find something new, because as a student and foreigner, in the days of the Soviet regime, one always had the [...]
The KFA2 RTX 2060 Super EX 1-Click OC also shows that RTX is also cheap, after Gainward wanted to prove this to us with the GeForce RTX 2060 Super Ghost. Today’s, currently approx. 439 Euro expensive card from KFA2, costs exactly 20 euros more than the version without EX, which in turn costs only exactly as much as Gainward’s current [...]
I had already written an article about the announcement of DLSS 2.0 at the end of March and Deep Learning. DLSS 2.0 has been very positive in all four games in which it is available. In contrast, the first implementation of Deep Learning Super Sampling weakened a little and rather shines with very mixed results. This then ranged from crisp to [...]
After Mark Cerny's highly technical, but also somewhat boring PS5 deep dive ("So never, Sony! Why the PS5's GDC presentation was actually a covert disaster") left many questions unanswered, especially after the PlayStation 5 system architect revealed that Sony's next-generation console will have ariable clock speeds based on [...]
Leaks are especially valuable when a board partner leaves things on their website that would have been better hidden. But that's exactly what happened on an AMD partner site, and the content found there is also some of the rumours from the head in relation to Big Navi. Because first of all there is the name: RX Gamma XT. My special thanks go [...]
Micron's latest earnings report also includes information that the company will soon begin production of High Bandwidth Memory (HBM2). Although it seems a little late for this, Micron's presence in the storage market is likely to leave a positive impression on the end customer. Micron announces that it is working with Samsung and SK Hynix [...]
Even if the GeForce GTX 1650 is pretty much down in the current pixel food chain and is unlikely to be the focus of ambitious players, the planned switch to GDDR6 is quite interesting. Because there is less reason for marketing. This card is not really under pressure in its segment and to push it closer to a super-superted GTX 1650 would actually [...]
Update from 26.03.2020 – 14:00 Did the hacker "palesa" possibly unmask himself? In a file, the name Manish Prashanth can be found in the code under the pseudonym "palesa". If you look curiously at LinkedIn, you will find a trained programmer of the same name: . Coincidence or stupidity? Thanks to Peter for pointing 🙂 [...]
Half-Life Alyx can also be played without a VR headset, according to einger sources, and the mouse and keyboard controls also seem to work quite well. The founder of Valve News Network, Tyler McVicker, recently discovered that Half-Life Alyx can be played without an annoying VR headset thanks to some hidden commands. He also managed to activate [...]
The part has already irritated me, if only because of the size, which should have been called small. Well, the Corsair One is completely custom loop, but here I don't have the Frickelei with the watered graphics card. On a footprint of just under 19 x 19 cm and a height of just under 39 cm, the H1 from NZXT is quite compact. In addition, there [...]
Since the launch, I have used the game for various benchmarks and have also played quite a bit myself, also in order to reach a useful benchmark scene. But the dear time often never lets you play to the end and so Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order has remained like many others in the benchmark suite, but never gets to your own computer. After many [...]
Many colleagues, including my long-time friend Usman Pirzada of Wccftech, whose sources are usually quite valid, have long speculated (also together in chat) whether the next generation of consoles can now be taken as a real benchmark for the RDNA2 architecture that AMD will then launch as a Radeon graphics card, or not. And one of Usman's [...]
Nvidia today introduces DLSS 2.0, which will bring many interesting changes, significant quality and performance improvements. Even if we only had the verbal information and the corresponding slides available to us for today, the path that Nvidia has taken can be traced quite well. Tests must prove to what extent these very serious changes then [...]
Almost 12 years ago I once published a small craft project, which now happens to have fallen into my fingers while cleaning up. Funnily enough, the Gnaze still works, because I also ripped out the old PC. Only the batteries of the controller I had to replace, the rest still ran amazingly as then.
Does anyone remember Palit's GTX 1550 Ti KalmX? I still had this card in the test for Tom's hardware at the time and the conclusion was rather mixed, because the card did not manage to survive even without any housing ventilation. The new GTX 1650 KalmX from Palit , I can spoil it before, manages this feat quite, albeit only in the second [...]
AMD has long seen itself as a strong proponent of next-generation graphics API technologies with low overhead such as Microsoft DirectX 12, which, for example, is take games to a whole new level. Now AMD is also saying that it will partner with Microsoft to offer full support for DirectX 12 Ultimate in the upcoming AMD RDNA 2 gaming architecture [...]
