PowerColor’s new factory certainly has the charm of a somewhat unusual test environment, because the one production line installed so far looks more like a small series and test run area. So it’s more like the highly qualified Maggi cooking studio for graphics cards, only with [...]

Finally – an OLED monitor in 16:9 format. LG sent me the UltraGear 27GR95QE-B for testing. In addition to the well-known Ultrawide OLED options, you can now also rely on an eSports-ready format with an OLED panel. The LG 27GR95QE comes with the familiar RWBG subpixel layout and a resolution [...]
Today I would like to give you some more information about what has been delayed for a while, the reasons are well known. At NVIDIA’s headquarters in Taipei, I had the opportunity to check out a few delicacies outside the current mainstream. It’s always interesting to see something like [...]
NVIDIA’s RTX 3070 GPU has been introduced in several variants, but the official memory configuration is limited to 8 GB GDDR6. Interestingly, it is possible to modify the card to support double the amount of memory expansion relatively easily. However, this requires custom modifications, as [...]
After four years of forced isolation, Computex is bursting at the seams this time. We haven’t seen each other for so long, and everyone wants to talk about the past years as extensively as possible. This can be quite exhausting, because I had 15 appointments yesterday, which I could work off [...]
As is already known, AMD’s reference design (MBA – Made by AMD) has some problems regarding the connection of the power supply cables. It turned out that due to the design of the cooler cover, certain 6+2-pin cables cannot be fully inserted into the board. This problem only affects [...]
So, today we have part two of the graphics card festivals and this time it is AMD’s turn. Today’s question: What is small, cuddly and performs almost as well as a GeForce RTX 3060 12 GB? It is AMD’s latest Navi33 scion. The child is called Radeon RX 7600 8 GB, lands in Full HD [...]
Of course, you can argue about the sense or nonsense of the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti as such, but the board manufacturers just have to go through with it now. MSI’s GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Gaming X Trio is a cooling hulk with a cooler that apparently weighs more than all memory modules of this series [...]
The Palit GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Dual OC 8GB is the exact opposite of the heavyweight competitor from MSI. Palit has trimmed all superfluous pounds and offers full OC capabilities already at the MSRP. Whether and how one can live with that will have to be seen in a later individual test. The card is [...]
A problem shared is a problem halved? Not at all, because the unique launch marathon starts today, where NVIDIA and AMD want to steal each other’s thunder! And if all that wasn’t enough, only the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti as Founders Edition or MSRP card without OC is available today. And [...]
NVIDIA officially unveiled its mid-range RTX 40 graphics card lineup today, which consists of three different models, although it’s not a real launch with benchmarks and unboxing yet. Of particular note here, however, is the RTX 4060 Ti, which will launch in two variants with 8 GB for an MSRP [...]
I didn’t really want to believe it at first, but after receiving feedback in the double digits, I combined what was pleasant for the customer with what was interesting for me. I analyze and repair the card at my risk, so that the buyer gets a working card back in any case and I am at least [...]
The rumors surrounding AMD’s RX 7600 graphics card are piling up, and with the GPU reportedly less than two weeks away from launch, some retailer prices have now been spotted as well. According to a report from VideoCardz and citing sources from Cowcotland, a French tech website, custom [...]
There have been rumors about NVIDIA’s plans to officially unveil the GeForce RTX 4060 graphics cards in May for some time now. However, it was unclear exactly when until now. According to a trusted source referenced by VideoCardz, NVIDIA is now said to intend for board partners (AIC) to start [...]
With the Gainward RTX 1660 Super (Susi), I am once again rescuing a graphics card that I had already tested extensively almost four years ago and that has also been in almost daily use since then. This ranges as a career ladder from the office to the recording PC (OBS) and the gaming use in the PC [...]
In our own blog post “Experience maximum ray tracing performance with AMD FSR 2 and the new AMD Radeon RX 7900 Series graphics cards“, the red team presents the benefits that are expected to result from enabling FSR 2 in various ray tracing games. Thanks to its open structure and [...]
Actually, a more detailed game review was supposed to be published here today, but I decided against it in the end. Because even though I had already invested several hours, I cannot justify pretending that everything runs so smoothly that it can be objectively benchmarked and evaluated. As this [...]
I have combined the download sections into one page and instead link to the older articles with the tutorials in the software table. The download as such is only available on this page in a summarised form. Preliminary note and introduction Since AMD massively restricted the use of the [...]
Paulo Gomes, the YouTuber and graphics card modder, has once again demonstrated his skills by upgrading a graphics card, in this case the AMD Power Color Radeon RX 5600 XT Red Dragon, with more video memory. He has increased the capacity of the card from the original 6GB to 12GB by installing [...]
So far, AMD has only unveiled two graphics cards based on RDNA 3 that are aimed at demanding enthusiasts with deeper pockets. Although it is obvious that AMD plans to add more models to its Radeon RX 7000 series, it remains unclear exactly which ones and when they will appear. However, a recently [...]
Despite all the features like higher power limit, 3-fan design and ARGB, the KFA2 GeForce RTX 4070 EX Gamer (outside EU sold as Galax) belongs to the inexpensive models of the GeForce RTX 4070 series, which are now also sold well below the MSRP. So good, so exciting. Because the current street [...]
I noticed especially in the so-called MSRP cards of NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 4070 that NVIDIA still does intensive binning and here two quality gradations (“buckets”) are again quite restrictive selected in bin 0 (worse) and bin 1 (better). We still know this from the so-called [...]
For the Sapphire Nitro+ Radeon RX 7900 XTX Vapor-X 24 GB, Sapphire opens the very big cutlery box. Compared to the MBA card (made by AMD), the Vapor-Chamber works perfectly and does exactly what is expected of it. Even in the most outlandish living and installation situations. Together with a [...]
It’s that time again: Latency Time for eSports enthusiasts and of course those who want to become one. Besides high FPS and low – constant – frame times, latency can make the difference between victory and defeat. Everyone has to reflect on their own skill in the respective game [...]
Let’s start the graphics card week with today’s review of an RTX 4070 from Palit and an information that I also got confirmed in the meantime: NVIDIA will stop supplying its board partners for a few weeks. In the previous news, there was usually explicit talk about the GeForce RTX 4070 [...]
