Just in time for the start of AMD’s – long planned – counter-attack to DLSS, Nvidia is already countering preemptively. Expanding the usability of DLSS is likely to excite RTX graphics card owners. And for those who haven’t read it yet, here’s the link again to DLSS 2 [...]

Graphic Cards
The fact that China’s most important container ports are only operating at half power and that we are probably heading for the next global supply disaster is extremely worrying, but it is not even the reason for the component problem discussed here in the second part. But first let us come to [...]
I recently introduced you to the hardware brokers and published some internal prices of the “grey” market. Because we now also know where the stocks come from, when for example even the official distributors of the graphics card manufacturers wave off and lie dry. Because, as we now [...]
Even if many people don’t want to read it, today I have a board partner card from AMD in the form of the Powercolor Radeon RX 6700XT for you in a single test. What makes the card so special is its white PCB and all-white cover including white LED lighting. Since the whole thing stands out a [...]
What lasts long – usually becomes good. However, I took extra time for today’s test with the question “NVIDIA NULL and Reflex vs. AMD Anti-Lag and Radeon Boost, which works better?”. For some time now I have been writing about the topic of latencies and there have been a few [...]
After I have now already received the second tip about fake webseites with our content, which also led to the loss of various wallets and thus also the cryptocurrencies contained therein, I have not been idle in the meantime. Unfortunately, this time any cooperation ended at the Russian border and [...]
Alphacool vs. aquacomputer? Once again, today we have a reader review by Elmo from our community that addresses this very issue of GPU water blocks. Since I find the test, the methodology and also the used technique extremely exciting, I have summarized the whole thing as a real article and with [...]
Not only Asian media like ITHome speculate that NVIDIA will discontinue the Turing graphics cards in the form of the GeForce RTX 2060 or GTX 16xx series, which were relaunched earlier this year as a gap filler, in the foreseeable future. If you ask various board partners about their forecasts and [...]
For the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti FE (Founders Edition) unveiled today, NVIDIA uses the full GA104.1 In contrast to the GA102, a smaller chip like the GA104 usually promises higher yield and thus better availability, improved efficiency and cheaper production. So much for the theory. Except that this [...]
Today’s article comes a little later, at exactly 3:00 pm. Well, I’m sure you know what and why so late. There will also be 12 pages again with over 500 graphics, so the usual. Then, of course, they get naked, measure everything exactly and philosophize about sense or nonsense. I [...]
It was very quiet around AMD’s Radeon Pro portfolio of professional workstations for quite some time, which also rely on certified drivers and ECC-RAM, because especially in the professional environment such standards have to be met. While NVIDIA has been left almost without a fight for [...]
Empty shelves, horrendous prices, long waiting lists and even longer faces of the annoyed end customer. And yet, every now and then a few pieces turn up on various trading platforms or there are also some ready-made PCs with already installed graphics cards for sale. But where do these stocks come [...]
Before the test, there is now an appetizer in the form of a longer teaser, so that the most important data can already be published. The rest, unfortunately, is simply a matter of resources, as it was too much data at once and I also only have one head and two hands. Nevertheless, it is already [...]
You know I’m not a fan of limitless energy waste that the mining boom keeps pushing to new heights. It’s no secret that a new GeForce RTX 3080 Ti has its difficulties with Etherum and that it’s hardly worthwhile with this card here in Germany due to the lack of efficiency. That [...]
After the hot autumn of 2020 and the now almost seemingly eternal graphics card thirst, we have in the meantime also learned many new terms and various hardships. If you’re not into SM games, i.e. scalpers & mining, it’s really hard to realize your dream of a new, super-fast pixel [...]
"Hope you enjoyed all the new technologies we announced at #computex 2021. We are so proud of our @AMD Ryzen desktop APUs, @Radeon mobile GPUs, FidelityFX Super Resolution, and our brand new 3D chiplet technology – the best in high-performance computing!!!" (Dr. Lisa Su on Twitter)
Used graphics cards bought with a capital water damage – PayPal has decided (Update)| igorsLAB helps
Update from 30.05.2021 Based on an expert opinion I created for PayPal, the service provider has now decided in favor of the bruised buyer and has already transferred the money back. As long as you can prove everything cleanly, the buyer protection is quite useful, as long as you follow the most [...]
Much has been written about the game, so I don’t need to go into extreme detail again. And even though it’s actually a console port, the game is already from 2019 and used to be PS4 exclusive – the PC gets to show what it can do again here (and the player all the more). Deacon St [...]
If anyone is wondering why my output is currently a bit lower than usual, I can reassure them. I’m fit as a fiddle, but my input has gone way up for this. New graphics cards, a new half-year update of Windows 10, many game patches and new drivers once again make a complete reboot necessary [...]
In the first part of my review, I took a look at the XMG Ultra 17 barebone inside, the whole thing powered by an Intel Core i9-11900K. assembled and really stressed out. Today we have the missing gaming benchmarks, a few applications and the efficiency review of the GeForce 3080 laptop, which has a [...]
How, pray tell, does one write a review of something that is (almost) unavailable for purchase? Or you were lucky and/or had a somewhat bulging war chest and got one of the KFA RTX 3060 EX. Exactly for such rare moments of happiness in the gamer’s life I wrote this review today, because you [...]
Mass Effect is one of those things, it can get personal pretty quickly if you like the genre and remember the fondly sacrificed nights in 2007, 2010 and 2012. I even pulled out the original first part last year and played it on my retro PC. However, I quickly gave it up again, because the real [...]
Based on several reports of the last days and my article “Exclusive: Intel’s DG2 for Mobile and Desktop – Xe enters the second phase” I have today exclusively for you another table from an internal Intel slide, which also confirms many of the already leaked assumptions [...]
Since I have to do some longer tests now and then, like this notebook test, which takes more than just one day, I’ll give you a not-so-serious picture gallery as a mental compensation instead of a serious review, while I’m sitting up here in the lab and sweating. Light fare in hard [...]
AMD had recently released the first open source Linux graphics driver code for a new GPU called Beige Goby. Listed in it, Beige Goby is the latest Linux-specific codename used for new hardware enablements in their graphics drivers. We remember: After the Dimgrey Cavefish, the Sienna Cichlid, the [...]
