As threatened last week, the Alphacool ice block GPX-N won’t be the only modification to my RTX 3090 Founders Edition.

While [...]
No, today is not about real hardware that you can’t buy anyway! Today it’s about software for all AMD graphics card owners or those who want to become one, if they could, if there is something to buy again. The team around AMD’s Radeon driver development has always managed to get more performance out of AMD graphics cards over [...]

If you were able to purchase an RTX 3090 Founders Edition (FE) at launch for MSRP like I was, you can’t really complain. Ample performance for 144 FPS in most games even at the highest graphics settings and, if we’re being honest, the value increase of over 50%, naturally add to the appreciation. Only, as is so often the case, there [...]
After the 612 Stealth recently had to prove itself on the testbench, the big brother now follows. Find out how the block does in the article below: Packaging and scope of delivery The box is similar to the smaller cooler down to the last detail, but it is much bigger.

My colleague Usman Pirzada from WCCFTECH noticed something interesting while writing an article about the GTC 2021 announcement, because the wording of the blog post seemed a bit too ominous to him. That’s because when he took a closer look at the flashing lights in the tweet, he realized there was a Morse code message embedded in it. So it [...]

There are four quite different classes and of course lots of things to [...]
The Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML360 Sub-Zero is of course not a real cryo-cooling for really high loads, they don’t pretend to be, but it wants to guarantee such low temperatures in the partial load range that the highest possible boost clock rates can be run. That’s exactly what I tried to find out in a short test, because especially [...]
Yesterday the time had finally come and the first new BIOS versions with support for the extended address space went online. Now you can call it Resizeable BAR, SAM (Smart Access Memory), extended/large memory area or whatever, the system is always the same.
