AMD’s board partners are planning to introduce the A520 chipset-based motherboards for the entry-level class next week, and the 18th A520 motherboard is being released. August as the official start date. The significantly lower-priced A520 offer is aimed primarily at desktop PC beginners and of course system integrators / finished PC [...]

ADATA is Taiwan’s largest manufacturer of flash memory and DRAM memory for computers and so it is not surprising that ADATA also offers a low-cost product to poach something in the area of beginners, upgrades and conversions. It’s interesting to note that you take a slightly different approach, the usual suspects with Toshiba 3D NAND [...]
After various disposable products I am now testing 2-way in-ears with ANC in the form of the 1More True Wireless ANC. Personally, I always have a hard time with such reviews, but curiosity had finally won here, too. To have a good price by chance and to always have a customer waiting in the family also means spontaneous shopping, unpacking and [...]
Curiosity wins and so I finally bought a MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk from a friendly dealer. After all the current discussions about the current marketing actions of the different manufacturers with high cashback offers and discounts for positive reader reviews on the one hand and the rather offensive marketing via social networks with the other vendor [...]
Sometimes you can’t keep up with the news at all, because two more Engineering Samples (ES) have turned up, whose OPN contains interesting details about the targeted clock rates. These two OPNs also stand for the new 16-core CPUs CPUs from the already known B0-Stepping. Whether the faster of the two will be called Ryzen 9 4950X or 5950X (or [...]
It’s done, even if it took a long time: the RBE now also supports older AMD graphics cards with Polaris chip. My personal thanks go to the community in general and to mynm in particular, because this time he did all the work and built everything into the RBE, while hellm did the background work this time. The result is very impressive and is [...]
One finds the Realtek ALC1200 very often on beginner and mid-range motherboards, and if you google once or interpret the swarm intelligence of the relevant forums, there is also a frightening amount of half and ignorance in circulation. Some write from a highly labeled ALC887, others from a slightly slimmed down ALC1220. And the only right thing [...]
There have been (once again) new rumors about AMD’s RDNA 2 “Navi 2X” GPUs that will be found in the next generation graphics cards of the Radeon RX series. The rumor again points to a late start in the 4th quarter. It will be available in the second quarter of 2020 and will also cover RDNA 3, which could be a major revolution for [...]
Since I have switched most systems in the lab and private sector to M.2 NVMe SSDs and also operate everything in a nice mixed way across the PCIe versions, one can, however, notice differences in parallel systems with identical software and the same workloads, even if some things are much less sensational than it is often spread by PR [...]
In this context, it is interesting to note that a member of XMG Schenker’s staff sent a letter to Reddit, which openly addresses precisely this problem. Thus, on 31. July the ODM made the announcement that AMD was facing a serious CPU shortage in Q3 2020. Major orders whose delivery has been confirmed by their ODM for mid and late August are [...]
The hype around the EarFun Air was already quite big, probably also because of cleverly launched reviews and press releases. A pair of buds for the narrow thaler with a rich sound and other good qualities? the reality: sold out and waiting for supplies. That makes you curious and a bit sceptical at the same time. All the more astonished I was [...]
Death Stranding is in some ways an opinion leader. Either you like it or you hate it. At least you can't accuse this game of being "uniform mash", because it does many things differently than you would expect. Whether it is a successful console port nevertheless or just because of that, you can read in the short test.
Sometimes it is good to wait at least a day or two to check the validity of some reports. For example, DigiTimes reported the day before yesterday that Intel had booked 180,000 wafers in the 6 nm process at TSMC and would use them for their flagship HPC GPU Ponte Vecchio. The order and the quantity should be right in the end, but the targeted [...]
Already in June Intel brought its 3. Gen Xeon Scalable CPU family, also known as the “Cooper Lake”, but still based on the 14nm architecture. Now some people in mainland China (where else?) have gotten their hands on the first QA (Qualified Sample) of Cooper Lake chips, which have an interesting design for the family of LGA 4189 CPUs [...]
The latest rumor comes from the Chinese technology company FCPOWERUP, known for its reports on power supplies, which has stated in an article that NVIDIA will use a new power supply interface for its next-generation gaming product line. I will comment on this in a moment, but first of all I want to reflect what has been published so far. The page [...]
