New benchmark, new luck? I remember the good old days when Starcraft II and Replay were part of my benchmark inventory. Long, long it's been… The game itself was released a year ago, now it's available as a benchmark. Whether the sales figures are so low or you wanted to offer the community something good – I tend to be more [...]

While everyone before this test had assumed that the new Radeon RX 5500 XT would be in a duel with Nvidia’s GeForce GTX 1650 Super, the pricing of the last few weeks has already shown that Nvidia’s spies have changed the placement of their own super card in the end. The question as to whether AMD will measure up to the GeForce GTX 1650 [...]
After many measurement series and invested hours, the article about the power consumption of the Ryzen 9 3950X was (just) finished. The CPU, which AMD collected again this morning by courier for the rotation between the editorial staffs, was even somewhat warm, because I had to break off the tests now unfortunately. For this reason, there will be [...]
What is the best way to test graphics cards in the workstation area? Of course with appropriate software and not just any dead-optimized synthetics. But it's not just the software that decides, but also the hardware. That's exactly where I started again and thought long beforehand. In the end, because the fastest CPU per thread is also [...]
Today we are testing a Palit GeForce RTX 2070 Super Jetstream, which should not be confused with the well-known RTX 2070 SuperJetsream. The poor manufacturer now suffers a little from Nvidia’s all-encompassing general super-super-supersification and many miserly bargains quickly turn out to be super-confusion. But since the long-established [...]
Gainward would like to prove to us that RTX is also cheap with the GeForce RTX 2060 Super Ghost. Today’s test will have to show us whether the concept of the very cost-effectively constructed card can work. The Nvidia-owned RTX alternatives without super in the appendix are slowly becoming rarer and those who buy new will probably have to [...]
Meanwhile, games like Call of Duty with Raytracing even run quite smoothly on the GeForce RTX 2060, if you don't overdo it with the settings. But what are the most favorable cards from Palit and Gainward really good in their performance class? Here in the lab, I tested a cheap Gainward RTX 2060 Ghost, a quiet Palit RTX 2070 Super Jetstream and [...]
Many people were certainly annoyed by the somewhat sparse sampling, even those who had expected me to take a complete test at the launch. The fact that this was not possible may also be due to AMD's new sampling strategy and the fact that none of the dealers have a CPU before the 25.11. was allowed to give. Genereral verdongelung on all fronts [...]
Anyone who has followed igorsLAB closely over the last few months will certainly have noticed the heat conductive pads on which I have been weakening for a long time. At the latest since Nvidia’s memory fiasco with the RTX 2080 Ti, the more or less funny Space Invaders and the explanation search, we now also know what we can do to prevent [...]
All the errors and confusions about the suddenly occurring value of the memory temperatures of AMD’s current graphics cards understandably lead to uncertainty among many users. Modern memory chips, such as Micron’s GDDR6 modules, allow you to read out the value of the chip temperature Tjunction, which is read out internally for special [...]
