Companies Need To Stop Releasing Top-end Components With Poor Cooling Capabilities
Our friends over at Gamers Nexus have been playing around with their new NVIDIA TITAN V graphics card a lot, to the point where if the card had feelings, it’d undoubtedly feel violated. As per usual with a top-end card, Steve’s decided to take the stock cooler off, and make his own…..
Apple Launches Latest iMac Pro With AMD’s Radeon Pro RX Vega For Premium 8K Video Editing
When Apple took the veil off of its latest iMac Pros earlier this year, it made no secrets about AMD taking on the graphics duties, with its RX Vega series. Apple has touted the use of these GPUs in its latest desktop workstation the same way AMD has: it’s all about high-end…..
Have An EVGA GeForce4 From 2002? 1,000 EVGA Bucks Could Be Yours
Close to sixteen years ago, EVGA announced its first “ACS” (Asymmetric Cooling System) cooler for GeForce4 graphics cards. By today’s standards, the cooler was unbelievably simple, but at the time, it introduced the blower-style fan to increase cooling efficiency. One such card to utilize this cooler was the GeForce4 MX 440, an…..
AMD To Deliver On Its Promise Of An Open Sourced Vulkan Linux Driver Very Soon
If I had to guess, I’d say AMD really didn’t want to begin yet another year with its open source Vulkan driver still in hiding, so here we are: it’s finally happening. As Phoronix notes, AMD promised the world over two years ago that it would open source its Vulkan driver for…..
GamersNexus Tears Down NVIDIA’s $3,000 TITAN V Graphics Card
It hasn’t even been a week since NVIDIA released its TITAN V out-of-nowhere (at least the third time that’s been done with a TITAN card), but that doesn’t matter. Over at GamersNexus, the card hasn’t just been bought and benchmarked, it’s also been taken apart. NVIDIA’s not sampling this card, so all…..
NVIDIA’s TITAN V Won’t Run Crysis – It’ll Play Crysis
You thought the GTX 1070 Ti would be the last card of the year from NVIDIA? Yeah, well, it wasn’t. Completely out of the blue comes an announcement for one of the most powerful graphics in the world, and it’s a real Titan. Behold, NVIDIA’s first (sort of) Volta-based graphics giant, the…..
The Snapdragon 845 SoC Becomes Qualcomm’s New Flagship Chip
Continuing with the Tech Summit from Qualcomm on Hawaii, the new Snapdragon flagship SoC had its details released to the public, jumping from the current Snapdragon 835 that’s found in nearly every top-end smartphone, to the brand new 845 SoC. There are lots of incremental changes that we’d expect, such as faster…..
Qualcomm’s Latest Announcements A Timely Jab At Broadcom
Last month, Broadcom caused quite the reaction after it shot off an unsolicited offer to Qualcomm, flaunting a cheque that barely went beyond the company’s market cap. Most, including Qualcomm itself, thought that the offer was underwhelming, or perhaps even insulting. On the other side of the coin, an acquisition like this…..
Qualcomm To Stream Its Latest Snapdragon Tech Summit Keynote On December 5 (1:30PM EST)
In case it hasn’t been obvious enough, Qualcomm has been on a bit of a tear this year. Weeks ago, the company unveiled its much-anticipated Centriq 2400 series server processors – a launch that has to have Intel just a little bit worried. The company’s also had a big year in VR,…..
Synology Rolls Out Virtual Machine Support On Select NAS Units
Good news, Synology fans, Virtual Machine Manager is out of beta and available to all Synology owners running supported models. While the list is thin, owners of SMB and “Plus” models will more than likely be in luck. A complete list is outlined below. You might be asking yourself, what good does…..
Destiny 2 Currently Available For 35% Off (PC), With Free Trials Hitting All Platforms Tomorrow
If you’re finding yourself to be feeling a little Guardian curious lately, you may be interested in knowing that Bungie has conjured up two plots to get you to buy its latest game. I am not sure when the sale began, or when it’s going to end, but currently, the game is…..
AMD Tempts Radeon RX Vega’s Potential Customers With Free Copies Of Wolfenstein II & Prey
The current shopping madness revolves around Black Friday and Cyber Monday, but if you’re in the market for a new high-end GPU, AMD wants to entice you to the RX Vega side with a couple of free games. If you’re outside of the DACH region or China, you’ll be gifted a copy…..
Futuremark Updates VRMark With DirectX 12 Test, AMD Quickly Touts Radeon’s Strengths
Futuremark has just updated its VRMark test suite with a rather significant addition: a DirectX 12 test. The new ‘Cyan Room’ complements the Orange Room (designed for hitting minimum hardware requirements of Vive/Rift), and Blue Room (forward-thinking, and thus very hardcore). You can run VRMark either on a monitor, or an HMD, and…..
End Of An Era: NVIDIA Ceases Mental Ray Development To Focus On More Advanced Solutions
The rendering world is soon to witness the end of an era, as NVIDIA has announced that it’s going to cease development of the mainstay renderer, Mental Ray. Based on a couple of conversations I’ve had with NVIDIA over the past couple of months, this news isn’t too surprising (it also helps…..
Corsair Launches New Budget Gaming Headset: The HS50 For Consoles & PC
Corsair already has a wide range of gaming headsets with its VOID and VOID Pro ranges, but this time it’s going for something a little bit more cost-effective with the new HS50. It’s a trio of headsets built for consoles and PCs that’s meant to tick all the right boxes for sound…..
NVIDIA Delivers Dramatic Performance Boosts To Destiny 2 With GeForce 388.31 Driver
Mere weeks after Destiny 2 hit the PC, NVIDIA’s releasing a new driver that dramatically improves the game’s performance. That’s a great thing for you, but an awful thing for me, as I spent many hours testing the game across 14 GPU configurations mere weeks ago. Isn’t the life of a tech…..
Raja Koduri To Leave AMD, Next Stop, Intel?
The head of AMD’s Radeon Technologies Group (RTG), Raja Koduri, will be leaving AMD, and heading on over to Intel. This announcement was first reported by Hexus from a leaked email, but has since been confirmed independently from multiple sources. What’s interesting is that instead of heading over to somewhere like Apple,…..
Intel & AMD Partnership For Single Package Chips – The Next Wave Of All-In-One Systems
A rumor about an Intel/AMD partnership has circulated for decades, with copious amounts of ifs and buts thrown in. Today we have confirmation of a partnership that may both surprise and delight, as Intel lays the groundwork for a new generation of on-package processors, that of third-party GPU integration with its CPUs.…..
NVIDIA Begins Teasing A TITAN X ‘Collector’s Edition’
When rumors of NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 1070 Ti first dropped, it felt like the collective internet had the same question: “Where does that fit in?” There’s a 640 CUDA core difference between the GTX 1070 and 1080, after all (which, for the record, is (somewhat) equivalent to a GTX 1050, which has…..
Playing Destiny 2 On PC Makes The Console Version Feel Even Worse Than 30 FPS
This may sound like one of the most obvious things on Nessus, but 60 FPS is a lot better than 30 FPS. I’ve ranted up and down over the years about console companies focusing way too much on 4K resolution rather than giving us better performance. When I bought the PlayStation 4…..
AMD & NVIDIA Release New GPU Drivers To Complement Launch Of Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
I’m starting to get the sneaking suspicion that AMD’s and NVIDIA’s driver engineers never sleep. Last week, both companies ushered in a new driver to tackle the latest releases, such as Destiny 2, and now, both are at it again, with both offering optimized drivers for Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus. On…..
AMD Celebrates First Year Of Enterprise Driver Releases With… 17.Q4 Enterprise Driver Release!
Just a little over a week ago, AMD released its regular release Radeon Pro Crimson ReLive Edition driver in the form of 17.10. That release helped celebrate the launch of the Radeon Pro WX 9100, a card similar to the Frontier Edition in specs, but with tunings to make it a true…..
Synology Refreshes Budget Range Of NAS Units – Perfect For Media Stations
One and two-bay NAS units are some of the most common on the market, for when all you need is just a simple storage place on the network, without having to worry about complicated RAID setups. Synology is launching its latest range, and with the updated CPUs, they have a new trick…..
AMD Introduces First Two Ultrathin-bound Ryzen Mobile Processors
When AMD launched its Ryzen series of processors earlier this year, many (including me) exclaimed such things as, “Finally! AMD’s CPUs are relevant on desktops again!” That couldn’t have been more true. Before Ryzen, I can’t recall the last time a friend or even an acquaintance bought an AMD CPU for their…..
NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 1070 Ti Is Now Official – Launches November
A poorly kept secret over a new Pascal-based GeForce card denoting a Ti series moniker has now become official with the release of the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti. It sits itself between the GTX 1070 and GTX 1080 in terms of performance, and has its sights set firmly on AMD’s RX Vega…..
