The salami slices continue to pile up happily and we can finally write a little more about the upcoming CPU generation Zen today. But stop! A little bit AMD has filled the pun box office and Zen is only part of the we...
After almost four days of travel and a packed day in Sonoma, California at the AMD Technology Summit, we are finally back and have brought a lot of information, which we now - in AMD-imposed salami tactics - piece by piece...
As part of the new driver, AMD with Chill offers an interesting feature that can greatly reduce the power consumption depending on the situation, keep the card cooler and also offer advantages. With OCAT comes a new, free benchmark-... FPS: All or nothing? We're really naughty now and we're doing something AMD didn't really want by [...]
AmD, after the Omega driver from 2014, which was mostly a performance update, and Crimson from 2015, which was more of an optical improvement, is still packing a lot of work and into the new Radeon software.
We don't want to dramatize it, but without a clever underplower, Watch Dogs 2 doesn't do much. Living more beautifully or falling by the wayside? We want to clarify which pixel wallpapers still stick well even with little paste. Other... Full HD with 1920 x 1080 pixels and "Ultra" & "Very High" settings We have [...]
New color, new name, new happiness? It's been a bit since AMD announced the Radeon Pro WX 4100, WX 5100 and WX 7100 professional graphics cards. Then nothing came for quite a while. Meanwhile, the Radeon Pro models WX 410...Exterior and connectors With the Radeon Pro WX 7100, AMD is putting a blue single-slot flounder on the shelves of [...]
Reasons for the post-test In our Pascal Roundup: GeForce GTX 1070 and GeForce GTX 1080 we reported in great detail about the EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 FTW and the cooling problems we identified. We already had EVGA... Measurements on the gaming loop Our test demands the graphics card quite neatly and the power consumption increases to values that only [...]
It's been almost four years since we first tried a GeForce GTX 650 in our two-part Silent Gaming project - More graphics performance including thermal protection circuit (here part 1, which is about the PC itself). Temperatures, clock rates and voltages Our measurements have to be carried out in passive mode over a much longer period of time [...]
In this article, we don't just want to limit ourselves to a thermal paste comparison with (de-)assembly instructions, but also to show why some cards simply can't cool better and why you can't cool the entire cooling system, including the fans... Dismantling without depression Before screwing, for example, with GPU-Z you should log the [...]
Since we want to test as soon as possible how such a solution behaves compared to closed compact water cooling, we simply reconstructed and assembled the Alphacool Eiswolf GPX-Pro 120 AiO ourselves, because the used... Easy conversion - if you know how to do it Alphacool provides an assembly instruction in the form of a leaflet, which describes [...]
No, AMD really didn't have it easy with and with the launch of the Radeon RX 480 in reference design. In addition to the initially poor availability and the resulting high street prices, it was above all the current surge problems that the kart...
PresentMon: Frame Times for DirectX, OpenGL and Volcano Measure Since the introduction of DirectX 12, Windows UWP and Vulkan, we have once again been faced with the task of determining at least a largely reliable determination of the rendering times of all individually... Frames per second In the end, these time-based averages only tell how many [...]
