Today the embargo has lifted on AMD's new Ryzen 3800XT and 3900XT processors. Almost identical to their non-XT counterparts, Luke dives deep into the behaviour of these two CPUs, looking at boost ...

Why it matters: Graphics card overclocking records don't usually involve budget hardware. For example, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 – a card that launched at $1,599 – set the world record for discrete ...

TL;DR: MSI's GeForce RTX 5090 LIGHTNING Z, launched at CES 2026, is the most powerful PC gaming GPU, featuring dual-BIOS with 800W OC and 1000W Extreme modes for extreme overclocking. An experimental ...

AI-powered overclocking is changing how performance tuning works by removing guesswork from CPU and GPU optimization. Instead of manual voltage tweaks and repeated stress tests, machine learning ...

Overclocking used to be easy, man. Just move a jumper, fiddle with a DIP switch; did it boot? Hallelujah! Things haven't been that simple in a long time, but they've gotten even more complicated with ...

DigiTimes reported that Nvidia is considering Intel Foundry for some manufacturing and packaging in 2028. Packaging alone could be worth well over $1 billion to Intel, and the manufacturing part of a ...

GPU memory (VRAM) is the critical limiting factor that determines which AI models you can run, not GPU performance. Total VRAM requirements are typically 1.2-1.5x the model size due to weights, KV ...

If you're thinking about upgrading to a new graphics card this year, your window for doing so at MSRP has closed. When I first reported on this at the start of December, things were looking bleak but ...

GPUs Gigabyte CEO teases Nvidia’s 'revenue per gigabyte' push — mid-range RTX 50-series GPUs could be at risk Computing Nvidia won't release new gaming GPU for 'first year in three decades' due to RAM ...

When you're setting out to get a new gaming PC or laptop, you've probably noticed there are quite a few models out there without an Nvidia or AMD graphics chip. These devices usually come with an ...

Next gen GPU development is no longer about raw horsepower alone. Chipmakers are redesigning architectures around efficiency, smarter power delivery, and AI-first workloads. As silicon scaling slows, ...

When you think of overclockers, you probably imagine some obsessive tech nerd coming up with an elaborate contraption to boost CPU or graphics card speed. And that’s absolutely true… but sometimes ...
