Sounds interesting. If they manage to get commercial NVMEs in the 240GB+ range on the market for a reasonable price, I would definitely consider using one as a boot drive. Even if it lacks in sequential access speeds, DRAM like random access time on the boot drive would be pretty awesome! I...

I like the 60%, even more so that it is available in international ISO layouts! It would be nice if it was fully programmable, though. All my 60% keyboards have the Fn key all the way to the bottom right, with the three keys between it and the Spacebar, as well as the key next to the right...

In this case, I can understand AMD keeping RDNA 3.5 for the new IGPs. Specifically here, RDNA 3.5 has been highly optimized for power and bandwidth restrained mobile scenarios. While it might make us feel better to have RDNA 4 (and FSR 4 would be very welcome in mobile!), unless they have the...

I am sure it is a typo, but I sure would take that top model for 1499.99€ :roll:

Is it just me, or does having a covering on the cooler fins seem to defeat the purpose of having a flow through cooler :confused: I am not against anyone using the 12V-2x6 connector, but I really feel it was badly specced. As I recall, it has only a 10% safety overhead for the connector...

Sounds interesting. Depending on just how low power, and affordable, they are, I wonder if we could see AI-Upscaling HDMI cables, or inexpensive AI-Upscaling boxes, at some point? I could definitely see use cases for this, sitting between a media streamer and the TV. Depending on how much...

Yeah, I spent some time looking, but could also not determine exactly how the base and boost clocks are being determined. I am sure it must be documented somewhere, but it is beyond me to locate it. The closest Info I could Find is that the NVAPI lets you directly read the Base and Boost clocks...

Now that you say it, it does make sense, that changing the V/F curve would cause some difficulties :oops: You can see my curve below (flattened at 975 mV, from a base +200 MHz offset). I suppose, showing the current Base and Boost clocks, taken at the same voltage points used to determine the...

Hey, hope this is the correct place to report a minor bug in GPU-Z... This particular bug has persisted for at least the past two releases of GPU-Z, as well as nVidia Driver Versions 572.16 and the current 572.47. Issue: Upon using Afterburner to apply an overclock, GPU-Z reads incorrect GPU...

After the RTX 5090 Missing ROP news broke earlier, I decided to check mine. Luckily, I am not affected. Hope the rest of you have fully working cards as well! Now, if only I could figure out why GPU-Z reads my clocks wrong after I use Afterburner to OC... EDIT: It makes perfect sense; the...

... after checking how many wafers TSMC can process in a day ... I would like to change my answer to "nVidia is just F-ing with us" :p

Well, if all 5 GB205 and 10 GB206 wafers nVidia had ordered were impacted...

No need to grab the pitchforks here; this is a legitimate production issue. On January 21st, there was an earthquake in Taiwan, which caused TSMC to Lose the Wafers that were in production. I have heard that 10,000 to 20,000 wafers were lost...

Yeah, I also feel that Valve needs to refresh the Steam Deck sooner rather than later. That said, I do hope they forgo an off-the-shelf APU for another custom design. My Steam Deck 2 APU wishlist: 6x Zen 4c cores, with a unified 16MB L3 cache The compact cores are plenty performant for a...

Well, that is one way to do it! :laugh:
