What it rightly shoulda had the whole time. Of course, it is really an RTX 5060 with a 128-bit bus, so I guess it was either 8 or 16, but still.

I didn't realize Palit had owned GALAX, learn new things.

Hopefully Zen 6 will have improved IMC. Rumor states DDR5 8000 will be the sweet spot? Whereas now it's 6000. I suppose at least, 8000 will probably be the common frequency that is easily compatible, whereas now it's not guaranteed.

I just did a quick test with the 270K Plus with 7600 MT/s DDR5 I'm using, CL38-46-46-105 CR2 - AIDA64 reports 81ns I'll be doing more testing, and have a different kit I'll be comparing with, just wanted to share with you what I got on this system at the moment.

Intel really entered at a bad time in the market, that just honestly got worse, and it is not surprising they can't get over the hump now. I completely understand it, but it is sad, they had real potential for providing competition.

Their "APUs" should continue and provide some competition in that area. Handhelds maybe also.

I haven't tested it, but I will be doing some DDR5 memory performance comparisons with different speed DDR5 for an upcoming memory comparison review, and I'll make sure to check out the latency in that testing.

Introduction The Intel Core Ultra 7 270K Plus was launched in March 2026 at $299 MSRP, while the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K was launched in October 2024 at $589 MSRP, but do they perform the same? In what might be a surprising and positive outcome, the newly released 24-core Intel Core Ultra 7 270K...

Impressed with their rollout of patches. But always sad that this couldn't have been done prior to launching the game.

This is actually a good watch, a very balanced analysis on the topic that has occurred with this launch.

Introduction The Intel Core Ultra 5 250K Plus was launched alongside the Intel Core Ultra 7 270K Plus on March 26th, 2026. Both of these new CPUs are part of the new Intel Core Ultra 200S Plus desktop CPU series “Arrow Lake Refresh” launched for current generation socket LGA1851 motherboards...

Content creation was the area AMD was marketing for these CPUs' benefits. I'd like to come up with some cool tests, not using benchmark suites, but actually doing real transcode or editing in Divinchi, some rendering or photo editing apps, etc... real-world things that people use, in addition...

I think it can also prove as a successful test concept for the technology. It proves that this configuration can be done, and produced, technically, and this could prove useful as a proof and viable functionality for future product designs to launch in this configuration from the start.

AMD did tell everyone there wouldn't be advantages; this had been discussed by them for a while, so the results are not shocking and expected. In this instance, AMD was truthful in its marketing toward it. I can acknowledge the positivity in having it exist as an option, while also stating...

Do these use the new RGB Stripe subpixel layout? I wouldn't even get an OLED today unless it had this new technology, since productivity is important in my workload. I noticed it said 4th Gen OLED, I wasn't sure if that automatically means it uses the new layout or not.
