The one thing I noticed, the guy looks to be using a gen1 HPWR connector. Even Corsair says with this new gpu generation, you should make sure you have gen2 connectors. They (Corsair) sell both native and 8pin gen2 connectors for their psus for 20 dollars.

Oh my goodness....So far my 4090 is ok for what I need, I may just sit this one out. I hate those 12V-2x6 connectors. Bad idea and just not consistant quality. For over 2K I would hope for better.

I remember flashing the HD6700 to a HD6900. seemed it allowed an increase in VCore and boosted the clocks a little. Never liked to do it for fear of bricking the card and at that point in time it was a little bit complicated. I think I did one card and called it a day. Given the cost and...

Introduction In mid-January 2025, MSI introduced its latest addition to AMD socket AM5 motherboards. We have the brand-new MSI MAG X870E TOMAHAWK WiFi for review and evaluation with a current MSI store pricing of $319.99. We very recently reviewed the MSI MAG X870 TOMAHAWK WiFi. You will find as...

AMD has outright said the future is AI, something Nvidia is way in front of. Gaming GPUs are going to be few and far between soon. Neither company honestly give a rat's behind......it's almost a halo product category. Console chips, I bet there is still a pretty good chunk of AMDs income...

I dont think thats a fair assumption. You cant base your purchase on rumors. I dont care if the two cards cost the same. The new AMD cards are very good and the nvidia cards at the low end arent. About all nvidia has is the improvement in DLSS and everybody has big hate for that, instead of...

I agree. Now that the 9070XT is out, the choice is obvious, especially if you dont care about ray tracing. But....thats the deal and it is the pinnacle of graphics in the right games. What we dont talk much about though is turning on DLSS4 and jacking up FrameGen to 4x. That is the game...

Introduction On our test bench today we have the latest entry into ASUS’s TUF Gaming series of GPUs with the ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 5070 12GB GDDR7 OC Edition video card. Launched on March 4th, 2025, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 sits just below the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti in the new Blackwell...

Introduction On our test bench today, we have the opportunity to review the brand-new MSI GeForce RTX 5070 12G GAMING TRIO OC. Launched on March 4th, 2025, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 sits just below the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti in the new Blackwell GPU lineup for 2025 and is aimed at the mainstream...

Introduction In July of 2024, AMD announced the X870/E chipset, along with the B850 chipset. In early January 2025, we began to see the release announcements of motherboards based on this B850 chipset, which supports socket AM5 CPUs. This review will evaluate the ASRock Phantom Gaming B850...

You should run the Half-Life 2 RTX demo and then tell me how you feel. Seeing a 20 year old game look entirely new is pretty amazing.

Introduction In July of 2024, AMD announced the X870/E chipset, also along with the B850 chipset. In early January 2025 we began to see the release announcements of motherboards based on this B850 chipset which supports socket AM5 CPUs. This review will evaluate the ASRock B850 Steel Legend WiFi...

I was very impressed with the Sapphire 9070XT. The build quality is top notch and innovative. It ran so quiet. Also is pretty strong in every game at 1440p. Ray Tracing is still a little weak but AMD is inching closer......they need to fix that and then they will own the 600-1000 dollar GPU...

Last night my game froze ALOT. I was using 572.70 driver. So this morning realized there was a new driver.....played this AM smooth as silk. Using RTX 4090 with an AMD 5800X3D. I have settings at Ultra, DLSS Quality at 4K. The game looks amazing. It looks like a recent release or compared...

Hahaha....twice as many as not very many is ......well.....a low number. Nothing on the shelf and $7000 for a 5090 on eBay.....come on.

Doesn't take a PhD to figure this one out. There simply is no Nvidia stock to be purchased. The scalpers have snatched them all up and the price is laughable. AMD, if you recall, postponed their launch thereby giving the partners time to produce more cards. They're all gone now. AMD's upper...

We test a ton of cards. I use one 2x6 purchased from Corsair and one 2x6 that came with an Enermax psu. I honestly hate them. They are difficult to insert. Even more difficult to remove. I do have a Corsair in my personal 4090 and so far so good, but its only been inserted once. Ive not had...

Introduction Today, March 5th, 2025, the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT and AMD Radeon RX 9070 GPUs are launching, and video cards based on these new GPUs will be available March 6th, 2025. In this review, we will take a look at the SAPPHIRE NITRO+ AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT video card. This video card […]...

So much information, it hurts your head. Nice complete article. The real deal here is can these cards compete with what is out right now, not a 3090 or a 7900GRE or whatever. I would hope a brand new GPU could stomp a card from 2 generations ago. Next, what can these things do in real-life...
