The Radeon RX 550 is actually the only one of AMD's now-launched graphics cards to be truly new and runs internally as Polaris 12. It is clearly aimed at the entry-level area for less than 100 euros and thus occupies a market niche in which Nvid... Appearances, dimensions and connections The card, which is very light with 282 grams, is only 15 [...]
No, kleckern is not their thing and MSI likes to put one more on it when the specifications of the standard or Reference models ("Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11GB in Test") do not appear pompous enough. Why not, as long as you have the consequences of the... The board at a glance MSI relies on a rather tidy multi-layer board with a [...]
But what can the new edition offer (more)? After all, the GPU itself is not a real new development, but only the continuation of what AMD started with "Ellesmere" and Polaris 10 last year. Since our launch article "AM... Power supply and layout The board is a simple multi-layer design by Asus and differs significantly from the old [...]
Endless Roundup and Depth Testing Many will of course wonder why we made the roundup for the Radeon RX480 only now, or why we did the roundup for the Radeon RX480. have begun. But firstly, we have fundamentally changed the division of labour within the editorial office, as well as new... Apart from the fact that AMD appears at the front in the [...]
The original cooling of the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti during the Bechmarks and analyses for our last week's launch article Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11GB really didn't blow us off. Yes, she ends up doing what she s... Overclocking and stability tests We were amazed that we were able to reach the limit of 2.1 GHz. Whether our sample was a [...]
No one was surprised when Nvidia presented its GeForce GTX 1080 Ti at this year's Games Developer Conference (GDC). Surprisingly, there was only one thing: the price point of 700 dollars. Based on the specifications of the map, the GeForce G... Ashes of the Singularity (DX12) In the past, we've tested Ashes of the Singularity with the [...]
Introduced by Nvidia's boss Jen-Hsun Huang at the Games Developers Conference in San Francisco, the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti is the new spearhead of GeForce consumer cards, as it offers as many shaders as the Titan X (Pascal)...
We remember the little experiment Pascal becomes passive: We are building a fanless GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (Eglisch: Modifying a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti for Passive Cooling), in which I – as i have done a few times before – narrowly failed a completely passive cooling. In the end, it was never without a generated draught. With the XFX RX460 [...]
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 [...]
