Earlier in the autumn, information emerged that Nvidia was postponing the launch of the Geforce GTX 960 until the beginning of 2015. The reason was attributed to high demand for the GTX 980 and GTX 970, which had led to a shortage of the associated graphics processor GM204, which was also intended for the future….
It is blowing up to storm the graphics card market. While Nvidia was the first to deliver a new generation, AMD is working silently on the Radeon 300 series, where the Fiji graphics circuit is expected to replace Hawaii as the flagship. Now there are details that strengthen information that AMD has news to come…
After the launch of Nvidia Maxwell in the performance class, the partner manufacturers’ special models follow, where the most lavish variants are usually saved in the end. Asus is still in the starting blocks and has so far only started with the model series Strix DC2. It is now revealed that the next graphics card…
The fact that lots of new graphics cards are coming in is hardly an exaggeration. At the center is Nvidia’s new Geforce GTX 900 series, where not least the GTX 970 climbs the sales lists thanks to a very good price-performance ratio. Now it’s time to take a look at another newcomer. The Gainward Geforce…
Even after the introduction of the Nvidia GM204 with the Maxwell architecture, the huge circuit GK110 continues to be one of the most complex of all time, with a size of 561 mm2 and 7.1 billion transistors. Despite a new architecture, Kepler is not ready to retire, but is reborn with GK210. The newcomer is…
After demonstrating the Waterforce concept at Computex 2014, Gigabyte recently upgraded the water cooling package from three Geforce GTX 780 Ti to GTX 980, where higher performance and more manageable cooling are accompanied by an oh so important detail – store availability. Last week’s announcement is now followed by the product being listed in the…
In the summer of 2008, the GDDR5 memory standard was introduced, which has since gradually become the standard for most graphics cards from AMD and Nvidia. Now the technology is about to reach the end of the road, as further advancement in clock frequencies and thus memory bandwidth is expected to be difficult to achieve….
Nvidia’s latest graphics cards in the Geforce GTX 900 series are real bestsellers. However, it is not the flagship in the series that attracts the most attention, but the scaled-down Geforce GTX 970, which provides significantly more performance per crown. Asus takes the opportunity to ride the scales and is now releasing an extra lavish…
While Nvidia is drumming on the architecture Maxwell, it is quiet from rival AMD. Despite tough competition from the Geforce GTX 900 series, it does not look like there will be any new graphics cards in the Radeon family until at best ahead of the spring. The delay can very well be explained by the…
Stacked and closely integrated memory circuits with a super-wide memory bus are apparently on the agenda for the next generation of graphics processors – at least from AMD. This does not mean that the GDDR5 standard is ready to be passed on to the past, but higher capacities and clock frequencies are to be expected….
