Including one or more games when buying graphics cards has become more common in the past year, largely after AMD’s major investment in the Never Settle campaign. Nvidia has the answer with a bunch of their own packages, where Watch Dogs was last in the spotlight and now it’s time for a new game title…
At the Siggraph conference, AMD introduces a bunch of new graphics cards in the Firepro W series, which, unlike the Radeon, are intended for professional users. It includes everything from CAD and media production to compute and virtualization. One of the newcomers is the Firepro W7100, which is apparently based on the new graphics processor…
Despite coin diggers seeking faster and more efficient specialized circuits (ASICs) to generate, for example, Bitcoin, the graphics card market increased during the second quarter of the year. Figures from Jon Peddie Research reveal that the number of delivered graphics solutions increased by 3.2 percent on a quarterly basis, but at the same time show…
A while ago, AMD took the plunge and presented a new series of graphics cards for professional users, where the Firepro W7100 is surprisingly first out with the graphics processor Tonga. The same circuit will also be used for consumer-oriented graphics cards in the Radeon series. The introduction takes place already this weekend. On Saturday,…
During the autumn, much focus will be on the performance segment, where both AMD and Nvidia have new graphics cards underway. For those who are looking for something in the entry-level segment, AMD will also prepare a new variant of the Radeon R7 250X, which will be more energy efficient and better suited for compact…
The fact that AMD has new graphics cards up its sleeve may not come as a surprise. A few months ago, it was revealed that the graphics processor Tonga is approaching and in practice replaces the aging Tahiti in the Radeon R9 280 series. The first model will be presented at the live 30th anniversary…
After months of rumors, AMD announced over the weekend the graphics circuit Tonga, which in practice replaces the aging Tahiti in the Radeon R9 280 series. In terms of performance, no world-changing changes are expected, however, the new graphics circuit will have improved energy efficiency, among other things. Sapphire takes advantage of this with a…
AMD’s latest graphics circuit “Tonga” is about to launch on September 2 and it will be without reference design. Instead, partner manufacturers are responsible for everything from circuit boards to coolers and also get free rein with the clock frequencies, something that most people are expected to take advantage of. Among the manufacturers is of…
Since the launch of the Geforce GTX Titan Z, the model has been overshadowed, probably because the price tag of SEK 27,000 is far more than most people are willing to pay. It is between the thumb and forefinger double up compared to the Radeon R9 295X2, which in most cases also performs better. The…
It’s soon time for the launch of the Maxwell architecture for the performance segment. In the lead is the flagship Geforce GTX 980, which is accompanied by the stripped-down cousin GTX 970. Extra interesting for the latter is that it is expected to arrive in a myriad of special designs from partner manufacturers. One of…
