    High power usage in iddle, really? One could draw some conclusions based on graphs provided, but definitely not that.

    Review AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D Review: Stunning gaming performance meets top-tier productivity

    So now its about who makes more money? I thought it was about better, more performant, less powerhungry, future proof/uppgradable CPU. At least that was the argument in favour of intel for years. Tides has changed since zen.

    Review Apple Mac Studio (Early 2025) Review: Renewed vigor with M4 Max and M3 Ultra

    Wouldnt amd 7700 be a better comparison? Similar core qty, newer, same single core perf as apple newones.

    News Melting RTX cables solution proposed — embed over temperature and current protection on each wire

    Or, instead of putting layers of makeup on this pimple, just squeze it. Say sorry we went so far up with power draw, its not reasonable for gaming. Game devs should simply stop. Lets focus on reduction of power in next generation till we get back to sane levels. And lets face it - gfx in...

    Review Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 Founders Edition review: Blackwell commences its reign with a few stumbles

    Can you elaborate on that CAD subject? I know it's offtopic, but please - why do you think it's better for such tasks? It is so rarely tested.

    Review Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 Founders Edition review: Blackwell commences its reign with a few stumbles

    Products like this should receive 3stars max. Great performance but at what cost? Is it the right direction that power draw increases at each iteration? Is it worth to chase max perf each time? For me it would be perfect if 5000 series stayed at same TDP as previous ones - meaning better design...

    News Benchmarking Blackwell and RTX 50-series GPUs with Multi Frame Generation will require some changes, according to Nvidia

    Dont benchmark it. Measure natively generated frames at correct resolution, compare and thats it. Add a side notes after conclusions about fake frames etc. Excitment about it fuels efforts to work on this crap instead of reducing power use. Also game devs implement bs graphic details that make...

    News Razer showcases Project Ava AI gaming co-pilot and Project Arialle gaming chair with heating and cooling functionality

Plugged in or with s battery? 😊 Regarding AI: i can see it saying "give me the stick you fool, i'll show you how to beat crap out if this boss". Not yet, but at some...

    So, whats the point of using a ssd cooler at all? I have passive heatsinks installed in all my setups, but did that based on assumption thats the thing to do. If it does not affect noticabely performance, then well, i spent some money on sth unnecessary. Such cooler teansfers heat from ssd...

    Review iHTP M.2 2280 NVMe Cooler Review: The best SSD heatsink only costs $6.99

    Why no transfer tests? At least synthetc ones, but naturally a more real life test eg game loading, copy-paste of several gb file and few thousands of smaller files. I dont care if it gets hot. I would not care if file operations are a little bit longer - depending on how much. And thats the...
