GDDR5

I'm hoping on upgrading my current graphic card (GTX 1050 ti) to a RTX 2080. However, the GTX 1050 ti is a GDDR5 whereas the RTX 2080 is a GDDR6; is this a problem?

I am perfectly aware that GDDR5 dedicated vRAM (first to have come with the Radeon HD 4870 in 2008) is greatly different from DDR5 system memory which has come out shortly onto the market. I know my question may not be answered fully and entirely correctly, however, I would like to pose it...

I recently purchased a generic RX 580 2048. It has 8gb GDDR5 memory, but how does the ram work? Is it several 8gb chips in parallel? Or is it supposed to be several 1gb chips? When I took it apart to apply thermal grease (temps was wonky) I noticed all the memory chips are 8gb Samsung modules...

Excuse me for a silly question but I'm just too curios!!! I know that you can replace bad modules and even upgrade more memory on some GPUs. I was wondering if I can give some performance boost to my GTX 760 (GV-N760OC-2GD) that is in my other 10 year old PC. It's used for when my cousins and...

Hi, I'm looking to upgrade my current graphics card (R9 380) to a GTX 1660 Super. R9 380 uses GDDR5 memory and the 1660S uses GDDR6. My question can I do this (will the change in memory have any affects that I should know about)?

Hi, i want to upgrade my GPU from HD 3650 to GTX 770 for my old LGA 775 Xeon PC. I've found it cheap with full-box content. I'll probably get shocked from the performance difference. I've heard the 2GB VRAM not enough for modern titles. I'll use this GPU for gaming and editing software at...

So, in my recent efforts to build the cheapest decent PC possible, I bought a Dell Optiplex 980 SFF mobo to go along with my 1st gen i5 Quad-core. Little did I realize it was a BTX form factor, and I don't feel like buying another mobo so I guess I'm stuck with this. Couple questions: 1. Are...

Over the last 2-3 days my PC has been stuck at 100% disk usage and the baffling thing is I can't find the process responsible for it. Here's a picture of my Task manager displaying I'm using 100% of my HDD (It's Displayed as 50% in the manager as I have a SSD too) and the task manager lists...

I'm thinking about buying a 600B power supply from EVGA. I live in Singapore, where the voltage is the same as in Australia. I was wondering how you can change the voltage to make the PSU work here. Also, if there's a switch to change the voltage, where is it. Thanks.

I've been doing some research, and I cannot find many instances of a CPU dying of natural causes. They seem neigh indestructible under normal use. What exactly *can* cause a CPU to die? Why does it cause the CPU to die? I'm just trying to fulfill some technical curiosity. Thanks in advance!

Let me start off by saying that this isn't a suggestion for a main computer, my main computer is a gaming PC which I built, so we can leave out any worries associated with that. I'll be starting college in a couple of months and I really need a laptop. I've had a macbook in the past and as a...
