Intel's Arc drivers were relatively huge at launch, but in the past two months they've shrunk to less than half their former size. Impressive!

Nvidia announced a new H100 NVL PCI Express solution, which packs dual H100 chips with NVLink into a chunky expansion card. The cards also feature more memory, allowing for larger models.

Nvidia's GPU Technology Conference (GTC) for the spring of 2023 kicks off with a keynote covering all the latest happenings in the world of graphics, AI, and more.

The Asus RTX 4080 Noctua OC Edition has officially launched, and we've got an unboxing and first look at the product. It's big, brown, and beautiful.

It's nowhere near ChatGPT, but at least it can work on a single GPU

With Windows 11 (and possibly 10) now enabling VBS by default, we ran some tests to see how much it's impacting performance with the RTX 4090 on a Core i9-13900K. Here are the results of our testing.

We tested multiple generations of AMD, Intel, and Nvidia GPUs to look at both encoding performance and quality. Here's how the various cards stack up.

Backblaze published it's data for SSD reliability and temperatures for 2022, with less than a 1% annualized failure rate among the 2,906 drives.

Over a dozen driver updates in the past four months

The first SSDs with support for PCIe 5.0 are now available, with high prices on these early models.

Improve those low quality video streams

Nvidia's RTX 40-series laptops are out, with benchmarks and confirmation of the die sizes on the smaller chips. These hint at what we might see from the future desktop parts.

Will we get both cards this generation, or will there be only one?

Our GPU prices index tracks graphics cards sales and prices on eBay. eBay graphics card prices have started to fall again after trending upward during the holidays last year.

Lots of money for a rare but archaic graphics card

The RTX 4090 and other new and upcoming GPUs make their debut with the latest Steam Hardware Survey, which shows data from January 2023.

Intel has dropped the official price of the Arc A750 to $249, and shows continued performance improvements thanks to driver updates.

RTX 4090 doesn't have to be huge

We test all the modern graphics cards in Stable Diffusion and show which ones are fastest, along with a discussion of potential issues and other requirements.

Bloated drivers can't be good for performance

We look at the performance per dollar of the current and previous generation graphics cards and rank them by value.
