We review the new AMD Radeon R9 270, not to be confused with the 270X model ! The non X models are bound to offer value for money as really it these puppies are Pitcairn in disguise (Radeon HD 7870). Though this product is slightly slower than its bigger brother the 270X is is capable of pushing some nice numbers allowing you a very decent gaming experience for a tip-top price.

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 780 Ti WindForce 3X OC review

In this review we test the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 780 Ti WindForce 3X OC, with a new 450W WindForce 3X cooler and a factory overclock this thing is fast ! NVIDIA unlocked the GPU completely meaning all 2880 Shader processors are available. That combined with increased core and memory clock frequencies and nice overclock potential will make this the top 699 USD flagship product to purchase for the Christmas holiday season. So yeah, this means it is based on the GK110 revision B GPU and has an whopping 7.1 Billion transistors. That makes it a nice one of the fastest graphics cards available on the market today. We test the product with the hottest games like Metro: Last light, Battlefield 4, Medal of Honor Warfighter, Hitman Absolution and many more.

In this review we test the GeForce GTX 780 Ti. The GeForce GTX 780 Ti is NVIDIA's all new high-end graphics card based off the same chip that is the GeForce GTX Titan. However, NVIDIA probably figured, save the best for last as NVIDIA unlocked the GPU completely meaning all 2880 Shader processors are available. That combined with increased core and memory clock frequencies and nice overclock potential will make this the top 699 USD flagship product to purchase for the Christmas holiday season. So yeah, this means it is based on the GK110 revision B GPU and has an whopping 7.1 Billion transistors. That makes it a nice one of the fastest graphics cards available on the market today.

PC Gaming in UHD - Ultra High Definition - benchmarks review

Every now and then in the PC gaming segment these rules re-apply, bigger = better and faster = better. PC gamers are the more enthusiast aficionado's lots of you all start you graphics card with say a GTX 760 as bare minimum. Often our reader base is in the Radeon HD 7970 and GTX 770/780 range though. That said, PC gamers want the best in performance and visual quality. However it has been quiet in the graphics arena, most video cards albeit faster are similar and over the past year or so not a lot of new technology has been released.

In this article we review ASUS GeForce GTX 760 DirectCU MINI edition, this particular model comes with a dual-slot DirectCU Mini cooling solution that will fit small form factor based motherboards like Mini ITX up-to 17cm. ASUS has re-engineered the DirectCU cooler to fit small form factor cases. While shorter, it introduces a copper vapor chamber placed directly on top of the GPU for faster heat spreading and dispersal with lower temperatures than reference GTX 760.

This review will demonstrate the awesomeness that is the MSI GeForce GTX 760 HAWK. The TwiNFrozr IV cooling solution based product is VERY silent but more overly, it is the fastest factory clocked GTX 760 we have seen to date. And that shows in sheer performance. Being a HAWK however also guarantees nice overclock experiences. Join us in this article, where we'll take the product close to 1400 MHz, which is a pretty impressive clock frequency. Let's see if the HAWK model will be worth it for you.

AMD Framepacing Catalyst 13.8 driver examined with FCAT
Posted by: on: 08/01/2013 06:54 PM [
49 comment(s) ]
AMD released a Framepacing Catalyst 13.8 Beta driver which we examine with FCAT. In our recent FCAT benchmarking article from April, we discovered that AMD Crossfire suffers badly from a phenomenon called micro-stuttering. A problem that has been known for years and something both AMD and NVIDIA have had. NVIDIA solved their issue starting with Kepler based graphics cards. However since a new technique called FCAT was introduced, a whole lot of micro-stuttering was exposed for AMD, putting them on severe pressure to release a fix for this. Today is the day that we look at AMDs Catalyst 13.8 Beta frame pacing driver and examine the latest games to see if AMD has made progress.

We test and review the PowerColor Radeon HD 7850 SCS3 today. This stock clocked Radeon HD 7850 is cooled passively, meaning it has no fans tool it down.

In this article we review the beast, a. The GTX 770 from Inno3D is locked and loaded with the mighty HerculeZ cooler, that's three slots wide but keeping the GPU under 55 Degrees C and completely silent. Pure awesomeness. That's not all though, it is factory overclocked for you at a very high level but even so can be tweaked quite a bit further.
