In the seven months since NVIDIA launched its first Ada Lovelace-based GeForce, we’ve seen the release of four models total. With the bottom of that bunch priced at $599, there’s been a ton of demand for more affordable options - and thankfully, we now know that those are arriving soon. Today’s...

[PAGETITLE=NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti: Introduction & Rendering][Top Ad] As NVIDIA announced last week, it’s going to spend some time these next two months filling in some of the bottom-end of its current-gen Ada Lovelace GeForce lineup. Today, the company lifts the performance embargo for its GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB, with market availability expected tomorrow. In July, the lineup will expand to seven models, with a 16GB version of the RTX 4060 Ti offered, as well as the next step below: RTX 406…

[PAGETITLE=AMD Radeon RX 7600: Introduction & Rendering][Top Ad] Hot on the heels of NVIDIA launching a new Ada Lovelace-based GeForce yesterday, AMD today lifts the veil off of its own new RDNA3 addition. While NVIDIA’s $399 GeForce RTX 4060 Ti helped fill in a gap near the bottom of its current generation series, AMD’s decided to skip over possible RX 7700 and RX 7800 cards to instead introduce a new lower-end option: the $269 Radeon RX 7600. At $269, the Radeon RX 7600 becomes one of the leas…

[PAGETITLE= Intro; CATIA, SolidWorks, Creo & Siemens NX Performance][Top Ad] AMD’s latest generation Radeon PROs have just landed, and come to us in the form of the high-end Radeon PRO W7800, and even higher-end Radeon PRO W7900. This newest series is built on AMD’s RDNA3 architecture, which brings numerous performance improvements and feature updates. One of the biggest changes at the hardware level to RDNA3’s high-end parts is the adoption of a chiplet design, which we’ve previously seen from…

We’re a little late on covering this one, but wanted to make sure we did, because for multiple reasons, it’s an interesting launch. Up to this point, we haven’t heard too much about Intel’s Arc Pro series, aimed at workstation, despite two models having been available since last year. Today, a...

AMD has today announced the launch of its latest generation Ryzen PRO desktop and notebook platform, featuring Ryzen PRO 7040 processors. This launch brings the Zen 4 architecture to AMD’s business-oriented Ryzen platform, providing more performance, better efficiency, improved battery-life, and...

Qualcomm has today launched the newest iteration of its entry-level mobile SoC: Snapdragon 4 Gen 2. With Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 having launched just last September (alongside Snapdragon 6 Gen 2), this latest release might be one of the quickest successive launches we’ve seen from the company...

[PAGETITLE=NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti: Introduction & Rendering][Top Ad] NVIDIA has just launched its latest Ada Lovelace-based GeForce: RTX 4060 8GB. Unlike most launches, which NVIDIA (and others) like to keep under wraps until the last minute, anyone who pays attention to the PC hardware space won’t be surprised by this one, as NVIDIA itself revealed the GPU last month. The GeForce RTX 4060 rounds-out NVIDIA’s current-gen GeForce lineup. We inquired as to whether or not the RTX 3050 is still…

Being a company laser-focused on performance, it’s no surprise that Intel loves talking about it - whether it involve its CPUs, or GPUs. That became ever-more evident after the launch of its Arc-series graphics cards last year, and it was for a reason. While Arc’s debut was rough around the edges, vast improvement was seen in the months that followed as more optimized drivers released. Today, based on what we see being said around the community, Arc is in a great state. When we look back to the…

[PAGETITLE=Maxon Cinebench 2024 & Redshift GPU Rendering Performance][Top Ad] One of the most popular performance benchmarks on the planet is Maxon’s Cinebench. We’ve been taking advantage of it for CPU-bound rendering tests for ages - it’s actually difficult to recall a time when we didn’t use it. So, when a new version launches, it tends to grab the attention of anyone who loves performance-testing hardware. The latest version of Cinebench released last month, and it brought about some major c…
