nVidia has very recently launched 2 new cards, the RTX 5070 ($550) and the RTX 5070 Ti ($750). This is a standard nVidia launch, so if you want the tl;dr: Good cards, overpriced. For more details (and how we’ll be changing our chart), read on…
Did you check out the new RTX 5080 launch? It is nVidia’s latest $1000 (or $1500) card, meant for those who have $1000-$1500 to spend on a GPU, and do not wish to splurge on the $2800 RTX 5090. It is a good time to be very wealthy! Getting deeper into RTX 5080 specifics is not […]
Intel has recently released two new graphics cards, the Arc B570 and Arc B580, both targeting the mid-range tiers. How do they fare? Do they belong in our chart?
Tell me, how rich are you? If you are rich, then we can be friends. If you are very very rich, I would like to upgrade you to my best friend, and tell you about nVidia’s two newly released hyper-overpriced graphics cards, the RTX 5080 and RTX 5090. …let us take a closer look:
CPUs are a duopoly. While some alternatives to AMD and Intel technically exist, their market share is so tiny that they do not appear on some statistics tracking pages. It is for this reason that we rarely talk about only Intel or only AMD. We instead compare them to one another, as they are both […]
It has been a while, but here we are with AMD’s Ryzen 9000 series launched and ready for purchase! AMD’s new CPU series starts with a serious set of excellent high-end CPUs. We are not going to analyze all of them individually in this post, but as a quick summary: Ryzen 5 9600X: 6 cores […]
Greetings. We are updating the CPU performance information shown. Our current CPU descriptions compare performance to the old Ryzen 9 3900X. We are updating the performance numbers to be compiled from newer benchmarks, and showing performance relative to the new Ryzen 9 9900X. As we update the CPU descriptions, you may see errors in the […]
nVidia has recently released three refreshed cards, the RTX 4070 Super, RTX 4070 Ti Super, and the RTX 4080 Super. That is a lot of Supers! Let us take a look at each, in brief.
I am always excited by hardware launches! The feeling of fresh, new, unexpected hardware! Progressing technology, things getting faster, or cooler, or cheaper, or all three at the same time. It is wonderful, and it is a feeling I look forward to with each launch… Intel just launched its Raptor Lake refresh CPUs, adding a […]
One year ago (almost to the day) Intel presented its A770 and A750 cards to the world. These were reasonably priced cards with reasonable performance, but were not added to our build chart then because—in addition to other minor issues with them—they suffered from two major flaws: The performance in old titles was poor. The […]
