AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT picture and specs leaked

We have received, what appears to be, a slide from tomorrow's official announcement of Radeon RX 5700 series. AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT features 40 Compute Units (2560 stream processors). The Navi GPU is clocked at 1605 MHz in base mode, 1755 MHz in Game Mode and 1905 MHz in boost mode. Of course, the new addition here is the Game Clock. The card is confirmed to feature 8GB of GDDR6 memory. The memory bus width, memory clock, pricing, and availability date were not available at the time of writing.

AMD Ryzen 9 3950X to become world’s first 16-core gaming CPU

According to a slide we received today, AMD will launch Ryzen 9 3950X as world's first 16-core mainstream processor. The slide basically  "confirms" the speculation which began at Ryzen 3000 announcement at Computex. AMD Ryzen 9 3950X would utilize all available cores from both dies. It would preserve the TDP from Ryzen 9 3900X which features 12 cores but at the cost of a lower base clock. This AM4 processor is supposedly a 105W TDP part. The 3950X features a boost clock of 4.7 GHz, the highest from all Ryzen 3000.

Intel Optane Memory H10 512GB Review

When Intel first introduced their Optane Memory technology it was as in the form of small SSD’s with the primary aim of boosting the performance of SATA based drives through SSD caching.

MSI Optix MAG27CQ Curved Gaming Monitor Review

I’ve been using my trusted old 24-inch Dell monitor for the past 5 years. It’s been great, but now I think it’s time for an upgrade. I’ve been stubbornly holding back, from getting a new monitor because I didn’t see a real need to … until now.

I’m doing a lot of video editing and content creation lately, with some occasional gaming. And I notice my 24-inch monitor is at its limit. I need larger a monitor that can do all things I mentioned earlier. So finally, I decided to buy my first gaming monitor, and here are my list of criteria …

Shadow of the Tomb Raider Performance Analysis

It has taken quite some time, but I have finally returned to Shadow of the Tomb Raider to look at graphics quality and performance. Though the long wait between when the game released and now may mean this is of less interest, it also worked in my favor as the game was not only updated to support ray traced shadows, but NVIDIA released drivers enabling Microsoft DXR support on non-RTX graphics cards, including the GTX 1070 and GTX 1080 I have for testing. DirectX Ray tracing (DXR) is a hardware-agnostic ray-tracing technology and so does not require the RT cores of NVIDIA RTX GPUs, but RTX is able to act as a layer above DXR, significantly accelerating it. The RTX GPUs also support NVIDIA's Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) technology, and it too had support added to the game, so I took a look at its image quality impact.
