    Intel Core i7-13700K Raptor Lake-S CPU Runs Geekbench

    Except that if heating is the same as 12900k, then you can expect your cpu to never perform as advertised because it will overheat without a BEEFY cooling solution. in performance mode even with an NHD15 it will overheat and throttle, 240/280mm rad aren't enough, so are several 360 that... so...

    Chinese SMIC Ships 7 nm Chips, Reportedly Copied TSMC's Design

    When it comes to "cheap production" just refer to my previous post. they only can afford to produce cheap because when it comes to anything involving patents, they just almost never pay any royalties or licensing fees like any other country would. Their work force isn't cheap anymore like it...

    Chinese SMIC Ships 7 nm Chips, Reportedly Copied TSMC's Design

    well just learn that china just does not abide by the same rules as everyone else that's all. should be on paper, but vastly different in reality. i think there is almost 2-3 times more active trade disputes at the WTO against china, than china has against the rest of the world combined, as it...

    Chinese SMIC Ships 7 nm Chips, Reportedly Copied TSMC's Design

    then you obviously have no idea how joint venture works in china. no company can go on its own in china, they HAVE to partner with a Chinese company, and when production is involved (especially of tech china does not have or own) then a certain amount of tech sharing IS REQUIRED. so, they...

    Alienware Unleashes the Ultimate AMD Advantage Laptop and Industry-First 480Hz Display Technology

    even older games... i dont see what would run a whopping 480 fps. i mean even on a good computer CS 1.6 with a 5950x+3090 gets 1400-1500fps, but you need servers with unlocked fps because over 1000 it just bugs out. and cs 1.6 is not old... its old AS FUCK even with my 5600x+6800xt some...

    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti Gets Custom 890 Watt XOC BIOS

    yeah, but we are in a generation. if the refresh high end RX6000 beats the already refresh 3090ti... you know who actually has the best product this gen. now thats benchmarks, in game it a bot different, amd is good, but usually nvidia is slightly better in most games (not all) \ and at this...

    Qualcomm Debuts Wi-Fi 7 Networking Pro Series, Offering Wireless speeds of up to 33.1 Gbps

    That's why nowadays you need to buy a mesh network. Just buy a 3-5 pack at once for your house, it will eliminate most of the loss of 5ghz. If you buy a single router it's really not much for a big surface. i have a Wifi6 mesh with 1000Mbps internet and i can cap my internet speed over...

    Razer Set To Go Private With Delisting from Hong Kong Stock Exchange in May 2022

    yeah I'd disagree on that. i was all in for razer a few years back, had a lot of razer devices, all of them broke fairly fast. can't remember all of them, but i had a naga that had a piece under the left click break, unable to use the mouse after that. another mouse same issue (wasnt a naga...

    Alibaba Previews Home-Grown CPUs with 128 Armv9 Cores, DDR5, and PCIe 5.0 Technology

    what most people here seems to miss is that those CPU are ARM based. so yeah ... They are power efficient. it's basically like the Mac M1-M2 vs the current AMD/Intel. relatively same perf in almost everything at like half the power draw. If anything, the arm cpu are at a point where they can...

    Epic Games Announces The Matrix Awakens: An Unreal Engine 5 Experience

    you obviously have 0 idea that the whole UE5 Matrix thing is ALL in game engine apparently. which is the whole point of the demo, to show how you can blur the lines of pre rendered CGI vs live engine footage. also ... at the end of the scripted part, you can actually play around in their...

    AMD Asks Motherboard Makers to Remove Overclocking Options for Ryzen 7 5800X3D

    good yes, efficient not really. if i set everything on auto the cpu puts 1.4v and does 4.7ghz if i do manually i can get 4.7ghz at 1.270v stable. 1270>1400 is a pretty huge difference when it comes to heat and stability. but i agree that for 90+% of people the auto OC feature will do as...

    Graphics Card Prices at Record Lows, Sweetspot-segment Finally Affordable

    i got my 6800 at 680euro from online store during the middle of the shitshow, while they were around 1000 otherwise. just needed to look hard enough and get some luck.

    ASRock Announces Full Stack Support for Ryzen 7 5800X3D and New 5000/4000 Series Processors

    i own an asrock (b450 fatality) and honestly, it's only been good, running a 5600x that is overclocked at 4.9Ghz never had issues with overclock or stability. at the time it was simply one of the best mini ATX available on the market and at much lower price than any other b450 of that size...

    AMD Ryzen Mobile "Raphael-H" Series Could Pack 16 Cores Based on Zen 4 Architecture

    the blah blah windows 11 gimps perf on AMD is already old news, it was fixed with the latest win 11 release. people should keep informed better and not just watch clickbait titles of tech tuber.

    EU Commission Pushing Forward with Unified Electronics Charger Standard and Unbundling of Chargers

    i like how the writer has opinions. why is standard bad ? well imagine back when they invented electric plugs and every single country (or region in a country) having different plugs how the fuck would manufacturer build electric items if they have to make a model per region just to make sure...
