NVIDIA kicked off its GTC 2022 event this week with a flurry of announcements, highlighted by its Hopper GPU architecture and 144-core Grace CPU Superchip. It was an absolute blitz, in terms of everything unveiled so far. Adding to the pile, NVIDIA is expanding its lineup of workstation GPUs with the RTX A5500 in...

At the heart of every autonomous machine, modern industrial robot, and automated manufacturing apparatus is some form artificial intelligence. These things are amazingly complex, too—not only are there models to train, but there are sensors to interpret and reactions to formulate. NVIDIA has been at the forefront of...

It seems increasingly likely NVIDIA will launch its GeForce RTX 3090 Ti on March 29, some two and a half months after teasing the new flagship consumer graphics card at the Consumer Electronics Show. We don't have any first-hand knowledge of a March 29 launch, but there's plenty of smoke, and you know they say about...

It's been around two months since NVIDIA teased a new flagship graphics card at CES, the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti, so where the heck is it? Last we heard from NVIDIA is that it would be in touch when it has more information to share. Officially, there's nothing new to offer up. Unofficially, however, the new flagship is...

Update (2/24/22):
When we wrote about the NVIDIA RTX LHR Unlocker tool on GitHub yesterday, we noted it came with caveats and red flags (see below). It just didn't sit right that it required downloading custom drivers from the developer, which at best would have meant it likely would have ruled out anything but...

The GeForce RTX 3050 8GB, as we (and everyone else) reviewed it, is based on the GA106-150 GPU. That's a cut-down version of the very same GA106 GPU used in the RTX 3060 and the professional-grade RTX A2000. If that's the case, then why does it come with a PCIe 4.0 x8 interface instead of the x16 interface that those...

Back at CES, NVIDIA announced a flurry of new mobile and desktop GPUs, including a new flagship SKU—the mighty GeForce RTX 3090 Ti. There was not a whole lot of information to share at the time, other than a few TFLOPs numbers and the promise to share more details by the end of the month. It's been about a month and a...

Best Buy restocks are your best chance at scoring a Geforce RTX 30 series graphics card at MSRP, but the latest one carried a $199.99 caveat. That's the price of an annual subscription to Best Buy's Totaltech program, and if you even wanted a chance to bag a Founders Edition card during yesterday's restock, you had to...

There was never any chance the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti would end up with what most gamers would consider an affordable price, but even so, some early retail listings are eliciting double-takes. The most expensive we have seen so far is 633,773 Japanese Yen (right around $5,500 in US currency) for a custom...

One place that has been fairly consistent with hardware restocks is Antonline. As many vendors are apt to do, however, the retailer likes to package hard-to-find tech gear in bundles, essentially forcing you to buy multiple items even if you're only after the main item. And as such, there are now several EVGA GeForce...

NVIDIA’s new mobile GPU, the RTX 3080 Ti, has finally made its way into consumers’ hands. That means we finally get a peek at its GA103 GPU, which turns out to be quite a beast in both size and performance.
The mobile graphics cards introduced this week have a GA103S/GA103M GPU, officially labeled GN20-E8-A1. These...

Both NVIDIA and AMD announced new mainstream GPUs during CES 2022. AMD announced the Radeon RX 6500 XT, which we showed you last week, and NVIDIA the GeForce RTX 3050. NVIDIA also quickly teased a GeForce RTX 3090 Ti during its event, but details regarding that behemoth will be coming a little later. Today, we get to...

One of the many announcements NVIDIA during its CES event was the crowning of a new flagship graphics card, the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti. Not that the regular GeForce RTX 3090 we reviewed last year is long in the tooth by any stretch, but for those who want the fastest consumer GPU on the planet, the Ti model will soon...

It feels like cruel irony that around the time PC gaming began to experience a resurgence, the availability of graphics cards fell by the wayside. The pandemic combined with new product launches (including new generation consoles that essentially run on PC hardware) and a global shortage came in like a perfectly...

Sometimes the leaks and rumors are right on the money. We bring that up because as previously tipped in unofficial circles, NVIDIA today introduced an upgraded version of its GeForce RTX 3080 with more GDDR6X memory on board and a few other goodies. It doesn't appear the card will replace the existing model, but sit...

Looking back at CES week, a whole bunch of companies came ready with wide-ranging product announcements and concepts, including all the big players—AMD, Intel, and NVIDIA among them. But it also appears as though they all left some products unannounced. Like Intel's Core i5-12490F (probably limited to China) and, if...

It didn't take long for EVGA to announce a custom graphics card based on NVIDIA's just-announced GeForce RTX 3050, the latest addition to its growing line of Ampere GPUs. And actually we're looking at two models from EVGA, including the GeForce RTX 3050 XC and LGeForce RTX 3050 XC Black, both in a relatively compact...

There is little to no chance that NVIDIA will unveil its next-generation Ada Lovelace GPU at the Consumer Electronics Show this week, but if past leaks and rumors are accurate, it will arrive later this year. It's also anticipated to bring with it a massive performance uplift. How massive? We won't know until Ada...

After seeing a purportedly unaltered photograph of an ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 3090 Ti graphics card (shown above, click to enlarge), we are more convinced than ever that NVIDIA will be unveiling a new flagship SKU very soon. That's not to say we have any inside information (we don't) or that there's been an...

LG offers some sleek and powerful laptop models, but none that it would consider a true gaming laptop. Until now, that is—LG on Monday added a notebook model to its UltraGear family (model 17G90Q) and has dubbed it the company's "first gaming laptop." And like its nimble Gram laptops, it sports a "seriously sleek...

When or if NVIDIA decides to introduce a refreshed GeForce RTX 3080 with more memory than the original SKU remains to be seen. However, if the upgraded graphics card does come to fruition, it might arrive with a beefier upgrade than just some additional GDDR6X slapped on, according to the latest unofficial rumor mill...

A bevy of product announcements are expected at the Consumer Electronics Show next month, and up until now, it was rumored NVIDIA may use the event to introduce refreshed GeForce RTX 3080 and GeForce RTX 3070 Ti graphics cards. However, there is chatter that NVIDIA may have decided to postpone those cards.
In case...
