It occupies four expansion slots Another video card with a Noctua cooler has appeared on the market. And she’s incredibly fat again. Sycom introduced the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Silent Master, which received Noctua fans. As you can see in the photo, without fans this is a two-slot adapter, but with them it already takes up four slots. Actually, there are simply no high-performance models with Noctua fans (at least for three expansion slots), although the same Sycom previously released a two-slot RTX 4060 Ti . GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Silent Master presented with Noctua fans Like the lower-end cards, the new product uses Noctua […]

GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Silent Master presented with Noctua fans Like the lower-end cards, the new product uses Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM fans and a special frame for mounting them, developed by Nagao. As the name implies, the new product should stand out primarily for its quiet operation. Compared to the MSI model, according to Sycom's own measurements, the noise level is much lower: 43.6 versus 55.1 dB. Temperatures are also lower, but not as significantly: 74.5 versus 79.3 degrees.

Many cards are created from used adapters In China, a full-fledged hunt has begun for video cards that can at least somehow be turned into accelerators for AI. We have already talked about redesigning the RTX 4090 and RTX 3090 , but the Chinese went further and began to add memory to even less powerful adapters. The companies involved began creating versions of 3D maps that had never been released. For example, GeForce RTX 3080 with 20 GB of memory and even Radeon RX 580 with 16 GB. The second one by modern standards and especially by the standards of accelerators for AI is very weak, but […]

Many cards are created from used adapters In China, a full-fledged hunt has begun for video cards that can at least somehow be turned into accelerators for AI. We have already talked about redesigning the RTX 4090 and RTX 3090 , but the Chinese went further and began to add memory to even less powerful adapters.  [caption id="attachment_84870" align="aligncenter" width="780"] RTX 3080 20GB and Radeon RX 580[/caption] The companies involved began creating versions of 3D maps that had never been released. For example, GeForce RTX 3080 with 20 GB of memory and even Radeon RX 580 with 16 GB. The second one by modern standards and especially by the standards of accelerators for AI is very weak, but in some scenarios it is not performance that is more important, but the amount of memory.

To ensure stability and safety during high-power charging, the Red Magic 8 Pro series uses charge sharing technology to avoid heating in one area and reduce temperature rise with three parallel streams. [caption id="attachment_83839" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Red Magic 9 Pro[/caption] A unique flagship with a “flat” camera and a screen without cutouts In terms of battery life, the Red Magic 9 Pro series packs a large 6500mAh battery in an 8.9mm thick body. The official claims that "total battery life exceeds 2 days and 2 nights." The back of the Red Magic 9 Pro uses exclusive custom-made integrated Red Magic glass, which is processed through 15 processes to achieve a seamless design of the body back glass and lens glass without any protrusions or recesses for the camera. The front panel is also hole-free thanks to the in-display camera. Earlier it became known that the smartphone became the fastest in the AnTuTu benchmark .

[caption id="attachment_83234" align="aligncenter" width="450"] Red Magic 9 Pro[/caption] Red Magic 9 Pro will be presented in Beijing on November 23. The smartphone will be the world's first model on Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 with a flat rear panel (the camera will not protrude beyond it at all) and a “clean” screen (that is, without cutouts - with an under-screen front camera).

In games the situation should be slightly different The Radeon RX 7900M mobile video card, which is AMD’s only top mobile solution, managed to outperform the mobile GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop in the first test. Unfortunately, this is not a game, but a Geekbench Vulkan benchmark. The new product scored more than 171,000 points, while the Nvidia flagship shows a result of about 157,000 points. There is no point in directly projecting these results onto games. But it’s still worth noting that if we compare the desktop RX 7900 XTX and RTX 4090, the latter is still faster, although not as much […]

There is no point in directly projecting these results onto games. But it’s still worth noting that if we compare the desktop RX 7900 XTX and RTX 4090, the latter is still faster, although not as much as in 4K games. So, perhaps, in reality, the Radeon RX 7900M will be close to the RTX 4090 Laptop in gaming tasks. Radeon RX 7900M managed to significantly outperform the GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop [caption id="attachment_82815" align="aligncenter" width="646"] Radeon RX 7900M[/caption] If we talk about the OpenCL test, here, on the contrary, the Nvidia flagship is much faster: almost 190,000 points versus almost 159,000 points. However, if we look again at the comparison of desktop adapters, in this test the RX 7900 XTX, which in reality is usually a little faster than the RTX 4080, is inferior even to the RTX 4070 Ti, so the OpenCL result cannot exactly be transferred to games.

This is about the same level as the Radeon 780M Intel Meteor Lake processors can take away the title of the most powerful iGPU in the segment from the Ryzen 7000. We heard this from various sources, and now we can try to confirm or refute it, based on the first tests. The Core Ultra 7 155H processor containing the top-end iGpU with 8 Xe cores has been tested on Geekbench. This is far from the best GPU test, but it’s worth remembering that the graphics core in Meteor Lake is based on the same architecture as the current Arc Alchemist graphics […]

[caption id="attachment_82740" align="aligncenter" width="780"] GTX 1650 Ti[/caption] The Core Ultra 7 155H processor containing the top-end iGpU with 8 Xe cores has been tested on Geekbench. This is far from the best GPU test, but it's worth remembering that the graphics core in Meteor Lake is based on the same architecture as the current Arc Alchemist graphics cards. And these are opportunities for a more interesting comparison. Not even close to the GTX 1650 Ti yet. [caption id="attachment_82741" align="aligncenter" width="780"] GTX 1650 Ti[/caption] So, the new CPU scores 27,249 points in the OpenCL test. It is most correct to compare with Intel Arc, and here we can note that the mobile Arc A350M scores 26,580 points, that is, almost the same. If we try to find any comparisons of the participants we are interested in, it turns out that the Radeon 780M is approximately at the same level. Yes, specifically in OpenCL it is much faster, but in games it is about the same as the Arc A350M. So, it's not even clear yet whether the Meteor Lake iGPU will be able to beat the Radeon 780M, let alone beat the GTX 1650 Ti and get closer to the 35W RTX 3050 Laptop, as some leaks have claimed. However, full-fledged tests will put everything in its place.

[caption id="attachment_82146" align="aligncenter" width="780"] GeForce RTX 4070[/caption] The Radeon RX 7800 XT sells almost twice as much in Germany as the GeForce RTX 4070. In just a week, the retailer sold 1,990 AMD video cards, 1,585 Nvidia video cards and only 40 Intel video cards. Despite the meager sales of the “blue”, Intel secured 1.11% of the market - for the first time the share exceeded 1%. It is interesting that Intel does not have a clear leader: 20 copies of Arc A770 and Arc A380 were sold in a week. [caption id="attachment_82147" align="aligncenter" width="174"] GeForce RTX 4070[/caption] The top 3 specific models look like this: first place - MSI GeForce RTX 3060 Ventus 2X OC, second place - Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4070 Windforce OC, third place - PowerColor Radeon RX 7800 XT Red Devil.
