Seller Starts Retailing GPU Purses And Tries Selling Them At Insane Price Tags By Labeling Them As "Luxury" There isn't every day we see such products pop up in the markets, but in general, the GPU segment has been "quite" creative in the past when it comes to DIY instances. Now, a firm going by the name of GPU Purses has apparently adopted a pretty "awful" business model, which includes using full GPUs and creating […]
ARM is developing its very own dedicated gaming GPU lineup, which is said to compete directly with Intel, AMD, and NVIDIA. ARM Looks To Step Into A Market Dominated By NVIDIA & AMD, Likely Releasing A GPU Architecture For Both AI & Gaming Workloads This development is certainly huge for the markets, given that we haven't seen a new competitor disrupting the market share established by AMD and NVIDIA. The news comes from The Globes, citing sources familiar with the matter. It is disclosed that ARM has employed one hundred different chip and software development engineers at a facility in […]
NVIDIA's open-source Linux kernel drivers have matured to the point that they offer performance equivalent to their own proprietary GPU drivers. NVIDIA Linux driver 555.58 offers great optimizations, enhancing the performance of RTX GPUs NVIDIA's open-source Linux kernel driver has improved drastically over the past two years with now being on par with proprietary drivers when it comes to performance of the RTX Turing-based GPUs and up. The latest 555 driver series has particularly offered immense optimizations for the RTX GPUs, with its 555.58 currently being the best driver released up until now. Phoronix recently tested the 555.58 Linux kernel […]
Igor's Lab has conducted an in-depth test across various GPUs and their thermal compounds, pointing out that it's the poor thermal paste quality that leads to higher temperatures after a certain period. Several "Premium Priced" GPUs Come Applied With Poor Quality Thermal Paste Leading To Drastic Rise In Temperatures After A Certain Period of Time In a new find, it is confirmed that the real reason for the incredibly high temperature of modern-day GPUs is due to the usage of poor quality thermal paste by the AIBs. Thanks to Igor's Lab, the culprit behind the common problem many GPUs were […]
