NVIDIA GeForce 527.37 WHQL driver - tech
(hx) 11:34 PM CET - Dec,04 2022 - Post a comment
NVIDIA has released the latest version of its GeForce Game Ready software. Version 527.37 WHQL comes with day-zero optimization for "Marvel's Midnight Sons," and "Need for Speed Unbound." Among the handful issues fixed with this release is the previous 526.98 driver failing to install on "certain" RTX 3060 Ti graphics cards, meaning that this card introduces official support for the RTX 3060 Ti with GDDR6X memory. MSI Afterburner not prioritizing GPU temperature over power when selected in the app, has been fixed. Screen flickering observed with the TikTok Broadcasting tool has been fixed. Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition showing some random screen-flashing with RTX 40-series graphics cards has been fixed. Background apps randomly displaying a shift in color saturation has been fixed.
Game Ready

This new Game Ready Driver provides the best day-0 gaming experience for the latest new games including Marvel's Midnight Suns featuring NVIDIA DLSS 2 and advanced ray tracing effects. Additionally, this Game Ready Driver supports the launch of Need for Speed Unbound which utilizes NVIDIA DLSS 3 technology.
New Games Supported By GeForce Experience's Optimal Settings

Nvidia RTX 4090 now requires BIOS update to fix NFS Unbound - tech
(d@rkfu) 05:36 PM CET - Dec,02 2022 - Post a comment / read (3)
It is probably fair to say that the GeForce RTX 4000 series launch hasn't exactly been smooth sailing for Nvidia. First, we had the issue of melting 12-pin power connectors on the RTX 4090 which is sure to leave affected users displeased. Secondly, Nvidia is seemingly having a hard time selling its RTX 4080 due to its high MSRP of $1,199, which has landed it very close to the much better $1,599 RTX 4090. Consequently, 4080 scalpers are apparently unable to get rid of the cards they bought in early as there is an abundance of these cards. And these are besides the Windows 11 22H2-related problems, even though this one lies mostly on Microsoft. Now, a new issue is plaguing Nvidia RTX 4090 cards where Need for Speed Unbound players have reported flashing and blinking screens. After investigating, EA's Global Community Manager, Jeff Braddock, published a fix for the bug, whereby users are required to do a VGA BIOS (vBIOS) update on their 4090.
We've seen reports of Flashing/Blinking Display issues with folks on high-end PCs (Nvidia RTX 4090). After testing, we've found a workaround/fix is to upgrade the bios on the 4090 video card.

You will need to download the NVIDIA GPU UEFI Firmware Update tool, run it and then follow the onscreen directions. Once complete, you should be able to play without having the issue reoccur.
You can find the Nvidia GPU UEFI Firmware tool on Nvidia's website here. If you want to do it another way, you can find the necessary standalone vBIOS on TechPowerUp's website here.

That's really an anti-consumer move from Nvidia. One might even confuse the RTX 3060 8GB Edition with the RTX 3060 Ti 8GB.

The 3Dfx Voodoo 2 - Taking 3D to the Next Level! - tech
(hx) 10:21 PM CET - Dec,01 2022 - Post a comment / read (5)
The original 3Dfx Voodoo Graphics accelerator completely transformed the world of 3D gaming, but by late 1997 the competition was beginning to heat up. How do you improve on such a legendary card? You double down on EVERYTHING. The Voodoo 2 improves upon the original in pretty much every way and even allows two cards to work together in SLI for truly next-level 3D performance.

Who else remembers this? :-) I remember very well my first Voodoo 2 card and Unreal 2. It was a similar experience to the first time I heard music playing from a CD player! Just the Wow effect, just got you sitting on your ass. When was the last time you had a Wow effect/feeling and from what? Let me know!

Windows 10 vs Windows 11 has been an ongoing debate on which is better, but Windows 11 has finally ironed out a lot of the bugs that it initially had in 2021, though in 2022 it has improved all the problems, bar a few. And it is honestly to the stage where it is worth the switch, especially if you take advantage of HDR.

Best CPUs of 2022 (Intel vs. AMD): Gaming, Video Editing - tech
(hx) 07:35 PM CET - Nov,24 2022 - Post a comment / read (1)
In this video, we're looking at the Best CPUs of 2022, including the top CPUs for gaming, Adobe Premiere, Photoshop, compression & decompression, and the best CPUs for programming and code compile. These Intel vs. AMD benchmarks also test the AMD Ryzen 7000 series against the existing Ryzen 5000 series, like the 5800X3D, and the older Intel 12100F and 10100. All the new CPUs that just came out were recently benchmarked for our reviews, so we can now review them for people building new gaming PCs (or workstations) for the end of the year. Common match-ups include the AMD R9 7950X vs. Intel i9-13900K, AMD R5 7600X vs. Intel i5-13600K, and more. We'll also talk about the temporary price drops for Black Friday & Cyber Monday and how that impacts rankings (but those came out right before we rendered the video!).

The Intel Core i7-13700K CPU review & benchmarks finally arrived, following-up our Intel i5-13600K and i9-13900K CPU reviews to give a full comparison of the Intel options. We had this one in the pipeline for a while, but kept getting delayed by other content (mostly the 12VHPWR cable research on the RTX 4090 -- but that's done now!). This review and benchmark of the Intel i7-13700K tests it vs. the 13600K, 13900K, AMD Ryzen 7 7700X, R5 7600X, and more. We'll also look at how it compares to the previous generation of Intel parts.

We're talking with one of AMD's leading engineers (Sam Naffziger) about RDNA3 GPU design and challenges with going to chiplets for a GPU. We only had about 15 minutes to cover the highlights, so we focused mostly on the differences between chiplets on Zen CPUs and RDNA3 GPUs. This gives a unique insight into the architecture of AMD's next attempt at another "Zen moment," this time with its graphics division.

NVIDIA Responds to Melting Cables, Warranty Concerns - tech
(hx) 12:10 AM CET - Nov,19 2022 - Post a comment / read (1)
NVIDIA has responded to the RTX 4090 12-pin power cable concerns pertaining to melting / burned 12VHPWR cables. The company has provided a statement on the situation, given a failure quantity, and has commented that it will be replacing all affected units under warranty. GN was able to source new information from board partners pertaining to NVIDIA sales count and, using this new 50-unit number provided by NVIDIA, we can now get an accurate range for failure rate. We also talk about how to properly install an NVIDIA RTX 4090 or RTX 4080 and how to properly connect its power cable. The tutorial at the end shows correct 12VHPWR (12-pin, "16-pin") cable installation for these GPUs.

NVIDIA GeForce 526.98 WHQL Drivers - tech
(hx) 12:56 AM CET - Nov,17 2022 - Post a comment
NVIDIA today released the latest GeForce Game Ready software. Version 526.98 WHQL adds official support for the GeForce RTX 4080 graphics card launched earlier this week. It also adds optimization for "Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales," "Warhammer 40,0000: Darktide," the latest patch update for "WRC Generations," and "World of Warcraft: Dragonflight." It adds DLSS 3 support for the latest "Spider-Man" title, as well as DLAA support for "Monster Hunter Rise." The drivers also introduce official support for DirectStorage 1.1 API, as well as RTX-IO support for Vulkan. This way, even Vulkan API-based games can enjoy GPU-accelerated game asset decompression, speeding up game loading times.

DLSS 3 is now made to get along with VSYNC On G-SYNC and G-SYNC Compatible Monitors & TVs. The new HDR10+ Gaming standard is now implemented. Among the issues fixed with this driver release are a game crash with "Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection," on GTX 10-series GPUs, application crashes with Daz Studio and Maxon Cinema 4D; and minor quirks with Fujitsu Siemens SL23T-1, and the G-SYNC logo not displaying with LG OLED TVs that support it.

NVIDIA's Lost It: RTX 4080 16GB GPU Review & Benchmarks - tech
(hx) 12:17 AM CET - Nov,16 2022 - Post a comment / read (2)
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 16GB video card provides a firm visual definition of the word "disappointing," mostly because its performance does climb from the RTX 3080 in meaningful ways, but the price climbs in lock-step. This leaves the 4080 simply stagnating versus the RTX 3080 while pulling the ladder up further on GPU prices. Older RX 6950 XT and RTX 3080 GPUs at lower prices further sap the value of the RTX 4080 16GB, not to mention the weird misstep of launch-unlaunching the RTX 4080 12GB (a different model).
