A week ago, Microsoft teased a new update to DirectX 12 for developers that will usher in "a new era of performance and efficiency." Today, we've got more details on what the new 'Work Graphs' entail ...

If your PC doesn’t deliver the desired performance in a particular game, it’s usually—but not always—due to two limiting factors. Either your processor (CPU) or your graphics card (GPU) is ...

Yep, we're talking about CPU bottlenecks again. The B word is one of the scariest things for the average gamer, so much so that people waste too much time on bottleneck calculators without ...

A computer is a lot like an ecosystem. When all its components are functioning in a harmonious balance, a PC can whiz along at top speed, crunching calculations, booting games, and performing other ...

Multi-core processors theoretically can run many threads of code in parallel, but some categories of operation currently bog down attempts to raise overall performance by parallelizing computing. Is ...

Bottleneck calculators are looked upon as useful matchmakers of PC hardware. Ostensibly, they help gamers decide whether certain CPU and GPU components should be shackled together inside their PC ...

It's time we get to explore something we've been eager to investigate since our day-one GeForce RTX 3080 review, and that's the weaker-than-expected resolution scaling of the new Ampere architecture.

Hardware fragmentation remains a persistent bottleneck for deep learning engineers seeking consistent performance.
