The APEX 15 / 17 models as well as a new 16-inch CORE laptop are scheduled to receive the AMD Phoenix treatment with a Ryzen 7 7840HS APU later this summer. However, even though the integrated Radeon 780M GPU is already good enough for 1080p gaming, XMG cannot eliminate the dGPU options.

After releasing the RX 7600 and the RTX 4060 Ti, AMD and NVIDIA are expected to follow the boards up with more cost-effective cards such as the RX 7500, and the RTX 4050. Per a new report by RedGamingTech, the RX 7500 and the RTX 4050 could have multiple SKUs differentiated solely by the amount of VRAM and the resulting lower MSRPs.

The system on display at Computex '23 is drawing 660 W of power including the storage components. Streacom makes use of a new approach to cooling that combines traditional heat pipes with AIO closed loops, but does not require an active pump.

NVIDIA released the RTX 4060 Ti on May 24 to a generally cold reception. According to various reports, consumer interest in the GPU was quite low and much of it could be due to the bad launch reviews. 3DCenter has now published a launch review roundup of the board alongside the AMD Radeon RX 7600.

CheckBack The Asus Eee PC VX6 Lamborghini edition was a highly portable and highly affordable, yet premium-looking laptop with a 12.1-inch screen. It had a lot of strengths and few weak points; much like it often is with entry-level and mid-range laptops, it was the screen that attracted the majority of angry comments.

Arriving less than a week after its predecessor, the Nvidia GeForce Game Ready Driver 535.98 software package brings day-1 support for DLSS 3 and Reflex in Diablo IV, as well as DLSS 2 optimizations for the Unreal Engine 4-based remake of System Shock. However, there are no other changes mentioned.

Gigabyte is back with its latest Aorus Gaming Box and this time it is loaded with the might Nvidia RTX 4090 GPU. As in the past, the eGPU connects over Thunderbolt 3 and can transform any laptop into a graphics powerhouse.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang talks about a possible collaboration with Intel in an effort to diversify production venues and alleviate supply chain issues rising with the escalating tensions between the US, China and Taiwan.

It appears AMD’s bet of reducing the price of the RX 7600 mere days before the press reviews went live seems to have worked as the newest report from Moore’s Law Is Dead claims that the RDNA 3 GPU outsold Team Green’s mid-ranger at launch. Per the leaker’s sources, the RTX 4060 Ti appears "to have sold 1/10th as well as the RTX 4070 did on its launch week".

Although Asus skipped giving the RTX 3000 series this treatment, the ROG Matrix custom video card design is back with a metal liquid-cooled Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090. The card sports a thick 360 mm radiator with three 12 cm fans and also marks the first use of indirect Aura Lighting. Sadly, sales will kick off in the third quarter.

ASUS is reportedly preparing a new line of RTX 40 GPUs without any traditional power connectors. The GPUs will instead rely on a proprietary interface that slots in and draws all power from the motherboard.

Introduced at the end of June 2021, the Zotac Gaming GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Twin Edge OC LHR video card reached its highest Amazon price of US$669.99 at the end of March 2022. Now, a 29% discount is keeping it at the lowest price until now, so those interested can grab it for a tempting US$377.99 (Camelcamelcamel reveals an average price of US$449.04).

After getting roasted by reviewers, the RTX 4060 Ti and the RX 7600 GPUs are also getting abandoned by gamers if the newest report from 3DCenter is any indication. Per 3DCenter, the RTX 4060 Ti and the RX 7600 has had an extremely slow launch day on MindFactory compared to the RTX 4070 Ti and the RTX 4070 that also went on sale this year.

Acer has introduced the Predator Triton 16 in addition to the previously announced Triton 14 and Triton 17 X variants. The Predator Triton 16 offers Intel 13th gen Raptor Lake-H CPU options and the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU together with a 240 Hz 1600p IPS G-Sync display. Acer uses liquid metal as the thermal interface material for the CPU.

Despite its very recent release, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB graphics card has reportedly already been subject to a price cut by one retailer. In addition, it appears the RTX 4060 Ti has also been spurned in the key Japanese market with sales looking lethargic at the moment. The current SKU comes with just 8 GB of VRAM, with a 16 GB variant planned for a July launch.

The new driver package released by Nvidia yesterday delivers full support for the new GeForce RTX 4060 Ti GPU alongside DLSS 3, Reflex, ray tracing, and other optimizations for The Lord of the Rings: Gollum, a title that launches today.

Now, thanks to a generous 33% discount, it can be acquired for US$1,999.99 instead of US$2,999.99.

The RTX 4060 Ti is the direct successor to the RTX 3060 Ti. Although the Lovelace GPU offers a meaningful bump in rasterization performance at 1080p, it reportedly fails to provide a decent enough pure rasterization performance uplift at high resolutions like 1440p and 4K owing to a few questionable decisions by NVIDIA like the narrow bus width.

The RTX 4060 Ti is now up for sale at an MSRP of US$400. However, per the latest information from Moore’s Law Is Dead, the sales of the GPU could be very low based on pre-launch data from the leaker’s retail sources. Furthermore, the RTX 4060 Ti stock at launch is reportedly similar to the RTX 4080 launch supply.

According to the latest report from 3DCenter based on TechEpiphany’s analysis of GPU sales on German retailer MindFactory, board sales have reached a new yearly low after dropping for the 5th consecutive week. Sales in the 20th week of 2023 declined by a troubling 53% since the 15th week.

Path tracing is significantly more taxing even on high-end RTX 4000 GPUs compared to traditional ray tracing methods. Nvidia's real-time neural radiance caching for path tracing is designed to solve the severe performance hit. This new AI-accelerated method has been in development for a couple of years now and the first implementation could soon be featured in the Cyberpunk 2077 expansion Phantom Liberty.

Medion's gaming laptop offers a well-rounded level of equipment: Core i7, RTX 4050, 16 GB of RAM, 1-TB SSD, and 144-Hz display. If you set it up right, the laptop allows for gaming with a low noise development. The whole package is available for about 1,500 Euros (~$1,658).

PNY has confirmed that it has integrated the latest RTX 4000 graphics into new XLR8 Gaming VERTO RGB- and VERTO-series cards. The two new lines will support both the 4060 and 4060 Ti between them, in sizes of 8GB as well as 16GB. Their release will start with those of the Ti 8GB variety later in May 2023.

With the latest Memorial Day deals, HP is offering an RTX 4060-powered Victus for just over US$1,200. This is the 16.1-inch model with 1080p 144 Hz IPS screen, 16 GB DDR5-5200 RAM and 512 GB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD storage.

Colorful, Inno3D, Gainward, Palit and Zotac have revealed their small form-factor RTX 4060 GPUs. The cards are at most 17 cm in length and occupy only two slots, making them ideal for mini-ITX HTPC / 1080p gaming builds.

A new China-exclusive ThinkPad laptop has appeared. The new Lenovo ThinkPad T14p is a rebrand of last year's Lenovo ThinkPad Neo 14, equipped with the newest Intel CPUs and Nvidia GPUs - and the more prestigious ThinkPad T series name.

The RTX 4070 might not be a hot seller. Citing supply chain sources, ITHome explains that the RTX 4070 is selling well below expectations which is why Team Green is expected to extend the current supply halt into June.

Introduced at the end of October 2020 with a list price of US$499 for the reference design, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 can be considered an outdated, yet still capable (in some scenarios) video card. The 31% discount on the Asus Dual V2 OC Edition of this card brings it from US$579.99 to US$399.99.

Nvidia, today, made the RTX 4060 series official. The RTX 4060 series is comprised of three SKUs — RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB, RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB, and the RTX 4060. The RTX 4060 Ti sports a 32 MB L2 cache for an effective 554 GB/s bandwidth and is rated at a 160 W TGP. Pricing starts from US$299 for the RTX 4060, which puts doubts on whether we will get to see an RTX 4050 after all.

The GeForce RTX 4060 is on the horizon, with NVIDIA also set to release two RTX 4060 Ti models soon. In the meantime, initial performance numbers for the RTX 4060 have emerged, pitting the AD107-based graphics card against the RTX 2060 and RTX 3060. Official RTX 4060 specifications have surfaced too.

NVIDIA is on the verge of launching the RTX 4060 Ti series, consisting of 8 GB and 16 GB VRAM variants. While US$100 will separate the pair, they will feature the same GPU, memory subsystem and TGP.

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB scores 146,10 and 144,910 points in Geekbench's CUDA benchmark. It packs 4,325 CUDA cores and has a boost clock of 2.54 GHz. Nvidia is expected to announce the graphics card later this month.

This discounted configuration also includes 16 GB of DDR5-5200 RAM, 512 GB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD storage and a 15.6-inch IPS screen with 1080p resolution and 144 Hz refresh rate. As a bonus, Lenovo is throwing in a 3-month Xbox game pass.

It appears GPU sales in the German market are experiencing a considerable slowdown. According to TechEpiphany’s data compiled by 3DCenter, MindFactory’s total GPU unit volume of the 19th week of 2023 came in at 2,775 which represents a 22% decline compared to the 2022 annual average and a stark 38% fall vs the 15th week of the current year.

Although the discount to US$2,999 may still feel steep for an RTX 4070 laptop, the XPS 17 does include premium features like a 17-inch 4K touchscreen, quad-speaker setup and a sturdy chassis made of CNC machined aluminum and carbon fiber. This configuration also packs 32 GB of DDR5-4800 RAM and 1 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD storage.

Jensen Huang received compensation for his role as Nvidia president and CEO totaling US$21.356 million for Fiscal 2023. Astonishingly, the executive could have actually earned almost US$25 million if Team Green had met all its sales targets for the year. However, a “tough 2022” meant that Huang had to settle for a few dollars less.

VideoCardz claims to have obtained more information about the forthcoming GeForce RTX 4060 Ti. Purportedly, NVIDIA plans to bring an abundance of VRAM to its next mid-range graphics card, which will also be joined with a TGP bump.

Lenovo's 14-inch Yoga Pro 7 subnotebook is optionally available with the fast GeForce RTX 4050, with which you can run all the latest games smoothly in 1080p on a 120 Hz screen. At the same time, the fantastic IPS panel scores with P3 coverage and accurate colors.

Nvidia's next gen RTX 50 Blackwell with purported 144 SMs isn't reaching ambitious performance gains in internal testing, according to latest rumors. Apparently, Blackwell's performance gains vis-à-vis AD102 are in the range of what we've seen from Pascal to Turing, but Nvidia wants more. This could imply that Nvidia might go for higher SMs counts with GB102 and possibly even a multi-chip module architecture similar to the purported GB100 datacenter GPU.

According to a recent report by 3DCenter, consumers are seemingly moving away from buying GPUs with 8 GB RAM as users are apparently choosing cards with more than 8 GB of memory. 3DCenter’s analysis is based on the sales data collected by TechEpiphany from German retailer MindFactory.

A new leak says the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti will launch in two models, one with 8 GB VRAM and the other with 16 GB. The former is expected to hit shelves in May, while the latter goes on sale in July.
