GeForce RTX 4090 hits Steam's latest hardware survey hard as Radeon RX 7000 series yet to register an entry

The high price of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card doesn’t seem to have put gamers completely off making a purchase. The powerful board from Team Green is the second-highest monthly mover in Steam’s hardware survey for January 2023. While the RTX 4090 soars, an SKU from the AMD Radeon RX 7000 series has yet to make an appearance.

Preliminary Ryzen 9 7940HS performance figure fails to impress as AMD's flagship "Phoenix" APU trails behind Core i9-12900H

The Ryzen 9 7940HS is AMD’s next-generation Phoenix-HS APU featuring the company’s latest Zen 4 CPU cores and an RDNA 3 iGPU in the form of a Radeon 780M. Rumors had it that the Radeon 780M would be slightly faster, if not equal, than the Radeon 680M. The latest performance showcase from Bilibili makes the Radeon 780M appear measurably ahead of its predecessor.

HP EliteBook 845 G9 laptop review: Also convincing with Ryzen 5 PRO 6650U

89% HP EliteBook 845 G9 laptop review: Also convincing with Ryzen 5 PRO 6650U

Successful in almost every regard. With the EliteBook 845 G9, HP proves that currently AMD need not hide behind Intel anymore at all, but on the contrary: Despite using an efficient Ryzen U or HS CPU, the 14-inch laptop delivers a high performance.

AMD finally compares Radeon RX 7900 XT and Radeon RX 7900 XTX with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 and shares new gaming benchmarks

AMD may have announced the Radeon RX 7900 series a few weeks ago, but it has taken the company until now to reveal how its latest offerings compare against the RTX 4080, NVIDIA's latest Ada Lovelace architecture card. Unsurprisingly, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX offers better value for money than the RTX 4080 while also usurping the performance of the Radeon RX 6950 XT.

"Laughable" RTX 4080 stock levels hinted at launch while the RX 7900 XT and XTX supply could be much better vs the RTX 4090

The RTX 4080 will be up for sale starting today. Compared to the RTX 4090, the latest rumors suggest the GPU is in short supply at major retailers. On the other hand, the RDNA 3-based RX 7900 XT and the RX 7900 XTX are expected to have much better stock compared to the RTX 4090 and the RTX 4080.
