Modder Doubles GeForce GTX 1650’s VRAM To 8 GB With A Simple Chip Swap, Nearly Doubling Benchmark Scores
It was an easy task to upgrade the VRAM on the card, but only TU106-based GTX 1650 can be upgraded.
One of the easiest ways many modders can improve performance is through shunt modding, or by adding more VRAM modules to the GPU's PCB. Adding VRAM modules generally requires some firmware modifications and may or may not be supported by the GPU chip. However, it becomes an easy task when all you have to do is swap the existing memory modules for higher-
CD Projekt RED CEO Admits Cyberpunk 2077’s Redemption Arc Isn’t Complete, but Hopes The Witcher 4 Wins Back Fans
CD Projekt RED famously suffered a major hit to its sterling reputation with the launch of Cyberpunk 2077 , mainly because of the major bugs and terribly underwhelming console performance on previous-generation hardware, which forced Sony to remove the game from the PlayStation Store until it was fixed a few months later .
The Polish studio worked very hard to resolve all these technical issues and further improve the game's features and content, culminating in the release of Update 2.0 and the Phantom Liberty expansion , both of which

The company has decided to restore the memory encryption feature on consumer Ryzen CPUs after the backlash.
AMD recently removed the TSME aka Transparent Secure Memory Encryption feature from the mainstream consumer Ryzen processors.

The ARM-based ecosystem has been graced by another entrant in the form of NVIDIA’s RTX Spark , and with its arrival in laptops this fall, Qualcomm and Apple should feel a little hint of worry, mainly in one category, because they have had years to address a problem existing in these notebook SoCs and have failed to do so. Well, the clock is ticking for these two companies.
Before the arrival of RTX Spark, having heaps of memory was an Achilles Heel for desktop and laptop GPUs when running

The Gate Must Stand Review – Break Down the Walls
Normally, when writing a review - or almost anything - I would start with a little blurb or story. Maybe it's about the genre, maybe the developer, maybe it's just some random anecdote that the game has made me think of. With The Gate Must Stand, I've got nothing. Possibly something about the Matt Damon film The Great Wall . Why? Because there's a wall in it. That's about it. Anyway, after that random detour to a
