At CES 2026, AMD spoke about ROCm 7.2.2 as its next client-facing update, with added support for Ryzen AI 400 “Gorgon Point” processors. One slide also labels ROCm 7.2 as a common release for both Linux and Windows. Of course this shouldn’t come as a surpirse given that Ryzen 300 series is already supported and 400 series are nothing but a refresh.
For AMD, however
Mysteriously absent from the CES 2026 product announcement list, the dual 3D V-Cache CPU is said to be coming. AMD has now confirmed this to a small group of journalists yesterday.
Hours before the launch, after seeing the presentation, we assumed AMD was not mentioning the SKU for a reason. We expected it would be announced in a “one last thing” fashion, like GPU and CPU
ASUS has revealed the GeForce RTX 5090 ProArt, a 2.5-slot partner card built around the same double flow-through concept used on the RTX 5090 Founders Edition. NVIDIA says this double flow-through approach is now showing up in board-partner designs, not just the Founders Edition cards.
The ProArt model is also tied to NVIDIA’s Founders Edition-style multi-PCB layout, which is typically used to support that airflow
DLSS Swapper is a small utility that lets you swap upscaler DLLs on a per-game basis, so you can test newer or older versions without waiting for game updates. It’s worth remembering that despite the name, it also handles AMD FSR and Intel XeSS, so one tool can manage multiple upscalers across your library. That still matters when games ship with outdated DLLs, or when you want consistent behavior across titles.
DLSS updates
Added DLSS 4.5 (
In case you are not familiar with NVIDIA RTX Remix, it’s is a modding platform for remastering older PC games that use DirectX 8 or DirectX 9. It focuses on upgrading visuals by swapping in new materials and assets, then relighting the scene with path tracing while the game is running.
RTX Remix is split into a Runtime and a Toolkit. The Runtime sits alongside the game and intercepts rendering so it can capture scenes, replace selected assets, and output a
AMD used its CES 2026 briefing to confirm that Ryzen AI 400 will not stay a laptop-only label. The company said the Ryzen AI 400 family will also power “socketed desktops,” bringing Copilot+ class NPUs to desktop PCs.
Under the hood, this points to a desktop APU refresh that lines up with the mobile Ryzen AI 400 “Gorgon Point” parts. AMD describes Ryzen AI 400 as a 4 nm
NVIDIA’s DLSS 4.5 rollout is turning a quiet driver-level toggle into a small mess of letters, and early testing suggests those letters can swing both performance and VRAM use depending on the GPU generation.
There are Reddit threads that focus on “DLSS Override” controls inside the NVIDIA App beta, where users can force DLSS Super Resolution model presets per game. The short version: “Latest” now forces preset M , and that is not the same thing as “set and
Pegatron and Schenker Technologies brought a new 16-inch laptop concept to CES 2026 with Intel on board. The reference system is called “M16P,” and Schenker says the retail version for Europe will ship as the SCHENKER ELEMENT 16.
The pitch is repair-first hardware with a semi-modular layout. A screwless quick-release bottom panel is meant to make access simple
First RDNA4 eGPU it seems.
If it ships as described, this would be a shift from ONEXPLAYER’s earlier ONEXGPU line, which has leaned on RDNA 3 mobile parts like the Radeon RX 7600M XT in the original ONEXGPU and the Radeon RX 7800M in ONEXGPU 2.
ONEXGPU 3 will use the Navi 48 XT-based RX 9070 XT, listing 4096 stream processors , 16
ASUS is expanding its AM5 lineup with the ROG Crosshair X870E Glacial and ROG Crosshair X870E Dark Hero, plus more ROG Strix Neo boards on X870E and B850.
The Crosshair X870E Glacial is the flagship, built around a 24(110A)+2(11
