As if you needed more incentive to buy an RTX 30-series card, Nvidia announced today that it’s now bundling Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War with select RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 GPUs. A game being packed in with a GPU isn't unusual. But the RTX 3070 launch earlier this week proved that demand for Ampere is still high enough to make the some of the best graphics cards almost impossible to find

SiFive has introduced its first desktop-class motherboard powered by a RISC-V system-on-chip ( SoC ) that's designed for Linux software developers, just as it promised last month. The HiFive Unmatched announced this week is a Mini-ITX platform for desktops and has all the industry-standard PC interfaces that software makers might need now -- and at least a couple of years to come.

Adata has achieved a new feat with the Spectrix D50 Xtreme memory, which the brand recently announced back in September. Xtreme Performance Gear (XPG), Adata's gaming division, has overclocked its memory to DDR4-5300.

The Spectrix D50 Xtreme is only available in DDR4-4800 and DDR4-5000 flavors, but Adata didn't specify which kit it used to hit

Back in July, we wrote that it was a terrible time to buy a graphics card. The new Nvidia Ampere and AMD Big Navi GPUs were coming, the previous gen cards were selling out due to increased COVID-19 fueled demand, so you were effectively getting less GPU for more money. Nearly four months later, guess what: It's still a terrible time to buy a graphics card! Sigh. This is especially true if you're looking at the top of

From live concerts to exclusive movie trailers to cross-branded character skins, Fortnite has risen up in its short lifetime to become a pillar of playable marketing, and now that influence is spreading to AMD hardware as well. The company first jumped on the trend back in September, when you could enter a special code to see a non-interactive render of an RX 6000 series GPU.

Now that Big Navi has officially been announced, though, AMD is expanding that render from

Coming on the heels of AMD's unveiling of its Big Navi-based Radeon RX 6800/6900 family are announcements of graphics cards by its partners. PowerColor, one of AMD's most loyal allies, this week teased its upcoming Red Devil add-in-board (AIBs) powered by the new Navi 21 GPU.

PowerColor's Red Devil graphics cards typically use a custom printed circuit board (PCB) with enhanced voltage regulating module (

The RTX 3070 might be a killer card at $500 , but the price to performance is not its only strength. The 3070's 220W power consumption is greatly appreciated and has allowed Zotac to produce a very compact RTX 3070 called the Twin Edge.

Measuring in at 9.1" by 5.6," the card is tall but very short, allowing it to fit in a variety of cases.
