In this GPU analysis, we look back across the last 4 generations of graphics cards to illustrate exactly why this generation has underperformed – and by how much – showing what each GPU should have cost.
Gone are the days when the sole function for a graphics chip were, graphics. Let's explore how the GPU evolved from a modest pixel pusher into a blazing powerhouse of floating-point computation.
A lot has been said about 8GB GPUs over the past year, in part thanks to our own testing. In comparing 4GB vs 8GB VRAM we hope to get a glimpse into the future dynamics between 8GB and 16GB configurations.
This is not the first time we're testing AMD's Radeon RX 7900 GRE (Golden Rabbit). That actually happened 6 months ago, but this is the first time you can actually buy it, and at a much lower price.
For the return of our monthly GPU pricing updates, we took a short break to review the newcomers and see where everything settled. We're in store for a bumper episode as there's much to discuss.
Having reviewed the Nvidia RTX 4090 Laptop GPU and taken a comprehensive look at how it fares in the laptop market, let's see how it compares against the similarly-named but much more powerful RTX 4090 desktop part.
