Featured Announcement

AMD has been working on FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) for quite some time now. Now, Radeon's open source alternative to Nvidia's DLSS is ready to go, promising up to 2.5x higher performance in some titles...

The results are in - here are the winners of the EHA Awards 2021...

At this point, leakers all seem to be in agreement that the RTX 3080 Ti and RTX 3070 Ti will be announced later this month, but when will the first cards be available to buy? According to sources, the RTX 3080 Ti will be hitting the market in the first week of June...

SSDs are known to significantly outclass HDDs in terms of performance, but Seagate has been developing a new technology to close the gap a bit. Named Mach.2, this new technology features a dual-actuator and two HDDs working simultaneously to deliver a level of performance similar to a SATA SSD.

Following the rumour about an incoming refresh of the Ryzen 5000 series, AMD made a statement confirming its existence and detailing a bit more about them. Unfortunately, it won't be the kind of refresh we hoped for, as it won't bring any performance improvement.

Yesterday, Nvidia confirmed that it is releasing 'Lite Hash Rate' versions of the RTX 3080, RTX 3070 and RTX 3060 Ti with anti-mining measures in place. Some more information has since come to light - LHR versions of these GPUs will be shipping to third-party board partners only, meaning we won't be getting LHR 'Founders Edition' cards. 

Back in February ahead of the launch of the RTX 3060, Nvidia announced its new anti-mining measures to make GeForce graphics cards less desirable to crypto mining farms. We've heard through leaks and rumours that this tech would eventually transition over to the rest of the RTX 30 series line-up and today, Nvidia is making that official.

KitGuru is hiring! If you’ve ever wanted the chance to review PC gear, then read on! We are looking for a new peripherals reviewer to join the team, covering mice, keyboards, headsets etc. Prior experience is not strictly necessary, but we would like to see some example works from applicants...

At KitGuru we focus on technology and for obvious reasons we try to avoid politics, religion and mention of the pandemic. In today's episode of Leo Says we have pushed our editorial limits with a video about Taiwan that discusses the importance of TSMC and the peculiar way that Taiwan is diplomatically ignored by almost every nation on the planet...

AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT and Radeon RX 6600 SKUs have been recently spotted on an EEC listing filed by ASRock. Although this isn't the first listing mentioning the Radeon RX 6600 XT, it's the first one showing the Radeon RX 6600...

Following on from several leaks earlier this year, Nvidia is launching the RTX 3050 Ti and RTX 3050 laptop GPUs today. RTX 3050 series laptops will start at $799 and deliver up to 2x the performance compared to the previous generation GTX 1650 Ti. 

AMD's flagship RDNA 2 GPUs have been out for a while now, which means it is time to start looking ahead to the next generation. AMD is currently working on its RDNA 3 GPU architecture, and according to early leaks, we can expect at least a 40% performance improvement. 

Intel's upcoming Xe DG2 GPUs were recently revealed to be "right around the corner" and now, we have some early information on what to expect, with new reports indicating that the first DG2 GPUs will arrive in Alder Lake-P powered laptops later this year...

KitGuru was recently able to sit down with Frank Azor, Chief Architect of Gaming Solutions at AMD. We spoke about the unique position AMD is in as both a CPU and GPU manufacturer and how the company can use that to its advantage, with features like Smart Access Memory and SmartShift. We also get the latest update on the company's highly anticipated FidelityFX Super Resolution feature...

IBM has announced a new breakthrough today, unveiling the world's first chip using 2nm nanosheet technology. The new 2nm design can bring several improvements, including big leaps in performance and efficiency.

Narrowing down the RTX 3080 Ti launch window has been a pain for insiders, with the date shifting every couple of weeks. The latest reports indicate that the RTX 3080 Ti will now be announced on the 31st of May, followed by a retail launch in June. According to some sources, the RTX 3070 Ti will launch in a similar time frame. 

Ahead of the 8th European Hardware Awards that will be presented to the world on Monday 31st May 2021, over 100 specialist editors from EHA publications across the region have been deciding on a definitive list of the best hardware available in the market. Work on that list of nominations has now been completed and we’re ready to announce the finalists to the world!

Earlier this year, we learned that Apple is internally testing two designs for a foldable iPhone, with a particular focus on the durability of the hinge. Now, new reports indicate that Apple's foldable iPhone will feature an 8-inch foldable display and will arrive in 2023.

The rumours are flying that AMD will release a Zen 3+ refresh on a TSMC 6nm process some time in 2021, which means we can look forward to updates for Ryzen desktop, Ryzen Mobile and perhaps also new Threadrippers. Luke and Leo take this opportunity to speculate wildly and make no apologies for their blatant attempt to cajole AMD into delivering new CPUs...

Nvidia made a big splash when they announced their planned CPU named Grace at their recent virtual GTC event. We all know about Nvidia's GPUs and we are sort-of aware of Bluefield which is described as a DPU. Now Nvidia also has plans for a CPU, so that means they have a Three Chip Strategy which surely merits a video from Leo...

Sapphire is back with an even faster Radeon RX 6900 XT. The new Sapphire Nitro+ Radeon RX 6900 XT Special Edition is launching today, with faster out-of-box overclocks, pushing the GPU up to 2365MHz.

Earlier this month, HyperX and MSI were able to set a new DDR4 memory overclocking world record, reaching speeds of 7156MHz. Now, just a few weeks later, this record has been broken, with MSI and HyperX hitting 7.2GHz speeds.

Once a year, we ask  you, our readers, to tell us what's hot and what's not in our unique KitGuru Reader Survey. This year, Zotac has offered up a stunning prize for one lucky participant to win: a very special 'barebones' PC that comes complete with an Intel Core i7-10700 processor and an Nvidia RTX 3070 graphics card!

The rumour mill has been pointing to an RTX 3080 Ti launch next month and now, there is a bit more evidence for this. This week, the first picture of the GA102-225 GPU leaked online, in addition to new information on specs and performance.

Using a PowerColor RX 6900 XT Liquid Devil Ultimate, Der8auer has set a new overclocking world record, pushing the GPU above 3.2GHz clock speeds.
