Have you tuned into this season of How The GPU World Turns? I've lost track of what season this actually is, or even which episode for that matter, but there's no shortage of drama, intrigue, and even a bit of comedy (mostly unintentional) unfolding for anyone who cares to watch. If you didn't catch the latest...

Having trouble finding a newfangled GPU in stock? Join the club. Alternatively, you can join NVIDIA's GeForce NOW cloud gaming service, at least until things calm down at retail (and perhaps grow a killer 5-foot beard while you wait -- sigh). All that aside, GeForce NOW is actually a capable service and it's gaining...

The great graphics card shortage of 2025 (yes, I'm officially dubbing it as such now, at least in reference to NVIDIA's newest generation GeForce RTX 50 series) is not only frustrating, it's also stalling growth in the PC GPU market, according to the latest report by the bean counters (or would that be chip counters?)...

NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5070 officially launches today in its various guises and custom third party models. However, the Founders Edition variant, which comes directly from NVIDIA, will be missing at launch. This is notable because the Founders Edition is sold at MSRP, the lowest price for the GPU. In this case, that's...

The next GPU to land at retail will be NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5070, with reviews going live today (including our own).

Forget for a moment that it's almost impossible to find a GeForce RTX 5090 in stock or that pricing on some of custom models is way above NVIDIA's baseline MSRP for its Founders Edition variant. All that aside, ASUS is touting a rash of world overclocking records achieved with one of its more pricier models, the ROG...

One of the controversies surrounding the ongoing launch of the GeForce RTX 50 series concerns the fact that it has dropped hardware acceleration for PhysX effects in 32-bit games. This affects the majority of titles using PhysX, particularly those from its halcyon days as NVIDIA's exclusive technology. Well, you can...

It's been almost a month since the GeForce RTX 5090 and GeForce RTX 5080 landed on retail shelves, both of which sold out in all of a nanosecond (or at least it felt that way). In the days and weeks since, multiple retailers and add-in board (AIB) partners have implemented systems designed to get limited restocks in...

No, that headline isn't clickbait: in the midst of a graphics card market that continues to be an absolute disaster, ASUS is out here pitching a four-year-old GPU as “the best budget graphics card we offer in 2025 for gamers who prefer NVIDIA GPUs.” That kind of statement would be a joke coming from a site like ours...

It's official—following the first user report of a GeForce RTX 5080 Founders Edition graphics card to display missing render operation pipeline (ROP) hardware in the popular GPU-Z utility, NVIDIA has confirmed that it too is affected by a rare "production anomaly" affecting half a percent (0.5%) of all GeForce RTX 50...

The recent launch of NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 50 series lineup has brought us the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, GeForce RTX 5080, and the mighty GeForce RTX 5090.

A user on Reddit has posted a GPU-Z screenshot that purportedly shows their GeForce RTX 5080 Founders Edition graphics card with fewer render operation pipelines (ROPs), or render output units if you prefer, than what are supposed to be there. It's the first case we're aware of with missing ROPs on a GeForce RTX 5080...

It turns out that a spattering of reports about some GeForce RTX 5090 graphics cards shipping with missing render output unit (or raster operations pipeline) hardware were the result of a "production anomaly" and not an issue with the BIOS. NVIDIA said as much in a statement confirming a "rare issue" with some cards...

The picture above is not a Photoshop job—or at least, if it is, we didn't make it. It comes from a Taobao listing for a listing that Google assures us is "RTX4090 Graphics Card Adapter 16PIN 180 Degree Graphics Card Power Steering Head Turbo Cooling 4080/4070." Notably, the listing makes no mention of the GeForce RTX...

If you thought "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" was an odd premise, wait until you get a load of the curious case of missing render output unit hardware (or raster operations pipeline, if you prefer—ROP from here on out) on some GeForce RTX 5090 graphics cards that are out in the wild. One of the seemingly...

If you blinked, you missed the initial wave of GeForce RTX 5090 graphics cards at retail before they sold out. And if you sneezed, you also missed your window of opportunity to snag a GeForce RTX 5080. The GeForce RTX 5070 Ti came and went in similar fashion during its retail debut, and we suspect the non-Ti variant...

Whether retailers want to admit it or not, you have almost no shot of a bagging a GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card against the barrage of bots and scalpers that swoop in whenever there's an inventory refresh. Stock has been slightly better for the GeForce RTX 5080, but those are nearly impossible find at retail, too. In...
