Overclocking is more popular than ever. And since it's so easy to boost the frequency of your Intel processor, it would be a shame not to. But CPUs aren't the only components that can be overclocked. The GPUs on graphics cards can also be speeded up, and so can their memory. And since an affordable card only differs from more expensive ones in its clock speed, overclocking can be your key to some real savings.
Overclocking a GPU is a less common process than overclocking a CPU, and above all, it's more complex. One of the reasons for that is that a graphics card's BIOS is not as easily accessible as a motherboard's. This article will shed some light on the different methods that can be used and the results you can expect when overclocking your graphics card.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."

That's quite false.
If that were true. Then why would I buy a Radeon HD 3870 clocked at 800mhz, instead of the Radeon 3450 clocked at 800mhz?
Because the more expensive the card, the better features it has. Clockspeed has almost nothing to do with it.
The more expensive cards have more pixel pipelines/stream processing units, higher memory bitrate, more memory usually, a kind that can be pushed faster.
Also, "Architecture" is a main part of it to.
Why do you think that while Nvidia's graphics cards are clocked lower.. They still seem to beat ATI's cards in benchmarks?
It's because Nvidia has a better processing architecture.
Simply overclocking your card will almost never bring you the kind of gain that buying a better card would. Cause clock frequency is a VERY small part of the differences between cards.
We need more articles like these "How to"
websites that have like 1-3 paragraphs on a page and have the gall to spread that info into like 5+ pages (all with 1-3 paragraphs on them)
if you took the time to break the info down into so many pages with just a few paragraphs and 2 or 3 pics, why can't you just half the number of pages and double the amount of content?
not that i am complaining about the extra clicking, its visually annoying, time consuming, and just plain dumb.
