ATX builds are cheaper because components are widely available, but ITX builds are more expensive due to limited supply. For LAN gamers, compact ITX builds are practical for portability. A small motherboard or short-form graphics card is easy to source,…
When it comes to component selection, the motherboard is the most complex part of a PC build. The reason is that multiple factors, such as CPU socket type (Intel LGA1700 or AMD AM5), chipset generation (Z790 or B650), and memory…
The best gaming motherboards are models with high-end chipsets such as AMD X670E and Intel Z790, designed to support CPUs like Ryzen 7000 and Core i9-13900K. These motherboards use advanced components and provide specialized features such as PCIe 5.0 expansion…
Only three companies currently design consumer graphics processors: Nvidia, AMD, and Intel. Nvidia and AMD dominate with over 90% combined market share, while Intel entered in 2022 with its Arc series. Nvidia and AMD invest billions in GPU research, making…
A motherboard defines CPU compatibility, RAM capacity, storage interfaces, and expansion options, which directly influence PC performance. Apart from performance, it provides features such as PCIe slots, memory channels, and I/O ports, which is why it dictates the quality and…
Intel released the 12th generation Core-series processors in November 2021, and according to AnandTech benchmark data, Cinebench R23 multi-threaded performance increased by 27–30% compared to Intel’s 11th-generation models. AMD Ryzen 5000-series processors outperformed the 11th-generation Intel processors, but Alder Lake…
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3000-series launched in September 2020 at $699 MSRP with flagship-level performance, but global chip shortages caused severe availability issues across retailers. Less than 2% of buyers could purchase at MSRP in Q4 2020, with restocks often…
AMD graphics cards focused on the mid-range market until 2020, and the company did not offer high-end GPUs that could rival the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080. However, with the release of the AMD Radeon RX 6000 series in November 2020,…
A high-performance gaming monitor maximizes the visual output of the NVIDIA RTX 3070. In gaming, monitor specifications such as resolution and refresh rate directly affect achievable frame rates and image quality. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 has 5888 CUDA cores…
Motherboards are the primary circuit boards that connect the CPU, GPU, RAM, and storage devices directly. High-end X570 motherboards feature up to 16-phase VRMs, PCIe 4.0 lanes, and support for 128GB DDR4 memory. Motherboards allow other components to operate at…
