en.gamegpu.com/news/zhelezo/… NVIDIA limits the speed of certain tensor operations on consumer GeForce GPUs using Turing, Ampere and Ada Lovelace. With FP32 accumulation, these units run at half the speed of professional accelerators. This does not directly affect gaming FPS. A buffer overflow vulnerability in the SEC2 controller's Booter microcode made it possible to bypass the limit. The exploit switches a register from HALF_SPEED to FULL_SPEED. On the GeForce RTX 4090, theoretical throughput for these operations rises from 165 to 331 TFLOPS. Actual application gains may be smaller. The method does not work on GeForce RTX 50 cards using Blackwell. A different RISC-V-based FSP security processor controls startup, while firmware is protected by encryption and digital signatures. The old Booter attack path is no longer present. #NVIDIA #GeForce #RTX4090 #RTX50 #Blackwell #TensorCores #SEC2

en.gamegpu.com/test-gpu/acti… The native PC port of Shadow of the Colossus has received an update to version 0.60.6-plus9. The game runs original PlayStation 4 code directly on the PC processor while translating graphics instructions into Vulkan API calls. On a system equipped with an RTX 5060 Ti graphics card, performance reaches a steady 60 FPS inside the temple area and fluctuates between 45 and 55 FPS across open environments. The new fork introduces modern scaling technologies including DLSS and FSR 3.1 along with frame generation, automatic video memory allocation, and ultrawide screen support for 21:9 and 32:9 displays. Native 4K rendering is locked to maintain visual clarity.

en.gamegpu.com/news/zhelezo/… Owners of the XFX Mercury Radeon RX 9070 XT OC Magnetic Air Edition are discussing the challenges of choosing a suitable PC case. The graphics card measures 360 mm in length, 155 mm in width and 72 mm in thickness, occupying more than three expansion slots. Extra room is also needed for three 8-pin power connectors. Vertical mounting is particularly difficult. The massive cooler can place its fans too close to the glass side panel, restricting airflow, increasing GPU and memory temperatures, and producing more noise. Owners recommend wide Full Tower or dual-chamber cases for this configuration. In cramped Mid Tower cases, the card may interfere with liquid cooling tubes and cable routing. Owners advise checking clearances, installing bottom intake fans and using a support bracket to prevent GPU sag. #AMD #Radeon #RX9070XT #XFX #MagneticAir #GraphicsCards #Cooling

en.gamegpu.com/news/zhelezo/… An enthusiast has rebuilt a compact Mini ITX gaming PC based on the GeForce RTX 5090 Founders Edition graphics card after the power connector melted. The manufacturer approved the RMA process and quickly sent a replacement unit even without the original purchase invoice. The powerful hardware setup was assembled inside a FormD T1 case featuring an AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D processor, an Asus B850-I motherboard, 64GB of DDR5 memory, and a 1000W SFX power supply. High-speed solid-state drives provide vast capacity for system tasks. Careful voltage tuning helped significantly limit power draw to 420W, maintaining peak gaming temperatures below 80 °C under steady load. #NVIDIA #GeForce #RTX5090 #MiniITX #PCBuild #Hardware #AMD

en.gamegpu.com/news/igry/nov… Unreal Engine 5.8 introduces the ASDTool utility to support DirectX Advanced Shader Delivery. The system moves Direct3D 12 shader compilation from the player PC directly to digital storefront servers to stop launch hitches. The standalone tool builds a hardware-independent SODB file from a cooked Windows project without running the editor. Store platforms compile this database into device-specific files for supported graphics cards and drivers. The pipeline requires Windows with Shader Model 6 and does not support ray tracing workloads. Standard bundled PSO caching remains strictly required as a fallback for older graphics hardware and legacy driver versions. #UnrealEngine #DirectX #D3D12 #GameDev #Optimization #Shaders #PCGaming

en.gamegpu.com/news/zhelezo/… The upcoming PlayStation 6 portable console will become the only mainstream handheld device featuring a custom chip based on the RDNA 5 architecture. This information was shared by Digital Foundry specialists and hardware insider KeplerL2. AMD no longer develops custom processors for orders under 10 million lifetime units. Because this threshold could not be met by Valve or Microsoft, their upcoming portable systems will rely on standard chips with RDNA 3.5 and RDNA 4 graphics. The custom Sony processor will provide hardware ray tracing acceleration, dedicated PSSR upscaling, native backward compatibility with PS4 and PS5 games, 24 GB of LPDDR5X memory, and stable operation under a 15W power envelope. #PlayStation6 #Sony #AMD #RDNA5 #SteamDeck2 #Xbox #handhelds

en.gamegpu.com/news/igry/v-s… Enthusiasts showcased a recovered March 2017 development build of Resident Evil 7 Not a Hero DLC retrieved from a PlayStation 4 kit. The expansion was initially handled by studio HexaDrive before Capcom intervened due to quality concerns and delayed the launch. The recovered prototype reveals stark narrative differences compared to the final release. Chris Redfield successfully rescues all three advance unit operatives from the underground traps without receiving the explosive arm bracelet. The original climax featured infected operative Alan Droney as the primary boss encounter, while Lucas Baker was taken alive into custody before Capcom changed the ending. #ResidentEvil #ResidentEvil7 #NotAHero #Capcom #Gaming #Horror #News

en.gamegpu.com/news/zhelezo/… A PC user detected early pin burning on a Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5080 Gaming OC graphics card power connector during regular system maintenance. The graphics hardware was powered by an older 750W power supply unit utilizing the bundled three 8 pin adapter cable under a tight bend radius. Transient power loads and uneven current distribution triggered localized heat buildup around the terminal pins. The owner turned off the computer to install an ATX 3.1 compliant 850W power supply alongside a dedicated 12V-2x6 cable and a WireView Pro 2 monitor. #RTX5080 #Gigabyte #Hardware #GPU #PowerSupply #PCGaming #Tech

en.gamegpu.com/news/zhelezo/… The white XFX Swift Radeon RX 9060 XT OC 16GB has reportedly received a $94 discount, bringing its price to approximately $532 from $626. That represents a reduction of around 15%. The retailer also advertises a 15-day price guarantee and free delivery on qualifying orders, although the store has not been identified. Powered by AMD's RDNA 4 architecture, the card features a Navi 44 GPU with 2,048 stream processors, 16GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus, dual-fan cooling and a single 8-pin power connector. Its length is approximately 270mm. The offer could appeal to gamers building a white-themed PC for 1080p or 1440p gaming. However, buyers should verify availability, warranty terms and final pricing. At 20Gbps, the memory provides 320GB/s of theoretical bandwidth, not the reported 340GB/s. #AMD #Radeon #RX9060XT #XFX #RDNA4 #GPU #GraphicsCards

en.gamegpu.com/news/zhelezo/… A PC builder discovered significant melting damage on a 12VHPWR power cable while repasting the processor. The system paired an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Founders Edition graphics card with a custom CableMod cable purchased back in 2023 for an older flagship. The setup was housed inside a compact Fractal Ridge chassis powered by an ASUS Loki 1000W SFX-L power supply unit. Due to limited spatial clearance, the tight bend near the terminal caused critical localized overheating, burning straight through the white sleeving down to the wiring. Hardware specialists emphasize that running early revisions of 16 pin cables under severe bends risks high contact resistance and severe hardware failure across modern components. #RTX5090 #12VHPWR #NVIDIA #Hardware #GPU #CableMod #PC
