    Frohe Weihnachten und besinnliche Feiertage!

    An sich wollte ich den gleichen Text wie all die Jahre zuvor nutzen und doch sitze ich nun hier und mir ist so ganz und gar nicht danach. In dieser Stimmung schreibe ich den größten Mist oder das Beste, was ich jemals geschrieben habe. So wie dieses eine Buch, das es nicht geben wird, weil man mir nach sagt stur zu sein…….aber ich schweife ab. Das kann ich gut, bedeutet aber nicht, dass ich nicht zuhöre.

    Worauf ich hinaus wollte?

    Ich wünsche euch allen von Herzen frohe und vor allem friedliche Weihnachten und Feiertage!

    Denkt immer daran, es gibt mehr da draußen als unsere eigene kleine Welt. Gebt, wenn ihr geben könnt und behandelt Menschen immer so, wie ihr es auch für euch erwartet. Selbst wenn ihr nur absolut neutral mit jemandem umgeht, ist dies immer noch besser als eine Vorverurteilung. Seid menschlich!

    Nun noch kurz das übliche Zitat von einem Menschen, der sehr viel intelligenter und emotionaler zugleich war – Khalil Gibran.

    Der Mensch wird niemals etwas erfinden, er entdeckt es lediglich.

    3DMark Steel Nomad free for all 3DMark users.

    Last month, we introduced you to 3DMark Steel Nomad, our cross-platform successor to Time Spy and Time Spy Extreme as our recommended non-raytracing benchmark.

    We’re happy to announce that Steel Nomad will be a free update for all 3DMark users.

    3DMark Professional Edition customers with a valid annual license will also receive Steel Nomad as a complimentary update.

    Stress Test

    Games and PC hardware have changed significantly since Time Spy launched, and recent high-end hardware is starting to reach the limit of what Time Spy is able to give relevant scores for.

    To appropriately measure the performance of such a wide range of devices, 3DMark Steel Nomad will include two benchmarks:

    Steel Nomad Light will be our recommended benchmark for measuring the performance of Lightweight devices, such as Windows laptops with integrated graphics, Windows-on-Arm devices, Apple Silicon Macs, iOS, and Android devices.

    Arriving soon

    3DMark Steel Nomad will launch in the first quarter of next year for devices running Windows and Windows-on-Arm on Steam, the Epic Games Store, or direct from UL Solutions. Steel Nomad and Steel Nomad Light for macOS and Linux, and Steel Nomad Light for Android and iOS devices, will launch later in 2024.

    We want 3DMark to provide gamers, overclockers, hardware reviewers and those in industry with a set of gaming benchmarks relevant to real-world gaming performance. With many games featuring a range of ray tracing workloads, a range of benchmarks are also required for a true measurement of a PC’s performance.

    Get a broader view of gaming performance in one application.

    Steel Nomad is designed to sit alongside our three ray tracing benchmarks, Speed Way, Port Royal and Solar Bay, to give you the best understanding of your PC’s gaming performance from a single application.

    • Speed Way is a DirectX 12 Ultimate ray-traced benchmark — and our heaviest benchmark. It will stay our recommended test for those of you looking to measure the full capabilities of the very best hardware available for Windows PC gamers.
    • Solar Bay is our lightest ray-traced benchmark, and our recommendation for those looking to measure the ray tracing performance of lightweight Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android devices.
    • Port Royal is a Windows raytracing benchmark that sits between Speed Way and Solar Bay and helps you build a complete overview of a PC’s raytraced gaming performance.
    • Steel Nomad will be our heaviest non-raytraced benchmark, designed to run on the latest high-end gaming hardware.
    • Steel Nomad Light will be the recommended benchmark for non-raytraced performance on lightweight devices.

    The Need for Middle Class GPUs in the €250 Price Range: Affordable State-of-the-Art Performance

    Introduction:

    In today’s rapidly advancing technological landscape, graphics processing units (GPUs) have become an essential component for various applications, from gaming to professional design work. However, the high cost of top-tier GPUs often puts them out of reach for many consumers. This blog post explores the need for middle-class GPUs in the €250 price range, offering affordable yet state-of-the-art performance. By addressing the demand for affordable GPUs, we can bridge the gap between budget-conscious consumers and the latest advancements in graphics technology.

    The Importance of Price Range:

    The price range of a product plays a crucial role in determining its accessibility to a wider consumer base. While high-end GPUs offer unparalleled performance, their exorbitant prices make them unattainable for the average consumer. On the other hand, entry-level GPUs may be affordable, but they often lack the power and capabilities required for demanding tasks. This is where middle-class GPUs in the €250 price range come into play.

    Affordability for the Masses:

    Affordability is a key factor when it comes to technology adoption. By offering GPUs in the €250 price range, manufacturers can tap into a larger market segment, making high-performance graphics accessible to a wider audience. This affordability empowers budget-conscious consumers, including students, casual gamers, and creative professionals, to experience the benefits of state-of-the-art graphics without breaking the bank.

    State-of-the-Art Performance:

    Middle-class GPUs in the €250 price range can provide a significant boost in performance compared to entry-level options. These GPUs often feature advanced architectures, higher core counts, and increased memory bandwidth, allowing users to enjoy smoother gameplay, faster rendering times, and improved productivity. By striking a balance between price and performance, these GPUs offer a compelling proposition for consumers who demand more than entry-level capabilities but cannot afford top-tier options.

    Closing the Gap:

    The availability of middle-class GPUs in the €250 price range helps bridge the gap between affordability and state-of-the-art performance. It allows consumers to experience the latest advancements in graphics technology without compromising their budget. Moreover, this price range encourages healthy competition among manufacturers, driving innovation and pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the mid-range GPU market.

    Conclusion:

    In summary, there is a strong desire for mid-range GPUs available at an affordable price of around €250. These GPUs offer exceptional performance while remaining budget-friendly, catering to cost-conscious individuals who prioritize high-quality graphics. Moreover, middle-class GPUs expand the market for manufacturers and allow a wider audience to explore the realm of advanced graphics technology. As technology continues to progress, it becomes crucial to make cutting-edge performance readily accessible to everyone, and this precisely highlights the significance of mid-range GPUs priced at €250.

    Das große LAN-Wichteln

    Halli, hallo und hallöle.

    Diesen Beitrag und seine Konsequenzen habt ihr ausschließlich, na ja nicht ganz, aber wer achtet schon auf Details oder Quellen, dem DarkLupus zu verdanken.

    Durch das angesprochene Weihnachtswichteln kam er auf die Idee ein LAN-Wichteln zu machen. Ganz einfach gesagt bleibt die bisherige Liste bestehen, es wird aber „live“ gewichtelt. Jeder Teilnehmer bekommt einen von der Liste zugelost und wird das Präsent auf der LAN überreichen. Somit können wir die Freude oder den Schmerz zusammen direkt vor Ort erleben.

    Ihr müsst natürlich nicht teilnehmen, aber falls doch, sprecht mich bitte an oder tragt euch selbst in die Liste im Infocenter ein. Die LAN findet übrigens vom 01.02.24 bis zum 05.02.24 statt, mehr dazu aber in Kürze.
