Nvidia takes another step in its transition from Ampere to Ada
The new RTX 5000 Ada Generation GPU provides more evidence of Ada delivering on compelling speedups for 3D graphics and rendering.

As part of its ongoing research pertaining to the workstation market, Jon Peddie Research (JPR) has released its quarterly JPR Workstation Market Report for Q2’22. Following suit with the prior quarter's results, Q2’22 again showed continuing moderation in the workstation market’s growth rate. However, a slowing rate should not be inferred as a decline in unit volume, as the market … Read more
As part of its ongoing research on the workstation market, Jon Peddie Research (JPR) has released its JPR Workstation Report Market Quarterly for Q1’22. Q1’22 workstation market results appear to finally show the beginning of the end for the market’s period of pandemic-fueled, overly exuberant sales. With a first-quarter year-over-year (YoY) growth rate of 24%, the market still ran hotter … Read more
Market performance across geographies stabilize
In the literal sense, Moore’s Law—long a definition and quantification of the down-scaling of the silicon-integrated transistor area and cost—has slowed or ended, depending on how strictly one interprets the definition. But, Moore’s Law is not the point, it's a metric. Technology R&D will continue to find new ways to advance the performance and price-performance of processors and that is the point. The semantic details … Read more

Mini unit now extended to professional applications
From a strategic standpoint, Intel is intentionally not in the business of making money from selling systems. And for good reason, as doing so — at least on any kind of consistent basis —would alienate its OEM customers, whose existence does depend on making money from selling systems. However, to help seed demand, especially for novel products, Intel will create … Read more
Performance: relative to its predecessor and the most comparable Nvidia offering
Intel once envisioned a 2018 where 10-nm processors were shipping out of its fabs, followed by a subsequent introduction of a major new core microarchitecture. However, the company’s well-chronicled delays with 10-nm meant another “optimization” generation extending Skylake one more time on 14++ was in order to fill the gap. For the Core brand processors serving high-performance PC and Entry … Read more
And the fact they are so symbiotic could have a lasting and dramatic impact on 3D visual processing. Right at the outset of this year’s GPU Technology Conference (GTC), Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang went out of his way to give graphics a hefty dose of respect, acknowledging that 3D visual processing remains the company’s bread and butter business. Now from … Read more
