By 2027, the smartphone RAM market could find itself up against an unexpected rival — server platforms for AI. According to fresh estimates, NVIDIA’s Rubin system alone could gobble up more LPDDR mobile memory than Apple and Samsung buy combined for their phones. If the forecast holds, smartphone makers will have to fight the rapidly growing AI sector for limited production volumes, which risks another component shortage and price hike. -

Court documents from Elon Musk’s lawsuit against Sam Altman have revealed an unexpected detail from Silicon Valley history. It turns out that in 2016, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang, while selling the first dedicated AI server, the DGX-1, created the illusion of massive demand. In his emails, he assured Musk the machine was "selling itself," when in reality, there wasn't a single buyer to be found except Musk himself. -

NVIDIA is getting ready to bring back a graphics card many had already written off. In June 2026, shipments of the GeForce RTX 3060 with 12GB of memory — a model that launched more than five years ago — will resume. Colorful, ASUS, MSI, and GALAX will be the first partners, but the batch size will be limited. -

In tests of mid-range 1080p graphics cards, three different market approaches have collided once again: the performance play, the value play, and the VRAM capacity play. In the latest face-off from ComputerBase, the contenders were the AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT (16GB), NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 (8GB), and Intel Arc B580 (12GB). The results didn’t just show a gap in FPS — they also demonstrated how quickly 8GB of VRAM becomes a bottleneck, even at Full HD. -
Gamers Pick the Best Upscaler Blind — DLSS 4.5 Demolishes FSR 4.1, but AMD Still Has Something to Be Proud Of

Despite all the marketing hype and dreams of a double‑digit performance leap, NVIDIA’s next GPU generation is shaping up to be another exercise in fixing past mistakes rather than a technical miracle. Comparing die sizes, TSMC process nodes, and cache amounts paints a pretty down‑to‑earth picture of what the GeForce RTX 6060, 6070, and flagship RTX 6090 will actually look like. -

Classic games keep getting a second lease on life thanks to modern tech. NVIDIA just dropped a major update for RTX Remix, seriously expanding what modders can do with visual effects. The updated Quake III Arena already shows how the familiar visuals are changing – and the difference is more obvious than ever. -
PC Upgrades Are Getting More Expensive: CPUs Have Already Gone Up in Price, and It’s Going to Get Worse
Hardware and Technologies April 22, 2026, 06:01 PM
CPU prices have started to rise, and if supplier data is anything to go by, this is just the beginning. Over the past month, the price hikes have affected both regular CPUs for home PCs and server solutions, with the latter seeing noticeably steeper increases. The main reason is a sharp surge in demand from new AI systems, which are increasingly eating up manufacturing capacity that would otherwise go to the consumer market. -

Results from an unconventional graphics card comparison between the Radeon RX 9070 XT and GeForce RTX 5090 have surfaced online. The tests were run on an identical platform featuring a Ryzen 9 9950X3D processor and 64GB of DDR5-6000 RAM. The difference came down to the operating conditions: NVIDIA’s flagship ran at native 4K with DLAA anti-aliasing, while the AMD card used FSR 4.1 upscaling with active frame generation.
