Ahead of the release of the GeForce RTX 4070, AMD reminds gamers that the amount of video memory is very important today
The GeForce RTX 4070 graphics card will be presented today and the first reviews will be published today. Against this background, AMD decided to remind gamers that the amount of memory in modern video cards is an important parameter. And here, many Radeon cards are better than competitors.
As you can see, even models with a price of $500 or more offer 16 GB of memory, although so far such cards are only available within the previous generation. The RTX 4070, recall, will have 12 GB of memory.
AMD also showed how much video memory some modern games require, and not built on the latest engines.
And one could call AMD’s statements pure marketing, but the other day we were convinced that AMD’s approach with a large amount of memory in video cards justified itself, since the RTX 3070 with its 8 GB of memory loses the RX 6800 in many modern games, and sometimes catastrophically, although two years ago at the start, these maps were close.
The PC GPU market fell 43% year-on-year in the first quarter of 2023, according to analysts at Jon Peddie Research.
Desktop GPU shipments dropped by 40% and laptop shipments by 45%, nearly halving.
If we consider the GPU market as a whole, including iGPUs in processors, then Intel continues to dominate with a 68% share, AMD holds 13%, and Nvidia has a 19% share. At the same time, Intel’s share has grown significantly over the year, while Nvidia and AMD have seen a decline.
Analysts also assessed the processor market. There is data on the distribution into segments: 31% fell on desktop CPUs, and the remaining 69% are laptop processors. A year earlier, the shares were respectively 27% and 73%.
Asus has revealed its new ROG Swift OLED PG49WDCD gaming monitor, which offers a very unusual feature set.
First, the monitor is huge. We are talking about a 49-inch panel. Secondly, this panel is curved. Thirdly, this is a QD-OLED panel, which is still very rare. Among other things, it is characterized by a peak brightness of 1000 cd / m2.
Fourthly, the resolution of this panel is 5120 x 1440 pixels, that is, the aspect ratio is 32:9. In addition, the panel supports a frame rate of 144 Hz.
From the rest, we can note support for USB Power Delivery with a power of 90 W, HDMI 2.1 ports and a stand that allows you to adjust the height of the panel. Price data is not yet available.

This is the second generation of the iconic NH-D15 super cooler. There are not many changes, but it’s still a long time to wait for the release
Noctua first showed a new generation of CPU cooler NH-D15.
Outwardly, the cooler has changed very little, so they decided not to change the name. But, for example, there were eight heat pipes against six in the first generation. In addition, the gap between the ribs was reduced from 1.9 to 1.6 mm.
Two new-generation 140mm fans will be responsible for airflow, details of which are not yet available. All of this combined should make the iconic cooler a bit more performant, although now, almost 10 years after its release, it is still one of the best-performing CPU coolers on the market.
Despite the demonstration, the release of the novelty is still far away: Noctua is going to release the cooler only next year.
