While higher resolution monitors are becoming more popular and we recommend them, 1080p continues to have the most usage among PC gamers. We take a look at DLSS upscaling vs native rendering at 1080p.

3D graphics transformed a somewhat dull PC industry into a spectacle of light and magic after generations of innovative endeavor. TechSpot's look at the history of the GPU goes from the early days of 3D, to game-changing hardware and beyond.

#TBT Every few years it seems like there's an amazing new technology with the promise of making games look ever more realistic. We've had shaders, tessellation, shadow mapping, ray tracing – and now there's path tracing.

You're playing the latest games at beautiful 4K ultra res. Do you ever wonder how those graphics got there? Welcome to our 3D Game Rendering 101: A guide to how one basic frame of gaming goodness is made.

It's been four years since AMD launched RDNA, the successor to the venerable GCN graphics architecture. We take a look through the tech and numbers to see just how successful it's been.

AMD's FSR 3 frame generation technology made a surprise debut earlier this month in two games, and we're ready to give you an early look, covering frame pacing, image quality and latency.

The Phantom Liberty update brings significant updates to Cyberpunk 2077, including DLSS 3.5, further graphics and hardware support enhancements. It's GPU benchmark time.

The next iteration of Nvidia's DLSS technology has landed and today we're checking out what DLSS 3.5 is and taking a closer look at ray reconstruction, which has been integrated into Cyberpunk 2.0.

We're going through every setting in Starfield and tell you which settings are worth turning to Ultra, and which should be turned down to improve performance. That's right, optimization guides are back!

#TBT These days it's rare to see a new hardware company break ground in the world of PCs, but 30 years ago, they were popping up all over the place. Join us as we pay tribute to S3 and see how its remarkable story unfolded over the years.

Three vendors. Three architectures. Three approaches to GPU design. Join us as we dive into their semiconductor hearts and see how Ada Lovelace, Arc Alchemist, and RDNA 3 contrast and compare.

The story of ATI Technologies is a fascinating journey, full of trials and tribulations, and with an unusual twist at the end. Here's our tribute to the graphics card giant.

AI image generators are hot news, so it takes something special to stand out in the crowd. Midjourney is among the best, read on to find out why and how to use it. We've updated our guide with new samples and a showcase of v5.1 capabilities.

We often hear people say that DLSS can deliver "better than native" image quality, giving gamers not only a performance boost but superior visuals. Let's find out if this is at all true.
