Forza Horizon 6 Benchmark: 47 GPUs Tested
1080p, 1440p, 4K Tested Forza Horizon 6 is one of the best-looking racing games yet, but max settings and RT can crush modern GPUs. We tested 47 graphics cards to see what it really takes to run well.
FSR 4 upscaling is finally coming to older Radeon GPUs, and the image quality gains are real
Radeon RX 7000 gets FSR 4.1 in July, RX 6000 owners not until early 2027
Recap: Modders have known since last year that AMD was developing a version of FSR 4 that supports older Radeon graphics cards. Still, despite growing outcry from RX 7000 and RX 6000 owners, the GPU manufacturer remained silent about its plans to release the AI upscaling model until this week. Early testing indicates that, while performance savings are significantly smaller than on RX 9000 cards, the image quality enhancements remain worthwhile.
Forza Horizon 6 GPU Benchmark: 8GB vs. 16GB VRAM
Forza Horizon 6 looks stunning, but our testing shows modern visuals come at a steep VRAM cost. Here's how 8GB and 16GB GPUs compare across a range of settings and resolutions.

Gamers Are Wrong About 1440p vs 1080p CPU Benchmarking
Here We Go Again, or: Why GPU Bottlenecks Hide True CPU Performance.
Gamers keep demanding 1440p CPU benchmarks, but higher resolutions often hide the very performance differences CPU testing is supposed to reveal. Here's why 1080p still matters most.

Nvidia's mythical N1 SoC surfaces on a real motherboard, and it's packing 128GB of LPDDR5X
In context: Arm-based laptops typically lag in the GPU department – after all, unlike x86, the platform isn't known for its gaming performance. But that may soon change. Nvidia has been working with MediaTek on an Arm-based SoC featuring a GPU that could rival the RTX 5070. The chip, reportedly called the N1, is impressive given that it integrates the CPU and GPU into a single package.
