We bought a PowerColor RX 7900 XT Hellhound for $720 recently and we're revisiting it for a 2023 refresh. It WAS the cheapest card for a little bit, and hopefully it will be again. The 7900 XT has changed price a lot over the last year, meaning the value proposition could have changed alongside that. Most recently, we've seen swings from $850 to $720, then $800, and now there are some back at $750 again -- but all of these are transient, of course, and the conclusion ends up being a more nuanced "if it costs THIS, then here's what we think." We'd assume some of the pricing chaos is due to GPU oversupply and some is due to impending holiday sales. Either way, we're revisiting the RX 7900 XT vs. the RTX 4070 Ti, RX 6950 XT, RTX 4070, and RX 7900 XTX (among other cards).

Eurogamer's review of Alan Wake 2, a gorgeous but relentlessly meta game about writing that badly needs an editor.

We'd been expecting a game to arrive that would practically demand that you upgrade your PC hardware, and it's not enti…

This benchmark tests GPU performance in Cities: Skylines 2 by Colosssal Order. Cities Skylines 2 is easily the most GPU-intensive city builder we've ever seen, even adjusted for the era. Despite highly intensive simulation happening on the CPU, the GPU ultimately bears disproportionate weight right now. Playing above 1080p is difficult on most cards, with even the RTX 4090 struggling in this game. The testing looks at AMD vs. NVIDIA GPUs (we had crashing problems with Intel) for framerate performance in Cities Skylines 2 at Very Low, Low, Medium, and High settings. We also tested graphics quality and provide some graphics optimize advice for better GPU performance in Skylines 2. The graphics guide includes some comparisons at different settings, quality levels, and discussion of texture loading bugs (even on RTX 4090 levels of VRAM!). This will help you figure out the best GPUs for Cities Skylines 2 at different price and performance targets.

The graphics settings tests will look at Depth of Field, Volumetric lighting effects, Global Illumination, Ambient Occlusion, clouds, anti-aliasing, and more.
