  • Breaking the Limits: Teclab Pushes RTX 50 GPUs Beyond 36 Gbps

    Teclab has successfully bypassed the frequency restrictions imposed by NVIDIA on RTX 50 series graphics cards, managing to overclock the RTX 5070 Ti to a remarkable speed of over 36 Gbps.

    The RTX 50 series, equipped with GDDR7 memory, typically supports data transfer rates between 28 Gbps and 30 Gbps. For the RTX 5080, the claimed effective clock speed is 15000 MHz, while for the other models in the series, it’s 14000 MHz.

    The performance results in the Unigine Superposition benchmark are quite impressive:

    Teclab plans to showcase even greater overclocking potential and set new records in an upcoming video. They will be testing the RTX 5070 Ti HOF from GALAX, achieving outstanding performance for GDDR7 modules with a standard bandwidth of 28 Gbps.

    Previously, we reported complaints from NVIDIA RTX 50 graphics card owners about the latest Game Ready driver version 595.71, which was limiting voltage and reducing performance. Additionally, Lenovo and Asus accidentally listed a yet-to-be-released NVIDIA RTX 5070 mobile version with 12 GB in their laptop specifications.

    Currently, overclocking applications allow setting a maximum clock speed of around 3 GHz, slightly higher. NVIDIA restricts higher clock speeds. According to Burti_TecLab, they used the simplest GALAX 5070 Ti 1-Click OC model, without any shunt modifications. They simply circumvented the power limit.

    The software couldn’t read the power consumption of the graphics card because the multiplexer was disabled. The initial run was without overclocking. During the second run, manual overclocking was applied to exceed 3.3 GHz. This method involves tricking the GPU’s clock management system at a logical or programming level.

    This modification convinces the GPU that it’s operating at a base or lower clock speed, while in reality, the clock speeds are significantly higher. This applies to both GPU and memory frequencies. Even though the monitoring application showed a drop in clock speed to 3.1-3.2 GHz and memory bandwidth at 28 Gbps, during the third overclock, these values were even higher than during the second attempt. The RTX 5070 Ti achieved speeds exceeding 36 Gbps (over 18000 MHz).

  • New Apple MacBook Pro with M5 Pro and M5 Max: Enhanced CPU, GPU Performance and Faster SSD

    Apple has unveiled its latest MacBook Pro models, featuring the powerful M5 Pro and M5 Max processors. These laptops are available in both 14-inch and 16-inch sizes.

    The 16-inch MacBook Pro is equipped with the M5 Pro chip, boasting 18 CPU cores and 20 GPU cores. The same configurations for the M5 Max are also available in the 14-inch version.

    According to Apple, the storage in the new MacBook Pro operates twice as fast as the previous generation, reaching speeds up to 14.5 GB/s. This means users not only benefit from increased storage capacity but also enhanced speed. However, these upgrades have resulted in a price increase.

    Prices have risen across the entire MacBook Pro lineup. The 14-inch model with the M5 chip, previously starting at $1599, now begins at $1699. In this configuration, users receive a doubled base storage of 1 TB.

    The new 14-inch MacBook Pro can be configured with either the M5 Pro or M5 Max chip. The M5 Pro variant offers options of 15 or 18 CPU cores and 16 or 20 GPU cores. Users can choose between 24 or 48 GB of RAM, with the storage starting at 1 TB, up from the previous standard of 512 GB. Those opting for the M5 Max will have 18 CPU cores and options for 32 or 40 GPU cores.

    These laptops also feature Apple’s custom N1 chip, offering Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6 support. Apple estimates the MacBook Pro’s battery life to last up to 24 hours, with fast charging capable of reaching 50% in just 30 minutes using a 96W or higher adapter. The device retains the Liquid Retina XDR display (up to 1600 nits HDR, 1000 nits SDR), which has been in use for several years, and now includes a 12-megapixel Center Stage front camera. Additional features include studio-quality microphones and a six-speaker audio system with Spatial Audio support. The laptops run on macOS Tahoe, integrated with Apple Intelligence.

    Similarly, the M5 Pro and M5 Max versions see a price rise: the 14-inch M5 Pro model now costs $2199, up from $1999, and the 16-inch version starts at $2699, up from $2499. The standard 16-inch version comes with 24 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage—double that of the previous generation. The M5 Max option starts with 2 TB of storage and 36 GB of RAM, priced at $3599 for the 14-inch version and $3899 for the 16-inch variant.

    MacBook Pro M5 survives being run over by a car: only a few scratches

    Apple emphasizes the enhanced performance of its latest chips and the laptops they power. The company claims up to a 30% increase in CPU performance and up to a 50% boost in GPU performance compared to the M4 Pro/Max. Thanks to the new Fusion architecture and GPUs equipped with Neural Accelerators in each core, the laptops deliver up to 4× greater AI performance than the previous generation.
