Site news
January 24, 2024: Two months ago we modified our website to support mobile devices, and refreshed website's look and feel at the same time. After exhaustive review of the new design, we discovered and recently fixed a number of issues, including:
- Tables with lists of graphics cards on some pages were too wide for small screens, which made text too small to read.
- We improved website accessibility by increasing contrast of text and links, and adding labels to input fields and buttons.
- The "Compare GPUs" page now opens a comparison page in a new tab.
- We fixed errors in HTML code and eliminated old/obsolete code.
- Several javascript-based features were replaced with similar features, that do not require javascript.
We've also made a few visual enhancements to the design. In particular, we added main page headings, and enabled loading of images only when they are needed.
November 22, 2023: We tweaked website design, and, what's more important, made it mobile-friendly. New responsive design can now adapt to different screen sizes, from small 320-pixel wide smartphone screens to large desktop screens.
June 22, 2021: We posted specifications of 3500+ graphics cards, including many cards launched in the past three years. We also added 4 GPU manufacturers: Biostar, GeCube, Kuroutoshikou and Maxsun.
