Complementing this graphical fidelity is NVIDIA DLSS 3, an AI-powered performance multiplier. DLSS 3 uses advanced AI algorithms to boost frame rates without compromising image quality, allowing players to enjoy the game at higher resolutions and with greater smoothness. This technology not only enhances gameplay but also future-proofs the experience, ensuring that Black Myth: Wukong remains visually stunning on next-generation hardware.

With these innovations, Black Myth: Wukong stands poised to set a new standard in gaming. Players can look forward to a game that not only challenges their skills but also captivates their senses with its remarkable visual achievements.

Prepare to embark on an epic journey through a world where myth meets cutting-edge technology. Black Myth: Wukong is more than just a game; it’s a showcase of what’s possible when artistry meets the power of NVIDIA RTX.

For even faster frame rates, owners of GeForce RTX 40 Series graphics cards and laptops can accelerate performance using NVIDIA DLSS 3 with Frame Generation. 

In Black Myth: Wukong, DLSS 3 multiplies performance with full ray tracing enabled and every setting maxed out. That allows owners of the GeForce RTX 4090, the world’s fastest gaming GPU, to hit nearly 100 frames per second in Black Myth: Wukong’s benchmark. Additionally, owners of the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER and GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER can join in on the 4K fun, running at 74 and 66 frames per second, respectively. If you own one of these GPUs, prepare your eyes for a dazzling display of the very best graphics and gameplay.

At 2560×1440, acceleration of frame rates enables even more configurations to experience Black Myth: Wukong with full ray tracing and maxed out visuals. The GeForce 4090 surpasses 120 FPS, the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER runs at over 90 FPS, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER exceeds 80 FPS, and the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER passes 70 FPS. And the popular GeForce RTX 4070 pops past 60 FPS, giving its many owners a fast, smooth experience in Black Myth: Wukong.

At 1920×1080, which steadfastly remains the most popular gaming resolution, virtually all GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs can surpass 60 FPS with full ray tracing enabled and all other options cranked up, thanks to a DLSS 3 boost. As for the massively popular GeForce RTX 4060, it can get 60 FPS with a few settings tweaks, or with the use of NVIDIA app’s one-click Optimal Settings.

The highly-anticipated Alan Wake 2 launches this week, and looks stunning with breathtaking, fully ray-traced graphics which are accelerated and enhanced by NVIDIA DLSS 3.5’s complete suite of AI-powered technologies.

GeForce RTX 40 Series gamers will receive the definitive day-one experience: frame rates are multiplied by an average of 4.5X at 4K, ray tracing is even more immersive thanks to NVIDIA DLSS Ray Reconstruction, and NVIDIA Reflex makes gameplay even more responsive.

Additionally, Ikonei Island: An Earthlock Adventure, and Shadows of Doubt, two highly rated indie games, also receive DLSS performance upgrades today.

The Return of Alan Wake!

Remedy Entertainment’s eagerly awaited Alan Wake 2, published by Epic Games, arrives October 27th with jaw-dropping fully ray-traced graphics, enhanced and accelerated by DLSS 3.5 with Ray Reconstruction. Players will explore two beautiful yet terrifying worlds, boasting the most advanced visuals seen to date in gaming, searching for the source of a supernatural darkness that has trapped Alan in an endless nightmare.

Alan Wake 2’s fully ray-traced, path-traced visuals take the game’s ray-traced lighting, reflections and shadows to the next level, unifying them in a single solution that produces incredible results, as seen in this new, exclusive Alan Wake 2 RTX launch video.

Alan Wake 2 Gets Up to 4.5X Faster with a DLSS Performance Upgrade 

Activating ray tracing and DLSS in Alan Wake 2 on a GeForce RTX GPU automatically enables Ray Reconstruction, replacing two denoisers with a unified AI model that enhances the quality of ray tracing, making gameplay more immersive, and graphics more realistic. In addition, Ray Reconstruction runs up to 14% faster in our benchmarks, further accelerating performance for GeForce RTX gamers.

The combination of NVIDIA technology gives NVIDIA GeForce RTX Gamers the ultimate Alan Wake 2 experience, with beautiful graphics and a remarkable performance uplift. Here are a few examples:

• At 4K, with every setting maxed and full ray tracing enabled, activating Frame Generation, Ray Reconstruction and Super Resolution sees frame rates multiply astronomically. On the GeForce RTX 4090, performance multiplies by 4.1X, enabling owners to play Alan Wake 2 at its very best at over 120 FPS at 4K! The GeForce RTX 4080 sees its performance multiplied by 4.7X, and the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti multiplies performance by 4.7X, for max setting 4K gameplay at nearly 80 FPS
• At 1440p, GeForce RTX 40 Series frame rates multiply by an average of 3X with full ray tracing and every other setting maxed out, enabling 80 FPS+ gameplay on the GeForce RTX 4070 and above
• At 1080p, the most popular gaming resolution, performance multiplies by 2.7X on average, enabling owners of faster cards to play at up to 190 FPS

The Fully Ray Traced World of Alan Wake 2

Full ray tracing, also known as path tracing, accurately simulates light throughout an entire scene. It is used by visual effects artists to create film and TV graphics that are indistinguishable from reality, but until the arrival of GeForce RTX GPUs with RT Cores, and the AI-powered acceleration of NVIDIA DLSS 3.5, real-time video game full ray tracing was impossible.

In Alan Wake 2, RT High and RT Medium settings use path tracing. For full details, the following table shows which settings utilize path tracing, and what ray-traced features are available when enabling each preset.

If DLSS Ray Reconstruction is disabled or not available, the following fallbacks will apply:

As you lay eyes on the Cube 360 and Cube 240, you’ll be immediately captivated by their striking cube-shaped water blocks. Crafted with brushed aluminum and embellished with three-dimensional pyramid-shaped ARGB LEDs, these water blocks exude style and compatibility. They’re designed to fit most AMD and Intel socket designs, including the upcoming Intel LGA 1851 socket (HEDT sockets are the exception), making them incredibly versatile for a wide range of setups.

But the real power lies within the compact 4000 RPM pump concealed within the radiator. It can move a remarkable 96L/h of liquid with a water pressure of 1.5mH2O. Thanks to its single-piece impeller design, it’s not just powerful but also impressively quiet and durable.

Let’s talk about those radiator fins – they’re rectangular, making them more robust and minimizing vibrations. What’s more, they greatly increase the surface area for outstanding heat dissipation. To top it off, rectangular enhancement folds on both ends of the fins bolster the water block’s resistance against pressure and bending, ensuring you won’t accidentally damage them during installation.

Now, the water channels have undergone a significant transformation. With the addition of 12 water channels, each 2mm wide, the liquid’s cross-sectional area and radiator efficiency have surged by 46.7%. Water flow has also seen a substantial 33% boost compared to earlier models.

And don’t get us started on the ARGB vortex fans paired with the CUBE 240 and CUBE 360. These 120mm wonders reach speeds of up to 2000 RPM while maintaining whisper-quiet operation at less than 34 dB(A). Whether you’re pushing your CPU to the limit with demanding AAA games or customizing your desktop with unique geometry and ARGB lighting, the Cube 360 and Cube 240 are guaranteed to be game-changing additions to your setup.

Pricing and Availability
​AZZA Cube 360 is currently priced at $99.99 while Cube 240 is listed as $79.99.
Both are available on Amazon, respectively Cube 360 here and Cube 240 here, or you can find them on Newegg, Cube 360 here and Cube 240 here.
