Can a graphics card be 2.5x faster than an RTX 5090 in path tracing and use 80% less power? Bolt Graphics claims its Zeus GPU-powered models do just that (www.pcgamer.com)

All of that oddness pales when compared to the performance claims that Bolt Graphics is touting, though. None of the figures in the technical document or website are actual, hands-on test results, as they're 'pre-silicon' results, theoretically determined by the software used to design the chips.

Oh, it's all made up performance specs.
