Devices Tycoon changes
Devices Tycoon continues to move toward deeper realism. Today I want to introduce a completely reworked CPU & GPU editor for your devices — one of the most complex and detailed systems in the game so far.
As you may remember, Devices Tycoon includes a Real History Mode. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been researching, verifying, and adding real CPUs and GPUs with accurate specifications from 2006 to 2025. Integrating real-world processors requires extreme attention to detail, which is why news updates were delayed — but the result is a much more flexible and authentic hardware editor.
The total number of real processors added just for smartphones, tablets, and laptops has exceeded 3,000 models. This foundation allows you to fine-tune your devices like never before.
CPU Editor
In the CPU & GPU editor, you’ll now start by choosing the type of processor you want to use:
Manufacturer CPU
Custom Manufacturer CPU
Your Own CPU
Your choice directly affects the cost.
For example, if you want to improve the performance of a manufacturer’s CPU, you’ll need to request a custom processor. This option is more expensive, but it gives you much greater control over the parameters.
The most budget-friendly option is using your own processors. I’ll talk more about the custom CPU editor in future updates.
GPU Editor
The GPU editor has also received major improvements. As you know, most processors include an integrated GPU — and now you can fully control how it’s used.
You can either keep the manufacturer’s integrated GPU or customize it further.
For mobile devices, you can choose:
Manufacturer iGPU
Custom iGPU
For laptops, you’ll have even more flexibility:
Manufacturer iGPU
Custom iGPU
Manufacturer dGPU (discrete graphics card)
Custom dGPU
Your own GPU created in a separate editor
I’ll cover the custom GPU editor in upcoming news. Keep in mind: any custom hardware changes increase production costs, which directly affects both device price and profit margins.
Visual Improvements
I’ve also updated the internal layout design of laptops. You can now visually see the components you’re using or modifying, making hardware decisions clearer and more immersive.
This new CPU & GPU system gives you full control over performance, cost, and strategy — whether you’re chasing efficiency, raw power, or profitability.
Thank you to everyone supporting the game and adding Devices Tycoon to their wishlist — I truly appreciate it!❤️
