Intel Nova Lake-S Desktop CPUs are going to rock some impressive iGPU capabilities, with up to 40 Watts being dedicated to graphics alone.
The Intel Nova Lake-S (Core Ultra 400S) Desktop CPU family is expected to feature a powerful iGPU variant. A few months back, we reported that Nova Lake Desktop CPUs would feature a 12XeP iGPU configuration . It was later unveiled that the 12Xe3P iGPU would come in desktop, Edge, and mobile configurations. The Edge
In a wild experiment, we saw how this modder went from traditional heatsink to a direct water-cooling method to achieve very low temperatures.
TrashBench does some crazy things, and this one was a wild experiment. The modder has been doing some amazing mods, such as installing a full-fledged CPU cooler directly onto a GPU, but this one was on another level. The modder wanted to try "direct water" cooling on a GPU, and as you may assume, it's not like the AIO cooling
It can be difficult to purchase an RTX 5090 as a standalone product in some regions, which is why some retailers are now bundling these high-end GPUs with more products.
Something unusual is going on in Taiwan, and it's tied to the high-end RTX 50 series GPUs. Previously, we saw a Taiwanese retailer selling RTX 5080 in bundles since the product wasn't available as a standalone product. Some retailers been doing this due to GPU shortages and high prices
It's been four years since the AMD AM5 motherboard platform and the 600-series motherboards launched. Since its launch, the platform has seen the launch of several CPUs in the Ryzen 7000, Ryzen 8000, and Ryzen 9000 families. While the 600-series motherboards provide great features & compatibility with newer Zen 5 CPUs, motherboard makers are always looking to enhance user experiences through the latest technologies, so AMD has introduced a new chipset
As AI customers race away with DRAM orders to fuel the ongoing crisis, customers and companies alike would adopt smarter ways to preserve existing computers and hardware so that they would be put to better use instead of landing in an e-waste pile. However, a former employee claims that a technology company he worked for isn’t following any of these procedures and is destroying highly capable MacBook Pro models equipped with 48GB of unified memory.
Getting rid of a completely functional MacBook Pro in the middle of the DRAM crisis
Prior to NVIDIA’s official announcement of the RTX Spark , the chip named N1X showcased some disappointing single-core and multi-core scores on Geekbench 6, failing to beat Apple’s older-generation M3 Max . Fortunately, a fresh leak shows some improvements from the ARM-based silicon, as it’s managed to narrow the multi-core performance gap with Apple’s 14-core M4 Max.
Two machines with 64GB of unified memory have been spotted on the
T-Mobile's CEO has chosen to be dismissive of SpaceX's recent braggadocio, terming the threat posed by Elon Musk's cellular ambitions as "exaggerated" and lacking any particularly strong utility in solving consumer-centric problems.
And yet, this seemingly cavalier attitude on the part of T-Mobile might belie its hidden fears. After all, SpaceX possesses a wide array of strategic assets, including well-endowed coffers, a vast constellation of satellites, and Elon Musk's relentless ambition serving as a
Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick was chatty as usual in today's Q1 FY 2027 earnings call, giving a lot of space to GTA 6 (as expected) but also addressing rising hardware costs with optimism about cloud gaming as a solution.
When quizzed on the matter, he reckoned that increased hardware prices aren't a significant headwind for Take-Two's games because of strong demand for the publisher's titles (he's mainly referring to GTA and NBA here, in all
One RTX 4090 owner should consider himself lucky that he chose ZOTAC because never once did the U.S. RMA team refuse an accommodation to entertain a warranty claim. In fact, this person is now the proud owner of an RTX 5090 after the older flagship GPU was sent for RMA four times. Looking at this incident, other companies should take lessons on how to retain loyal customers, especially during the DRAM shortage .
NVIDIA’s previous-generation consumer-grade GPU king, the
The Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), in partnership with the National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU) in Taipei, Taiwan, has made a key breakthrough for next-generation transistor design. TSMC and the NYCU have demonstrated that instead of focusing on depositing new materials on the transistor channel, a better approach is to engineer the channel material to create a buffer before adding the insulating material and then the gate to control the electron flow across the transistor.
Most of today's chips rely on either FinFET (
