For a configuration including a powerful CPU like Ryzen 9800X3D and one of the best mid-range GPUs on the planet, a price tag of just $1,100 seems like a steal.
Once again, we see another lucky buyer snagging a complete PC build for almost half the price one would have to pay in the RAMpocalypse era. We used to see such stories a lot in recent weeks , but these are still rare and occasional. While some users are happy to grab
A little more than a week after unionized members of the Build a Rocket Boy staff took legal action against the studio's leadership for installing spy software on work devices that allegedly violated data protection laws, Chris Wilson , a former animator who worked at the studio for the last six years and has worked in the video game industry for more than two decades has come forward to share just exactly what it was like working on MindsEye under former Rockstar producer Leslie Benzies and his co-chief executive officer, Mark Gerhard .

Memory makers are enjoying a huge boost to revenue as AI demand has earned them more in a single quarter than the entire previous year.
The AI crunch continues to devastate the consumer markets as component prices go up; at the same time, memory makers are seeing an astronomical rise in their profit margins.
So there are two things to factor here, first is that memory demand is at an all-time high due to AI firms requiring more DRAM for their servers. The second is that since memory is in short supply
TSMC is all set to double its 2nm production capacity through five state-of-the-art fabrication plants to meet global AI and chip demand.
Recently, we shared how TSMC is gearing up to boost its 2nm and 3nm wafer output aggressively by the end of 2026.
Now, the company is reportedly going to double its 2nm capacity output to meet "explosive" demand for AI and compute. As such, TSMC has set up five wafer fabs, all entering ramp-up
Former ZeniMax Online Studios founder and studio head Matt Firor has finally spoken openly about Project Blackbird 's cancellation .
Firor, who was behind the successful release of The Elder Scrolls Online and its continued support for many years, left the studio following Microsoft's decision to cancel the project after many years of development. Shortly after that news, he admitted that the two things were directly related.
Now, , he provided a lot more color on why he feels the decision to shut down Project Blackbird is a missed opportunity for
As Samsung's unionized workers grow ever bolder, egged on by the rapidly fattening purse of its memory business , which has spurred calls for pay/bonus hikes from other divisions as well, Samsung is eyeing the nuclear option of definitively splitting up the conglomerate by spinning off its semiconductor-focused Device Solutions (DS) division.
The top echelons of Samsung's management appear to be in a panic mode ahead of an impending workers' strike, so much so that they are apparently willing to consider and promote heretofore unthinkable
Users can now mix and match DDR5 memory on the latest Intel platform to achieve better tuning without worrying about compatibility.
At a time when DDR5 RAM prices are at an all-time high, many are looking at the JEDEC industry standard RAM modules, which typically bring lower clocks out of the box compared to Intel XMP or AMD EXPO-enabled memory modules. These adhere to strict standards and operate at a particular frequency, timing, and voltage. It's well-known that, unlike XMP and EXPO
Lisuan's 7G100 gaming graphics card will launch on 20th May, becoming China's first fully domestic 6nm GPU with WHQL certification.
China's first domestically produced 6nm GPU for gaming audiences is launching on 20th May, bringing wider support, and the biggest of all, for drivers, joining the ranks of Intel, NVIDIA, and AMD.
This makes Lisuan Technologies the first Chinese GPU maker to achieve WHQL certification, marking a significant progress for domestic producers. Lisuan
Intel continues to see increased confidence for its upcoming Foundry technologies, such as 18A-P, 14A, and EMIB.
The Agentic AI and Inferencing boom has led to a significant surge in CPU demand. This has led major semiconductor companies such as TSMC to face severe supply constraints, all the while going on a large-scale expansion spree to meet demand . At the same time, Intel has been driving revenue up by selling off salvaged dies , but the company is also attracting the attention of various
One shouldn't expect any significant improvements even with higher VRAM capacity, and this was obvious since there are no other upgrades.
GeForce RTX 5070 and RTX 5070-powered systems are enjoying huge popularity. To tackle the GPU shortages, NVIDIA has announced that it will now be supplying the RTX 5070 with 12 GB VRAM for the mobile platforms, which will be equipped with 3 GB GDDR7 memory modules. The existing RTX 5070 laptop GPU brings just 8
