Intel is announcing today that it is the first to support 8000 MT/s DDR5 RDIMM on its Xeon 6 platform, while 2nd Gen MRDIMM with up to 8800 MT/s is coming to select Xeon 6 SKUs with faster bandwidth to tackle high-end AI workloads.
Moving data faster is becoming essential as Agentic AI workloads continue to scale. That has pushed data center chipmakers into adopting next-gen solutions, and Intel is leading the race with its Xeon 6 CPUs being the
NVIDIA's Jensen Huang brought his distinctive charm offensive with him when he travelled to Japan in mid-July, prompting the Chairman of Sumitomo Electric to declare that Huang has the "spirit of a Japanese business leader from the post-war era."
As we reported recently, Jensen Huang had a few drinks and munched on Yakiton at a pub in Kanda, Tokyo, during his mid-July visit to Japan. He also made a surprise visit to the Build-a-Claw event in Tokyo, Japan,
TSMC's CFO Wendell Huang shared last week that the firm is seeing strong demand from US customers. The executive's comments came after the Taiwanese firm's latest earnings report, which also saw it announce an additional $100 billion investment in the US. Huang outlined that TSMC's 3-nanometer facilities in the US should come online by the second half of next year and added that the costs of building facilities in the US were higher than in Taiwan.
TSMC's latest $10
Samsung presents a stark dichotomy these days: while its memory unit is literally minting gold, its consumer-facing units are languishing deep in purgatory.
The same memory-related tailwind that is now allowing Samsung DS to earn more profit this year than what it earned cumulatively over the past 40 years, continues to act as a potent headwind for other units.
Against this backdrop, Samsung has just culled nearly 800 roles within its consumer electronics-related operations in the US, while trying to leverage the excuse of
As if the profits garnered from general-purpose DRAM weren’t enough for the three memory giants Samsung, Micron, and SK hynix, these companies also planned on deepening their pockets through the development of custom controllers for CXL (Compute Express Link), a next-generation technology designed to expand a server’s capacity. However, realizing that their lucrative customers won’t entertain spending a premium, the big three have reportedly abandoned development plans and are sticking with a universal input for standard DRAM.

NVIDIA is tackling "Fake News" with a new tool that is designed to help detect synthetic videos, called Synthetic Video Detector, which will be part of the NVIDIA NIM microservices.
With advancements in AI video generation, we're seeing videos that are indistinguishable from real video. While these videos have valuable use cases, they also pose a problem. If we cannot tell the difference between a synthetic video and a real one, it can erode public trust when videos are presented as news, as something that came from
NVIDIA Graphics Research has presented 22 technical breakthroughs at SIGGRAPH 2026, advancing Simulation and Physical AI.
At SIGGRAPH, NVIDIA's Graphics Research has published 22 technical papers with the aim of advancing Physical AI and Simulation through leveraging its real-time and AI-assisted technologies.
NVIDIA is using AI to build real-time systems to generate physically accurate virtual worlds for both virtual purposes, for enjoying inside the virtual world, but also to build AI systems and real things inside the real world. All
NVIDIA has enabled DGX Station users to run personal AI agents locally through its NVIDIA Agent Toolkit, which can be set up in just three steps.
Agentic AI has brought new kinds of use cases for PCs, especially powerful ones such as NVIDIA's DGX Station, which packs the GB300 "Blackwell Ultra" GPU. To make full use of its power, NVIDIA is offering its Agent Toolkit software, which unleashes these capabilities in just 30 minutes (the time it takes to set up the software)
While Nintendo continues to double down on the Switch 2 security with consistent firmware updates , the modding scene for the current-generation system by the Japanese company has hit a significant milestone earlier this month, as developer Gezine has uncovered a userland exploit for both the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 that bypasses the biggest limitations of existing entry points , making it more possible than ever before for the first homebrew software to run on the system .
As reported by Nintendo Everything today, developer Gezine confirmed the breakthrough on X . "I
ADATA's chairman has said that there's no need to discuss the AI bubble yet since DRAM shortages will last another 10 years.
Following TSMC's recent stock decline after its earnings call, ADATA's chairman quickly responded to questions about whether this could be a signal of the AI bubble popping up. Chairman Chen Li-bai refuted this, and said that it's way too early to discuss anything related to an AI bubble, as that talk should only be discussed by 2030
