NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 3060 12 GB has now landed back on retail shelves and comes at a time when global DRAM supply is facing a major crisis .

Now would have been the time that we would have been getting our first real information on the NVIDIA RTX 50 SUPER series , a soft-refresh of the first generation of Blackwell GPUs that launched earlier last year. Yet, NVIDIA is forced to relaunch its 5-year-old graphics card, the RTX 3060 12

Apple is expected to mirror the iPhone X's launch cadence back in 2017 for its upcoming foldable iPhone, tentatively called the iPhone Ultra or the iPhone Fold, as per the latest musings of the legendary Apple-centric analyst, Ming-Chi Kuo, who expects subdued sales volume for the foldable in Q3 2026, stretched lead times in the first few months, and a free-for-all bonanza for scalpers.

Apple’s laser-focused efforts are currently to bring CXMT as a supply chain partner for DRAM in an attempt to reduce shortage risk rather than seeking competitive prices, as AI datacenters are estimated to hoard more than 60 percent of memory shipments by next year. While the Cupertino firm attempts to appease the steadfast Trump Administration, a new report discusses a development in which CXMT has begun R&D on a new kind of DRAM that can maximize both performance and capacity, all while using older DUV machinery.

A new

Not every AI model belonging to Anthropic will churn out the results the way you hoped, but the company’s Claude Fable 5 will certainly attain a legendary status for those who wish to port all-time classic titles like Command & Conquer: Generals Zero Hour to iOS, macOS, or iPadOS without running into any headaches. One person reveals how effortless the job is, not to mention that the native version of the game is working on an iPad with touchscreen support.

The first piece of the puzzle was gift-

Visionary game designer Hideo Kojima , largely known to the mainstream as the creator of Metal Gear Solid and Death Stranding , recently chimed in on Sony' s unpopular decision to stop making PlayStation discs starting in January 2028 .

Kojima, a huge movie buff, was a guest of the Italian film festival Il Cinema in Piazza (which takes place annually in Rome) and answered this question with his usual thoughtfulness and keen insight. He is understandably sad, but also pointed out that this is just "step one"

Apple’s “go to” chipset packaging for its A-series of chipsets was InFO-PoP (Integrated Fan-Out Package-on-Package), which had its uses, but in the age of artificial intelligence, the technology was quickly becoming dated and introducing a ton of limitations, including thermal problems for running on-device AI operations.

Thankfully, if there was one positive outcome for the AI boom, it’s that companies like Apple have been encouraged to research and develop newer packaging, as

It never did make much sense for Apple to procure DRAM from CXMT for exclusive use within China. After all, the DRAM's specs are decidedly inferior, suitable only for budget offerings that do not command much volume within the Asian giant's market.

Even so, a major US bank has now offered a simpler explanation behind Apple's willingness to risk the ire of the Trump administration, and it all might have to do with negotiation leverage.

First, the Financial Times reported recently that Apple was lobbying the

In what might come as a surprise, especially given Apple's ballooning memory-related costs, the A20 Pro chip that is slated to power the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max will likely use the cutting-edge 96-bit LPDDR6, departing from the 64-bit bandwidth that Apple has used for around 13 years now.
