Intel's Core Ultra 200S (codenamed Arrow Lake) series, which includes some of the best CPUs , already supports the best RAM available on the market. But the chipmaker isn't stopping there. Intel is continuing to improve memory support in the upcoming Arrow Lake Refresh processor family. According to an Intel datasheet (via Uniko's Hardware ), we can now confirm those chips will offer even better memory compatibility out of the box.
With Arrow Lake Refresh,
On this day in 1996, a freshly inked U.S. patent quietly laid the cornerstone of the digital music revolution. In addition to facilitating this now vast internet-based entertainment business, the humble MP3 file format would propel broadband proliferation, usher in the iPod era, and arguably precipitate the iPhone and all the other touchscreen-slabs that remain indispensable gadgets to this day.
MPEG Audio Layer III (MP3) files were devised by scientists
Like many China-based semiconductor producers that have been hit with U.S. export restrictions, CXMT is one of the companies that prefers to fly under the U.S. government’s radar, so it rarely shares its achievements publicly. Nonetheless, from time to time, the company has to showcase its latest products to attract potential customers. Recently, the company disclosed that it had developed DDR5-8000 and LPDDR5X-10667
Trumpf, the manufacturer of the lasers used in ASML's EUV chipmaking tools, is turning to quantum computing to explore new ways to optimize its lasers. Trumpf is teaming up with its partners from Fraunhofer ILT and the Dahlem Center at Freie Universität Berlin to explore whether modern quantum computers can indeed be used more effectively than today's classical supercomputers. If quantum computers prove to be more efficient, they could improve next-generation CO2 laser systems.

With Black Friday right around the corner, many people are likely on the lookout for deals to upgrade their wireless network. Wi-Fi 7 is the current standard for consumer routers, and luckily, there are plenty of discounts available for those who don't want to spend hundreds of dollars. One of them is the TP-Link Archer 3600, which is currently selling for $86.99 at Amazon, with a $5 instant coupon
Just as it did with the RTX 5090 and RTX 4090, Nvidia created a China-exclusive variant of the RTX Pro 6000, the RTX 6000D, only for the Cyberspace Administration of China to ban the product and encourage adoption of homegrown AI accelerators.
Despite those restrictions, someone has benchmarked the now contraband 6000D in Geekbench 6.5 , GPU boasting an OpenCL score just ahead of the RTX 50
A power outage at one of TSMC's suppliers in Arizona interrupted production at the firm’s Fab 21 in late September, prompting the company to scrap some of the wafers that were in production at the time, according to reliable insider Tim Culpan . A TSMC representative confirmed to Tom’s Hardware that a power outage at a TSMC supplier occurred, but did not confirm if any losses occurred.
The disruption of power supply originated at Linde, a British industrial-gas specialist contracted
As the worldwide AI gold rush continues apace, the United States government continues to signal an urgent need for American leadership in this still-murky field. Yesterday, President Trump signed a new executive order outlining what the administration calls the Genesis Mission , an initiative that seeks to spur a nationwide effort to make the U.S. the world leader in AI technology and its practical application.
The White House's press release emphasizes the importance of its existing AI Action Plan, and compares
Stop the presses, because this might just be the best Black Friday deal that we’ve seen so far. Newegg has caught bargain fever with simply unbelievable prices on two Asus AM5 motherboards for AMD CPUs, throwing in 16GB of DDR5-6000 RAM for free on both boards.
RAM prices are astronomical at the moment, costing more than a PS5 in some cases, which makes this Asus
There's a lot of misinformation out there about what actually constitutes a competitive advantage in gaming. However, one upgrade that can actually make a difference is an analog keyboard, which lends you faster response times and variable actuation features.
While Hall-effect (magnetic) switches are typical here, optical switches can be just as effective, and we've found a great deal on that tech. Right now, you can get Razer's Huntsman V3 Pro TKL for
