During his GTC 2021 keynote , Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang revealed a roadmap for its upcoming GPUs, CPUs, and DPUs. We've already covered the Grace CPU , which should arrive in 2023, but the more interesting bit for gamers is the GPU. While Nvidia listed the GPU as "Ampere Next," we expect the GPU codename will actually be Hopper. That means Nvidia's next CPU and GPU combined will be Grace Hopper, after the computer

Realtek Chip Shortage Is More Bad News for PC, Components Market

It seems that Realtek has joined the long list of supply chain bottlenecks. DigiTimes today reported that the company is struggling to meet demand for the various chips manufacturers use in their notebooks, automobiles and other kinds of devices.
In the story, DigiTimes remarked that Realtek has extended their delivery lead times to 32 weeks as the capacity of the foundries is currently tight and there are shortfalls in the supply of the necessary raw materials.
Those chips are found in a wide variety
Galax HOF Teases Overclockable DDR5 Modules: Onboard VRM and PMICs?

As DDR5 memory and supported platforms are approaching their launch, more makers of sophisticated DRAM modules are teasing their upcoming DDR5 products. Galax did exactly this today.
"DDR5 memory module is coming soon," a statement over Galax OC Lab on Facebook reads.
The post also shows a palette of Micron's DRAM chips marked as ICA45 D8BNJ R6KB, which are not currently listed at the company's website, but which we understand are the
Nvidia's Arm-Powered Grace CPU Debuts, Claims 10X More Performance Than x86 Servers in AI, HPC

Nvidia introduced its Arm-based Grace CPU architecture that it says delivers 10X more performance than today's fastest servers in AI and HPC workloads. The new chips will soon power two new AI supercomputers and come powered by unspecified "next-generation" Arm Neoverse CPU cores paired with LPDDR5x memory that pumps out 500 GBps of throughput, along with a 900 GBps NVLink connection to an unspecified GPU for the leading-edge devices.
Nvidia also revealed a
Watch Nvidia's GTC 2021 Keynote Here at 8:30 am PT

Nvidia's annual GPU Technology Conference (GTC) kicks off today at 8:30 a.m. PT. Due to the Covid-19 restrictions, the chipmaker will be holding the event online with over 1,500 sessions, covering a broad spectrum of topics.
It wouldn't be a GTC without a keynote from Jensen Huang, which the CEO will deliver from his kitchen again. Don't forget that Nvidia is still hosting its GTC 20
Raspberry Pi Project Sanitizes Masks with UV Light

Bringing home a used face mask can harbor unseen and unwanted bacteria. But we've noticed something over the years—where there's a problem, there's a Raspberry Pi solution! Today's project tackles this issue and is known as the Box of Hope, developed by Jan-Hendrik Ewers, Sarah Swinton, and Martin Karel.
The best Raspberry Pi projects help make life easier, and this project takes a lot of guesswork out of mask sanitization. The
Hack Boosts Video Encoding For Nvidia's Consumer GPUs

Back on Saturday we reported that Nvidia's GPU virtualization capability only enabled on select GPUs for datacenters can be unlocked using a rather simple hack (albeit only in Linux) on GeForce and Quadro graphics cards for client PCs. Apparently, this is not the only datacenter-exclusive feature that can be enabled on client GPUs. A user created hack seemingly removes the restriction on the maximum number of video encoding sessions.
Graphics cards that companies such as AMD, Intel, and Nvidia sell to operators

Ryzen 5000 Pro Zen 3 APUs Can Be A Game Changer For Businesses

HP has been unintentionally exposing AMD's Ryzen 5000 (Cezanne) APUs. Apparently, the tech giant (via momomo_us) has also shared the specifications for the Ryzen 5000 Pro lineup via the one of the company's support documents .
The Pro series, which is oriented to business and professional users, utilizes the same formula as its mainstream counterparts. Ryzen 5000 Pro APUs come equipped with the same potent Zen 3
