Mark Zuckerberg says they will lay off 8,000 Meta employees to justify the $145 billion increase in AI investment Every technology company is completely focused on AI and allocates a large part of its investments there. NVIDIA admits: "AI is more expensive than workers, but companies ignore it," so why are there so many layoffs? The use of AI has spread everywhere, and companies and individuals are increasingly using it in their daily lives. The proportion of people using it at work has skyrocketed in recent years

Already too late and too little..... Microsoft admits Windows 11 lost its way, Nadella pledges to "win back fans" Microsoft built Windows 11 around web wrappers and Electron apps. Now it's trying to undo that.

And it continue @Mr. Fox Microsoft need hire new engineers. AI can't fix it. Only stupid think so. Windows 11's April update is now breaking third-party backup apps Windows 11 update KB5083769 is causing software failures with several backup programs. Microsoft hasn't released a fix yet.

The Tax lottery continue in the US. Is this ok @Mr. Fox? At least you get cheaper Whiskey from the Great Britain. No extra tax money for this "KING DEAL" going this to the US government. Aka less money will be shuffled back to the billionairs @electrosoft🤔 That has to be the good thing about this. "In honor of the King and Queen of Great Britain, who have just left the White House, I will remove the tariffs and restrictions on whiskey," Trump wrote in the post. Trump removes whiskey tariffs after royal couple visit – The King and Queen made me do something that no one else could make me do, almost without asking!, Trump writes on Truth Social Thursday afternoon. Jup, the Joke is real. Directly from the source.

Microsoft confirms Remote Desktop bug in April's Windows 11 update Windows 11's April 2026 updates are causing Remote Desktop display errors on multi-monitor PCs. Microsoft offers two workarounds for now.

Hmmm. Galax has left the PC market. Same did EVGA in the days. Thank's Nvidia for your effort to support gamers/tech enthusiasts and the oc'rs community. GALAX, Creators of Iconic HOF Graphics Cards, Exits PC Business After 30 Years, Palit Takes Over Business & All RMA Support GALAX Is No More, Graphics Card & PC Brand Exits The Industry With Palit Taking Over Control Palit Consolidates Galax Brand Operations and Closes Hong Kong Office Palit has confirmed a significant shift in its brand strategy, with the Galax graphics card brand now being repositioned to focus primarily on the Chinese market. As of April 1, 2026, Galax has been fully integrated into the Palit Group’s internal operations, effectively ending its role as a widely distributed global GPU brand. The change could mean that Galax-branded GeForce RTX graphics cards will no longer be commonly available in international markets. With the brand’s strategic shift, it remains unclear whether the HOF series will continue in its current form or be adapted for the Chinese market. US/global China first. Exactly as Nvidia with Jensen wants.

Microsoft is ruining their operating system because their focus is mostly on low power trashbooks and phone processors. They can't seems to understand the difference between Jokebooks and powerful desktops. The arm and power saving aera has to stop. Before it's too late. Windows 11 is secretly throttling your apps - here's how to catch it Windows 11 quietly slows background apps to save power. It's easy to find throttled processes, and sometimes, it's better to take back control of your CPU. Windows 11 throttles background apps to save power, and it's not always right about which ones deserve it. Power Throttling at the system level and Efficiency Mode per process in Task Manager handle this. With Windows version 25H2, both have gotten more aggressive, even on desktops that aren't on battery. Yup, everything is all about trashbooks and power savings. When will they start understand that most people want a working and powerful pc instead of a pc that's always on standby? Is a pc meant to be off all time bro @Mr. Fox?🤔 Microsoft quietly improved Windows 11 25H2, 24H2 Modern Standby Microsoft has new default settings for Modern Standby and S3. There are also several improvements under the hood on Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2.

Hmmm. May I smell coming inflation in the US ? Yup, I think so.

Now you need pay premium or even extra for good quality power cables from PSU manufacturers/ODM/OEM. And if you are happy with the cheaper OEM cables from said company you may be screwed. What next? Send the bill to Jensen because his love for cute small GPU PCB design hence the fragile GPU power connector? He won't pay. That's on you. Charging around $40 to $50 more for what is still a GPU power cable makes the safety angle harder to accept, even if the engineering does appear to reduce connector stress. ASUS puts a $50 tag on safer GPU power cables, ROG Equalizer now has a price

I just can't wait for Win 12 and even more buggy updates😀 Any reason I should upgrade from Win 10 LTSC to the new modern, buggy and flawed @Mr. Fox🤐 Windows 11 KB5083769 leaves computers stuck in a loop, with blue screens and pixelated errors: Microsoft Learn suggests resetting the PC as a last resort Microsoft: Windows 11 KB5083769, KB5082052 updates causing Remote Desktop issues

Yup, the speed of the forum is awful. Equal awful as this cooling design.... What a fantastic design. Why not cut of more of the cooling fins? The more you cut the more you save🤐 And where can you spot if the tiny trash melt with backplate lid closed before it's too late? Nice we are born with a nose so we can smell the smoke from burnt electronics🙄 MSI GeForce RTX 5070 Ti VENTUS 3X PZ OC Review - Hidden Cable, Visible Performance Why not just scrap the whole idea with hybrid cores? Only because Intel can make new software for optimizations on the latest and greatest and then scrap/forget prev gen Intel chips? Hmmm. Intel’s Hallock Blames Software, Not Silicon, For Gaming Gap — Claims 30% Performance Is Hiding Behind Poor Optimization Robert focused on the same, highlighting the importance of proper software optimizations that can fix these issues. We have seen how the scheduler behavior becomes a crucial aspect in gaming workloads. While Intel's hybrid CPUs rely on Thread Director, the performance ultimately depend heavily on multiple factors like OS, game engines, background processes, power plans etc.

It's called instant karma...😀

The cry baby is greedy....... NZXT issues statement on RTX 5090 AIO leak case, says it actually offered more than $4,300 The company added that it made “five separate compensation offers,” including “a brand-new ASUS ROG Astral RTX 5090 sourced at retail” and “a cash settlement at current market value.” NZXT made five separate compensation offers, including a brand-new ASUS ROG Astral RTX 5090 sourced at retail and a cash settlement at current market value. On February 27, NZXT accepted the customer’s own counter-offer of $4,378. He then added new conditions and did not sign. — NZXT This statement changes the picture around the case and suggests NZXT made a stronger effort to resolve it than the original Reddit post indicated. Based on the company’s account, it is not immediately clear why the customer rejected an offer at that level.

I fix it for you 🙂 How much extra should the second 3Dv-cashe cost? And how much less should lower max boost clock cost vs 9950X3D ? 🤔 The Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 is a failure: 0.8% faster than the 9950X3D and blacklisted for critical media outlets to publish reviews

Hmmm. AMD want pretty premium for the second 3D v-cashe. But $900 USD will be cheap compared to next gen Intel chips with bLLC (Big Last Level Cache). Can't remember have seen mainstream processors going above $900 USD the last two decades. If AMD had the balls and priced it at $999 it would be in HEDT territory. So close but no cigar Could be there is still some hope for people with less outcome... Intel plans to launch overclockable budget CPUs In overall application performance, the Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 looks like that KS-style chip, offering a minor 3.9% jump over the 9950X3D in multithreaded performance when taking common workloads into account. AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 review: More cache, more cash No Ryzen 9950X3D2 for TechPowerUp, Gamers Nexus, or ComputerBase We're not alone. As VideoCardz noted in their review roundup, Gamers Nexus reacted strongly after being denied a sample, ComputerBase, one of the top publications, was also denied, just like many others that you know for their deep, methodical testing—exactly the kind of reviews that dig into cache behavior, inter-CCD latency, power scaling, and per-game CCD parking quirks, which on a part like this are arguably the whole story.

I have never been happy about the stupid cut out on the backplate to reduce thermal paste costs. Have mentioned this several times. Always a bigger risk damage the GPU with this stupid backplate design. Yep, it can happen anyway but the risk is still less with proper made full cover backplate and extra thermal paste above the chips also reduce the temp on the whole GPU and PCB. NZXT AIO leak damages RTX 5090 ROG Astral, company offers $2,855 but user says it is not enough to replace the card

Well derserved bro @Mr. Fox?

New tech for old Papusan bro @Prema🙂 Norway have a very good varranty (5 years whatever happens). The old robot failed and the tech service failed to fix it. All money back. Bought the brand new flagship for this year from Dreame and got a free handheld vacuum cleaner due the intro offer due this is brand new model. I paid $350 on top of the refund and got this two babies for the wife. Happy Wife... Happy life🤩 What I think... Modern vacuum robots won't last 5 years. This means I' will get new models without paying much extra years forwards. First paid for one, then you can just upgrade to next flagship model for free and at minimum costs above the refund when it fails. Look at it this way... No new technology is meant to last. At least not for as long as 5 years. I'm going to seize every opportunity to exercise my Norwegian consumer rights @Rage Set🙂

Not sure what you mean. From what I know only MSI offer XOC tools. But I haven't seen it in use outside of some fab clockers/elite. Edit. Also Galax offer own XOC tool. But only for own cards (5090D and 5090D2).

You can get the xx.xx.xx.50 Asus XOC but the efficiency is pretty bad from the Asus XOC. This is one of the few options if you can't use the Matrix/Lightning vbios due fan problems/move some resistors to make it work on Asus. But running the GPU at 1000W without chiller/huge custom cooling for the GPU ain't what I would do. Benchmarks... Yes but not as dayly 24/7 usage. X-flash vbios versions for better performance this gen have been a mess. Even with the better stock Gigabyte vbios without custom cooling create a mess with the fans. Especially if you have Asus cards. Even retail Lightning can't use their own XOC firmware. So pretty screwed. See also....
