There will still be trade between US and China. But China's own population will buy more and more own home made products. Same as with US. They prefer have production for what they need by themself. If they can't, they'll always find ways around the problems. China: Sales of foreign smartphone manufacturers fell by 9.7%. Bad news for all foreign smartphone manufacturers in China, as they are experiencing a significant drop in sales. But I really hope they stop with this below. But greed is common and greed make you do wrong decisions....

I mean he should have tested with 5000 series cards as the 5090. They perform slight different vs 4000 series in some benchmarks with RBar enabled/disabled. Both wrong and both right🙂

A minor start. But this should have been done on day one when they issued the ban. All too late. US reportedly plans to curb sales of AI GPUs to Malaysia and Thailand to prevent smuggling to China The sad truth about AMD's latest gen graphics cards... This is just embarrassing. Greed over common sense (Wrongly priced and not offer enough cards and in several SKUs). Yep, yet again have F. Azor failed hard as AMD's Chief Director of Gaming Solutions. RTX 5090 more popular than all RX 9000s on Steam!

Those that make the Linux distros have a huge opportunity to get bigger userbase.. They need to fix it. This has to be first priority over making more pretty GUI. Windows 11 is becoming synonymous with Copilot+ PCs, while Linux is now a real threat Interestingly, a group called End of 10 has been pushing for users to transition to Linux as Windows 10's end-of-life approaches. Its campaign encourages Windows 10 users to ditch the Windows ecosystem entirely and switch to Linux with their outdated devices. The small group is using a lack of ads and telemetry tracking as the key selling points to get users to make the transition.

And be you sure. Nvidia know it. Why produce more parts for cards that no one will buy? Just cut the production. The production capacity can be used for more profitable products than "cheap" 5090's. Yup. And when empty what then? Why should nvidia produce even more 5090s when they can use the wafers other places? Just produce after demand. Shipping takes time, and maybe Nvidia has produced what they can deliver to come ahead of the tariff hell "if it happens". Afterwards... Nobody really knows. But Nvidia is known for making money. Not for welfare. On the flip side.... For all my US friends. Have a happy 4th of July "tomorrow". Already 4th here home🙂

Yup, it seems July is the month you see the bottom of the prices. Then they will creep upwards. From 14:15

We may see a change once the EOL date have passed in Oct. And new pc's (prebuilt junk/Jokebooks and tablets) still flood the market. And I guess all of them have Windows 11 installed. Of course Win 11 will take over the marketshare.

Right in time before prices start stabilizes at bottom and may go creep upwards again. And I expect Nvidia will prioritize 5090D v2 for China. 24GB vram cards for 5090 prices for China at +$2000 is also a huge win. And only god knows how many real 5090 will be smuggled into China when the people see they being scammed by Nvidia with the v2. 24GB vram cards for $2000 is hard to swallow. The Blackwell gen cards will stay here yet another two years, so.... Keep track of inventory of "cheap" gamer cards to maximize profits is damn important task. NVIDIA is also preparing for a new AI accelerator for China as well, that would be a Blackwell-based GDDR7 solution, so the focus will be shifted towards this market segment. These SKUs paired with the dumbed down 5090 will keep the wheels running busy at the factories. Also 3GB memory chips will surely fly off the shelves for premium/inflated prices once China has figured out how to make them work with 5090's. NVIDIA Rumored To Slash GeForce RTX 50 Production To Prioritize AI Chips NVIDIA has been busy with its AI chips in a world with rapidly increasing demand, to quench the thirst of heavily invested tech corporations. And as such, it may further reduce GeForce RTX 50 series GPU production to focus even more on its more profitable data center products. How much of a reduction are we talking about? As spotted on Gazlog/Chiphell by WCCFTECH, its said total inventory levels may decrease by as much as 30%, which can mean higher prices are likely here to stay for the foreseeable future. Assuming the report is accurate, of course. From greed to managing the world of technology... The US administration (government) sold their soul for rare earth metals. I hope this is wrong and not correct. US lifts China's export ban on chip designs: They need its rare earths This has an immediate impact . Through software, Chinese companies can restart stalled projects , improve existing designs, and plan new chips competitively.

Maybe the prices for RTX 5050 should be lowered as well. Asus want wopping $289 for their best custom 5050 card. Of course Nvidia didn't want a review of these graphics cards. At least the brand new 5050 can beat the old RTX 3060 released 4.5 years ago. That's something, Huhhh. The New Game Changer is up in tests.... After another review-less launch, the first RTX 5050 benchmarks are here — Nvidia's budget card loses to B580 and RTX 4060, with only multi frame generation to give it a boost

LOL Now Microsoft has completely screwed up: Destroying Alt+Tab in new update Skip the optional update KB5060829 if you use the keyboard shortcut frequently. Microsoft admits issues in Windows 11 June 2025 Update with Print to PDF

🤐🙄 🤔 Yup, for US. Not here. Maybe the tariff war force people re-think what they buy. At least they can return it within the return window. Edit. Not great time spend a lots of money you don't have. Damn sad see the direction it heads... I have seen the middle class in US will get 1% lower taxes from the ‘One Big Beautiful Bill’. Some even less. But above $200.000 and you may get 4% less tax. The winners is as always the rich that don't need to return what they already bought. +10% tariffs and increased inflation from it on top of that are hard to bear/swallow. 1-3% less tax won't help much to lower the pain. The best pain-killer is as always to return what you shouldn't buy in first place. And hope you get back your money.

This is status while Nvidia still struggle fix weird bugs with loads of hotfix drivers patching previous hot fix drivers released a week before for their latest and greatest released a half year ago. On top nvidia haven't much time for previous gen graphics cards as 2000/3000/4000 series due all their problems with latest gen 5000 series cards. Yep, this while AMD now put more resources on improving performance for Radeon cards. Once Nvidia is out with the Super cards (refresh to make more money) then expect new rounds with WHQL drivers neeeding loads of hotfix drivers making havoc in their whole GPU stack. Often with week between them being released. AMD’s Latest Drivers Improve Radeon RX 9070 XT’s Performance By Up To 27%; GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Is Now Slower Overall....

The real reason Intel headed into graphics cards... They wanted their share from the AI market. Jul 01, 13:42 Intel confirms Arc Battlemage GPUs will expand into Edge/AI market in Q4

Hmm. Wire gauge become thincker the lower numbers. 12V-HPWR cables use 16 gauge. Exactly same gauge as older 8-pin cables from an quality PSU. But the pitch is different vs the good 8-pins connectors. Hence the old 8-pin connectors can run colder. Aka more space beween the pins. The damn 12+4 pin connector is alll too small and tiny. Should have been double the size. And with more space between the pins. This way they could use thicker pins with more spacing in between in the terminals and thicker wires as etc 14 gauge copper wires for the cable. 6x12V power pins is enough if you make the connector properly from the beginning. But now it's too late make a real major change for the tiny trash 😞 The term "pitch" typically refers to the distance between pins in a connector, like a 2.54mm pitch in a DuPont connector. The 12V-2x6 doesn't have a standard pin pitch. The pitch of the 12V-2x6 connector, also known as the 12VHPWR connector, refers to the distance between the center of one pin to the center of the next pin. Edit. From Jonny Guru... In reality, those 8-pin connectors can handle more current because you have 4.2mm pitch terminals vs. 3.0 pitch and they're spread out more which helps dissipate heat. This is nice. When you feel you got an amazing deal paying MSRP🥴 RTX 5000 graphics cards get deep discounts at Newegg — RTX 5070, 5060 Ti, and 5060 all fall to low prices ahead of Prime Day

Nvidia open up for an possible 5080Ti/5090DD. Because the 5080 refresh as the Super is only a minor upgrade. So virtually no performance improvements. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 SUPER: An RTX 5080 with more memory The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 SUPER is primarily a disappointment because it doesn't close any performance gaps with the GeForce RTX 5090. According to well-known leaker kopite7kimi . We are looking at the same graphics chip as the RTX 5080, we are talking about the NVIDIA GB203 , although in its GB203-350-A1 version. The biggest problem is that it offers the same configuration of 10,752 CUDA Cores , 336 Tensor Cores and 84 RT Cores. That is, there is no improvement. The only real upgrade this gen from Nvidia is the 5070 Super... More vram and a small upgrade for cuda cores. But welcomen when you see the other Super SKUs useless upgrades. The GeForce RTX 5070 SUPER is said to come with only 6,400 CUDA Cores and… 18GB of VRAM. According to well-known leaker kopite7kimi , the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 SUPER will arrive with the NVIDIA GB205-400-A1 graphics chip . This chip will offer a 6,400 CUDA Cores configuration , which is only 256 more CUDA Cores than the GeForce RTX 5070.

60% performance uplift with double amount cores (if this rumours is from the 52 cores cpu). I hope this MT uplift don't include the IPC increase. But Intel have a long time forwards to tune their next gen chips. Intel Nova Lake performance leak claims 10% single and 60% multi-threaded uplift

This is the main problem with AMD. They go greedy and go after same price point as Nvidia but offer worse features. It's amazing to see that AMD always are able to find exactly same performance target as for nvidia long before the Geforce cards is released. They even branded the card xx70 (XT) tier SKU long before nvidia was out with their new xx70 Ti cards. Last time they did the same was when they said they went after xx80 performance and scrapped offer High end. They knew exactly where the performance level was for xx80 cards. Almost as they get all the info needed directly from Nvidia. They even price their cards after nvidia's recommended prices (MSRP). Just adjust it a bit below and hope low availability can inflate prices so they match Nvidia. AMD is nothing other than a nvidia light version.

Yup, Microsoft prefer more bloat over anything. SteamOS thrashes Windows 11 on the new Lenovo Legion Go S with up to 83% more FPS

LOL Not only lying but the engineers/marketing teams are just plain stupid. Microsoft says that 'Windows 11 PCs are up to 2.3X faster than Windows 10 PCs', neglecting to mention that it's comparing apples to bowling balls

AI makes us worse at thinking for ourselves Several new studies indicate that frequent use of AI tools like ChatGPT can impair our cognitive abilities. @Mr. Fox As you can see.... AI make us more stupid. And modern people will be feeded with uncorrect info. So double up... You became more stupid and the stupidity make it so you don't see what's wrong with uncorrect info you beeing feeded with. Isn't that stupid?

Have you something to add in for this? Windows 11 is 2.3 x faster than Windows 10, LOL Regarding increased security....With all the bugs they add in the security claims is not correct. Same as with Nvidia.... You can optimize security and functionality on older products if you give it same love as for the newest and most shiny. Stupids!!! Microsoft claims Windows 11 is 2.3x faster than Windows 10, so upgrade The company also suggests that increased PC security is another reason in favor of upgrading to Windows 11.
