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

🤐🙄 🤔 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.

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.

God news is still god news. Microsoft is also facing a lawsuit for using pirated books to train its AI model. Today we learned that Microsoft is facing a class-action lawsuit led by a group of authors who claim the company used their books without permission to train its artificial intelligence model...

Also Jayz got his hands on the XOC vbios. AMD have found a new way to cut costs... AMD changes the Ryzen 7 7800X3D PCB by removing some MLCCs, are they unifying the substrates? Many users started reporting from China that the overclocking headroom had dropped by 300 MHz compared to the original PCB , which also required more VCore as standard , for the same TDP . So there is no advantage? Yes, a lower temperature. At the moment, this new PCB has not been tested by any analyst for the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, which being the sales leader in many countries around the world, is gaining new interest for obvious reasons, especially for those who want to push it to the limit. How much will they save removing a few MLCCs ? 2-3 cents?

Yup. GN's conclution was to be expected. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang begins sale of $925M worth of Nvidia stock — sale of 6 million shares barely dents his $123 billion in shares Just last year, its executives and directors sold over $1.8 billion in Nvidia stock, with Jensen raking in $713 million in cash after selling six million shares — the same amount planned for this year.

Not the best results but Corsair is smart enough to continue offer 2x8-pin to 12v-2*6 cables on the 2025 refresh. Due this you get loads of 8-pin connectors. Corsair HX1200i ATX v3.1 (2025) power supply review – Efficient, quiet and not quite cheap A note on the pair of 8-pin connectors powering the device’s 12V 2×6 cable instead of a native connector. In my professional opinion, this is better and safer as the load is spread across two larger connectors rather than a single one, which helps to keep operating temperatures lower under high load. It also makes it easier to bend the appropriate cable closer to the side of the power supply without the risk of damaging the connector and increasing the resistance of certain conductor cross-sections or pins.

Yup. Designed in the US. Not made in the US. The Trump T1 phone is most likely manufactured in China. Not "Made in USA": Successful launch of Donald Trump's T1 Phone despite misleading specs Trump T1 Phone's product page has removed all claims that the device is made in USA. Using the WayBack Machine, we can see what the website was previously before any changes were made, where it clearly states the phone was "made in the USA." It's disappointing to see the Trump Organization make this change after receiving at least thousands of pre-orders for the device, especially considering that the USA-made aspect was the main selling point. https://www.tweaktown.com/news/106050/trump-phone-drops-made-in-usa-claim-after-thousands-of-preorders/index.html What you have learned from this.... All that glitters is not gold All that glisters is not gold— Often have you heard that told. Many a man his life hath sold But my outside to behold. Gilded tombs do worms enfold.

Intel going the opposite way. No need for skilled employees if you prefer outsource your product production. Almost as the new Intel ceo Mr. Lip work for their competitors. Harsh cost savings can often have the opposite results in the long term. And Intel continue off-load own products. Less need for workers and production capacity. Cut into the bone. Intel Sacrifices Its Automotive Sector! Semiconductor industry faces critical talent crisis — one million additional skilled workers needed by 2030 Not enough engineers for the semiconductor industry Semi's projections indicate that by 2030, the chip industry will need to hire around one million additional skilled workers worldwide. If you use the cheapest parts for your products you can set lower prices. But nvidia could easily use GDDR7 and still sell it for $250 and have good margins. Use of slower GDDR6 is greed. Intel and AMD use GDDR6, so Nvidia just follow same paths. Max profits over better products.
