    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Rumored to Feature 24 GB of 21 Gbps GDDR6X Memory - tech
    (hx) 09:44 PM CEST - May,11 2022 - Post a comment / read (4)
    NVIDIA fans who have been speculating that green team’s next flagship gaming graphics card would feature a similar memory configuration as the current champion might be correct after all. Habitual leaker kopite7kimi has returned with some new rumors regarding the upcoming Lovelace-based GeForce RTX 40 Series, and they suggest that the GeForce RTX 4090 will feature 24 GB of 21 Gbps GDDR6X memory, just like the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti. The GeForce RTX 4080 and GeForce RTX 4070 will also supposedly feature 16 GB and 12 GB of VRAM, respectively. The GeForce RTX 4090 reportedly rocks the AD102 die and is likely the flagship silicon for Nvidia’s next-generation lineup. The graphics card may arrive with 24GB of GDDR6X memory at 21 Gbps. That’s the same recipe Nvidia used for the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti. Therefore, Nvidia may not push the memory limit for this generation, seemingly maxing out at 24GB as the chipmaker did on Ampere.

    It will be a similar case for AMD’s RX 6750 XT. The game clock will reach 2,495 MHz instead of 2,424 MHz. The boost clock will top out at 2,600 MHz as opposed to 2,581 MHz. The memory clock speed will be 18Gbps instead of 16Gbps. Bandwidth will increase to 432GB/s from the previous 384GB/s. All of this will push the RX 6750 XT to a TBP of 250W as opposed to 230W for the standard 6700 XT.

    NFT fans lose millions in video game real estate sales - tech
    (hx) 09:07 AM CEST - May,08 2022 - Post a comment / read (7)
    The creator of the most recognizable NFTs available is again in the news for the wrong reasons. Bored Ape Yacht Club creator Yuga Labs recently made its Otherdeed collection available for purchase. It advertised the NFTs as a way to provide users with the ability to obtain land in its upcoming crypto-based MMORPG. Unfortunately, many fans instead walked away with nothing but disappointment, high transaction fees, and stolen funds. Yuga Labs sold Otherdeed NFTs via Opensea. The collection sold (or at least tried to sell) tokens to claim real estate and resources in Yuga's upcoming metaverse game, Otherside. The NFT drop netted approximately $310 million in just a few short hours. Unfortunately for Yuga Labs, the sale generated far more traffic than expected on the Ethereum blockchain. This increase in traffic resulted in Ethereum gas fees of up to $14,000 for some users and failed transactions for others. Gas fees are charges passed on to users to compensate for the computing energy of processing Ethereum transactions. To make matters worse, some who experienced failed purchases were still charged for the energy costs. According to Crypto Briefing, users paid $165 million in gas fees during the sale due to Otherside's poorly developed smart contract code.



    The attack resulted in millions of dollars in NFTs being stolen and sent to scammer's wallets. ZachXBT, a self-proclaimed crypto "rug pull" (scam) survivor and on-chain transaction investigator, has identified several fraudulent sites and wallet addresses, one of which appears to have earned more than $5 million from unsuspecting users.
    SEC Fines Nvidia $5.5 Million for Insufficient Crypto Disclosures - tech
    (hx) 09:04 AM CEST - May,08 2022 - Post a comment / read (2)
    The SEC issued a $5.5 million fine to Nvidia after determining it failed to declare critical sales data in its 2017-2018 revenue reports. The slap-on-the-wrist penalty was accompanied by a formal statement that Nvidia did not disclose cryptomining as a significant source of its revenue growth during the period in question, thereby depriving potential investors of crucial information. The Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) May 6 press release cited Nvidia for "Inadequate Disclosures about Impact of Cryptomining." The SEC alleges that Nvidia did not report their increased crypto-based sales as required by Form 10-Q, instead attributing the increase to gaming-related growth. The omitted sales information and fluctuations left investors with an incomplete picture of the company's performance, which is key to analyzing business risk and investment potential. Nvidia did not confirm or deny the allegations of improper disclosure and agreed to a cease-and-desist order accompanied by a $5.5 million penalty.

    Unfortunately, even spending $5K does not get a good pre-built gaming PC. You'd think it'd get you the best pre-built PC of 2022, but it doesn't even get you the best pre-built gaming PC of 2015. This thing is built to decades-old standards and manages to throttle just about every component in the system through either power or thermals, and the noise produced is that of a mid-2000s Gateway.

    Booting Windows XP on a 1MHz Pentium CPU takes three hours - tech
    (hx) 09:37 AM CEST - May,01 2022 - Post a comment / read (4)
    It is probably safe to say that very few people wonder what will happen if you try to run an old Windows version on a processor that is 233 times slower than the minimum recommended spec. If that question bothers you, NTDev coincidentally has the answer. NTDev, a Windows enthusiast with the fitting motto "Trying stuff so you don't have to", decided to install Windows XP on a system with a 1MHz Intel Pentium CPU, which is not enough to run even Windows 3.0 from 1990. The result of running a relatively modern operating system with the processor speeds from the 1970s (Intel 8088, for example, works at 5 to 16MHz clocks) is not surprising: just booting to the desktop takes three hours. The system also manages to open a simple app to display CPU clocks, but it takes a tremendous amount of time to launch, and the app itself is not very stable. Finally, shutting down Windows XP on a 1MHz CPU ended with a BSOD.

    NVIDIA Allegedly Testing a 900 Watt TGP Ada Lovelace AD102 GPU - tech
    (hx) 11:32 PM CEST - Apr,27 2022 - Post a comment / read (6)
    With the release of Hopper, NVIDIA's cycle of new architecture releases is not yet over. Later this year, we expect to see next-generation gaming architecture codenamed Ada Lovelace. According to a well-known hardware leaker for NVIDIA products, @kopite7kimi, on Twitter, the green team is reportedly testing a potent variant of the upcoming AD102 SKU. As the leak indicates, we could see an Ada Lovelace AD102 SKU with a Total Graphics Power (TGP) of 900 Watts. While we don't know where this SKU is supposed to sit in the Ada Lovelace family, it could be the most powerful, Titan-like design making a comeback. Alternatively, this could be a GeForce RTX 4090 Ti SKU. It carries 48 GB of GDDR6X memory running at 24 Gbps speeds alongside monstrous TGP. Feeding the card are two 16-pin connectors.

    Another confirmation from the leaker is that the upcoming RTX 4080 GPU uses the AD103 SKU variant, while the RTX 4090 uses AD102. For further information, we have to wait a few more months and see what NVIDIA decides to launch in the upcoming generation of gaming-oriented graphics cards.

    European Union MEPs Agree on Making USB Type-C the Standard Charging Connector - tech
    (hx) 12:13 AM CEST - Apr,25 2022 - Post a comment / read (2)
    This past week, the EU's Internal Market and Consumer Protection Committee agreed on adopting USB Type-C as the union's standard charging connector, with 43 votes in favour and two against. It's part of the Radio Equipment Directive and it means that USB-C is now very close to becoming the de facto connector for charging a wide range of consumer electronics. The charging standard will apply to what the committee calls small and medium-sized electronic gadgets and include mobile phones, tablets, digital cameras, headphones and headsets, handheld videogame consoles and portable speakers. Exemptions will apply for devices that are too small to incorporate a USB-C port, such a smart watches, health trackers and some sports equipment.

    The directive still has to be approved by the EU parliament, which is expected to happen in May during the plenary session. There will be an initial transition period and the new requirements aren't expected to start to apply until early 2024. In addition to the new directive, the MEPs also want to see clear labelling on devices in terms of how much power they can deliver, since this can sometimes be hard to figure out as a consumer. They also want to see clear labelling on product packaging if a charger is supplied or not. Furthermore, the MEPs want the European Commission to present a strategy with regards to wireless chargers by the end of 2026, to make sure there's some kind of minimal interoperability between the various wireless charging standards. This is said to be to try and avoid market fragmentation, as well as to reduce e-waste and to try and prevent consumer "lock-in" to proprietary charging standards. The EU is said to end up with 11 to 13-thousand tons of e-waste from chargers alone on a yearly basis, so it's not hard to see why the union wants to see a unified charging standard for most electronics.

    TSMC to Start 2 nm Production by 2025, 3 nm by the End of 2022 - tech
    (hx) 05:33 PM CEST - Apr,18 2022 - Post a comment / read (2)
    Responding to investor questions in TSMC's first quarter earnings call for 2022, CEO C. C. Wei reiterated that the company's upcoming manufacturing processes are generally moving smoothly throughout development. Even as TSMC announced historic revenues on the back of increased pricing throughout the semiconductor industry, the company is showing no signs of slowing down on its development. When further asked regarding the company's ability to navigate the world's troubled, inflation-ridden waters, Wei added that TSMC's strategic positioning as the leading semiconductor foundry makes it resilient to market and demand fluctuations.

    TSMC's roadmap has seen multiple accelerations of late, which have placed 3 nm tape-out to occur before the end of the year. Perhaps more significantly, the company's next-generation 2 nm manufacturing process, which will make use of GAA (Gate All Around) transistor designs for greater design efficiency and density, are still on track for a 2025 volume production following an expected 2024 tape-out.

    (hx) 11:07 PM CEST - Apr,14 2022 - Post a comment / read (1)
    The new AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D is here, and it's the fastest gaming processor the red team has ever made. It also offers a value proposition Intel's elite gaming CPUs cannot compete with, even if they are actually the faster chips in the final reckoning. But that doesn't change the fact that AMD's new chip is a technically impressive beast, using the latest packaging processes from TSMC to bung an inordinate amount of cache into its new CPU. The Ryzen 7 5800X3D is architecturally identical to the standard Ryzen 7 5800X, using the same Zen 3 processor design, and therefore the same chiplet setup that has made AMD's recent generations of CPU such world-beaters. The original Ryzen 7 5800X runs at 3.8GHz with a 4.7GHz boost clock, while this new chip comes in with a 3.4GHz base and 4.5GHz boost clock. The “3D” in the model name refers to the additional 64MB of vertically-mounted L3 cache (V-Cache) that AMD has attached on top of the CPU die. The new chip features 96MB of L3 cache in total and a slightly lower clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 5800X. Overall, AMD is claiming a 15 percent improvement in gaming.
