Podcast #761 - NVIDIA's Insane AI Growth, 14900KS Imminent, Corsair A115 Air Cooler, CoolerMaster sues + MORE!

After a couple of weeks we are back at full strength, and it will take our combined willpower to withstand the might of NVIDIA's ridiculous earnings report. We also talked about the reported listings for a 400W Core i9-14900KS, took a look at Corsair's A115 air cooler, and Josh reviewed some food.  And also you can now trade one benevolent OS vendor for another with a Windows 10 -> ChromeOS upgrade!  Plus other topics, found in the time stamps below.Recorded February 21, 2024.Timestamps:00:00 Intro02:14 Food with Josh05:18 NVIDIA's insane quarter (is this AI stuff sustainable?)18:49 Intel Foundry news23:21 Reports of a 400W Intel Core i9-14900KS26:15 AMD paused the RX 7600 XT launch in China due to competition from AMD27:28 A brief mention of the new Cooler Master AiO lawsuit28:29 Ryzen 8000G STAPM issue was fixed33:46 Google Flexes a ChromeOS alternative to Windows 1136:28 Josh talks about Arm44:51 (in)Security Corner56:13 Gaming Quick Hits59:40 (GQH continues) Intel CPUs causing Unreal Engine crashes?1:07:57 Corsair A115 air cooler tested1:17:14 Picks of the Week1:27:17 Outro ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Josh is back, but Brett was stuck at work - so we podcasted as a trio for the second week in a row. And this time, somehow (without Brett to add stories to the list), the entire show is just over 45 minutes long.

Podcast #759: Radeon RX 7900 XT Drops to 699 USD, Ryzen 8000G Thermals, ReBAR Mod for Older PCs + MORE!

Josh abandoned us this week to stream himself virtually attending a Flight Simulator event, so you will have to contend with a trio of cranky people as we discuss another week's PC industry news. Sorry in advance - though Jeremy did walk us through Josh's burger segment.  There's still plenty to panic over in the Security Corner, and some AI coming to Google maps - just what we needed.Recorded February 7, 2024.Timestamps:00:00 Intro02:25 Jeremy Presents: Food with Josh04:20 AMD drops Radeon RX 7900 XT price to 699 USD05:49 Ryzen 8000G STAPM issue awaits firmware fix07:58 TSMC might not be jumping on the High-NA EUV bandwagon yet11:39 Resizable BAR mod for systems as old as Sandy Bridge?15:24 Running Win10 on older hardware?

Another week, another NVIDIA SUPER launch. But this is the last one, we promise. (We hope.) You probably already know it's barely any faster than the original, but it's $200 less (in the USA anyhow) so who cares, right??We talked about more stuff, too like why security is terrible and a cool game named "Judas".  Also, just check the time stamps below. Recorded January 31, 2024 using digital recording technology unheard of in the Middle Ages.Timestamps:00:00 Intro02:10 Food with Josh03:59 RTX 4080 SUPER review12:33 Josh's Soapbox (and further GPU rambles)18:05 AMD's 2023 results are in25:57 Microsoft Teams outage27:35 Edge is taking over Chrome (just a  "bug" so don't worry)30:38 Are process nodes reality, or marketing?37:34 Security Corner45:26 Gaming Quick Hits50:34 Fosi Audio ZA3 dual-mode amp review58:32 Picks of the Week1:06:29 Outro ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Recorded live in GPU City, where a mutagen spill has radically altered our minds, but somehow left our bodies unchanged...and without any ninjutsu proficiency.

It's the first podcast of the new year, and we are less than a week from CES 2024. What is in store? If we ignore the inevitable deluge of AI integration into every imaginable consumer electronic device at the show, possibly some affordable-ish graphics cards. We can only hope. Also, AMD might have some interesting Zen4/RDNA3 APUs.   Dial in some security scares and some gaming news, and boom:  we have a show.Oh, and Josh had another burger.Timestamps:00:00 Intro01:44 Food with Josh02:58 CES predictions04:15 The rumored Radeon RX 7600 XT07:10 NVIDIA is teasing a GPU10:18 A Ryzen 8600G appears14:01 Windows 11 can't escape the shadow of Windows 1017:30 MSI is offering a Gen5 SSD with a massive heatsink attached21:43 The oldest-known version of MS-DOS ancestor 86-DOS found23:10 (in)Security Corner32:27 Gaming Quick Hits38:19 Picks of the Week48:12 Outro ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
