AMD's 3D V-Cache technology completely changed the CPU market, letting AMD take the lead with its X3D CPUs in gaming. The powerful and leading gaming performance of Ryzen X3D CPUs isn't the only factor why a lot of enthusiasts go with these CPUs, but their power efficiency is another major factor that offers users the highest performance per watt. Since the release of the first-ever Ryzen X3D CPU i.e., the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, AMD has been actively preparing more and more X3D CPUs based on different architectures. This has increased the potential of X3D CPUs to the point that building […]
Since the previous sales milestone for Persona in March 2024, the series has gone on to sell a whopping 23.5 million copies across the globe, with the sales including both physical and digital. In March, it was reported that the Persona series had sold 22.6 million copies. This was announced shortly after the release of Persona 3 Reload, which sold more than one million copies in less than a week. The Persona series is continuing to expand and become more popular, as it was once considered a niche series. However, as announced in Sega's Annual Integrated Report for 2024, the […]

Speaking With GTAVIoclock, former game designer at Rockstar Games, commented on the next entry in the open-world series launching next year, saying that the developer has raised the bar again in terms of realism and NPC behavior, which will blow everyone away and will be talked about many years after launch. The former developer also talked about mission design, saying that it will be what makes […]
2024 is all about generative AI coming to smartphones, and we started seeing this trend with companies like Samsung introducing on-device AI on the Galaxy S24 series. Then, chip makers started talking about how AI is going to arrive on their SoCs, as well. Now, we are hearing that Gemini Nano is going to help bring on-device generative AI to mid-range devices. After flagships, it is now time for the mid-range devices to enjoy Gemini Nano with MediaTek's Dimensity 8300 getting some neat optimizations MediaTek has announced that it is working with Google to integrate and optimize Gemini Nano for […]
MediaTek enjoyed a healthy revenue run thanks to the arrival of the Dimensity 9300. According to the latest data, the Taiwanese fabless chip maker’s flagship SoC contributed towards a 70 percent revenue growth last year, making it one of the most successful launches in the company’s history. MediaTek is now expected to launch the Dimensity 9400 in the fourth quarter of this year, and the shift towards a cutting-edge second-generation 3nm process should aid the company in repeating history, assuming the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 does not gain sufficient traction during this time. Overall, the Dimensity 9300 contributed towards more […]
MediaTek will challenge Qualcomm later this year with the Dimensity 9400, but even if it obtains orders from various Android phone makers, the Taiwanese firm’s biggest win will be securing Samsung as a client for future orders. According to the latest rumor, the Korean giant is being appeased with an exclusive discount, where MediaTek’s SoCs can be adopted in upcoming smartphone models. MediaTek chipsets might only be adopted on Samsung’s budget-focused smartphones; no flagship launches are in sight due to an agreement with Qualcomm Qualcomm has sufficient breathing room for now because a rumor shared by tipster Revegnus reveals that […]
The Dimensity 9400 will be MediaTek’s first 3nm chipset that is said to take advantage of TSMC’s second-generation lithography, resulting in increased power efficiency and other benefits. As for when the SoC gets an official unveiling, the company CEO Rick Tsai stated that it will arrive in the fourth quarter of the year with boosted AI capabilities to rival other high-end smartphone chips. Alongside the Dimensity 9400, we should see Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 in action, which is also said to be mass produced on TSMC’s advanced 3nm process. Dimensity 9400 to adopt the same CPU cluster as Dimensity […]
MediaTek previously announced that it has successfully developed the 3nm SoC with TSMC, making it 32 percent more power-efficient than previous-generation silicon, though the exact name of the chipset was not mentioned. Now, the Taiwanese company’s CEO has spoken about the close partnership with its foundry partner, stating that both entities are working together to launch its first 3nm product, which is rumored to be called the Dimensity 9400. TSMC, and MediaTek could be working together to optimize efficiency for the Dimensity 9400, as just like the Dimensity 9300, it will reportedly lack low-power cores Comparing 2024 with 2023, MediaTek […]
A report from Economic News Daily states that MediaTek won Wi-Fi 7 chip orders from a ‘leading American tablet brand,’ threatening Broadcom’s monopoly in the process. Given that Apple is the most dominant player in the tablet market at this time, the report is probably referring to the Silicon Valley giant, but an analyst does not believe that the Taiwanese fabless chip maker has received any orders from Apple. Regardless, MediaTek is still expected to supply those Wi-Fi chips, but not in the tablet category. MediaTek to start supplying Apple with Wi-Fi chips for peripherals and the Apple TV, starting […]
MediaTek has managed to surprise its competitors with the Dimensity 9300, shifting to a new CPU cluster and GPU pairing that outpaces the top-tier competition. With chipset orders for the Taiwanese firm increasing, Morgan Stanley analysts state that the latest SoC is the most powerful in the market right now and will aid MediaTek in taking its global market share to new heights. A spike in Dimensity 9300 orders will allow MediaTek’s market share to rise up to 35 percent in 2024 A new report from Bloomberg states that MediaTek’s stock has risen by nearly 40 percent since the end […]
The Dimensity 9300 did not stick with a traditional CPU cluster like the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 this year, with the biggest difference between the two chipsets being the lack of efficiency cores on MediaTek’s current flagship SoC. While the advantage here is that the Dimensity 9300 can deliver incredible overall performance by surpassing Apple’s A17 Pro GPU, it is at the expense of increased power consumption. In a new CPU stress test, the crack in the silicon’s armor has been displayed, all the while running in an Android flagship that has a capable cooling solution. Vivo’s X100 Pro’s vapor chamber is […]
TSMC only had one customer for its 3nm ‘N3B’ process, which was Apple, but in 2024, a new report states that the semiconductor manufacturer is expected to witness a double-digit increase in revenue for this category as it aims to add more partners for its long-supported cutting-edge node. With this growth, the company’s 3nm wafer production is also said to reach 100,000 monthly units by the end of next year. Qualcomm, MediaTek, Apple, and others will reportedly adopt TSMC’s new 3nm ‘N3E’ process, contributing to the manufacturer’s revenue Alongside mass producing wafers to be used by various chipset makers, China […]
