Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

AMD is merging its consumer "RDNA" and Data Center "CDNA" GPUs under one unified architecture with the announcement of UDNA. AMD Plans To Bring Some Serious Competition In Next-Gen Markets, Merges RDNA & CDNA Families Into UDNA Architecture For The Future Team Red is transitioning its business model to something much more massive, likely targeting a larger market share. AMD has looked determined towards its upcoming RDNA 4 lineup, as this is not just based on the firm's statements; previous leaks have indicated that the firm has "sharpened the blade" and is ready to hit the mainstream markets more aggressively […]
All NVIDIA partners will have to wait for a few weeks before they can have the GeForce RTX 4070 Super chips from the GPU giant. AIBs are with limited GeForce RTX 4070 Super supply as NVIDIA stops shipping AD104 Chips After releasing the RTX 4070 with GDDR6 memory due to the GDDR6X memory shortage, NVIDIA is now delaying shipping the GeForce RTX 4070 Super chips to its partners. As reported at Chinese Board Channels, it is suggested that all the RTX 4070 Super orders have been bounced by NVIDIA and the GPU manufacturers will have to wait until the last […]
AMD is expected to launch at least four GPU SKUs within its Navi 48 & Navi 44 powered RDNA 4 "Radeon RX 8000" family. AMD's Navi 48 & Navi 44 "RDNA 4" GPUs To Get Two SKUs Each As Radeon RX 8000 Series Now Positioned At Mainstream Gamers Yesterday, it was reported that AMD will be shifting the priority from the high-end and enthusiast GPU market segment to the more mainstream audience which is something that the company has tried in the past with its Polaris and first-Gen RDNA(1) family. As the recent RX 7000 didn't manage to get enough […]
Chip manufacturer Intel Corpration's contract manufacturing plans have apparently been dealt with a setback as wafer tests run by Broadcom's analysts have failed to yield satisfactory results, according to sources quoted by Reuters. These tests covered Intel's leading edge semiconductor technology, 18A, and after Intel shipped its customer the wafers last month, Broadloom's tests concluded that the process technology was not ready to move to high volume production. Semiconductor production takes place in phases, with high volume production being one of the final stages after chip manufacturers have fine tuned their equipment before feeling comfortable to risk thousands of wafers […]
NVIDIA's upcoming Blackwell "GeForce RTX 50" GPUs might be affected by changes in the launch schedule due to data center prioritization. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 "Blackwell" GPUs Could Be Affected By Data Center Chip Design Changes NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 50 "Blackwell" GPUs are going to be the next major launch for the graphics market on PC platforms. These chips are anticipated by a lot of gamers and enthusiasts who are planning to upgrade from their older RTX GPUs. However, certain roadblocks might affect launch schedule for gaming Blackwell chips. We recently reported that it made specific changes to the Data […]
A recent listing at NBD seems to point out an upcoming chip that has GDDR7 memory as part of the CPU, pointing to a potential AMD APU. AMD or Someone Else Might Be Preparing An APU With On-Package GDDR7 Memory Recently, a new entry has been made at the logistics and shipping database, NBD, which lists the latest GDDR7 memory from Micron as part of the CPU. This is quite interesting since GDDR7 DRAM almost doubles the bandwidth over GDDR6 memory and will be the standard used for next-gen of GPUs, especially from NVIDIA and its Blackwell-based RTX 50 series.

AMD is reportedly working on a new BIOS patch that will help improve inter-core latency on Ryzen 9000 "Zen 5" Desktop CPUs. AMD's Ryzen 9000 "Zen 5" CPUs To See Further Improvements As Red Team Plans To Roll Out BIOS Patch To Improve Inter-Core Latencies AMD's Zen 5-based Ryzen 9000 Desktop CPUs didn't provide the performance uplift we all expected. Even though one of the reasons for this can be attributed to the poor optimizations for Windows 11, it's not the only reason. The unoptimized Core Parking is one of the culprits resulting in slower performance than ideal, supposedly due […]
The worldwide market share of the Linux operating system has reached nearly 4.5%, suggesting an increase in user interest over other OS. The Linux OS market share can hit 5.0% in early 2025 with the current trend The open-source Linux operating system is seeing a rapid increase in popularity in 2024. This is the first time that Linux OS has hit a record 4.44% worldwide market share, making it the third most popular OS among all. Windows remains the number one, followed by macOS X at the second place. While several various OS make up a higher share than the […]
Intel's CPU market share is starting to drop down drastically as consumers now deem AMD's Ryzen CPU offerings to be a much better option. Intel Is Having a Hard Time Sustaining The Markets As The Firm Unable To Recoup Consumer Trust Following CPU Instability Issues Well, it won't be wrong to say that Intel's CPU dominance in the DIY market is in a declining trend, or this is what figures report, given that a report from the Korean IT component and system selling platform Danwana shows that Intel CPU sales have dropped down massively, giving AMD the edge over market […]
With the help of Arm CPUs, Microsoft Copilot+ "AI PC" laptops are expected to see huge growth from 800K shipments in 2024 to over 58 million units by 2029. Arm-based processors are forecasted to drive Microsoft's Copilot+ "AI PC" laptop sales by annual growth of up to 534% in 2025, x86 To Retain Its Dominance The huge demand for AI hardware has impacted the PC sales of specialized hardware dramatically in 2024. The AI PC shipment growth has doubled in the second quarter of 2024 compared to Q1 and is now expected to increase exponentially next year. According to Omdia's […]
NVIDIA's CEO Jensen Huang is planning to visit Taiwan to attend the Intelligent Asia 2024 "automation-focused" event. NVIDIA Now Sees Taiwan As An Integral Part Of Its Business, Continues To Stay Close To Regional Companies & Activities The hype around "humanoid" robots is pretty massive these days, given that firms like NVIDIA have shown huge optimism about the growth of this particular segment. Just recently, we talked about how the automation market is moving towards a valuation of $50 trillion, and in the midst of it, Team Green is here to yet again capitalize on a fair share of the […]
The Biden administration's CHIPS Act initiative hasn't worked out quite as expected, as the Financial Times reports that 40% of large-scale investments are either halted or delayed indefinitely. US CHIPS Act Hasn't Managed To Achieve Its Primary Objectives, $84 Billion Worth Of Projects Remain Unsettled For those unaware, the CHIPS Act was introduced by the US Government in 2022 in an attempt to promote domestic semiconductor growth and attract giant industry players to set up facilities in the US. The scheme brought in $400 billion worth of incentives in the form of tax credits, loans, and grants, and in light […]
