Apple finally included a telephoto lens in its iPhone 15 Pro Max last year, with the upgrade extended to the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. This is just one of the many examples of how the Cupertino firm adopts various standards much later than the competition, likely because it wants to offer the best configuration to customers. One other technology that the company is said to bring for the iPhone 18 that rivals like Samsung introduced years ago is variable aperture for the main camera, and according to one analyst, another supplier will provide these parts. Sunny […]
The use of TSMC’s second-generation 3nm process for the M4 series has made Apple’s latest chipsets more thermally efficient, but that does not mean that a capable cooling solution should be ignored from the rest of the hardware configuration. In fact, depending on how robust that solution is, we can actually get more performance from the M4, as demonstrated in the latest Premiere Pro 4K Export test, where the redesigned Mac mini is faster than Apple’s updated 14-inch MacBook Pro. However, one other hardware ends up taking the crown, and we will discuss why this is happening. The 24-inch M4 […]
AMD has officially launched its new ROCm 6.1.3 Open Compute software suite with added AI capabilities & support alongside the Radeon PRO W7900 Dual Slot GPU. AMD's ROCm 6.1.3 Software Stack Adds Multi-GPU Support, TensorFlow AI Framework Support & WSL 2 Support, Radeon PRO W7900 Dual Slot GPU Hits Shelves For $3499 Announced at Computex 2024, AMD is formally launching its Radeon PRO W7900 Dual Slot GPU in the retail segment. Priced at $3499 US, the Radeon PRO W7900 is said to offer leadership performance-per-dollar and a vast 48 GB memory pool, enabling faster performance within AI-oriented workloads such as […]
AMD plans to open-source portions of its ROCm software stack and hardware documentation in a future update as the company aims to refine its software and AI ecosystem for consumers. AMD Says It Will Open-Source Portions of Its ROCm Software Stack & Hardware Documentation After Getting Feedback From The Community AMD was recently in hot waters regarding its software and AI support under ROCm. Companies such as George Hotz's, TinyGrad, called out AMD for its unstable driver support, leading to a very unstable experience using the Radeon RX GPUs. One of the solutions proposed was to make the Radeon Software […]
AMD is preparing to release its ROCm 6.1 software stack, this time coming with enhanced support and extensive optimization changes. AMD's ROCm 6.1 Software Stack May Surpass NVIDIA CUDA If Development Continues To Stay At Its Current Trajectory Team Red has been recently ramping up ROCm developments, as back in December 2023, we saw the debut of ROCm 6.0, which came with support for AMD's Instinct MI300A/MIX300X AI accelerators along with several changes to improve the state of the stack. Now, this time, the new ROCm 6.1 has a similar nature as well. Still, instead of product compatibility, the latest […]
AMD GPU owners can now effortlessly run CUDA libraries and apps within ROCm through the use of ZLUDA, an Open-Source library that effectively ports NVIDIA CUDA apps over to ROCm that does not require code adaption. AMD ROCm Now Supports NVIDIA CUDA Libraries Using Open-Source "ZLUDA", Works Across All GPUs From The Red Team The practice of "transitioning" codebases from one project/language to the other is common since it allows developers to code to access a wider "arsenal" of features and makes maintenance easier. In this case, however, an interesting development has occurred since Team Red has apparently hastened its […]
AMD's ROCm 6.0 software stack and the full source code are now available to download & come with Instinct MI300 & Radeon 7000 GPU support. AMD's ROCm 6.0 Software Stack Now Brings Support For Additional AI Libraries, Unlocks FP8 Performance At PyTorch, Adds Instinct MI300 & Radeon 7000 GPU Support In the company's Advancing AI event, AMD revealed plans for enhancing the company's ROCm platform through an "updated" framework, and in the initial stages, has been released on Linux. ROCm 6.0 is AMD's attempt to give tough competition to NVIDIA's CUDA. Not only has the new software stack upgraded to […]
As part of its Q2 FY 2025 financial presentation, SEGA has announced the sale of Amplitude Studios, the Paris-based studio known as the developer of Endless Space, Endless Legend, Dungeon of the Endless, Endless Space 2, Humankind, and more recently, Endless Dungeon. SEGA explained this concludes its wave of restructuring the European business, which previously included the sale of Relic Entertainment and substantial layoffs. The Group recorded an extraordinary loss of approximately ¥5.9 billion ($38.7 million) in the second quarter for the fiscal year due to the sale of overseas development studio Amplitude Studios SAS through a management buyout. [...] […]
