Has intel fixed the drivers for a380?  My only experience was horrible, it couldn't play youtube videos without freezing up. 

Kinda like me the other days. Tried opening a video file ans both my desktop and laptop with Amd gpu would either freeze or gpu driver crash.

13900k uhd worked fine.

I read that they improved driver but i can't says for youtube.

Amd 6800xt i had was not even able to run 4k 120hz without dropping frame.

The Embedded World 2024 conference witnessed several products targeting the embedding and compact computing segment, with the likes of AMD's Versal Gen 2 chip and Intel's Meteor Lake-PS lineup. However, ADLINK has decided to step in and integrate Intel's new low-profile Arc A380E into its EGX-PCIE-A380E professional graphics card, potentially exploring a new competitor for the low-power markets.

The Taiwanese firm ADLINK has unveiled a new graphics card, incorporating Intel's ARC A380E and a low-profile design for basic tasks.

As much as this is impressive i would have love a 20-22-24 core ryzen.

For my use the 24 core of my 13900k are more useful. Sadly the e-core are kinda junk. I can freeze chrome by doing heavy cpu task

Malicious updates made to a ubiquitous tool were a few weeks away from going mainstream.

 

It was implemented on some unstable builds, (Like Kali experimental) so if you have an unstable Linux build, make sure it has been updated.  This is a few days old, but since it hasn't been mentioned I thought I'd bring it up. 

Great post

Getting the tone of Fallout right is the biggest challenge facing the upcoming live-action adaptation on Prime Video. The games have a very particular sense of humor without becoming a complete farce. However, someone in Amazon’s marketing department is clearly familiar with the world of the games because the promo video for Amazon’s Prepare for Fallout on Prime Video is hilarious, and it captures the essence of the franchise in ways that the previous trailers for the series haven’t been able to.

Marketing for Star Wars Outlaws is about to kick off in a big way, with the world premiere story trailer slated to air on Tuesday, April 9 at 9 AM Pacific Time/noon Eastern Time/6 PM Central European Time.

Many fans are taking this as confirmation that the game will launch sooner rather than later. Ubisoft has historically published story trailers relatively close to the release dates, and there's also the fact that multiple countries have already rated the game, including South Korea, Brazil, Australia, and possibly the USA, given the ESRB rating spotted on the Ubisoft Store.

A new 8K resolution video shared by Digital Dreams shows the game running with several mods, including a ray tracing mod and the Rewrite V mod, a visual overhaul mod that introduces many complex visual effects via ENV and in-game files. Needless to say, the game looks incredible with these mods, making it look like a current-generation game and not one that made its debut back in 2013.

Only 300, so essentially this is just a special edition run. That is the same sort of deal when I had as Asrock X570 Aqua, only 1000 of those were made. Lovely board though.

Probably the best looking white board i have ever seen honestly .  Now issue is we don't have any white gold ram to go with it

As confirmed, Gigabyte’s unveiling of the RTX 4080 SUPER XTREME ICE wasn’t a prank for April Fool’s Day. They are indeed introducing new hardware aimed at enthusiasts, all following a unified design concept. A standout feature across this hardware lineup is the predominantly white aesthetic with gold accents, targeting well-off gamers. Among the newly revealed products is the Z790 chipset-based motherboard from Intel. Following the XTREME X ICE design ethos, the board features white, silver and gold accents. In fact, even the LGA1700 socket is gold platted. The CPU and memory modules are shielded by a translucent block, resembling a monoblock for water cooling, though it appears to be a removable plastic cover.

However, it’s important to mention that the supply of these parts will be extremely limited. According to a statement from Gigabyte’s Vietnam Sales Manager, only 300 bundles comprising the motherboard, graphics card, and CPU cooler will be produced

Oh well fixed. The hdd name was too long. 

Well just installed my hdd in a new case and it has a hdd hotswap board but am running usual sata to sata.

But one of my drive is missing capacity like 180gb left on 240gb for example.

Just reset the os with the option of keeping file and it still buggued.

The recent introduction of Zen 4 Storm Peak Threadripper 7ks could be negatively affected by this news since Zen 5 core Threadripper must already exist as well and are socket-compatible at least with Storm Peak mobos. I also wonder when AMD will introduce some X3D versions of Zen 5 Epyc...64 or 96 full Zen 5 cores with X3D must be real monsters.

 

R-DDR 5 now up to 6000, with some vendors offering R-DDR5 up to 7200 already. Put differently: I would love to see a release of Zen 5 Threadrippers sooner rather than later, as they seem 'out of phase'. Presumably, the next product line to receive Zen 5 cores will be the desktop (9000 series).

I think they are taking their time with the past few years of laziness haha. Sooner or later we will get all at once new cpu and gpu!

@LabRat Would make sense but i expect the performance to be not that much better.

The rumor comes from Quasarzone who talked to South Korean industry experts who highlighted that NVIDIA is informing its partners about limited shipments for its GeForce RTX 40 "Ada' GPUs as the launch of RTX 50 "Blackwell" GPUs approaches for 2H 2024.

The experts specifically state that the GeForce RTX 40 GPUs based on the Ada Lovelace architecture will see a sharp decline in shipments as a means to manage inventory levels & make enough room for the next-gen gaming lineup. At the same time, NVIDIA will be retaining the same price points for its RTX 40 lineup and we might even see continued drop even though some of these RTX 40 GPUs are very popular options for the AI market.

Steam itself will not launch on CPU's missing the CMPXCHG16b instruction set now.  This is NOT a requirement to play games I've purchased on Steam, but it is a requirement to launch the Steam client itself now.  Just tried on Socket 939 with Kubuntu last night.  The system itself was snappy and quick enough to daily drive even (as a dual core with DDR400).  But nope, can't install Steam even on Linux anymore.

I was actually planning on recording a BeamNG.drive session on the Socket 939 system soon, that's why I was prepping the system for Steam on Linux, since Windows 7 Steam doesn't install on anymore.  This is a system I've literally played the game on before just fine.

What about their legacy steam? Someone will probably find a hack or something. This instruction junk is not needed on a game launcher seem like someone paid them....

Is beam ng on epic store?
