    Podcast #796 - Intel Core Ultra Happened, Arm to Cancel Qualcomm License, NVIDIA Fixes Blackwell, Gigabyte X3D Turbo!

    What a week. So much exciting news to cover, including the extremely well-received new Intel Core Ultra desktop processors! Does sarcasm evident? Anyhow, we received them, too, but without a motherboard, so not much tested happened before this launch.  No worries, we're getting a board, and have turned off our AI assistants.  Or have we?

    Podcast #795 - AMD and Intel Team Up for x86, RIP Ryzen 7 5800X3D, 9800X3D Launch Rumor, Win11 BSODs & MORE

    We've got Intel and AMD teaming up, Click2Cancel making waves, so much ARM discussion where it wasn't meant to be, Windows 11 BSODs (suprise!), a bunch of X86 discussion and a terrible amount of security nightmares!  Should be fun, take a listen!  00:00 Intro03:07 Food with Josh05:22 Intel and AMD team up for the good of x8608:59 The x86 discussion shifts to Arm at this point10:18 Arm discussion intensifies11:45 A return to x86 discussion (which eventually shifts to Arm again)22:13 Has the 5800X3D reached end of life?24:20 Ryzen 7 9800X3D could debut on October 2527:12 AMD means business32:09 It's possible that LGA1851 might not be one-and-done35:52 We explain why certain WD SSDs cause BSOD with latest Win11 build40:14 Click to cancel - an FTC story43:04 (in)Security Corner1:01:34 Gaming Quick Hits1:07:43 Picks of the Week1:19:20 Outro ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

    Podcast #794 - Intel Core Ultra Desktop Processors, Final 13th and 14th Gen Firmware Fix, 10Gbe NAS & MORE

    It was an AMD-heavy show last week, so how about an IntelCast? (Don't worry, there's a lot of non-Intel content - plus at least one of us is a card-carrying member of Team Red).  So much (in)Security too: your air-gap is pathetic, Qualcomm zero-day, Linux malware, and DDoS to the max.

    OCT 6

    Podcast #793 - AMD's Ryzen Update, X870 Motherboards are Here, 2.5x Radeon Perf Boost, and MORE

    We actually do talk about more than just AMD this week. Plus, we stray from the point a lot while talking about things like dual screen laptops, HP AI infused printers, if maybe you should buy a used RTX 2080ti.  All in good fun. 00:00 Intro02:30 Food with Josh04:17 AMD Ryzen update (105W mode official, etc.)06:31 The new X870 motherboards are here10:11 Some more 9000X3D rumors12:05 Latest Radeon driver offers 2.5X boost (but how?)16:14 Quite a bit of Windows Update news23:27 Dual-screen laptops fold THREE times29:34 HP wants to add "ai" to printers33:30 The RTX 4060 is rapidly becoming the most popular GPU?
