    Podcast #828 - No RTX 5050 Reviews, RTX 50 Series SUPER Rumors, Intel X3D Competitor, and MORE

    To celebrate Independence Day, we teamed up with a big imaginary Hollywood studio to produce this special episode. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll kiss three bucks goodbye. Really, of course, we are one of the top 10 best podcasts in the computer hardware field, so if you're serious about your computer hardware podcasts, you're going to check this out regardless.  We've got BSOD's, Nvidia drivers going away, and even hardcoded root passwords.

    A handheld Xbox that's really an ROG Ally with a new Ryzen processor?? An LCD that actually NEEDS bright sunlight like a Game Boy Color?? (Oh, and Josh's legendary food segment.)  There's some EVGA sad news mixed in there with a cool new GOG feature and too many security stories.

    The wait is over - we have the only JoshTEKK review of the new AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT on YouTube. You're welcome.  We also have a serious discussion of Molex.  And Nvidia GPU availability rumors.  And Fosi audio.  And of course, Zero-Day Chrome exploits.

    Podcast #824 - NVIDIA Money, ASRock Ryzen Fix, 10 Dollar 10GbE, Two Great Sub-$25 IEMs, 6 Ghz WiFi + MORE!

    Another quarter is behind us, and NVIDIA just made more money than ever before. Thankfully this "ai" bubble will NEVER burst...right??  ASRock says they have fixed their AM5 issues, 10Gbe is going get inexpensive, and what can Brown do for your AIO?  Also, there is only one rage quit incident.  All that and so much more! 00:00 Intro00:23 Patreon plea (and thanks)01:30 Food with Josh03:15 NVIDIA made a lot more money13:11 AMD acquired Enosemi in the name of "ai"15:20 Microsoft wants all software to update just like your phone20:02 This time ASRock really has the fix for dying Ryzen CPUs21:18 TSMC reminds us that they don't need High-NA EUV for leading process tech27:41 What can brown do for your AiO?29:10 Wi-Fi 6 traffic jams31:42 10GbE for 10 bucks (and extended home network speed discussion)41:43 AMD says 8GB is enough VRAM (for 1080p)47:03 Podcast sponsor NordLayer48:45 (in)Security Corner56:55 Gaming Quick Hits1:09:41 Kent reviews two affordable IEMs: Moondrop CHU II and KBEAR Flash1:22:34 Picks of the Week1:35:11 Outro1:35:28 Bonus clip: Kent rage quit the podcast because his mic stopped working ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

    MAY 24

    Podcast #823 - Radeon RX 9060 XT Announced, Threadripper 9000, NZXT H3 Flow mATX Case, Developers! & more

    No more misinformation - AMD finally announced their Radeon RX 9060 XT, and it turns out that reports of a $449 MSRP were greatly exaggerated. And what the heck is going on with Ryzen and EPYC right now? We have EPYC branded Ryzen desktop chips, and Ryzen branded EPYC chips for workstations (gross oversimplification)?!  Developers! (get fired), Silverstone retro, and also there's a clipboard.

    Podcast #822 - RX 9060 XT Clocks & Pricing, RX 9070 GRE, SN8100 SSD, AMD GRADO, Jeremy Digs RGB

    We were off last week, and somehow we STILL haven't reached Computex. So, another pre-show show, full of speculation (and speculative exploits).   With no time to spare, we talk about Epyc, RX 9060 and RX 9070's, ceramic storage and Windows 3.1 - but not in that order.
