Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “They Keep Getting BIGGER”.
So we’ve got a bunch of tech news today, but if we run out try to think of something else, we can talk about because I I hate awkward silences and then the editor will leave that in and so we will Nvidia releasing an offensively expensive card. Like the RTX 4090 TI again again is probably inevitable, and if new leaks are anything to go by when it does arrive, it might be a chunker. Oh, like deja vu. A recently shared video indicates that the card might have a quad slot design with four video outputs stacked on top of each other, rather than being laid out side by side. So hopefully, you also went for the XL variant of both your case and your bank account. You just have to sign up for the XL one, and then you have more money is when they fill it up. It looks like Nvidia is fully enabling the ad 102 GPU that’s already inside the base, RTX 4090, bringing the Cuda core count to over 18 000 compared to the 10 752 in the RTX 3090 TI. Although details are sketchy right now, we might see two new products. Atop The Stack the aforementioned RTX 49 DTI and a higher end model for professionals with a whopping 48 gigabytes of RAM a vram, so yeah we might be getting another Titan to the Delight of Greek mythology enthusiasts everywhere, or probably that’s also the that might be.
The third Nvidia card to be named the RTX a6000, because there’s there’s two other ones. Some people understand that reference. Speaking of hot chips, not the band Apple’s new M2 Max and M2 Pro chips are now Atop. The PassMark laptop CPU rankings in terms of single threaded performance, the M2 max, sits in first place with the two Pro Models directly behind it, probably feeling jealous followed by the standard.
Eight core Edition he’s just they’re, just crying it’s an impressive showing for Apple, considering how many doubts people originally had about Apple silicon, but do keep in mind that, since this isn’t an x8664 platform, it’s hard to do a Apples to Apples comparison, two competitors from AMD And Intel, but seeing as MacBooks are nonetheless direct competition. Don’T be surprised if intel UPS, the ante and beats out the M2 lineup when it’s Raptor Lake laptop processors come out in the near future and if you’ve been having a hard time tracking down a PS5 console. It looks like you’ll finally be able to get one without beating your head into the wall. How would that help anyone get a PS5? That’S where they keep the PS5 Sony announced in an official blog post that supply has surged ahead of the release of the psvr2, and that fan should have a much easier time finding the console itself. Additionally, if you’re in the US, UK, France, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium or Luxembourg, you can buy directly from Sony, okay, what Canada isn’t on there, but Luxembourg is what do they have we don’t anyway, it’s good timing, considering that the psvr 2 is due out on the 2nd Of February, and will set you back 550 bucks, which is 50 bucks more than the console itself, and it doesn’t even hook into meta’s metaverse. That’S actually a feature, that’s actually why it costs more, because you can now it’s time for quick bits brought to you by Roland’s bridgecast, the all-in-one solution for live stream audio that will take your gaming sound to the next Dimension.

Oh thank God. Okay Intel is prepping. A major driver fix for its arc graphics cards that should significantly boost performance, there’s a bottleneck that Intel has finally identified, which will be reportedly eliminated in an upcoming driver, update it’s that they’re, not in video. I’M just.
Thank goodness, we’re not sure exactly when this update will drop, but it’s certainly great news not just for folks with an Intel, graphics card, but also in terms of the industry getting more competition, still confused about how that bottleneck got in there, though, I mean somebody was Like carrying a big arm, full of them at the factory, it dropped in they choked a little too hard. Work might have a recall recall to deal with involving your backup camera. Apparently, these cameras are just showing a blue image.
Instead of you know, what’s actually going on behind your vehicle? Well, at least it’s a good thing. You got the second camera, then the recall affects nearly a half million SUVs between model years 2020 to 2023. So go get that fixed or I don’t know, maybe just stick your head out of your window and Look Backwards for the time being like some sort of primitive, Proto, human or just YOLO it boy. This can stop you you’re in an SUV. I have faith.
Unsurprisingly, Apple doesn’t want to be left behind in the foldable device Market, which is why noted Apple analyst. Ming Chi quo is predicting that a foldable iPad will launch sometime next year and that might not seem very apple-like, but if they actually launch their mixed reality glasses. This summer and then a USBC iPhone and then they’re forced to allow side, loading and other app stores on iOS next year and by the time the foldable iPad arrives, it might seem positively old-fashioned now quaint, we’re all cyborgs. Now it looks like Corsair has revealed its upcoming PCI Express 5.0 SSD called the MP 700.
Given it’s a premium product, it looks pretty cool with an included Heat sink and fan. Was that a pun, but it looks like the reveal, was accidental as the teaser on YouTube was made private uh, so we may not be seeing the mp700 on shelves all that soon. Corsair is claiming 10 gigabyte per second sequential, read speeds whenever we do get our hands on it, which should help to alleviate some of the embarrassment over this little incidental, oh they’re, just mortified people whoops and if you’re too lazy to go out and buy your own Groceries, we’ve got some really bad news.
Amazon Fresh is now slapping a delivery fee on any order below 150 bucks, which is way up from the previous threshold of 35. Certified rotten Amazon released some mealy mouth statement about how the fee helps keep prices low by making you pay more, I don’t get it, but Daddy Bezos must know what he’s talking about he’s very successful and finally, oh and finally, I oh no there’s there’s no more Tech news uh: what do you think would happen if you came back on Wednesday for more Tech news? Okay, have you ever heard of some .
