Following the acquisition, the Cinemersive Labs team will join SIE's Visual Computing Group (VCG) and contribute to our broader efforts in advancing state of the art visual computing within games. This includes applying machine learning to enhance gameplay visuals, improve rendering techniques, and unlock new levels of visual fidelity for players.

RAM prices are skyrocketing, driving up the cost of products that rely heavily on memory. The price of Raspberry Pi boards has now soared to the point where two 16GB Raspberry Pi 5 boards will cost you as much as a new laptop.

After Google released its TurboQuant compression algorithm, which can purportedly drastically reduce the amount of memory required for certain AI workflows, stock prices for memory manufacturers dropped significantly.

Samsung and AMD share a commitment to advancing AI computing, and this agreement reflects the growing scope of our collaboration. From industry-leading HBM4 and next-generation memory architectures to cutting-edge foundry and advanced packaging, Samsung is uniquely positioned to deliver unrivaled turnkey capabilities that support AMD's evolving AI roadmap.

Sorano will be available with up to 84 Zen 5 cores - up from 64 on Siena - in a power envelope of just 225 watts. AMD isn't ready to spill all the beans on its latest Epyc just yet, but based on core count alone, we surmise the chip will either feature six density-optimized Zen 5c chiplets with 14 of 16 cores enabled or 12 of the frequency-optimized Zen 5 variety with one of the eight cores fused off.

The Ryzen 7 9850X3D features the same 8-core, 16-threads design as the 9800X3D, as well as the same 96MB L3 cache that makes these chips especially suited for gaming workloads. Thanks to the higher level of binning, the 9850X3D can now hit 5.6GHz clock speeds, up from the 9800X3D's 5.2GHz, at the same 120W TDP. This is an almost 8% increase in clock speed, and should make the 9850X3D the fastest gaming CPU in AMD's lineup, and consequently, on the market.

"Many people in the PC industry said, well, if you want graphics, it's gotta be discrete graphics because otherwise people will think it's bad graphics," Macri said at last year's CES. "What Apple showed was consumers don't care what's inside the box. They actually care what the what the box looks like. They care about the screen, the keyboard, the mouse. They care about what it does."

AMD clarified those estimates are based on a comparison between an eight-GPU MI300X node and an MI500 rack system with an unspecified number of GPUs. The math works out to eight MI300Xs that are 1000x less powerful than X-number of MI500Xs. And since we know essentially nothing about the chip besides that it'll ship in 2027, pair TSMC's 2nm process tech with AMD's CDNA 6 compute architecture, and use HBM4e memory, we can't even begin to estimate what that 1000x claim actually means.

There's support for DDR4-3200 memory, and the processor also comes bundled with an AMD Wraith Stealth cooler, which maintains its temperature while offering consistent performance for all your tasks. Additionally, the processor features a full suite of Ryzen technologies such as Precision Boost 2 and Precision Boost Overdrive to take the experience even further. The former intelligently raises CPU clock speeds to deliver maximum performance, while the latter pushes it further when your system can handle it.
