00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:05,759
hi everybody have a normal night

2
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:08,639
nothing crazy happened like in the

3
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:13,040
like in the world everything's everything's pretty just

4
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,040
regular out there

5
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:21,439
cool NVIDIA has announced they're delaying the launch of the rtx 3070 graphics card

6
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:25,439
from october 15th to october 29th in order to avoid the availability problems

7
00:00:23,519 --> 00:00:30,160
that plagued the launches of the rtx 3080 and 3090. NVIDIA's blog post says

8
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:34,800
the move is intended to get more graphics cards into the hands of gamers

9
00:00:32,160 --> 00:00:39,600
on launch day and not at all because october 29th is one day after AMD is

10
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:43,760
scheduled to reveal their newest rating on gpus

11
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:48,640
oh my is NVIDIA going to give AMD a taste of their own medicine waiting

12
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:53,199
until the reveal of the rx 6000 gpus and then dropping the 3070's price to be

13
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:58,000
more competitive in an ironic reversal of what AMD did in 2019

14
00:00:56,239 --> 00:01:03,359
we'll have to see but whether NVIDIA screws AMD over or not on the GPU side

15
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:08,320
one thing's for sure if these ryzen 5000 series leaks are any indication team red

16
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:13,760
cpus are still going to be bangers so don't worry for dr lisa sue just yet

17
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:15,200
she's a doctor i'm sure she'll be fine

18
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:19,439
she'll just like reincarnate in a different body or

19
00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:25,280
something i think doctors can do that oh is that my coffee that's nice microsoft

20
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:27,759
brought two new surfaces to the top top

21
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:32,400
of the what was i writing here they announced two new surfaces the surface

22
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:39,119
laptop go has a 12.4 inch touchscreen and a 720p webcam and runs an Intel core

23
00:01:35,119 --> 00:01:42,640
i5 1035 g1 with four gigs of RAM

24
00:01:39,119 --> 00:01:45,200
and 64 gigs of emmc storage but it's

25
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:49,040
only 549 you're definitely paying a premium for the nice surface design

26
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:55,840
there but there's also a more reasonable build with eight gigs of RAM and 128

27
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:55,840
gigs of storage for 6.99 so

28
00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:04,320
so that's what i wrote microsoft also announced a refresh of the surface pro x

29
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:10,000
powered by the microsoft sq2 chip which is basically a variant of qualcomm's

30
00:02:06,159 --> 00:02:12,319
revamped snapdragon 8cx gen2 i found the

31
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:17,599
first surface pro x pretty disappointing primarily because it couldn't run many

32
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:22,160
x64 apps but that's apparently about to change microsoft is working on x64

33
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:27,040
emulation for Windows on ARM meaning that ARM powered Windows machines might

34
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:31,040
actually be worth buying in the future oh i'm sorry what is that rude

35
00:02:29,599 --> 00:02:35,040
they deserve it and google is going to start paying news

36
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:39,599
publishers for their content as part of a new product called google news

37
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:43,840
showcase the company is putting one billion dollars into news partnerships

38
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:49,519
over the next three years with nearly 200 publications in the uk canada

39
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:53,040
australia and argentina big into news in that country they love it there while

40
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:56,640
this certainly seems nice of them it's more likely this move is an attempt to

41
00:02:54,800 --> 00:03:01,360
sidestep efforts by the governments of australia and france to get google to

42
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:05,840
pay for news it's not clear whether google news showcase will be a paid

43
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:10,159
service like apple's news plus but either way it should bring up the real

44
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:13,519
good stuff or what the algorithm thinks is good anyway praise be to its

45
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:17,519
all-knowing ways don't kill me please algorithm now it's

46
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:21,760
time for quick bits brought to you by my good friends at seasonic when i think of

00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:27,760
the way that csonix power supplies deliver ultra efficient power to a pc

48
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:31,840
it just makes my skin vibrate

49
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:37,440
the seasonic prime ultra titanium power supply is fully modular has fluid

50
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:39,200
dynamic band band bearings fan bearings

51
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:44,720
with hybrid fan control to mitigate noise and comes with a psu tester in the

52
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:48,959
box like come on guys it's got a 50 000 hour life expectancy and a 12 year

53
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:52,080
warranty so be honest with yourself this thing is what you want

quick bits go pc game store gog galaxy is starting to

56
00:04:01,599 --> 00:04:08,560
deliver on its promise of amalgamating your entire game library beta users can

57
00:04:06,799 --> 00:04:12,640
now purchase games from the epic game store through

58
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:17,120
gog galaxy and not only that those games will be covered by gog's 30-day refund

59
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:21,120
policy not the epic store's 14-day policy

60
00:04:18,239 --> 00:04:24,639
there's got to be a downside here um you can't

61
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:28,720
interact directly with the epic game store this way

62
00:04:25,919 --> 00:04:32,639
nope that's a plus dang i guess this is pretty great news

63
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:37,520
verizon is expanding its lte-based home internet service to rural communities in

64
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:43,759
48 of the united states offering download speeds of 25 to 50 megabits per

65
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:45,440
second and no data usage caps wait

00:04:43,759 --> 00:04:49,840

67
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,840
why do we have them there

68
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:56,960
for to make suit guys money

69
00:04:54,639 --> 00:05:00,720
NVIDIA has released an optional hotfix driver for GeForce gpus which should

70
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:04,720
help with some g-sync issues some users have been experiencing and further help

71
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:07,680
those nasty rtx 3080 crashes we've been hearing so much about but i have a

72
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:11,520
feeling those were nintendo hacking the GPU like

73
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:16,320
maybe it's time to take a break toyota's gone and done it they made

74
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:19,840
glados from portal just kidding it's actually a concept robot designed to be

75
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:23,039
installed in kitchen ceilings so it can help you cook and make passive

76
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:26,880
aggressive slightly threatening remarks as it does so just kidding it won't do

77
00:05:25,039 --> 00:05:30,479
that probably but it will sing you songs about cake and science

78
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:35,120
it might actually do that i don't know and it's time for gamer news super smash

79
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:40,160
