1
00:00:01,839 --> 00:00:07,359
what are you doing here i'm hosting i thought you were fired oh

2
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:12,559
really really that's what you've got yeah no i'm here

3
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:19,359
and we're hosting i'm doing the tech news cool tech news yesterday at gdc

4
00:00:15,599 --> 00:00:21,439
2019 google showed us all the future of

5
00:00:19,359 --> 00:00:27,920
gaming and guess what guys if you thought it was a box it's not it's a

6
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:29,760
place a stadium or rather a stadia

7
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:33,360
google stadia is a game streaming service that'll run on any pc running

8
00:00:31,679 --> 00:00:37,840
chrome any tv equipped with the chromecast or any mobile device with the

9
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:42,000
app stadia will have virtually no local processing everything will run off of

10
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:47,440
cloud machines powered by cpus and gpus custom built by AMD with the ability to

11
00:00:44,239 --> 00:00:49,280
stream up to 4k and 60fps what they will

12
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:53,520
stream beyond assassin's creed and doom is still unclear as statey apparently

13
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:57,280
runs on Linux in the vulcan API the giant question on everyone's mind

14
00:00:55,039 --> 00:01:01,199
however is latency the stadia controller will connect directly to the stadius

15
00:00:58,879 --> 00:01:04,960
servers via wi-fi instead of routing through your device and google says they

16
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:08,880
developed a number of other ways to minimize lag on the back end but we

17
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:12,320
obviously can't know for sure until the service launches digital foundry got

18
00:01:10,799 --> 00:01:16,479
some early testing done and found that latency is obviously higher than local

19
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:20,240
gaming on pc and consoles and that isn't going to fly for intense multiplayer FPS

20
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:26,479
games like anthem what my favorite game i hate anthem

21
00:01:24,799 --> 00:01:30,000
as is usually the case with giant unveilings like this one there was a lot

22
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:33,920
of fanfare and not a lot of gritty details if stadia does what it says it

23
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:38,880
can do it could be the start of a revolution in game streaming i might

24
00:01:36,159 --> 00:01:43,520
even throw on my gaming pc no that's not i'm tossing it it's gone different

25
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,880
things it's not for us no NVIDIA also

26
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:49,280
had a bunch of things to announce this week at gtc 2019 they're so full of

27
00:01:48,159 --> 00:01:55,920
themselves that they had to have their own conference ray tracing will be coming to regular

28
00:01:52,399 --> 00:01:58,240
old gtx graphics cards the gtx 10 and 16

29
00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:02,159
series gpus will be able to run a lower quality version of the technology once

30
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:07,280
the update rolls out fancy rt cores or no rtx is also coming to more games

31
00:02:04,399 --> 00:02:12,480
including tomb raider finally remedy's upcoming game control and quake 2

32
00:02:10,479 --> 00:02:16,879
of all things it actually looks super cool and it's

33
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:21,040
interesting as a showcase of what fancy lighting and textures can do even in low

34
00:02:18,959 --> 00:02:25,599
polygon environments the unity game engine is also adding rtx support as a

35
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:28,879
built-in feature wow it's almost enough to make you believe in the glory of ray

36
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:32,720
tracing i should probably pre-order it wait no yeah yeah pre-order let's do it

37
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:37,840
you can't even pre-order i'm gonna i want it yeah vr headsets are kind kinda

38
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:44,319
blah but the hp reverb seems to address some of the medium's problems it has two

39
00:02:40,319 --> 00:02:47,840
lcd panels with 2160 by 2160 pixels per

40
00:02:44,319 --> 00:02:50,160
eye compared to the 2160 by 1200 per eye

41
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:53,840
resolution of the htc vive pro with a slightly larger field of view as well

42
00:02:52,239 --> 00:02:57,760
it'll be available in late april starting at 600 usd

43
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:02,800
it also happens to look extremely similar to the oculus rift that is not

44
00:03:00,239 --> 00:03:08,000
the new oculus rift s that was also just announced the rift s is a 400 pc

45
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:12,319
tethered headset that removes the need for external tracking cameras room scale

46
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:17,120
vr that can be accomplished via built-in tracking it also has upgraded lenses and

47
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:23,280
increased resolution but is still just 1280 by 1440 per eye and for some reason

48
00:03:20,879 --> 00:03:27,360
oculus reduced the refresh rate from 90 to 80 hertz

49
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:31,519
no oculus that's you want higher refresh rates that's that's not how you do it

50
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:36,319
yeah i think they're confused i think so too yeah now it's time for quick bits

wow and AMD has revealed they too are working on 3d stacking processors and

84
00:05:47,919 --> 00:05:54,560
RAM in a single package similar to Intel's foveros technology it makes it

85
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:58,000
better because when you stack them it's better obviously totally you know stack

86
00:05:57,199 --> 00:06:04,160
