1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:09,240
it's TechLink we got more Tech news than you can shake a stick at I won't stop

2
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:12,120
you from trying but you've been warned

3
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:16,359
reviews of NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 590 graphics card went live yesterday and on

4
00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:22,000
the whole reviewers found it performs about 30% faster than the 4090 without

5
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:28,760
dlss which may have something to do with the 30% more cores and 30% more power

6
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:34,760
but I'm not a scientist thankfully NVIDIA was kind enough to only add about

7
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:36,879
20% to the price but as Hardware unboxed

8
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:41,559
points out that doesn't save the cards cost per frame rating from its spot at

9
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:48,239
the bottom of the charts of course the 5090 also has that fun new dlss 4 with

10
00:00:45,039 --> 00:00:51,440
multiframe Gen which can get you absurd

11
00:00:48,239 --> 00:00:53,320
results like 600 FPS in cyberpunk as

12
00:00:51,440 --> 00:01:00,000
long as you're okay with some wacky artifacts speaking of whack scalpers are

13
00:00:56,399 --> 00:01:03,719
already charging double the 590s $2,000

14
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:06,200
MSRP but if you still really want an RTX

15
00:01:03,719 --> 00:01:10,280
50 Series card it seems like the RTX 5080 is next on the release schedule

16
00:01:08,759 --> 00:01:15,960
with leaks pointing to a performance boost of around 22% maybe if your

17
00:01:13,479 --> 00:01:21,240
heart's set on the 90 though you should probably know that as Tech PowerUp noted

18
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:26,640
in their review NVIDIA removed the hotspot sensor from the GPU a decision

19
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:31,799
they told derbauer was made because the hotspot metric is no longer accurate and

20
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:36,920
no no longer relevant I mean for instance it doesn't count AI frames at

21
00:01:34,399 --> 00:01:41,520
all Intel's been doing some thinking and have come up with a pretty wild idea for

22
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:46,920
making PCS more repairable and less wasteful what if we made PCS

23
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:53,320
modular yeah I don't know I just thought about it last night okay Intel's blog

24
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:59,039
post is actually about encouraging more manufacturers to work on modular designs

25
00:01:55,759 --> 00:02:01,759
for laptop and compact PCS taking

26
00:01:59,039 --> 00:02:07,159
inspiration from framework and MNT which is great but the article also asks the

27
00:02:04,119 --> 00:02:11,720
reader to just imagine an Innovative

28
00:02:07,159 --> 00:02:13,440
approach that we call desktop modular PC

29
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:17,040
architecture it's like they hired someone from Apple and immediately sent

30
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:21,560
them to the blog because yeah it turns out there's nothing stopping you from

31
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:27,599
building your own laptop right now like literal high schooler Byron hang who

32
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:31,080
built the custom open- source anyone

33
00:02:27,599 --> 00:02:33,760
laptop using the same ARM so on a module

34
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:38,720
from this LTT video Wong says lonus doing a video on it reaffirmed his

35
00:02:35,879 --> 00:02:45,040
decision which is not okay good luck open AI has unveiled

36
00:02:42,239 --> 00:02:50,519
operator an AI agent available now for chat gbt Pro subscribers that will use a

37
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:54,720
computer for you which is perfect for anyone paying the $200 subscription you

38
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:59,959
probably already have chat GPT writing all your DMs how should I tell them I'll

39
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:05,920
be there you could say I'll be there there yeah that's good open AI CEO Sam

40
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:10,519
ultman and some other guys demoed operator in a video showing that you can

41
00:03:08,239 --> 00:03:15,640
click the take control button if operator's about to buy a cyber trck or

42
00:03:12,799 --> 00:03:20,920
something oh don't want to do that it's a good thing open AI released operator

43
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:23,080
now it'll distract a bit from R1 an

44
00:03:20,920 --> 00:03:28,000
openweight downloadable model from Chinese startup deep seek that has AI

45
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:33,200
researchers all in a tizzy because it matches the performance of open AI 01

46
00:03:30,599 --> 00:03:37,560
reasoning model the catch is thanks to its Chain of Thought being visible it'll

47
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:41,480
say straight up that it can't reference anything that's critical of the Chinese

48
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:46,799
government and then it'll Force download Tik Tok on your phone I didn't ask for

49
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:50,239
this I asked for our sponsor Jaa the place where you can sell your old

50
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:55,000
graphics card and offset the cost of a new one although you might need a couple

51
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:58,720
if you're eyeing the 590 okay all you got to do is follow the steps on their

52
00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:02,519
site to get an instant quote and a free shipping label

53
00:04:00,439 --> 00:04:08,920
what is this some kind of Online Marketplace built just for gamers and PC

54
00:04:06,239 --> 00:04:12,599
enthusiasts yeah it is no more going through the hassle of making your own

55
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:17,199
listing and having to potentially touch grass it's all online and it's not just

56
00:04:15,239 --> 00:04:23,440
graphics cards Java will take your old CPUs too just go to LMG doggel to Java

57
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:27,440
or click our Link in the description today we're going to do the quick bits

58
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:32,880
now so you can you can keep shaking that stick if you really like that but it's

59
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:37,840
okay you know whatever epic games says the first wave of thirdparty mobile

60
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:43,280
games are coming to the epic game store app on Android globally and on iOS in

61
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:48,240
the EU and to celebrate they're bringing their famous free games program giving

62
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:52,560
away a new one each month if developers participate in the program epic says

63
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:56,360
they'll cover Apple's core technology fee at least until the European

64
00:04:54,560 --> 00:05:01,199
commission figures out whether apple is allowed to charge developers 50 EUR

65
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:05,479
cents for every install over a million on thirdparty App Stores epic's

66
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:09,120
decisions continue to shock me not because of Tim Sweeney's dedication to

67
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:13,320
open markets but because of what it implies about how much money people

68
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:17,800
spend on fortnite skins I know they're all thinking this helps developers aan

69
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:22,720
Neo has announced their newest handheld and it packs a cool trick modular

70
00:05:20,479 --> 00:05:27,600
controls that let you place Hall joysticks six button micro switch pads

71
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:30,680
and even lettered face buttons wherever you want it's even got some different

72
00:05:29,039 --> 00:05:37,120
screen options options and optional button packs pretty neat hey were you

73
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:41,560
guys speaking of Intel recently they got some crazy ideas Xbox held their

74
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:46,160
promised developer direct yesterday revealing that Doom the Dark Ages will

75
00:05:44,199 --> 00:05:50,960
join Indiana Jones in the great circle and a handful of other titles in

76
00:05:47,759 --> 00:05:53,120
requiring a GPU that supports R tracing

77
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:56,880
the game is also single player only because during a demon Invasion we

78
00:05:54,680 --> 00:06:00,759
shouldn't fight amongst ourselves Xbox also showed off and gave release dates

79
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:08,560
for the artistic Ally impressive south of midnight the brand new ninja gay 4

80
00:06:04,280 --> 00:06:10,479
and Claire obscure Expedition 33 which

81
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:14,759
makes up for its horrible name by featuring a character I can only

82
00:06:11,919 --> 00:06:19,199
describe as Dollar Store Robert patson I'm sold and some users have been

83
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:24,319
reporting getting stuck watching hours long unskippable YouTube ads according

84
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:28,720
to a number of posts on the r/ yoube subreddit YouTube truly has gone too far

85
00:06:27,479 --> 00:06:35,960
I mean look at this person who has served in almost thre hour ad wait what

86
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:37,440
is what is that skipping ads yeah it

87
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:43,080
seems like either YouTube might be detecting ad blockers and doing this to

88
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:47,759
punish the user or some ad blocking tools are erroneously blocking the skip

89
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:52,560
ad button Google directed Android authority to their policy limiting

90
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:57,240
unskippable ads to 15 seconds but we can't prove that this isn't all a prank

91
00:06:54,639 --> 00:07:00,240
and Sundar Pichi didn't send that email and then sit snickering in his chair for

92
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:04,759
a good minute which maybe it'll be a good minute

93
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:11,360
before we'll be back on Monday for more Tech news and wow I can't believe I just

94
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:17,240
spread misinformation right to your face it'll be two days not a minute good or

95
00:07:15,039 --> 00:07:22,960
otherwise I'll try to have an apology video up before then I won't I did it

96
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,960
again
