1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,000 Sometimes I snooze on tech news, but don't get confused TechLinked will sink your mind to the enthusiast kind and fast-forward not 2 00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:13,120 Rewind through the tropic topics. That's the hottest, but that doesn't mean they're not cool 3 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,140 So don't snooze on tech news choose to peruse 4 00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:28,140 The specs for NVIDIA's upcoming RTX 50 series blackwell GPUs have allegedly already leaked thanks to reliable tipster 5 00:00:28,140 --> 00:00:36,020 Copitae 7 Kimmy, which is how I will pronounce it always Kimmy has claimed the cards will be based on 6 00:00:36,460 --> 00:00:42,740 The GB202 and GB203 GPUs. I don't know what their opinions will be 7 00:00:42,740 --> 00:00:49,820 But we'll see the latter is expected to be a cut-down version of the former with half the number of cores on top of that 8 00:00:49,820 --> 00:00:53,980 The cards may be the first to feature gddr7 memory 9 00:00:54,500 --> 00:00:58,500 Specifically the memory speed will cap out at 28 gigabits per second 10 00:00:58,500 --> 00:01:05,260 Which is lower than the published specifications for the next-gen memory, but still faster than gddr6 11 00:01:05,540 --> 00:01:13,100 X's maximum speed. This detail seems the most solid while Kimmy has seemed to flip-flop on memory bus width 12 00:01:13,100 --> 00:01:18,900 The tipster now says the GB202 will sport a 512 bit memory bus 13 00:01:18,900 --> 00:01:24,180 But previously hinted it would come with the same 384-bit interface the 4090 has 14 00:01:24,180 --> 00:01:31,200 But if all this gaming GPU news tricked you into thinking that NVIDIA cares about those again, I'm sorry AI is still 15 00:01:31,500 --> 00:01:36,420 Jensen's favorite child CEO Jensen Huang has implied the company's next-gen 16 00:01:36,860 --> 00:01:43,720 DGX AI servers will be liquid cooled perhaps to deal with extra heat due to increased power consumption 17 00:01:43,780 --> 00:01:47,300 This wouldn't be the only hot water NVIDIA's AI has created 18 00:01:47,300 --> 00:01:54,780 Team green is being sued by three authors who claim their copyrighted works were used without permission to train the company's 19 00:01:54,940 --> 00:02:02,740 Nemo AI platform with this lawsuit NVIDIA joins the list of AI companies sued for copyright infringement companies like 20 00:02:03,500 --> 00:02:07,820 Every other AI company. It's a rite of passage really. AGI will emerge 21 00:02:08,660 --> 00:02:19,500 from the fire of Being sued constantly from team green over to team red now AMD has made major changes to the FreeSync certification process in a 22 00:02:19,500 --> 00:02:24,020 Community announcement the company stated they would be increasing the required 23 00:02:24,580 --> 00:02:30,300 Maximum refresh rate a monitor needs to support in order to be FreeSync certified 24 00:02:30,860 --> 00:02:38,100 Originally monitors and TVs only needed a maximum refresh rate of 40 to 60 Hertz to get a basic FreeSync stamp 25 00:02:38,340 --> 00:02:46,020 But now the minimum certification Requires at least a 144 Hertz maximum refresh rate 26 00:02:46,100 --> 00:02:51,860 Meanwhile FreeSync premium certification used to just require a monitor that can go up to 120 Hertz 27 00:02:52,140 --> 00:02:55,940 But now that's only true for displays with horizontal resolutions of 28 00:02:57,140 --> 00:03:04,820 3440 pixels or above TVs or monitors below that resolution must have a maximum refresh rate of at least 29 00:03:05,420 --> 00:03:11,340 200 Hertz a premium pro has also changed to match premium, but with the added criterion of 30 00:03:11,740 --> 00:03:15,740 HDR support now these might sound like huge and confusing changes 31 00:03:15,740 --> 00:03:20,500 But they really just reflect today's most common refresh rates in desktop gaming monitors 32 00:03:20,500 --> 00:03:25,020 It's super common now to find budget gaming monitors at 144 Hertz 33 00:03:25,020 --> 00:03:33,180 But no matter what monitor you're running AMD's new upscaler for non-game just video content could be welcome news for you 34 00:03:33,180 --> 00:03:38,820 Radeon RX 7000 users out there. It's basically team red's answer to NVIDIA's RTX 35 00:03:39,020 --> 00:03:46,060 VSR, but apparently it's a bit more complicated to set up not only do you have to enable it in AMD's adrenaline control panel 36 00:03:46,060 --> 00:03:52,660 But you also need to enable options in Windows 11 settings app and additional settings in Chrome and Edge 37 00:03:52,660 --> 00:03:58,460 If you want to use it in one of those browsers as for other browsers AMD didn't mention them Firefox 38 00:03:58,460 --> 00:04:06,420 What is that some sort of cryptid it's friends with the insolendian phasmid about five people get that and apple will be releasing next-gen 39 00:04:06,500 --> 00:04:13,900 iPad pros and heirs in the next month according to the girm in the apple apple will not have a launch event for their mac and 40 00:04:13,900 --> 00:04:16,940 iPad updates because the vision pro is all that matters now 41 00:04:17,380 --> 00:04:21,940 Previously it was rumored that apple would simply put out press releases on its website last week 42 00:04:21,940 --> 00:04:25,740 But that doesn't seem to have happened while we wait for those products 43 00:04:25,740 --> 00:04:29,220 We can perhaps also wait for a new apple headset. Oh 44 00:04:29,620 --> 00:04:36,540 Insiders like Gerbin have claimed we might see a cheaper alternative to the vision pro in 2025 or 2026 45 00:04:36,620 --> 00:04:41,460 But according to a leaker called Ravegnaz 46 00:04:42,900 --> 00:04:47,580 According to that leaker apple is accelerating research and development on an entry-level 47 00:04:48,020 --> 00:04:55,100 headset the leaker claims apple is trying to reduce the cost of their headset displays which count for almost a third of the vision 48 00:04:55,100 --> 00:04:59,740 pro's total manufacturing cost allegedly the second generation headset could cost 49 00:05:01,100 --> 00:05:04,380 $1,500 which is a bargain on apples pricing scale 50 00:05:04,460 --> 00:05:13,060 But before that allegedly happens the AirPods Pro may be getting a major new hearing aid mode with iOS 18 according to 51 00:05:13,300 --> 00:05:17,980 Mark German again. He's back a 2022 study already suggested AirPods work 52 00:05:18,340 --> 00:05:23,060 Competently as a cheaper alternative to a traditional hearing aids. So how can they get better? 53 00:05:23,260 --> 00:05:28,220 Will they cure hearing loss in some weird partnership with mr. Beast 54 00:05:28,980 --> 00:05:36,620 Implant your AirPods directly into your skull quick bits are like a little kiss of summer in the spring a flashlight in the fog 55 00:05:37,620 --> 00:05:44,100 Sunday morning pajama reddit and its current shareholders would be offering a total of 22 million shares 56 00:05:44,820 --> 00:05:50,740 Optimistically for around thirty four dollars each and the rest is as they say basic grade school math 57 00:05:50,860 --> 00:05:58,740 Who says that around 1.76 million of those shares have been set aside specifically for reddit users who joined prior to 58 00:05:58,820 --> 00:06:03,700 January of this year because everyone else is just free writing the company is reportedly targeting 59 00:06:03,780 --> 00:06:09,780 Evaluation of close to six and a half billion dollars, which is honestly a bit more than I'd be willing to pay for it 60 00:06:09,780 --> 00:06:13,740 20 bucks. Take it or leave it. You'd be lucky if anyone pays you more than 20 bucks for that thing 61 00:06:14,620 --> 00:06:22,460 Xiaomi is removing a popular feature that allowed users to play YouTube videos in the background on their Android based operating system 62 00:06:22,620 --> 00:06:27,620 Without subscribing to YouTube premium thus avoiding paying Google money 63 00:06:27,900 --> 00:06:35,100 So that works Google who actually quite likes money is suspected of having pressured Xiaomi into removing the feature 64 00:06:35,100 --> 00:06:37,700 Though Xiaomi only said that the changes were due to 65 00:06:38,460 --> 00:06:44,940 Unspecified compliance requirements Specifically compliance with the back of Google's hand slap slap 66 00:06:45,380 --> 00:06:53,180 Google leaked the pixel 8a's existence in the most on-brand way in Android 14's QPR one update 67 00:06:53,180 --> 00:06:58,780 Google added extended battery statistics that allowed users to see charging cycle counts and 68 00:06:59,180 --> 00:07:07,860 Manufacturing dates for their phones battery However, this feature disappeared in an update this month when a user reported this as a bug a Google representative 69 00:07:08,260 --> 00:07:12,580 Stated that existing devices were never meant to get this feature. So they removed it 70 00:07:12,940 --> 00:07:18,900 Saying we only enable this page on pixel 8a and beyond. Oh, oh, that'll be on the pixel 71 00:07:19,900 --> 00:07:29,860 Sorry Android users you may have lost a feature But your sacrifice has allowed Google to justify yet another phone launch a mod has been released that gives NVIDIA 72 00:07:29,980 --> 00:07:38,220 RTX 20 series and GTX 16 series GPUs support for resizable bar a performance enhancing feature that lets your CPU 73 00:07:38,860 --> 00:07:43,860 Access your GPU's entire frame buffer as long as your motherboard says it's okay 74 00:07:45,740 --> 00:07:53,340 Isn't there someone you forgot to ask that's actually not a joke rebar only works if the motherboard CPU and GPU all support it 75 00:07:53,340 --> 00:07:58,340 So using this mod which is based on another mod adding rebar support to older processors 76 00:07:58,540 --> 00:08:02,340 Involves patching your motherboards at UEFI firmware now 77 00:08:02,340 --> 00:08:10,660 That's always a little risky But what is life if not a continuous sequence of taking one risk after another? This is not an endorsement. Do not sue us 78 00:08:10,660 --> 00:08:13,820 We're not an AI company if Riley jumped off a cliff with you 79 00:08:14,300 --> 00:08:19,020 And that's just a question and Porsche has unveiled the Taycan turbo GT 80 00:08:19,180 --> 00:08:27,420 It's fastest road legal car ever and it proved it too by setting a new record for a production EV car at the Laguna 81 00:08:27,460 --> 00:08:30,620 Seca track in California Linus is so sad 82 00:08:30,620 --> 00:08:35,980 He went back to driving his Lambo out of shame in addition to more range and faster charging 83 00:08:35,980 --> 00:08:40,940 The new Taycan got a bonus in the form of a Tim Cook appearance in its announcement video 84 00:08:40,940 --> 00:08:47,300 He congratulated Porsche CEO Oliver Bloom on the launch and on the Porsche Vision Pro app 85 00:08:47,300 --> 00:08:54,540 That lets you spectate races from various perspectives. I hope CEO's pinching the air becomes part of every major product release going forward 86 00:08:54,540 --> 00:08:58,920 It just makes everything more exciting. I think it's called carcinization where everything starts turning into crabs 87 00:09:03,620 --> 00:09:09,700 As you know we're releasing a product, but there's nothing more exciting than coming back on Wednesday for more tech news 88 00:09:11,940 --> 00:09:13,940 Nothing
