1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,000 I believe I've detected a pattern in today's tech news every story is connected a message being sent to us 2 00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:12,600 By someone keep watching and you'll see old Jimmy ain't so crazy after all 3 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:19,520 NVIDIA has unveiled their newest upscaling tech DLSS 5 which now stands for damn low-key 4 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:27,080 Slopsists or might as well because watching the demo video feels like your fingers slipped and you accidentally opened Facebook again 5 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:30,600 I'm not mark this place which is allowed shrimp. Jesus. I missed you 6 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:38,200 The video seems to have thought the best way to continue developing their genuinely impressive DLSS tech was to run every frame through an AI 7 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:44,360 Yassify filter making sure the prompt contains the keywords photorealistic skilled photographer 8 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:50,920 cinematic color grading. Oh, sorry NVIDIA responded to the flood of negative comments on the announcement video by clarifying 9 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:57,060 It's not a filter it inputs the game's color and motion vectors for each frame into the model 10 00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:05,840 and It infuses pixels with photoreal lighting and material which just sounds like explaining how an AI filter works 11 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,960 But hey, I'm not an expert. This isn't leather 12 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:16,360 NVIDIA says this is the company's most significant breakthrough in computer graphics since the debut of real-time ray tracing in 2018 13 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:23,600 It's so powerful. They needed to RTX 50 90s to run the demo the first one actually rendered the game while the second one was on 14 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,840 Sloppification duty now to be fair in that pinned comment 15 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,760 NVIDIA did say developers will be able to tweak DLSS 5's effects 16 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:39,000 So maybe there will be less Sloppified versions of this but I guess we'll find out when it launches this fall and video out some other stuff at GTC 17 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:46,120 But I wouldn't worry about them the keynote was mostly CEO Jensen Wang's excuse to rant out a captive audience about vertically integrated 18 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:53,120 Accelerated computing infrastructure for two hours. See you just fell asleep for a second Microsoft has confirmed that some Samsung 19 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:58,840 PC's running Windows 11 are losing access to their C drive after installing last month's security update 20 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,000 God damn it Windows March was going so good for you 21 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:08,160 The company's known issues page noted that some users are getting hit with access denied errors when trying to access C 22 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:13,160 With the same access issue also cropping up with various apps and system utilities 23 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:17,360 And if anyone asked this is the reason why I haven't responded to emails for the last couple of weeks 24 00:02:17,660 --> 00:02:19,660 You don't have a Samsung laptop 25 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:28,220 Over on Reddit users have been sharing homebrewed fixes that involve logging in as an admin and manually restoring security permissions 26 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:34,560 Fortunately for Microsoft though this actually seems to be more of a Samsung issue than a Windows one because after a joint investigation 27 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:40,600 Microsoft identified the real culprit as Samsung's Galaxy Connect app the son of a bitch 28 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:46,480 Microsoft has since pulled the app from the store and Samsung has republished a stable older version 29 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,920 Though recovery for already affected devices remains limited 30 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:57,700 La that said it's not all L's for Windows users as new insider builds now support monitor refresh rates above a thousand Hertz 31 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:03,480 finally With the possible ceiling reportedly raised all the way to 5,000 Hertz 32 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:10,640 So for those of you rockin thousand Hertz predator f-sex monitor you're finally gonna be getting what you paid for a 33 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:16,520 Barely perceptible decrease in motion blur as rock just quietly revealed its second motherboard 34 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:22,640 That supports both ddr4 and ddr5 on the same board giving budget builders a fighting chance 35 00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:28,400 It actually assembling a PC in today's economy the h610 m combo 2 is a budget 36 00:03:28,640 --> 00:03:34,960 12th through 14th gen Intel motherboard with three dim slots to for ddr5 and one lone ddr4 slot 37 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:41,720 You can't use both types simultaneously and since there is only one ddr4 slot you'd be stuck in single channel 38 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,420 But at least with this motherboard you get options 39 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:52,000 Asrock actually released a bigger version of this bad boy back in December with six RAM slots and dual channel support for the older 40 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:58,320 Dims, but this combo 2 version shrinks things down to hopefully come in a little cheaper because that's the whole point 41 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:04,400 Right although as rock has yet to confirm pricing at least they have some time a report from South Korea's Chosun 42 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:09,680 Biz says Samsung internally expects the RAM shortage to last until late 2028 43 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:17,600 Existential drag with manufacturers now hesitant to build too much new capacity for fear of over-investing before the AI boom 44 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:23,360 cools off So if you're building a PC anytime soon 45 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:29,960 Maybe light a candle for your wallet and then sell the candle because you're gonna need the money for a single stick of ddr4 memory 46 00:04:30,280 --> 00:04:35,160 To sit beside your empty ddr5 slots plus the sick deal from our sponsor 47 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:42,400 Okay, so the quick bits through a bit of a wrench in my conspiracy theory because they had too much sugar on our last stake 48 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,400 Out and started a wrench fight 49 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:53,880 Rich through a wrench Apple just announced the AirPods Max 2 with upgraded features including studio quality mics 50 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,920 live translation and a camera remote all for 51 00:04:58,840 --> 00:05:04,960 $549 for just $50 more you could get the Mac book neo an entire computer or for $150 more 52 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:10,560 You can get the Mac Pro wheels which are wheels or for zero extra dollars 53 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,880 And if you're in the Seattle area you could get a flamethrower 54 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:22,200 Legally we're not telling you to buy a flamethrower But if you had a flamethrower you could probably get a pair of AirPods for free kind of 55 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:31,800 How coercion?
