1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:06,160
so it's friday and i hope your weekend plans evolve a trip to coffee lake

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:11,200
because Intel is going to be delivering an eight cup um eight core coffee-like

3
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:15,920
CPU for the mainstream desktop platform in september according to a report from

4
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:20,480
pc watch the new chip will be an i7 that won't require an enthusiast x-series

5
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:24,000
chipset as Intel's past octa-core parts have it's more than likely the new

6
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:28,320
processor is an effort to keep up with AMD's ryzen refresh and i'm sure that

7
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:32,800
those of you who have followed the CPU wars for a long time can appreciate the

8
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:37,520
irony of Intel trying to compete by just strapping more cords onto a chip the

9
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:42,719
same report indicated that Intel's 2066 enthusiast platform will also be getting

10
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:44,640
a 22 core CPU in september but hopefully

11
00:00:42,719 --> 00:00:49,520
you won't need to jury rig an industrial water chiller to it this time

12
00:00:47,039 --> 00:00:53,120
damn yeah that's what i said too meanwhile something that certainly won't

13
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:56,399
need liquid cooling is samsung's new foldable smartphone which we've just

14
00:00:54,960 --> 00:01:00,800
possibly learned a few more details about to get right to it it's not going

15
00:00:58,559 --> 00:01:04,720
to be cheap speaking to the korea times an industry analyst is expecting a

16
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:10,240
launch price in the neighborhood of 2 million korean won which works out to

17
00:01:07,439 --> 00:01:14,080
about 1800 us dollars this premium will get you a device that will have a 7.3

18
00:01:12,159 --> 00:01:17,759
inch OLED screen when fully open but reduced to 4.5 inches when it's folded

19
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:21,680
up hopefully for samsung this significant shrinkage won't dissuade

20
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:25,680
customers from paying nearly twice as much as they did for the iphone 10 when

21
00:01:23,759 --> 00:01:28,960
it hits the market sometime next year but something that might be hitting

22
00:01:26,960 --> 00:01:33,280
shelves a little sooner is NVIDIA's new touring GPU lineup with a july 30th

23
00:01:31,759 --> 00:01:37,920
launch date haven't been rumored for the past week but today we've got some new

24
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:43,040
details as to what to expect according to a report from tweettown the top end

25
00:01:39,759 --> 00:01:45,759
card will cost either 9.99 or 14.99

26
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:49,439
depending on how much gddr6 memory you want and another report from tom's

27
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:53,520
hardware indicates the new chips will be very much vr focused as not only should

28
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:59,920
they have the performance to drive 4k titles at over 120 frames per second but

29
00:01:56,799 --> 00:02:01,920
they'll use a special yet proprietary vr

30
00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:05,360
connector that can push even higher refresh rates to a vr headset

31
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:12,720
unfortunately we still don't know exactly what the numbering scheme for the new lineup will be the reports

32
00:02:08,399 --> 00:02:14,959
suggest gtx 1185 1190 or maybe something

33
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:18,480
else and speaking of nice it's time for quick bits brought to you by memory

34
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:22,640
express my new favorite electronics retailer whether you're a gamer a

35
00:02:20,239 --> 00:02:26,319
business owner or literally anyone else like a techlinked heckler memory express

36
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:30,000
is your go-to destination up here in canada for electronic products and

37
00:02:27,920 --> 00:02:33,599
services if it uses electricity there's a good chance memory express carries it

38
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:37,680
plus with their uber price beat guarantee they'll beat any authorized

39
00:02:35,599 --> 00:02:41,040
canadian retailers priced by 10 percent of the difference both in store and

40
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:45,440
online so click the link below for all the details okay so now the quick bits

41
00:02:43,599 --> 00:02:50,000
amazon wasn't the only player in the field of just walk out shopping for very

42
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:54,160
long as a reuters report indicates that microsoft is showing their own amazon go

43
00:02:52,239 --> 00:02:57,760
like technology to retail giants like walmart possibly as a response to

44
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:01,440
amazon's technology rolling out at whole foods but i'm mostly wondering what

45
00:02:59,599 --> 00:03:05,200
effect this will have on black friday parking lot violence if you're still

46
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:09,519
running Windows xp or for some masochistic reason Windows vista you can

47
00:03:07,599 --> 00:03:12,879
forget about downloading any new steam games after the end of this year as

48
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:17,040
valve is planning to drop support for those operating systems on january 1st

49
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:20,640
possibly bad news for a few folks using xp for better compatibility with older

50
00:03:18,959 --> 00:03:25,440
games though i'm sure it's good news for the folks over at gog.com the merger

51
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:28,640
between a t and time warner is now complete only a couple of days after a

52
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:32,720
federal judge gave the companies the green light and with net neutrality

53
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:36,799
protections recently repealed in the u.s people are already concerned about

54
00:03:34,239 --> 00:03:41,200
another huge isp acquiring a company that owns properties like hbo and cnn so

55
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:46,959
you might know who to blame if your gains start to lag because your neighbor's really into the sopranos and

56
00:03:44,799 --> 00:03:49,840
speaking of organized crime some law enforcement officials are a little

57
00:03:48,239 --> 00:03:54,959
miffed that apple is preparing to have iphones disable their ability to be read

58
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:56,560
as a data device over usb by default if

59
00:03:54,959 --> 00:03:59,760
the phone has been sitting around for an hour without being unlocked this will

60
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:03,519
make it harder for police to use snooping tools that rely on the usb

61
00:04:01,439 --> 00:04:08,640
connection with one prosecutor down in louisiana even claiming that apple was

62
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:11,370
protecting criminal activity i'm guessing he wasn't referring to the

63
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:16,239
repair policies hey and finally comcast revealed today that

64
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:19,280
it isn't throttling the internet speeds of power users anymore

65
00:04:19,280 --> 00:04:24,479
and essentially hasn't been for over a year citing the fact that heavy use

66
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:28,479
doesn't currently cause network congestion and while this is certainly

67
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:31,680
good news it's also further confirmation that data caps are of no purpose other

68
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:35,759
than to line the pockets of some suits at comcast hq and that's it for today so

69
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:40,639
tune back in on monday as your views help us line our own pockets so we can

70
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:43,840
buy neat stuff like food and housing

71
00:04:40,639 --> 00:04:43,840
okay bye
