have you ever seen a miracle well you're about to
what is that tech news it said said chad i don't know
i don't know how to do jazz hands riley AMD's upcoming ryzen 5
a 6 core 12 thread processor has just appeared on passmark CPU benchmark list
taking a single threaded performance lead not only over AMD's previous
generation but also over Intel's current top-end core i9 10-900k
will the real best gaming processor please stand up please stand up although
ryzen has been closing the market share gap on Intel for some time now AMD has
still lagged behind Intel in terms of single threaded performance though if
this new benchmark is anything to go off of that trend is about to come to an end
the 5600 x is expected to retail for 250
less than the 10 900k a bet with four
fewer cores and it remains to be seen how Intel's upcoming rocket-like desktop
chips do to be out next year will stack up currently the number one spot is held
by the 16 core ryzen 9 5950x but i have
a feeling it won't be staying there forever as time is a cruel master that
steers us ever more towards the precipice of uncertainty preach yes
testify we're gonna die one day
facebook is getting into cloud gaming but unlike rivals google amazon and
microsoft they won't be focusing on triple a games instead facebook is
introducing game streaming functionality to instinct games a feature that quickly
downloads small mobile games to the main facebook app facebook has actually come
out and said the focus isn't on fancy algorithms or getting as many frames per
second as possible because you don't need 90 frames per second to have a good
time in farmville yeah speak for yourself yeah i need it i need at least
360. the platform will instead offer more mobile friendly games that are
quote unquote latency tolerant so a
little bit of lag shouldn't ruin your experience the games are free to play
generating revenue through in-app purchases and of course advertising
you'll only be able to get it in some parts of the us at first canada misses
out again come on i want to play asphalt
9 with no i don't that's a lie
i don't want to do that at all you can get power-ups i can play project cars
andy that's true that's way better and one of the features apple toted during
its iphone 12 launch event was something called ceramic shield which is a
stronger cover glass that apple claims provides four times better drop
protection than what we saw on the iphone 11. but the fanciest glass is
still well glass as a recent test from an insurance company allstate has shown
although the screen itself held up well against dropping the phone six feet into
a sidewalk the device still suffered scuffs and cracks and so on the pro
model's rear glass shattered including the camera oh that's bad to apple's
credit though functionality of the phone wasn't actually affected in any case and
it does indeed look like an improvement on the previous generation but don't
expect ceramic shield to keep your phone looking new if the worst happens and no
allstate did not pay us to help them sell phone insurance but you know who
did pay us to sell stuff today it's our quick bit sponsor manscaped the brand

it appears the rtx 30 series mobile chips have been leaked with the product
stack consisting of laptop versions for the 30 80 30 70 30 60 wait no 390 that's
too bad an official announcement should come in january during the all virtual
ces but until then i guess we have facebook no we don't i'm not playing
that well we do have it it's true it does exist
not for me though microsoft has been trying to get users to switch to edge
for some time now so next month if you try to visit youtube instagram or over a
thousand other popular sites on internet explorer you'll get a prompt to say to
use edge instead if you need to use ie you'll still have the option to use
edge's internet explorer mode to load up
a site that otherwise wouldn't render correctly even though we should probably
leave those sites to die in the wild of the old net change or be
destroyed it turns out the contrary to some earlier reports facebook won't ban
you for using two oculus headsets on the same account a customer support rep
initially said this practice would violate the terms of service but the
company has since corrected the mistake on twitter and even stated they were
working towards allowing multiple users to log into the same device that's
comforting now i can go home to my mansion and use my multiple expensive vr
toys in peace get out of here rich boy
but a cooler vr development is in the works as samsung along with researchers
at stanford have developed a new kind of OLED array that features 10 000 pixels
per inch way past the current density of current vr displays samsung is reportedly
already developing a display with new oleds so it shouldn't be some pipe dream
hopefully we'll see in our vr headset soon which could eliminate that pesky
screen door effect because i've honestly just had enough of actual reality yeah
just just go back to your 12 vr headsets rich boy
i will and i'll play project cars with andy
and it might be the end of an era for apple's airpods as it looks like the
company may be working on redesigning the pro model without the signature stem
at the bottom that dangles off your ear of course this isn't exactly a novel
idea as google samsung and many others have stainless wireless earbuds but hey
it's apples so it's a big deal right yeah right they're gonna revolutionize
it yeah so that's our show come back wednesday
for a redesigned episode of tech link and by redesigned i mean it'll be
exactly the same but probably with riley yeah don't you worry maybe james maybe
Linus maybe somebody maybe me but probably not bye
