well you know what they say about tech news it never gets old because it's new the
0:05
playstation 5 may rise and
0:09
sooner than expected fornix a Linux focused news site spotted a playstation
0:15
programmer submitting improvements to AMD's first gen ryzen architecture for a
0:19
key component used for ps4 development which is strange because there are
0:24
currently no ryzen powered ps4 products
0:27
now combine that with the fact that playstation boss john kadera told
0:31
investors and analysts that the ps4 is
0:35
nearing the end of its life cycle and we've got a pretty strong indication
0:39
that we might see a playstation 5 running ryzen hardware coming down the
0:44
pipe in a couple of years and as a rabid console enthusiast this excites me
0:50
probably more than anyone else something coming down a pipe
0:55
wait is that more mickey mouse the point is razer has unveiled their latest blade
1:00
15 laptop and a new external GPU
1:04
enclosure called the core x the new model is according to razer
1:09
anyway the world's smallest 15.6 inch
1:13
gaming laptop with the base model being just .66 inches thick and 4.56 pounds
1:20
with smaller bezels around the 1080p 144hz
1:26
display although you can also get a 4k 60hz version inside is a 6 core Intel
1:31
core i7 8750h 16 gigs of RAM and either a gtx 1060 or
1:37
1070 with NVIDIA max q design the corex
1:41
enclosure meanwhile add support for three slot graphics cards and can be
1:45
used with any Thunderbolt 3 enabled Windows 10 laptop or
1:50
macbook although only Radeon gpus will
1:53
work with macOS these new razer doohickeys will cost you a bit more than
1:57
other options starting at 18.99 for the blade and actually a surprisingly
2:01
affordable 299 for the corex but those
2:04
other options do not come with cool green and or RGB leds and dubstep
2:10
trailers so you gotta weigh the pros and cons you
2:13
know harder better faster stronger bigger
2:20
cheaper ssds wait i thought we were talking about something else
2:24
that is what we all want and Intel and micron are here to deliver the two
2:30
companies have announced the industry's first quad level cell or qlc nand dies
2:36
which promise to bring 33 percent more storage per cell than existing triple
2:41
level cell or tlc technology micron is
2:45
already introducing an enterprise targeted product with qlc nand the 5210
2:51
ion SSD at capacities of up to are you
2:54
kidding me 7.68 terabytes
3:00
so this announcement arrives hand in hand with 3rd gen 3d nand that should
3:05
increase the number of layers by 50 this is going to make ssds cheaper and
3:10
bigger so maybe not harder better faster or stronger but hey 2 out
3:16
of 6 is a pass somewhere it's like five o'clock
3:21
somewhere all right guys the time that you have left to get your hands on this
3:25
ridiculous shirt is now a matter of hours not days i spent a grand total of
3:30
12 seconds putting tape on it but that won't matter once it's gone forever
3:35
i'm gonna make it gone forever no it's gonna be gone forever so click the link
3:39
in the description to get yours oh no the adhesive the adhesive has stuck into
3:44
the fibers it actually it pulled off the fibers
3:48
anyway it's time for les morso rapide
3:51
which is in for i know that's french putting notes in about it being french
3:54
all right Intel doesn't seem to be able to get its crap together with its 10 and
3:59
7 nanometer processes so apple and tsmc
4:02
are picking up the slack starting mass production on the a12 chip destined for
4:07
apple's next iphone so apple is now
4:10
beating Intel at semiconductor tech is this how the world ends well the world
4:15
hasn't ended quite yet for htc somehow uh they have just unveiled the htc u12
4:20
plus complete with dual cameras on the back and front touch sensitive sides and
4:26
a price starting at 799 us which i guess
4:29
is fine because i wasn't gonna buy one anyway a new vulnerability has been
4:34
found in AMD ARM and Intel processors
4:37
that exploits processors speculative execution capabilities similar to the
4:42
now notorious spectre and meltdown flaws but researchers were already on top of
4:47
those problems so this one shouldn't be too bad so just click all those pop-ups
4:52
i'm sure it'll be fine google and lg have shown off a super high res OLED
4:58
display for vr headsets with a pixel density of 1
5:05
43 pixels per inch also a 120 by 96
5:10
field of view does that even make any sense to put this in context the vive
5:15
pros display has 615 pixels per inch and a 110 degree
5:20
horizontal field of view so this is a pretty substantial improvement i
5:24
personally can't wait to live in vr then i won't need to read riley's script yay
5:29
that's mean you wrote it in there
5:33
and m.2 drives can generally run without coolers but just in case you were
5:38
worried you can get this enormous m.2 drive heat pipe cooler from
5:44
cryorig if you were feeling like your
5:47
little SSD was making you less of a man
5:50
now you can man it up yeah or lady it up
5:54
or whatever it up you can make it big make it make it bigly again so that's it
5:58
