oh no oh
0:03
yep i wanted tech news but not like this
0:08
like this optane memory an important part of every pc or at least Intel hopes
0:13
to get there someday and the company has unveiled optane dc persistent memory
0:19
it's a tongue twister in the form of standard ddr4 modules with capacities of
0:25
128 256 and 512 gigs now that's pretty cool
0:32
unlike normal RAM optane ddr4 isn't as
0:36
fast but it's persistent meaning that these like memory modules will retain
0:42
data even when the system is powered down that means that it could be used as
0:47
both RAM and storage Intel says that
0:50
this will eliminate the need to wait for data to be moved between the two and
0:55
increase the amount of memory available for processors to work with these first
0:59
modules will only be available on Intel's next gen xeon platform but
1:04
if it spreads to the mainstream this could fundamentally change pcs as we
1:08
know them we should eliminate all sorts of redundant things like where no socks
1:12
and sandals are not redundant the sandals keep your feet protected
1:16
from staples on the floor and the socks protect other people from the smell of
1:20
your feet oh crap ed can you grab me the TechLinked shirt
1:24
we only have one
1:33
oh there that's better the names and clock speeds of four new ryzen
1:37
processors have leaked online thanks to a motherboard compatibility list posted
1:41
by asrock the document lists the ryzen 3 2300x ryzen 5 2500x and some other ones
1:47
that we'll just put on here while these e-series chips are likely to be low
1:51
power versions of the 2600 and 2700 as
1:54
they're sporting a 45 watt TDP the 2300
1:57
and 2500 x's look like they're aimed at budget overclockers and enthusiasts we
2:03
likely won't need to wait much longer to hear about these as they'll probably
2:06
show up at computex next week but will they be enough to take on AMD's fiercest
2:11
rival qualcomm wait what yes that's right qualcomm nice
2:16
segway maker of primarily mobile chips
2:19
is poised to come up in a big way in the pc space microsoft has been working to
2:25
create full desktop grade Windows 10 devices based on ARM chips and it looks
2:31
like ASUS is working on just such a
2:34
device codenamed primus
2:38
it will reportedly be based on qualcomm snapdragon 1000
2:43
chip which will be powerful enough to drive desktop
2:47
experiences just like ARM's a 76 CPU which they
2:52
announced yesterday we're even seeing native
2:55
64-bit ARM-based apps pop-up vlc just
3:00
released a compatible version of their video player is there anything vlc can't
3:04
do so get ready to compute on your phone or call people on your pc i mean you can
3:10
do both of those things already but but this time it'll be different yes trust

3:53
sort of all right much has been made of NVIDIA's
3:57
allegedly plan to release its next-gen
4:00
gpus in july but a talk from the company has been spotted on the schedule for the
4:04
hot chip symposium in august titled
4:08
NVIDIA's next-gen mainstream GPU so even if we don't get the 1180 in
4:13
july keep your pants warm for august they probably will be already yay summer
4:18
except us do we have a global audience okay the australians are not appreciating this right now sorry
4:23

looks like the actual phone's internals but oh they were so close
4:42

visas payment network went down across vast swaths of europe today leaving
4:52
customers unable to pay with things via credit card like that four dollar word i

a gif of some guy getting enthusiastically kicked off a mountain
