Do you like product review coverage for products that are sold out and currently on eBay for hundreds of dollars more? Perfect! We talk about the 9800X3D a lot on this show, and Josh was right about it selling out (and Sebastian was WRONG WRONG WRONG). But also ... GTA5 sales (why not?), Recall Recall, Windows 10 continued support and please please…

What a week. So much exciting news to cover, including the extremely well-received new Intel Core Ultra desktop processors! Does sarcasm evident? Anyhow, we received them, too, but without a motherboard, so not much tested happened before this launch. No worries, we're getting a board, and have turned off our AI assistants. Or have we? Timestamps: …

We've got Intel and AMD teaming up, Click2Cancel making waves, so much ARM discussion where it wasn't meant to be, Windows 11 BSODs (suprise!), a bunch of X86 discussion and a terrible amount of security nightmares!

It was an AMD-heavy show last week, so how about an IntelCast? (Don't worry, there's a lot of non-Intel content - plus at least one of us is a card-carrying member of Team Red). So much (in)Security too: your air-gap is pathetic, Qualcomm zero-day, Linux malware, and DDoS to the max. Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:52 Food with Josh 04:08 Intel Core Ult…

We actually do talk about more than just AMD this week. Plus, we stray from the point a lot while talking about things like dual screen laptops, HP AI infused printers, if maybe you should buy a used RTX 2080ti. All in good fun. 00:00 Intro 02:30 Food with Josh 04:17 AMD Ryzen update (105W mode official, etc.) 06:31 The new X870 motherboards are he…

We're back on the air with the Intel Ultra 200V, keeping offline Office alive, OpenAI manipulations, and some sweet reviews of Fractal gear like their new Era 2 mITX case and their Refine chair. Very mindful. Enjoy the "Caaash" segment too as we smash our way through the news. 00:00 Intro 02:01 Unnecessarily weighing in on the Panels app controvers…

Intel does "fabulous" after seperating, what does MS do after Crowdstrike, after early Threadrippers, after the 4090, and after better AGESA for Ryzen 9000. We get after it this episode, enjoy! 00:00 Intro 01:43 Food with Josh 02:51 Intel spins off fab into separate foundry company 10:24 New AGESA improves Ryzen 9000 inter-core latency 17:42 Thread…

Welcome to the podcast where Josh explains how AMD has the most popular midrange GPU on the market, based on sales from one retailer in Germany in Q1 2024. Other then that, we've got over 12" of penetration, Audible AI, Ford marketing, Z890 defaults and so much more! Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:46 Food with Josh 03:00 AMD shifting their GPU strategy…

Intel Core Ultra 200V: Worlds best integrated GPU!? AMD Ryzen with more performance improvements, and 105W is the power draw for new top rated Ryzen parts. So much more in the timestamps below.

No, Allyn wasn't on the show this week. We just used that 100% authentic photo of him for the thumbnail. But we did discuss the buckets of cash that Nvidia is rolling in, free AMD CPU performance, and QR code hygiene! All that, and so much more below ... Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 03:29 Food with Josh 06:28 NVIDIA's billions 16:01 Free Ryzen performan…

Full crew in the house tonight for all kinds of tech talk with the usual amount of off-topic banter. It's what you deserve. Check the full list of topics below. Real quick though ... Ryzen 9000 testing: You're holding it wrong. Windows 11 installs on non-TPM machines: Stop that. Sonos: Failing. ARM: Gaming GPUs. And when is a 4070 not really the 40…

This episode is just over an hour, and probably a lot more exciting than the Ryzen 9000 launch, itself. Plus Josh had a really messy looking burger. You can't lose. We've got Intel microcode, AMD Ryzen 9k, when is an RTX 4070 a bit less ... it's a tight show. Recorded August 14, 2024. Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 03:27 Ryzen 9900X and 9950X performance …
