00:00:00 - 00:25:00

The article discusses the new RTX 4090 graphics card, the dropping of DDR5 memory prices, and the upcoming launch of the new Intel CPUs, the Raptor Lake CPUs. It also mentions that Japan is set to ditch floppy disks in favor of electronic documentation, and that Intel and Broadcom participated in a demonstration of 802.11 be, a new Wi-Fi standard. The demonstration showed speeds of five gigabits per second over Wi-Fi seven using six gigahertz band, compared to two gigabits per second on Wi-Fi six e using six gigahertz band.

• 00:00:00 This week, Nvidia announced an upcoming Rtx40 series of GPUs, while Intel released specifications for its A750 and A770 GPUs. Finally, the thermaltake tower 100 was updated with new production details.
• 00:05:00 Intel announced new xe-cores, xmx engines, and rt cores for its A380, A580, and A770 chipsets, respectively. The A380 and A580 are expected to have a threefold increase in xe-core count, while the A770 has 32x more rt cores than the A580. The A380, A580, and A770 are all expected to have 28x xe-cores and 32x xmx engines. The A380, A580, and A770 are also all expected to have 1 rt unit per xe-core. The A380, A580, and A770 are all expected to have a 225 watt TDP. The A380, A580, and A770 are also all expected to have an eight pin and six pin header. A recent photo shows Zotac's Amp model Rtx 43s on a factory assembly line. The Rtx 4090s are still using a partial flow-through design of the back plate, have led lighting along the logo mark, and are sized at four to almost five slots on the assembly line.
• 00:10:00 According to industry sources, prices for DDR5 chips are expected to continue falling in the second half of 2022. This is good news for computer users, as it means that faster, more powerful kits are becoming more affordable. Additionally, MSI has announced that its first four am5 motherboards will cost between 290 and 1300 US dollars.
• 00:15:00 The RTX 4090 graphics card was shown, DDR5 prices were dropped, and Intel A750 & A770 specs were officially announced.
