AMD has fully AI-powered frame generation on the way with its FSR Redstone project, but that’s not here yet. In the interim, the company has something interesting: the option to customize “Fast Motion Response” within its “Fluid Motion Frames” technology. In essence, the idea is this: frame generation can cause image artifacting when the camera

Most of the attention on PC and console gaming controllers gets centered on Microsoft’s Xbox and Sony’s DualSense wireless gamepads, but those are not the only options. One that flies under the radar is Amazon’s Luna wireless controller. While designed specifically for Amazon’s Luna cloud gaming service, it’s compatible with other platforms,

Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri took to his platform to “myth bust” claims that the Meta-owned app is listening to user’s microphones for the purpose of pushing targeted advertisements and related content. It has been a prominent theory across several social networking apps for many years that this is happening, but hard evidence actually proving

For years now, folks have been using Rufus to bypass Windows 11’s onerous installation requirements. Got a system without Secure Boot or a functional TPM? No problem! Some buzz was going around that this was no longer possible with Windows 11 25H2, but we’re happy to report that it still works the same as before—thanks to a bugfix patch by

The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) has pushed unprecedented demand for data center hardware, both in terms of graphics chips capable of powering large language models and large-scale data analytics (among many other tasks) , and high-speed, low-latency storage. As such, Phison CEO Pua Khein-Seng claims a severe NAND storage looms. He

Starting on Tuesday, Amazon will kick off its Prime Big Deal Days event and you can bet we will be tracking the better bargains. In the meantime, there are discounts to be right this moment. We went hunting for laptop deals and found a whole bunch of models on sale from the likes of Apple, Dell, Lenovo, and other major brands. Let’s have a

Recently overseas, a Chinese BiliBili user discovered and reviewed a Frankenstein’d NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080…now outfitted with 20 GB of GDDR6X instead of its original 10 GB specification. Like other modified GPUs with more VRAM we’ve seen in the past, this was accomplished by using both sides of the graphics card for mounting additional

Imagine your building not just protecting you from the elements, but also storing electricity. MIT researchers just gave that idea a major push with a new version of “electron-conducting carbon concrete,” or ec³. The material now stores about 2 kilowatt-hours per cubic meter—a tenfold increase over previous versions—enabling the ability to

Along with launching a bevy of new hardware to get customers into its ecosystem, Amazon continues to work on making shopping as friction free as possible. Amazon Prime members will now be able to utilize a new feature dubbed “Add to Delivery” that will make it a breeze to add items to an order without having to go through the steps of creating

ASUS just announced the ExpertCenter PN54-S1 Mini PC, a follow-up to its existing line of PN54 Mini PCs aimed at enterprise customers. The ASUS ExpertCenter PN-54-S1 Mini PC is a lower-end version of the PN54, now touting Ryzen 200 Series processors instead of the Ryzen 300 Series. In turn, these PCs should be lower priced than their Ryzen

ICEBlock, an app designed to inform users of reported sightings of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents within a 5-mile radius, has been removed from the Apple App Store. The app rose to prominence during the immigration raids that took place in several cities earlier this year. Apple made the move to ban the app after being pressured

Among chip nerds, Jim Keller is a name that needs no introduction, but if you aren’t familiar, he’s a veteran from the days of Digital Equipment Corporation. He contributed directly to the DEC Alpha, the AMD K7 and K8 cores powering the Athlon and original Opteron, and then later came back to AMD to direct the design of Zen, before making

Microsoft caused quite firestorm on social media when it announced a significant price increase for its Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription tier. Effective immediately, the new cost is $29.99 per month, marking a 50% jump compared to the old $19.99 per month rate. There are some additional perks that come with the revamped program, but if

Just in case anyone came here with pitchfork and torch in hand, let me make some crystal clear—I absolutely love Sony’s DualSense wireless controller. The latest iteration won me over, after having preferred Microsoft’s Xbox controllers for several generations (which I also like, by the way). Be that as it may, the DualSense is not perfect,

We’re a few days into October and that means there is another Steam survey to digest (as we like to do), the latest of which highlights a couple of interesting albeit not unexpected trends. One of those trends is AMD continue to chip away at Intel’s lead. AMD managed to gain more ground in September among Steam gamers, pushing Intel’s presence

The core principle of a tiny-yet-powerful AI workstation with real Blackwell GPU chops is enticing to a lot of developers and enthusiasts. That’s exactly what’s interesting about NVIDIA’s DGX Spark, powered by the GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip, not to be confused with the GB200 Grace Blackwell superchip that powers NVIDIA’s AI servers. Several

With the help of Stable Diffusion 3, researchers at the University of Tokyo have discovered a way to use AI and Wi-Fi signal information to map a real-time image of a room and the people or objects within it. This implementation, called LatentCSI, uses a combination of existing Wi-Fi Channel State Information (CSI) and Stable Diffusion to

AMD’s socket longevity has always been a strong point for the company. AMD supported Socket 7 longer than anyone, and aside from a few missteps (with Slot A and later, some of the APU sockets), the company has typically tried to offer at least a measure of motherboard compatibility across processor generations. Heck, it just released more

Amidst the buzz and sales of the LEGO Game Boy, we doubt people are surprised to see that hardware modders are already turning them into playable handhelds. It probably helps that the existing buttons are already pressable on the LEGO Game Boy, so you really just need to find a way to get some electronics into the enclosure. We haven’t seen

Amazon announced a blitz of new products for the home, bolstered by the Alexa+ AI subscription service, designed to increase the appeal of its ecosystem. In tow are the company’s entire lineup of security cameras, which can also tap into the power of Alexa+. The timing is interesting too, since Google has released a fresh batch of AI powered
