{Oh NO!}
[Ah] *high pitched* *make it 3 notes*
Wanted tech news but not like this
like this
Optane memory an important part of every PC
or at least Intel hopes to get there someday
and the company has unveiled
Optane DC Persistence Memory
[Oh] it's a tongue twister
in the form of standard DDR4 modules
with capacities of a 128(GB)
256(GB)
and 512(GB) gigs
[oh] that's pretty cool
Unlike normal RAM
Optane DDR4 isn't as fast but it's persistent.
Meaning that these like memory modules will retain data
even when the system is powered down
That means that it could be used to has both RAM and storage
Intel says that this will eliminate the need to wait for data to be moved between the two
and Increase the amount of memory available for processors to work with
these first modules will only be available
on Intel's Next-gen XEON Platform,
but, if it spreads to the mainstream,
this could fundamentally change PCs as we know them
We should eliminate all sorts of redundant things
like right now, socks and sandals are not redundant
The sandals keep your feet protected from staples on the floor
and the socks protect other people from the smell of your feet.
[OH CRAP]
Ed. Can you grab me the TechLinked shirt?
We only have one?
*Romantic music going on* *HOT*
[Oh] there, that's better
the names and clock speeds of four new Ryzen processors have leaked online
Thanks to a motherboard compatibility list posted by ASRock
the document lists the RYZEN 3 2300X
RYZEN 5 2500X
and some other ones that we will just put on here
while these E-series chips are likely to be low-power versions of the 2600 and 2700
as they're sporting a 45 watt TDP
the 2300 and 2500 X's look like they're aimed at budget Overclockers and Enthusiasts.
We likely won't need to wait much longer to hear about these
as they'll probably show up at Computex next week
But will they be enough to take on AMD's fiercest rival?
Q U A L C O M M
{wait.. what?}
Yes, that's right, Qualcomm
--Nice segue--
maker of, primarily mobile chips,
is poised to come up in a big way in the PC space
Microsoft has been working to create full desktop-grade Windows 10 devices based on ARM chips
And it looks like ASUS is working on just such a device
CoDeNaMeD : [_P_R_I_M_U_S_]
It will reportedly be based on
Qualcomm Snapdragon 1000
c h i p
which will be powerful enough to drive
D E S K T O P
E X P E R I E N C E S
just like ARM's A76 CPU
which they announced yesterday.
We're even seeing native 64-bit ARM-based apps popped up
VLC just released a compatible version of their video player
Is there anything VLC can't do?
so get ready to compute on your phone or call people on your PC?
[Ah yeah] I mean you can do both of those things already, But
but this time it'll be different.
{YES.} Trust me.
{NO}
It's time for bit-quits
Haha didn't sit bit quits
bit-quits

Except, our merch really needs some feedback. I mean a lot of you
actually bought this thing
and we do want to make more stuff that you guys will actually want to buy, but
but we can't rely on Pure MeMe Lord-grade MeMeness all the time.
So click the link below to fill out our merch program feedback survey
Let us know what you want to see on the store page
I can imagine some of you suggesting things that are a little bit too outside the box
Like we can't do a flamethrower for anything, but

All right much has been made of NVIDIA allegedly planned
to release its next-gen GPUs in July
But a talk from the company has been spotted on the schedule for the hot chip symposium in August titled
NVIDIA's NeXt-GeN MaInStReAm
G (raphic) P (rocessing) U (nit)
so even if we don't get the 1180 in July
keep your pants warm for August
They probably will be already
[Yey] summer except us.
Do We have a global audience? Ok, the Australians are not appreciating this right now
{Sorry}
Xiaomi has unveiled the Mi 8
a pretty accurate iPhone 10 knockoff right down to the rear camera design
but then they also have
A transparent back version
which may just reveal an internal sticker that looks like the actual phone's internals
But [ah] they were so close
to jerry-rig everything's dream phone.
They were so close
VISA's payment network went down across vast swaths of Europe today
leaving customers unable to pay with things via credit card
like that $4 word I just used
I guess VISA isn't everywhere you want to be
because that's their slogan
I actually didn't even know you wrote in the script that I didn't know that but I didn't know that
While other companies are working on AI assistants
Walmart is perfectly happy just using people
their new Jet-Black service allows you to order products by texting
not to an AI,
but to a personal shopper
a real flesh-and-blood person with thoughts and feelings
and maybe acne
But ain't that amazing?!
after some leaks Ubisoft has revealed the next game in the Assassin's Creed series
Odyssey
with a GIF of some guy getting enthusiastically kicked off a mountain in reference to the movie '300'
Hopefully this game doesn't have Greek people with Scottish accents though.
I don't think that that would be historically accurate
{fun/pun}?
Well, all things must end eventually and that's what happened to this episode.
It ended.
Eventually.
I can't believe it dragged on this long you poor people
