BIOMATRIX INTRODUCES POY, THE WORLD'S FIRST UBI TOKEN WITH 60 YEARS ISSUANCE
COMMITMENT

Sponsored Content | Cryptocurrency & Mining | Apr 23, 2024 1:55 PM CDT

Entering the digital future, I have had the chance to explore BioMatrix's
cutting-edge blockchain platform. As a technology enthusiast, the idea of the
Proof of You (PoY) token caught my attention at first, especially with its
pledge to "distribute wealth in a fair and equitable manner."



The selling point of the PoY token is that it is not just a digital asset, but
it is an integral part of the company's Universal Basic Income (UBI)
distribution strategy, which is designed to connect the user's biological
identity to blockchain technology - an important development that could help
bridge financial divides around the world.

At its recent launch in Dubai, the BioMatrix platform showcased its potential to
redefine the UBI landscape. Like many other secure platforms, BioMatrix is built
with user empowerment in mind, and leverages advanced AI and blockchain
technology to facilitate its ecosystem growth and expansion. However, the key
difference that sets BioMatrix apart from other UBI platforms is using newer
cryptography solutions like Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKP) to protect user privacy
and security.

UNREAL ENGINE 5.4 BRINGS SIGNIFICANT UPDATES TO RAY TRACING AND RENDERING FOR 60
FPS GAMING

Kosta Andreadis | Gaming | Apr 25, 2024 12:58 AM CDT

Although it's an update aimed at game developers, 3D artists, and other creators
who use Unreal Engine, the latest Unreal Engine 5.4 update is chock full of good
news for gamers across PC, PlayStation, and Xbox, especially for games that will
fully utilize Unreal Engine 5's ray tracing and Nanite rendering capabilities.



Many of the updates and improvements are based on developers targeting 60 FPS,
and this performance level is becoming the new norm for gamers. "With many
developers targeting 60 Hz experiences, we've invested significant effort into
improving rendering performance in UE 5.4," Epic writes.

This includes software variable rate shading (VRS) via Nanite, which will bring
"substantial performance gains" to rendering while improving hardware
ray-tracing (GPU instance culling has been added) and path-tracing performance.
The update notes that ray tracing performance is sometimes improved by a factor
of 2X.

SK HYNIX PLANS $14.6 BILLION ON NEW CHIP FAB IN SOUTH KOREA TO MEET 'SOARING
DEMAND' OF HBM

Anthony Garreffa | Artificial Intelligence | Apr 25, 2024 12:29 AM CDT

SK hynix has pledged another 20 trillion won (around $14.6 billion USD or so) in
preemptively responding to "soaring demand" for HBM memory, which is a key part
of AI GPUs.



The South Korean memory giant plans to complete the construction of its new fab
in November 2025. Geared up and ready for early mass production, the fab will
make major investments in enhancing AI memory market leadership and contributing
to the domestic economy in South Korea.

SK hynix's board of directors has approved the plan, which will see the company
building the new M15X fab in Cheongju, North Chungcheong Province, for a new
DRAM production base, with an investment of around 5.3 trillion won (around $3.9
billion USD or so) for fab construction.

YOU CAN PICK UP AMD'S FLAGSHIP RDNA 3 GPU, THE RADEON RX 7900 XTX, FOR $850

Kosta Andreadis | Video Cards & GPUs | Apr 24, 2024 11:59 PM CDT

A flagship GPU rarely gets a significant price cut; when you get to the absolute
high-end, the high-end performance drives interest, with price coming in second.
Just look at NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 4090. It's an absolute monster of a GPU, but
it is selling for around $100 - $200 more than its eye-watering $1,599 USD MSRP.
And it's a popular option for PC gamers, according to the latest Steam Hardware
Survey.



AMD's RDNA 3 flagship, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX, doesn't compete with the GeForce
RTX 4090. Its closest NVIDIA counterpart is the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER, released
earlier this year. As the flagship RDNA 3 card with 24GB of GDDR6 memory and
decent second-generation ray-tracing performance, it's still very much a 4K
powerhouse for PC gaming.

This is why being able to pick one up for $849.99 is a great deal for PC gaming
enthusiasts. Granted, this is limited to a single model, the PowerColor
Hellhound Radeon RX 7900 XTX, and a single retailer - Newegg. Members can get
$100 off the regular $949.99 for a limited time by entering a code at checkout.

GIGABYTE CONFIRMS AMD RYZEN 9000 SERIES PROCESSORS ARE COMING SOON

Kosta Andreadis | CPU, APU & Chipsets | Apr 24, 2024 11:02 PM CDT

AMD will most likely announce its new line of Zen 5 desktop processors at
Computex 2024 - and now we can confirm that the line-up will be called the AMD
Ryzen 9000 Series thanks to GIGABYTE.



In preparation for AMD's not officially confirmed or announced next-gen Ryzen
CPU launch, the big AM5 motherboard makers have started releasing BIOS updates
to support future or next-gen Ryzen CPUs. Joining companies like MSI and ASUS,
GIGABYTE has released an 'AM5 Next Gen' BIOS update for its GIGABYTE AM5 X670,
B650, and A620 motherboards.

The announcement makes it very clear what this is for, stating that the update
brings support "for the coming AMD Ryzen 9000 Series" of processors. It doesn't
get any more clear-cut than that. Zen 5 is coming very soon, and the desktop
line-up will be called the Ryzen 9000 Series.

QUALCOMM DETAILS ITS SNAPDRAGON X ELITE: ALL SKUS HAVE NPU WITH 45 TOPS FOR AI
WORKLOADS

Anthony Garreffa | CPU, APU & Chipsets | Apr 24, 2024 10:28 PM CDT

Qualcomm has been trying for many, many years now to get its Windows on Arm
chips up to scratch -- with very, very mixed results -- and now we're being
introduced to the new Snapdragon X Elite, which Qualcomm calls the "world's
fastest NPU for laptops".



The new Snapdragon X Elite laptop chip has the Qualcomm AI Engine with
integrated Qualcomm Hexagon NPU (Neural Processing Unit) with 45 TOPS of AI
workload performance. In comparison, Intel's current-gen Core Ultra "Meteor
Lake" CPUs top out with 10 TOPS (pun not intended, but it works so well here),
while AMD's new Ryzen 8040 "Hawk Point" APUs have 16 TOPS of AI performance.

Qualcomm's new Snapdragon X Elite chip has 75 TOPS of AI performance across the
CPU + GPU + NPU and micro NPU, while it's made on the 4nm process by TSMC. On
the CPU side of things, we've got the Arm-baed Oryon CPU with 12 cores on the
Snapdragon X Elite, or 10 cores on the Snapdragon X Plus.

THERE'S A CAPSULE TOY MACHINE IN JAPAN THAT SPITS OUT INTEL CORE I7-8700 CPUS
FOR AROUND $3

Kosta Andreadis | CPU, APU & Chipsets | Apr 24, 2024 9:57 PM CDT

Capsule toy vending machines, or 'gacha' machines, can be found all over Japan.
They dispense random toys and collectibles for a small fee, with themed machines
covering everything from popular anime franchises to Hello Kitty to stuff as
simple and pure as dinosaur toys. Now, we can add Intel CPUs to the list, as
someone has spotted a capsule toy machine in Japan that dispenses random Intel
CPUs.



Over on X, user @LaurieWired posted a link and YouTube clip from Sawara-San
(which is in Japanese) showing that they managed to snag an Intel Core i7-8700
CPU for just 500 Yen (which is around $3 USD) from this CPU Gacha machine. The
machine is located outside 1's PC, a store that sells new and second-hand PC
parts and things like cameras.

The Intel Core i7 8700 is not that old, with the eighth-generation Coffee Lake
from 2018 closely matching the performance of the flagship Intel Core i7 8700K.
It's old by 2024 standards for mid-range CPUs, but for around $3, it's a
bargain. It's a 6-core 12-thread CPU with a 4.7 GHz Boost Clock - not too
shabby. Except, this random 'gacha' version ran into issues.

NVIDIA IS HELPING JAPAN BUILD THEIR BLEEDING-EDGE ABCI-Q QUANTUM SUPERCOMPUTER
WITH HPC AND AI

Anthony Garreffa | Artificial Intelligence | Apr 24, 2024 9:36 PM CDT

NVIDIA has announced that Japan's new quantum supercomputer will be powered by
NVIDIA platforms for accelerated and quantum computing.



Japan's National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST)
is building a hybrid cloud system of quantum computers and supercomputers called
ABCI-Q. Quantum computers are still capable of making a lot of errors if they're
operating solo, with supercomputers needing to solve the mistakes and make those
complex operations smoother.

NVIDIA is providing the AI GPUs for the new ABCI-Q quantum supercomputer and
quantum computing software through its cloud service. NVIDIA will provide over
2000 of its H100 AI GPUs in 500+ nodes interconnected by NVIDIA Quantum-2
InfiniBand, the world's only fully offloadable, in-networking computing
platform.

TSMC DOESN'T NEED ASML'S NEW HIGH-NA EUV LITHOGRAPHY MACHINES FOR ITS NEXT-GEN
A16 PROCESS

Anthony Garreffa | Business, Financial & Legal | Apr 24, 2024 9:14 PM CDT

TSMC has said that its new chip manufacturing technology -- A16 -- will enter
production in the second half of 2026, where it will be in a semiconductor
battle with Intel for the world's fastest chips.



During a news conference in Santa Clara, California, on Wednesday, Taiwan
Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) executives said that AI chip makers
will be the first adopters of its new A16 process technology rather than
smartphone makers like Apple.

Intel came out banging its chest in February this year, saying that with its new
High-NA EUV lithography machines from ASML, the company would make the world's
fastest chips in the coming years with its new Intel 14A process node. TSMC's
senior vice president of business development, Kevin Zhang, told reporters that
TSMC has developed its new A16 process node quicker than expected, thanks to the
insatiable demand from AI chip companies like NVIDIA.

NOCTUA'S NEW NH-L12SX77 LOW-PROFILE CPU COOLER IS PERFECT FOR SMALL FORM-FACTOR
SFF PCS

Kosta Andreadis | Cases, Cooling & PSU | Apr 24, 2024 9:06 PM CDT

Putting together a small form factor (SFF) gaming PC, or productivity PC, can be
a lot of fun, as you can fit some serious hardware inside sleek and stylish
cases like the Fractal Design Terra.



As one of the premier brands for high-performance and stylish cooling, Noctua
has introduced a new low-profile CPU cooler designed specifically for SFF
builds: the Noctua NH-L12Sx77. It's an improved (and taller) version of its
acclaimed NH-L12S cooler, offering improved thermal performance and more
clearance for RAM modules and motherboard heatsinks.

Like the previous model, it includes a Noctua fan preinstalled underneath the
fin stack. The fan blows upwards, which Noctua describes as "ideal in compact
cases that typically have a perforated panel right above the cooler." With that
in mind, Noctua says the NH-L12Sx77 is perfect for smaller chassis like the
Fractal Design Terra, SilverStone Milo MILO 12, and Louqe RAW S1.
