    AMD Is Reportedly Prepping for RDNA 5 by Adding a Swath of Driver Patches for GFX13

    AMD has released no fewer than eight new driver patches for Linux, adding support for GFX13 to the open-source kernel driver. It’s all but guaranteed to be way too premature to roll out the welcome mat for a new RDNA 5 GPU, but in the meantime AMD is continuing its efforts to shore up drivers...

    GPU Taskman Is a New Open-Source Monitoring App That Enables Users to See What Apps Are Using VRAM and More

    A new free app called GPU Taskman is giving users the opportunity to see what’s consuming VRAM and every process accessing a system’s GPU. Graphics card monitoring software is nothing new, but over the decades has largely fallen into a rut in just offering a similar set of features such as clock...

    Ubisoft Has Reportedly Put in a Bid to Buy Arkane Lyon from Microsoft

    Could be latest round of layoffs free up some capital, that combined with AC 4 remaster sales. They might also have an unspoken potential investor willing to pony up the difference which of course would be followed by layoffs to pay it back. No matter what, I don't see any positive outcome for...

    That's exactly what I thought would happen too.

    Metro 2033 + Last Light Redux Next Gen Updates Launch for PC a Week Ahead of Console Versions and Reportedly Supports DLSS 5

    Just that the game initially supported NVIDIA 3D Vision and I've played it in 4K in various ways since 3D was dropped. I was always pissed that when Redux launched they didn't really mention how 3D support was dropped but that was also in part to NV removing support in drivers as well. I've got...

    “We Are a Data Center First Company”, Says AMD CEO Lisa Su in a New Interview

    Just to add that those of us providing support on enterprise levels have seen this for decades already. Purchase hardware that requires some kind of subscription level service in order to "unlock" various features. It's only a matter of time, and I truly believe sooner than later and before...

    “We Are a Data Center First Company”, Says AMD CEO Lisa Su in a New Interview

    I know a lot of us are hoping for the bubble to burst, and it's definitley spewing some leaks right now but we all know that nobody will completely abandon such enormous investments. They'll do whatever it takes to rework the money flow to reduce losses and more than a few of us have already...

    Metro 2033 + Last Light Redux Next Gen Updates Launch for PC a Week Ahead of Console Versions and Reportedly Supports DLSS 5

    Just finished playing it and yep, a definite wow factor. Yes, I used a mod for HDR and it would've been nice if they'd included that in the update but otherwise it felt like playing a brand new game. I've played this in 2D, 3D, and now with texture upgrades, DLAA, and DLSS 5 it really felt like...

    Bluetooth SIG Reveals New High Data Throughput (HDT) Standard Increasing Speeds up to 7.5 Mbps, or 4x More than Current Bit Rates

    A little more on this and sad news is that we're still not quite there for 24/192 but a solid 24/96 is here. For 24/192 we're going to need 9.2 Mbps...

    “We Are a Data Center First Company”, Says AMD CEO Lisa Su in a New Interview

    Yep, the writing has been on the wall for some time but many overlooked it in trying to perceive them as the underdog needing support from consumers to stay alive.

    Latest VBIOS Update Is Reportedly Bricking ASRock Radeon RX 7900 XT/XTX Graphics Cards

    A new VBIOS update is causing stress for owners of ASRock RX 7900 XT or XTX graphics cards who report they no longer work after installing the new firmware. Many users may look forward to an update for their graphics card, which, unlike an OS update (looking over your shoulder at Windows), can...

    “We Are a Data Center First Company”, Says AMD CEO Lisa Su in a New Interview

    Speaking with Yahoo Finance, AMD CEO Lisa Su didn’t leave any doubt in anyone’s mind about what kind of company AMD is when she put her cards on the table by saying that “We are a data center first company”. This really shouldn’t come as a surprise, as the tides have been turning for decades […]...

    Bluetooth SIG Reveals New High Data Throughput (HDT) Standard Increasing Speeds up to 7.5 Mbps, or 4x More than Current Bit Rates

    Yeah, I forget the different ones but have read about them. There's been a couple of newer compression techniques over the last couple of years but I think they top out at 24/48 or maybe 24/96 but this could potentially do much better with little or no compression needed in transmission.
