Nvidia's 4000-series is too close to release to be dropping serious money on today's hyper-expensive GPUs. The fact some graphics cards have dropped below their MSRPs for the first time since release is absolutely good news. The perfect storm of a cryptocurrency crash and the current generation nearing the end of its natural life means the hunger for Nvidia's Ampere and AMD's RDNA 2 GPUs is abating. The thing many of us have been waiting two years for is finally coming to fruition, but that doesn't necessarily mean now is the best time to upgrade your graphics card. Our sister site, Tom's Hardware, has been tracking graphics card prices for a while now, and the latest figures show plenty of cards at far more tempting prices. There are even a few that are below the official MSRPs, although it's telling which cards are, as it tends to be the most expensive offerings. You can for instance grab the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti for around $1,800 at some retailers, which is $200 less than the $2,000 MSRP. It's a similar story for the RTX 3080 Ti, AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT, and the RX 6900 XT, which have all dropped down to less than their original listing prices. It's as you head down the product stacks that the reductions are less impactful though, with our fave GPU of this generation, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080, still sitting some 10% above its MSRP at around $770-$800. Our next pick, the AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT, can be had for the same money. This begs the question though, at what point do you pull the trigger and grab one of these much sought-after cards? Well, hold that thought a second, because there's a reason the more expensive cards have seen bigger price drops, and that will impact the pick of the bunch too the next-generation cards are imminent. We may have been waiting for GPU prices to normalise for two years, but it's hardly like the red and green teams have been sat twiddling their thumbs in that time. Both Nvidia's Ada Lovelace and AMD's RDNA 3 will be released before the year closes out—potentially as early as September—and they're both promising big improvements on the current generation. We're in deep rumour territory here, but leakers have suggested the RTX 4090 will offer up to 2x performance of the 3090 at 4K. It won't be 2x gen-on-gen with every GPU, but we'd expect to see a decent performance uplift across the whole product stack. Even if that means the RTX 4080 equivalent is just, say 50% better than the RTX 3080, that still makes dropping $700 on the current-gen card today look questionable if the new one is potentially just three months from launch. Even allowing for a price increase due to the high demands on TSMC's production lines, the proposed uplift in performance still makes the next-gen cards the ones worth holding out for. At the very least you should find that the current generation of cards will continue to drop in price if there is still a wealth of cards sitting on the shelves, so holding off isn't going to bite you on the ass either. We're expecting the high-end cards to be released first, exactly as they did this generation, making these difficult to recommend right now. The likes of the RTX 3060 Ti, and lower, aren't expected to be replaced until well into 2023 though, so those are the cards that are worth keeping an eye on as they near their MSRPs. Although right now, RTX 3060 Tis are still selling for $100 more than their $400 launch price, so there's no rush here. One thing that could happen, of course, is that Nvidia and AMD could respond to a potential glut of graphics cards by holding off the release of the next-gen cards. Even if this were to happen, there's surely a limit to how long either would want to wait, which means any delay might not be for particularly long. Maybe pushing the release to the end of a month as opposed to the start, due to the demands on silicon production. There's a caveat to all of this of course, and that's if you do need a new graphics card right now if yours suddenly dies for example then that puts you in a very different place than if you just fancied an upgrade. If that's the situation, then you could make a case for picking up the best of the current crop. Although that's going to make for some nervous times as we head into the autumn and the benchmarks for the next generation cards start to appear. It's great that we're finally seeing GPUs at their MSRPs, but it's important not to be blinded by the fact they're available at close to MSRP or even below. It's taken so long to get here, that the next-gen is just around the corner. If you possibly can, therefore, it's worth holding off for now if your upgrade sights are pointed towards the top of the GPU stack. But if your aim is lower down the stack, things are looking good, as they still won't be replaced for a while yet. https://www.pcgamer.com/dont-buy-an-rtx-3080-now/1 point

Apple is facing a £750 million (US$918 million) lawsuit in Britain after a consumer rights champion today filed a claim accusing the US tech giant of secretly slowing down older iPhone models. Justin Gutmann says Apple “throttled” the performance of older iPhone handsets after users installed upgrades that they were told would improve the performance of their device. He claims Apple never told users that the update could slow their device and that the tool was introduced to mask the inability of older iPhone batteries to cope with the demands of newer operating systems. Apple said in a statement that “we have never – and would never – do anything to intentionally shorten the life of any Apple product or degrade the user experience to drive customer upgrades. “Our goal has always been to create products that our customers love, and making iPhones last as long as possible is an important part of that,” it added. Gutmann’s claim with the Competition Appeal Tribunal seeks damages for 25 million iPhone users to the tune of £768 million. The complaint revolves around a power management tool included in a 2017 software update, which slowed down older iPhone models and prevented abrupt shutdowns as they struggled with the overhead of a new operating system. Gutmann says Apple never told users that the update could slow a user’s device and claims the tool was introduced to prevent costly repairs or recalls. “Instead of doing the honourable and legal thing by their customers and offering a free replacement, repair service or compensation, Apple instead misled people by concealing a tool in software updates that slowed their devices by up to 58%,” said Gutmann. “I’m launching this case so that millions of iPhone users across the UK will receive redress for the harm suffered by Apple’s actions”. Apple apologised at the time and said it would replace batteries at cut price and would allow users to turn off the power management tool manually. It has faced legal action in several countries over the issue and agreed to pay up to US$500 million to owners of older models in the US in 2020. French authorities fined the group €25 million in the same year for failing to warn that updates could slow down older models. The claim seeks compensation for owners of the iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6S, 6S Plus, SE, 7, 7 Plus, 8, 8 Plus and iPhone X models. https://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/business/2022/06/16/apple-faces-750-mil-lawsuit-over-iphone-software-update/1 point

National Hardware Limited (NHL) today opened its new $400 million superstore located next to its existing establishments at Industrial Site Ruimveldt, Greater Georgetown. This new facility features a wide variety of hardware and industrial products in a more modern setting complemented with spacious aisles and air-conditioning. NHL’s Managing Director Eddie Boyer, during the commissioning ceremony, expressed that this new store adds to the company’s already impressive establishments – which he contends, provide all of the hardware needs of the country. “…sometimes I can’t remember what we have in stock, but we have it,” Boyer remarked. He noted that the design of this newest facility is influenced by NHL’s US-based partner, Do It Best. “This flagship store, which has been patterned by Do it Best, was designed by Do it Best and this is their modeling…” A unique factor to consider, Boyer explained, is that the building of the store was done by locals. “In most countries, Do it Best normally send their people to do these stores but this one, they didn’t because of COVID and we managed to do every single thing locally, all the designing, fitting up the racks, assembling the store, everything…and they were so surprised…,” Boyer revealed. Meanwhile, delivering feature remarks at the ceremony, Minister of Tourism, Industry, and Commerce Oneidge Walrond posited that an investment of this magnitude speaks to the confidence of the private sector in the Guyanese economy. “I’m advised that this is significant facility, covering some 10,000sqft of showroom space and 4000sqft of warehousing space…each new establishment, each new expansion, each new investment, serves to confirm your confidence, not only in our country’s economy but also in our stewardship of affairs,” the Minister said. She noted too that this investment will support the government’s aggressive housing drive. “Many of the products, which will make their way into thousands of homes, which we, as government, are determined to make available to our citizens, will be supplied by companies such as National Hardware. And in order to make all these products available to citizens, government has reduced, or completely remove taxes of a wide range of building materials,” Walrond reminded. “The second objective which can be impacted by the establishment and expansion of businesses like this is government’s objective of developing our manufacturing sector to become locally, regionally and internationally competitive.” “It is here that we have a special opportunity through firms like National Hardware and others like it, to develop, promote, and showcase our quality, locally manufactured building products,” the Minister added. Also attending the event were President of the American Chamber of Commerce and Industry Guyana (AmCham) Devindra Kissoon and President of the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI) Timothy Tucker, both of whom congratulated the NHL team on the opening on their newest establishment. “This partnership has caused National Hardware to embark on a completely new trajectory, a trajectory of greatness of which it was always destined for,” Kissoon remarked. “Evolution, that is what we are looking at, you’re looking at a family business that is evolving at a rapid pace and to embrace the needs of Guyana and of course Guyanese in general,” Tucker expressed. https://www.inewsguyana.com/national-hardware-opens-new-400m-superstore/1 point

Pecco Bagnaia tested a new fairing in the Barcelona test "that improved the 'top speed' of the Ducati", but recorded that "the one that wins is the slowest bike". This weekend the German Grand Prix is held, the tenth stop on the 2022 MotoGP calendar, or what is the same, we reach the halfway point of the season. Ducati will reach half of the races of the course without having introduced the aerodynamic evolution to which all riders are entitled, by regulation, during the year. Since the pre-season, the riders who, on paper, use the 2022 prototype have not changed their fairing. At the Barcelona test, held in Montmeló on the Monday after the grand prix, Jack Miller, Enea Bastianini and Pecco himself will be able to test the evolution of the 2022 fairing, which was also used by Luca Marini, although only a few turns. "I tried several things and the most important thing was the fairing," Pecco explained at the end of the test. "It worked quite well, I'm happy with it, but it was just to test it. I don't know if we'll use it this year," the leader of the Borgo Panigale project blurted out like a jug of cold water. Pecco Bagnaia already surprised in the preseason by ruling out the latest evolution of Ducati's 2022 engine, asking to face the course (the propellers are sealed and cannot be changed) with a hybrid of the 2021 engine, the one that the factory took to the Jerez de November 2021. Now the boy from Turin has also closed the door to aerodynamic evolution and doubts that the new fairing is really the solution they need. "It can help maneuverability, but it also gives us more top speed. It can help, but this year I prefer more handling and less top speed," he says. "That's the most important thing, Yamaha is the perfect example of that." Pecco is clear about the rider he has to beat if he wants to be world champion: Fabio Quartararo. In the race of the Grand Prix of Catalonia, Miller set the maximum speed in the race with the Ducati (348.3 km/h), while among the riders who finished the test, the slowest bike was that of Quartararo, the winner , with a top speed of 337.5 km/h). "The handling [of the Yamaha] is better at the moment. We can clearly see that top speed is not everything. This year we have improved this a lot, but we still have to work on the grip in lean, like the Yamaha. We are studying that," he valued. The Italian is now waiting for Ducati to evolve this new fairing before making it final and homologating it for use in racing. "If it arrives, it will surely help us in the 'top speed', but as we have seen, the bike that is winning does not have top speed. I have improved a lot with a fairing (the current one) that does not give me as much speed, but it helps in handling. And I would like to continue like this", in reference to the bike's agility in the corners. While Pecco does not see the need to use the new fairing, Miller assured that he does not care what they mount on him, not in vain at the end of the season he will go to another factory. However, who did see the new piece very positively was Enea Bastianini. The one from Gresini has a motorcycle and a 2021 aerodynamic package, and after testing the first 2022 aerodynamic package at the Jerez test (early May), he preferred to wait for the second (the one in Barcelona) before making a decision, assuring that he expected be able to use it after the summer. For Pecco, the fact that other drivers homologate it does not change his plans. "I don't know how it works, it's not me who should decide who can or cannot homologate it, it's a decision that Ducati must make," the #63 settled.
