In brief: Samsung's B-die memory seems to have met an unceremonious end, as a new DDR4 product guide from Samsung lists all the 8Gb B-die parts with an EOL (end-of-life) status. Time will tell which ICs will emerge as the next preeminent choice for overclockers. In a new product guide for Samsung's DDR4 memory catalog, Samsung has signaled the end for the venerable B-die memory. Samsung's B-die memory are 8Gb ICs that became very po[CENSORED]r with overclockers on both AMD and Intel platforms alike. Samsung's B-dies were known for their overclocking prowess, as the ICs tended to hit high memory frequencies with fairly tight timings -- and without drinking a ton of voltage. It would seem Samsung is grooming the A-dies to be a successor of sorts, but whether or not they will match the B-dies in terms of overclocking aptness remains to be seen. For the most part, the new product guide lists all of Samsung's 8Gb B-die parts with an EOL '191Q status; the exception is a handful of 8Gb B-die part numbers with a '192Q EOL status.

In context: AMD's product launches are stacked this year and the chip maker has been executing well on its 2019 roadmap so far. However, it seems we'll have to wait a bit longer for a third generation of Threadripper processors, as those have ostensibly been taken off consumer's roadmap for the year. Back in March, AMD revealed a product roadmap that had the third-gen Threadripper family slated for a 2019 release. AMD's 7nm Ryzen 3000-series is highly anticipated, and the processors are expected to launch in the third quarter, or sometime after Computex. It was also expected that the 7nm Threadripper lineup would come afterwards, but it seems AMD has quietly removed them from its 2019 roadmap. A new 2019 product roadmap issued to investors lists only Ryzen 3000 with a "mid-year" release. Speculation might tell us that AMD's 2019 product calendar is already a bit crowded: there's the looming Ryzen 3000 series and Navi GPUs, which we're bound to know more about at Computex. There's also the 7nm Epyc Rome server processors. Then there should be a slew of 500-series AM4 motherboards to complement the new Ryzen chips. Further speculating, we could wonder if the 7nm manufacturing process isn't quite mature enough for all of AMD's 7nm products. AMD's 7nm Ryzen, Epyc Rome, and Threadripper will all feature AMD's chiplet design, and the new 7nm node may not be able to produce enough yields to go around. AMD will undoubtedly cherry pick the best yields for Epyc Rome, and Ryzen will likely get what's left. If 7nm chip supply is going to be tight, then AMD certainly has to pick its shots wisely. In other news, AMD's investor slides also show the 7nm+ Zen 3 as being "on track," while Zen 4 is currently "in design." Computex 2019 is around the corner (May 28th - June 1st) and we'll see what AMD has to show. It's possible that Threadripper 3000 may just need some more time in the oven.

It's almost certain that AMD will launch a 16-core Ryzen 3000 series CPU, and likely more than one. I say "almost" because nothing is ever completely certain, until it is, and we are not quite at that point yet as it pertains to 16 cores and 32 threads of mainstream Ryzen muscle. Disclaimer out of the way, a prominent leaker has posted specs of what he claims is a 16-core/32-thread Ryzen 3000 processor. Twitter user APISAK says he is in possession of an engineering sample (ES), which are pre-release slices of silicon that companies like AMD and Intel send out to OEMs and reviewers for validation and testing. ES specs are not necessarily indicative of the final product, though the closer it gets to launch, the more likely they are. In this case, however, the clockspeeds seem low. According to APISAK, his 16-core/32-thread ES chip has a 3.3GHz base clock and 4.2GHz boost clock. It's not clear what the model is, and apparently AMD switched things up so it can't be decoded using this handy decode chart. While the clocks look low, it's possible that the reported boost clock is an all-core boost. We'd expect that to be in the range of 3.7GHz to 4.2GHz, versus a single-core boost in the range of 4.6GHz to 4.8GHz. Time will tell. AMD has done a good job of keeping things close to the vest up to this point. Unfortunately, that means there is not a lot out there to compare these specs against. The best we have is an entirely separate leak from back in December by Youtuber AdoredTV, which posted a supposed lineup of several Ryzen 3000 series processors, including model names, specs, and pricing. According to that leak, here's a rundown of what AMD has on tap: Ryzen 9 3850X—16C/32T, 4.3GHz to 5.1GHz, 135W TDP, $499 Ryzen 9 3800X—16C/32T, 3.9GHz to 4.7GHz, 125W TDP, $449 Ryzen 7 3700X—12C/24T, 4.2GHz to 5.0GHz, 105W TDP, $329 Ryzen 7 3700—12C/24T, 3.8GHz to 4.6GHz, 95W TPD, $299 Ryzen 5 3600X—8C/16T, 4.0GHz to 4.8GHz, 95W TDP, $229 Ryzen 5 3600—8C/16T, 3.6GHz to 4.4GHz, 65W TDP, $178 Ryzen 3 3300X—6C/12T, 3.5GHz to 4.3GHz, 65W TDP, $129 Ryzen 3 3300—6C/12T, 3.2GHz to 4.0GHz, 50W TDP, $99 All of this has to be taken with a grain of salt, of course. At the same time, we are supremely confident that at least one 16-core/32-thread Ryzen processor is in the cards. AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su hinted as much when talking about the chiplet design that the Ryzen 3000 series uses. "Some people may have noticed on the package some extra room. There is some extra room on that package and I think you might expect we will have more than eight cores," Dr. Su told PCWorld. She essentially confirmed that Ryzen 3000 will scale beyond 8 cores, she just didn't specifically say there will be 16-core chips. In light of this newest leak on Twitter, though, along with the AdoredTV leak and Dr. Su's comments, it would be a surprise if AMD stopped short of 16 cores.

Nvidia has a new GeForce 430.64 WHQL GPU driver available, and in certain situations, it can boost performance by up to 18 percent, the company claims. That lofty figure is tied to World World Z. According to Nvidia, owners of a GeForce RTX 2080 Ti graphics card stand to see up to 18 percent better performance when playing at 1920x1080, up to 11 percent at 2560x1440, and up to 7 percent at 3840x2160. Here's a look at how performance shakes out on other cards, based on Nvidia's own internal benchmarking: Nvidia did not provide specific metrics for any other games, but did say its latest driver is tuned to deliver better framerates in titles that utilize the Vulkan API. In addition, this "Game Ready" driver preps PCs for the upcoming launches of Rage 2 and Total War: Three Kingdoms. "Game Ready Drivers provide the best possible gaming experience for all major new releases, including Virtual Reality games. Prior to a new title launching, our driver team is working up until the last minute to ensure every performance tweak and bug fix is included for the best gameplay on day-1," Nvidia says. Users will also find a small handful of bug fixes with this latest release. They include: Fixes higher CPU usage by NVDisplay.Container.exe introduced in 430.39 driver. [3DMark Time Spy]: Flickering observed when benchmark is launched. [BeamNG]: The application crashes when the game is launched. [Shadow of the Tomb Raider]: The game freezes when launched in SLI mode. [Hitman 2 DirectX 12]: The game crashes. The desktop flickers when videos are played on the secondary monitor. The spike in CPU usage is something Nvidia previously remedied with an optional hotfix. That fix has been rolled into this 430.64 release. As always, you can grab the latest driver through GeForce Experience, or head here to install it manuall

Install an 18-year-old operating system on a Nintendo console for the hell of it, and you'll have my curiosity. But when you do it so you can run Space Cadet Pinball, you have my attention. Redditor We1etu1n did just that last week, posting a picture of the Switch with XP's classic rolling green hills wallpaper and chunky blue taskbar on the Switch hacking subreddit. "I’ve been using the Nintendo Switch as my main desktop for the past few days via L4T Linux," he wrote. "Took me 6 hours to install and reach the desktop. Speed isn’t great but it legit can run Pinball 3D at full speed." I asked We1etu1n, real name Alfonso Torres, a few questions about the mod. What did it take to get it working? And why Windows XP? On that point, Torres said XP porting is pretty po[CENSORED]r in the hacking community—akin to making Doom run on "toasters or calculators," just for kicks. The basis for the project was L4T Ubuntu, a Linux build "based on Nvidia's Linux for Tegra project." It's customized for the Switch hardware. And once you have proper Linux running on something, it opens up all sorts of options. "As for XP, it was using the VM software by the name of QEMU, which is an open source i386 (x86) emulator," Torres wrote. "It emulates a 1GHz single core 32-bit x86 based CPU. This lets me run x86 OSes virtualized as the switch is an arm64 device." L4T recognizes the Switch's dock as a USB-C hub, turning it into a miniature PC with USB keyboard/mouse support and HDMI output. And it's actually a pretty damn good one, apparently. "The Switch is quite the powerful system," Torres told me. "Since the Linux build came out, I've been using it as my main machine to do all my work on, and so far it has worked excellently. There's a few programs that don't run because they don't have arm64 builds (such as Spotify & Discord) but there's ways around that. I'm actually typing these replies to you on the Switch." Rad. But as for why we're really here—Space Cadet Pinball. Torres took a video for me, showing the game running A-OK inside the Windows XP virtual machine, with one disappointing exception: Audio didn't work in the VM. Well, no biggie: I remember the sound effects well enough to make them in my head.

Alright Best Buy, you’ve got our attention. $230 off a Dell G-Sync monitor that should normally cost $600? Not bad. It's offering the Dell 27" LED QHD G-Sync monitor for a heavily reduced $369.99, and that’s very good going for something with a 144Hz refresh rate and ultrafast 1ms response time. True, it's a TN instead of an IPS, but unless you're viewing from an extreme angle, this is a decent price for what you get. Why’s G-Sync important, though? Put simply, this Nvidia technology reduces screen tearing and stutters for a better visual experience. As explained in our guide to the best G-Sync monitors, it also “synchronizes refresh rates to in-game pictures and those of your PC to, ultimately, eliminate tearing and stuttering altogether, enhancing the speed and smoothness of your monitor's display.” You’re lucky if you can get a good G-Sync monitor for under $600, so having one available at just $370 is a bargain. As for specs, this monitor has: Screen size: 27-inch Panel type: TN Aspect ratio: 16:9 Resolution: 2560 x 1440 Response time: 1ms Refresh rate: 144Hz Weight: 15.2 lbs

Mechanical hard drives have proven a resilient storage medium over the years, just as floppy disks once were, before USB flash drives eventually took the baton. Will HDDs see the same fate? Not today and not tomorrow, but it's bound to happen one day. It's certainly trending in that direction, with one of the biggest suppliers of HDD motors anticipating a massive decline PC HDD shipments this year. Our friends at AnandTech came across a report by Nidec (PDF), a Japanese motor manufacturer that produces HDD spindle motors found on around 85 percent of all HDDs. It's fair to say that Nidec has a pulse on the HDD market. According to the report, HDD shipments continue to slide, with PC HDDs being hit the hardest—shipments of PC HDDs are on pace to drop in half from 124 million units in 2018 to 65 million units in 2019. Shipments were declining more gradually before this point, with 289 million units shipped in 2013. However, PC HDD shipments are about to fall off a cliff. It's not difficult to understand why. Just as USB flash drives effectively supplanted floppy disks (for the most part), PC storage schemes have been transitioning to much faster solid state drives. This past year, we have seen NAND flash memory pricing go into free fall, leading to much more affordable SSDs than ever before. Crucial's MX500 in 1TB form, one of the best SSDs for gaming, can be had for only $129.95 right now. We've also seen 1TB SSDs drop below the $100 mark. It's not just SATA drives, either—just last week, Intel's 1TB 660P NVMe SSD was on sale for $101.99. SSDs have reached the point of being viable for consumers and OEM system builders alike—these days we routinely see desktop and laptop deals with SSDs inside instead of HDDs. Of course, if looking only at the amount of storage, HDDs still offer a better bang-per-buck, or bang-per-gigabyte. As such, I don't anticipate them joining floppy disks in the near future, especially since hundreds of millions of HDDs are still being shipped annually when factoring in data centers and non-PC devices. But the gap is definitely closing, especially on home PCs.

HyperX's Cloud Alpha still ranks as one of the best gaming headsets, but if it's a wireless solution you're after, the company's Cloud Flight is on sale for $89.99 right now. That's down from its $139.99 list price, and a still a good chunk lower than its $120 to $130 street price on Amazon, which it sold for during the entire month of April. The standout feature is that it's wireless, with HyperX claiming up to 30 hours of battery life if you turn off the LED lighting. Otherwise you can expect 13 hours (solid) to 18 hours (breathing) of battery life. HyperX Cloud Flight Headset | Wireless | $89.99 (save $50) This lightweight and wireless headset offers up to 30 hours of battery life, uses large 50mm neodymium speakers, and is a bargain at under a Benjamin. Buy at Amazon We have not spent any hands on time with this headset, but our friends at TomsHardware have. TH describes it as a "fantastic, no-frills wireless headset" that delivers "great sound, a crisp mic, and long battery life." TH also said it is one of the "most comfortable designs out there." High praise for a relatively affordable headset.

Surfing on seedier corners of the web where malware is known to hang around is obviously risky business, but when it comes to downloading updates for a widely used utility or grabbing a new driver, we take for granted that the manufacturer is pushing out clean code. Unfortunately, that isn't always the case. There is a hacking group that is actively mucking with trusted downloads, and nobody can seem to figure out the group's exact identity. That latter bit is troubling, though the bigger concern is that no downloads are safe. Users of Asus's Live Update utility recently found that it out when it was discovered that hackers had compromised a version of the software on the company's website, which effectively allowed the culprits to install backdoors on an estimated half a million Windows PCs. "A small number of devices have been implanted with malicious code through a sophisticated attack on our Live Update servers in an attempt to target a very small and specific user group. Asus customer service has been reaching out to affected users and providing assistance to ensure that the security risks are removed," Asus said at the time. Asus is not the only victim, though. According to a detailed Wired report, the hacking group that infiltrated Asus is the same one that also infected a previous version of CCleaner, a po[CENSORED]r PC cleanup utility. The hacking group responsible is conducting what are known as supply chain attacks because they exploit the software distribution channel. This is particularly insidious, as customers typically assume that software grabbed directly from the vendor is safe. Supply chain exploits of at least half a dozen companies over the past three years are all believed to have been carried out by the same hacking group. Security firms have different names for the group. It's mostly known as Barium, though has also been referred to as ShadowHammer, ShadowPad, and Wicked Panda. They all point to the same group. Supply chain attacks seem to be this group's thing. Not a lot is known about the group, other than it's believed to operate out of China. It could be a single individual (unlikely), a few individuals, a lot of hackers. Researchers just don't know. "They're poisoning trusted mechanisms," Kaspersky told Wired. "They're the champions of this. With the number of companies they've breached, I don't think any other groups are comparable to these guys." What's odd is that despite the potential to dole out mass damage, the group seems to be focused on smaller targets. For example, out of the 600,000 machines researchers say were affected by the breach at Asus, the malware filtered out targets based on MAC addresses to just 600 machines. And with CCleaner, only around 40 computers out of 700,000 that were infected received a follow-up piece of malware. Other than the group's exact identity, there is a lot that researchers don't know at the moment, including how the hackers are able to infiltrate so many companies, what the group's ultimate goal is, and who exactly they might be targeting (and why). What's also concerning is the potential to do a lot more damage. Silas Cutler, a researcher at Chronicle, has been tracking Barium. He told Wired that the group could unleash a "far more devastating" attack than NotPetya, a Russian cyberattack that caused record $10 billion in damages. All Barium would have to do is deploy a ransomware worm through one of these attacks, Silas says. The nature of a supply chain attack makes it difficult to avoid being infected, outside of never updating your software. That is dangerous in and of itself, though. Your best bet is to stay diligent with frequent antivirus scans, and never assume that anything you download is safe, no matter where it came from.

If you listen closely—real closely—you still won't be able to hear Corsair announcing its newest mid-tower PC case, the Carbide Series 175R RGB. That's because it arrived without any fanfare, which is somewhat of a surprise, considering it brings with it a reasonable price and a streamlined design that may appeal to someone building a PC on a budget. That's to say Corsair did not issue a press release on this addition. Perhaps one is coming, but for now, we can get all the info we need (save for a hands-on impression) from the newly erected product page. Corsair's newest Carbide chassis takes residence between the 100R and 275R. From a design standpoint, it has more in common with the latter, including an edge-to-edge tempered glass side panel. The 175R RGB doesn't introduce anything too wild or crazy to the aesthetic. It has a brushed metal front panel that angles out on each side, with Corsair's logo stamped on it. The logo lights up, and the case also comes with a 120mm RGB fan, the two of which fulfill the RGB designation in the model name. This is not a case for massive amounts of storage—it has a couple of 3.5-inch drive bays in the bottom and a pair of 2.5-inch drive mounts behind the motherboard tray. That should be sufficient for most builds, though, especially if you factor in that just about every motherboard now comes with at least one M.2 slot. For added cooling, users can install two additional 120mm fans up front (for a total of three), plus two more 140mm or 120mm fans up top and a 120mm fan in the rear. Alternatively, there is room for up to a 360mm radiator, if going the liquid cooling route. Front panel connectors consist of two USB 3.0- ports and a headphone/microphone combo jack, all of which are sandwiched between a power button and a reset button. The case is available to order now on Amazon, though there is no mention of when it will actually ship (it shows as being temporarily out of stock at the moment).

nice. he is so cute . he need just little of he need little of training . @SKYFALL take care of this angel ✌️
