Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 Founders Edition Review: A Huge Generational Leap in Performance The GeForce RTX 3080 delivers big gains over Turing and the RTX 2080 Ti, but at a lower price. Nvidia's GeForce RTX 3080 Founders Edition is here, claiming the top spot on our GPU benchmarks hierarchy, and ranking as the best graphics card currently available — provided you're after performance first, with price and power being lesser concerns. After months of waiting, we finally have independent benchmarks and testing data. Nvidia has thrown down the gauntlet, clearly challenging AMD's Big Navi to try and match or beat what the Ampere architecture brings to the table. We're going to hold off on a final verdict for now, as we have other third-party RTX 3080 cards to review, which will begin as soon as tomorrow. That's good news, as it means customers won't be limited to Nvidia's Founders Edition for the first month or so like we were with the RTX 20-series launch. Another piece of good news is that there's no Founders Edition 'tax' this time: The RTX 3080 FE costs $699, direct from Nvidia, and that's the base price of RTX 3080 cards for the time being. The bad news is that we fully expect supply to be insufficient to keep up with what we expect to be exceptionally high demand. The bottom line, if you don't mind spoilers, is that the RTX 3080 FE is 33% faster than the RTX 2080 Ti, on average. Or, if you prefer other points of comparison, it's 57% faster than the RTX 2080 Super, 69% faster than the RTX 2080 FE — heck, it's even 26% faster than the Titan RTX! But there's a catch: We measured all of those 'percent faster' results across our test suite running at 4K ultra settings. The lead narrows if you drop down to 1440p, and it decreases even more at 1080p. It's still 42% faster than a 2080 FE at 1080p ultra, but this is very much a card made for higher resolutions. Also, you might need a faster CPU to get the full 3080 experience — check out our companion GeForce RTX 3080 CPU Scaling article for the full details. We have a separate article going deep into the Ampere architecture that powers the GeForce RTX 3080 and other related GPUs. If you want the full rundown of everything that's changed compared to the Turing architecture, we recommend starting there. But here's the highlight reel of the most important changes: The GA102 is the first GPU from Nvidia to drop into the single digits on lithography, using Samsung's 8N process. The general consensus is that TSMC's N7 node is 'better' overall, but it also costs more and is currently in very high demand — including from Nvidia's own A100. Could the consumer Ampere GPUs have been even better with 7nm? Perhaps. But they might have cost more, only been available in limited quantities, or maybe they would have been delayed a few more months. Regardless, GA102 is still a big and powerful chip, boasting 28.3 billion transistors packed into a 628.4mm square die. If you're wondering, that's 52% more transistors than the TU102 chip used in RTX 2080 Ti, but in a 17% smaller area. Ampere ends up as a split architecture, with the GA100 taking on data center ambitions while the GA102 and other consumer chips have significant differences. The GA100 focuses far more on FP64 performance for scientific workloads, as well as doubling down on deep learning hardware. Meanwhile, the GA102 drops most of the FP64 functionality and instead includes ray tracing hardware, plus some other architectural enhancements. Let's take a closer look at the Ampere SM found in the GA102 and GA104.

Best SUVs for Parents Who Don't Hate Driving in 2021 Trump again calls for $2,000 checks as Covid aid bill remains in flux Fishermen discover body of missing mother floating in California canal The Drive logoBest SUVs for Parents Who Don't Hate Driving in 2021 The arrival of little ones into this glorious world means having to alter your transportation methods. You know the drill: Get rid of the sports car or flashy convertible for something with more doors, seats, and cupholders. And more often than not, that also means frumpy looks and mediocre driving dynamics. Not all hope is lost, however, because 2021 ushers in several crossovers and SUVs that could soften the blow of selling that roadster of yours, or at the very least help you miss your single-cab pickup a bit less. Crossovers and SUVs (and for the purposes of brevity, we're using the latter term across the board here) typically get lambasted by enthusiasts for being awful, high-riding machines that have changed the automotive landscape and somehow introduced horrid driving dynamics to the masses. (You know, because all those heavy, large, American sedans, wagons and trucks of yore were universally so sharp and nimble.) The truth is that SUVs and crossovers are cash-making machines for automakers, providing the funding necessary to build all the cool stuff enthusiasts love. But you don't need a sports car for driving fun anymore. In recent years, SUVs have even gotten substantially better at this whole "driving experience" thing--and not just by stuffing huge engines under the hood like Dodge did with the Durango Hellcat, but by grafting high-tech suspensions, brakes, and other tech and components from supercars into family-haulers. The result? Powerful, agile, cool-looking, and fun SUVs. Yes, I just said fun. If you don't think so, just check out the list below.

8 Ways to Stay Healthy and Prevent Cancer 1. Maintain a Healthy Weight Keeping your weight in check is often easier said than done, but a few simple tips can help. First off, if you’re overweight, focus initially on not gaining any more weight. This by itself can improve your health. Then, when you’re ready, try to take off some extra pounds for an even greater health boost. To see where you fall on the weight range. Tips Integrate physical activity and movement into your life. Eat a diet rich in fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Choose smaller portions and eat more slowly. For Parents and Grandparents Limit children’s TV and computer time. Encourage healthy snacking on fruits and vegetables. Encourage activity during free time. 2. Exercise Regularly Few things are as good for you as regular physical activity. While it can be hard to find the time, it’s important to fit in at least 30 minutes of activity every day. More is even better, but any amount is better than none. Tips Choose activities you enjoy. Many things count as exercise, including walking, gardening and dancing. Make exercise a habit by setting aside the same time for it each day. Try going to the gym at lunchtime or taking a walk regularly after dinner. Stay motivated by exercising with someone. For Parents and Grandparents Play active games with your kids regularly and go on family walks and bike rides when the weather allows. Encourage children to play outside (when it’s safe) and to take part in organized activities, including soccer, gymnastics and dancing. Walk with your kids to school in the morning. It’s great exercise for everyone. 3. Don’t Smoke You’ve heard it before: If you smoke, quitting is absolutely the best thing you can do for your health. Yes, it’s hard, but it’s also far from impossible. More than 1,000 Americans stop for good every day.Tips Keep trying! It often takes six or seven tries before you quit for good. Talk to a health-care provider for help. Join a quit-smoking program. Your workplace or health plan may offer one. For Parents and Grandparents Try to quit as soon as possible. If you smoke, your children will be more likely to smoke. Don’t smoke in the house or car. If kids breathe in your smoke, they may have a higher risk of breathing problems and lung cancer. When appropriate, talk to your kids about the dangers of smoking and chewing tobacco. A health-care professional or school counselor can help. 4. Eat a Healthy Diet Despite confusing news reports, the basics of healthy eating are actually quite straightforward. You should focus on fruits, vegetables and whole grains and keep red meat to a minimum. It’s also important to cut back on bad fats (saturated and trans fats) and choose healthy fats (polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats) more often. Taking a multivitamin with folate every day is a great nutrition insurance policy. Tips Make fruits and vegetables a part of every meal. Put fruit on your cereal. Eat vegetables as a snack. Choose chicken, fish or beans instead of red meat. Choose whole-grain cereal, brown rice and whole-wheat bread over their more refined counterparts. Choose dishes made with olive or canola oil, which are high in healthy fats. Cut back on fast food and store-bought snacks (like cookies), which are high in bad fats. Buy a 100 percent RDA multivitamin that contains folate. 5. Drink Alcohol Only in Moderation, If at All Moderate drinking is good for the heart, as many people already know, but it can also increase the risk of cancer. If you don’t drink, don’t feel that you need to start. If you already drink moderately (less than one drink a day for women, less than two drinks a day for men), there’s probably no reason to stop. People who drink more, though, should cut back. Tips Choose nonalcoholic beverages at meals and parties. Avoid occasions centered around alcohol. Talk to a health-care professional if you feel you have a problem with alcohol. For Parents and Grandparents Avoid making alcohol an essential part of family gatherings. When appropriate, discuss the dangers of drug and alcohol abuse with children. A health-care professional or school counselor can help. 6. Protect Yourself from the Sun While the warm sun is certainly inviting, too much exposure to it can lead to skin cancer, including serious melanoma. Skin damage starts early in childhood, so it’s especially important to protect children. Tips Steer clear of direct sunlight between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. (peak burning hours). It’s the best way to protect yourself. Wear hats, long-sleeve shirts and sunscreens with SPF15 or higher. Don’t use sun lamps or tanning booths. Try self-tanning creams instead. For Parents and Grandparents Buy tinted sunscreen so you can see if you’ve missed any spots on a fidgety child. Set a good example for children by also protecting yourself with clothing, shade and sunscreen. 7. Protect Yourself From Sexually Transmitted Infections Among other problems, sexually transmitted infections – like human papillomavirus (HPV) – are linked to a number of different cancers. Protecting yourself from these infections can lower your risk. Tips Aside from not having sex, the best protection is to be in a committed, monogamous relationship with someone who does not have a sexually transmitted infection. For all other situations, be sure to always use a condom and follow other safe-sex practices. Never rely on your partner to have a condom. Always be prepared. For Parents and Grandparents When appropriate, discuss with children the importance of abstinence and safe sex. A health-care professional or school counselor can help. Vaccinate girls and young women as well as boys and young men against HPV. Talk to a health professional for more information. 8. Get Screening Tests There are a number of important screening tests that can help protect against cancer. Some of these tests find cancer early when they are most treatable, while others can actually help keep cancer from developing in the first place. For colorectal cancer alone, regular screening could save over 30,000 lives each year. That’s three times the number of people killed by drunk drivers in the United States in all of 2011. Talk to a health care professional about which tests you should have and when.

Biden calls for Trump to sign COVID-19 economic relief package President-elect Joe Biden has called on President Trump to sign the bipartisan end-of-year spending bill that would provide $600 COVID relief checks to most Americans. The president has demanded the checks be increased to $2,000 — a Democratic proposal his own party rejected on Christmas Eve. "It is the day after Christmas, and millions of families don't know if they'll be able to make ends meet because of President Donald Trump's refusal to sign an economic relief bill approved by Congress with an overwhelming and bipartisan majority," Mr. Biden said in a statement on Saturday. Mr. Trump tweeted on Saturday "I simply want to get our great people $2000, rather than the measly $600 that is now in the bill." Mr. Trump also indicated he wanted to get rid of the "pork" in the bill. I simply want to get our great people $2000, rather than the measly $600 that is now in the bill. Also, stop the billions of dollars in “pork”. Mr. Trump indicated in a video posted to Twitter Tuesday that he would not sign the $900 billion relief package passed by both houses of Congress on Monday. The package provides $600 in direct payments for adults making up to $75,000 per year, as well as $600 toward each dependent child under 17 years old. If the president does not sign the bill, he will not only delay money needed by millions of Americans; he will also put relief provisions already in place — but set to expire at the end of the month — such as unemployment programs and an eviction moratorium, in jeopardy. Roughly 12 million Americans are set to lose unemployment benefits the day after Christmas if these programs expire. The bill also included an additional $300 per week in unemployment insurance; aid for small businesses; funding for testing, tracing and vaccine distribution; additional money to increase SNAP benefits; and aid for airlines and transportation. "Today, about 10 million Americans will lose unemployment insurance benefits," Mr. Biden warned in his statement urging Trump to sign the bill. "In just a few days, government funding will expire, putting vital services and paychecks for military personnel at risk. In less than a week, a moratorium on evictions expires, putting millions at risk of being forced from their homes over the holidays." The president is currently at his home in Palm Beach, Florida, where the bill was flown Thursday evening for his signature — or veto. Mr. Trump spent the day before Christmas golfing, and, two days later, has yet to announce his plan for the bill. He tweeted about the bill twice on Saturday, amongst numerous others about the "rigged" and "stolen" presidential election, which he continues to claim, without evidence, contained widespread voter fraud. Mr. Biden called Trump's inaction an "abdication of responsibility" with "devastating consequences." "Delay means more small businesses won't survive this dark winter because they lack access to the lifeline they need, and Americans face further delays in getting the direct payments they deserve as quickly as possible to help deal with the economic devastation caused by COVID-19," reads the president-elect's statement. "And while there is hope with the vaccines, we need funding to be able to distribute and administer them to millions of Americans, including frontline health care workers." "In November, the American people spoke clearly that now is a time for bipartisan action and compromise. I was heartened to see members of Congress heed that message, reach across the aisle, and work together," the statement continued. "President Trump should join them, and make sure millions of Americans can put food on the table and keep a roof over their heads in this holiday season." In addition to demanding an increase to $2,000 in the economic relief package, Mr. Trump on Wednesday vetoed the National Defense Authorization Act over a portion of it known as Section 230, which provides legal immunity to tech companies, such as YouTube and Facebook, for content posted on their sites. The president and some Republicans in Congress have accused tech firms of using the law as a shield when allegedly censoring conservative voices, and have pushed to repeal it. "I will not stand by and watch this travesty of a bill happen without reigning in Big Tech. End Section 230 now, before it is too late," the president tweeted on Saturday. "So bad for our Country. Show courage, and do what's right!!!"

With Destiny 2's Beyond Light, The Original Destiny Story Finally Makes Sense Back when Destiny first came out in 2014, one of the things that it most struggled with was telling the story of its vast and strange world. Set in a distant, alien-filled post-apocalypse in which flying robot flashlights resurrect the dead to turn them into immortal superheroes, Destiny packed so much seemingly random stuff into its original campaign that it was truly challenging to follow. Part of what made Destiny 1 kind of a mess was that while you were being bombarded with all of those worldbuilding elements, Bungie decided to tell about half of one story, toss it out midway, and start another one. And that was all the fault of a weird character who showed up, pointed you at a new threat, famously gave you no explanation, and then disappeared for years: the Exo Stranger. With Destiny 2's Beyond Light expansion, we've finally seen the return of the Exo Stranger six years later. Along with her return, Bungie is, at long last, taking the time to explain. In fact, there's a whole lot of story baked into Beyond Light--and it all finally fills in the gaps of what happened in Destiny 1. In a big way, Beyond Light just recontextualized everything that has happened in Destiny up to now, upending our understanding of the story. After six years, Destiny 1's story kind of makes sense now. What Happened In Destiny 1 In order to understand what Beyond Light has clarified, you need to know what actually happened in Destiny 1. Not only has it been a while since that game came out, but as mentioned, its story doesn't give you much to go on. It begins with your character getting resurrected by your robot buddy Ghost, turning you into a Guardian for the first time in a place called the Cosmodrome in old Russia. The gist of your job as a Guardian is to fight on behalf of humanity against various alien threats. More specifically, you're meant to stand against a super-powerful entity or race or force called the Darkness, which invaded the solar system centuries earlier to end the age of human prosperity in an event called the Collapse. The Darkness has since left the solar system, but it so devastated everything that Guardians are constantly worried about dealing with it sometime in the future. Newly (nearly) immortal, you come across the Hive, Destiny's death-worshipping monster enemies, who are hiding in the dark down in the ruins in Russia. They should not be there. See, the Hive mostly hang out on the moon, which they invaded years in the past. They got a good foothold there, too, creating a vast subterranean tunnel network filled with ritual spaces and temples. Eventually, the Vanguard, the military command structure in charge of Guardians, got the superheroes together in numbers in order to go kick the Hive off the moon. That counterattack failed spectacularly and a mess of Guardians died, mostly at the hands of Crota, one of the Hive's pantheon of leaders who are effectively immortal living gods. Crota had a sword that could absorb Guardians' Light, the power that makes them immortal, and he used it to massacre a whole bunch of them. Guardians abandoned the moon and quarantined it, leaving the Hive there--until you discover evidence that the Hive are starting to drop "seeders" on Earth that would allow them to start building an invasion force. So you go to the moon to figure out what the Hive's deal is, where you discover they're performing a ritual that drains the Light from the Traveler, the big robot god that showed up in the solar system centuries earlier, bringing humanity into a Golden Age of discovery and prosperity. All the aliens want to destroy or subjugate the Traveler, and it's from the Traveler that Guardians get their power. You put a stop to some of the Hive's immediate plans, without really knowing the scope of what they're up to. But you also don't really have time to worry about it, because there's something more important happening. Partway through your time on the moon, you receive a strange message directing you to Venus. Head there, and you're met by the voice on the other end of the radio, belonging to the Exo Stranger. At this point, you're not worried about the Hive anymore--the Stranger tells you about a much worse threat from the time-traveling alien robots known as the Vex. They have a weird home that exists outside of normal space and time called the Black Garden, and in the Garden is a wad of Darkness, called the Heart of the Black Garden. If you don't kill the Heart, whatever the hell it is, uh...bad things will happen. ("I don't even have time to explain why I don't have time to explain," she famously says, later leading to the introduction of a tongue-in-cheek Destiny gun called No Time to Explain.) So the rest of Destiny is about finding a way into the Black Garden, which takes you across Venus, to the distant Reef (the colonized name for the Asteroid Belt), and to Mars. Eventually, you fight your way into the Black Garden, smash the Vex faction there known as the Sol Divisive, and destroy the gooey Heart. Darkness is stopped, apparently. The day is saved. The Exo Stranger tells you that you did a good job and then vanishes. Six years go by, with more scary alien threats rising, only to be put down by your gun. It never becomes especially clear what you did in the Black Garden or why it was important, beyond the usual "kill Darkness because it's bad" reasoning. In Beyond Light, however, we've discovered what killing the Heart was all about, and how it was a crucial moment for the entire rest of the Destiny story. The Exo Stranger's Past The details about the Exo Stranger took years to drip out through Destiny lore. Over time, however, we started to understand that the reason she showed up in Destiny 1 for three minutes to point us at the Black Garden is that she was from the future. Her intervention in the original game's story was an effort to change that future, but it took quite a while for us to find out what, exactly, she was trying to prevent. Beyond Light fills in a huge part of the Stranger's background. We find out that she's actually Elsie Bray, the granddaughter of famed industrialist Clovis Bray. You'll see Clovis's name all over buildings in Destiny, and his company had a huge presence on Mars. Clovis Bray was responsible for creating Rasputin, the giant AI Warmind that controlled the solar system's defenses, and the Exos, a race of robots with human minds (and one of your three race choices when creating a character). The Exo program is what we're interested in. Back during the Golden Age (the time before the Darkness invaded), Clovis was struggling to turn humans into Exos, which he was doing in pursuit of immortality. He finally cracked the secret of transferring a human mind into a robot body by utilizing a mixture of Vex technology and "Clarity," Clovis's name for the energy generated by the Darkness. See, when the Darkness exited the solar system, it left some things behind. On the moon, Clovis Bray scientists discovered a huge black pyramid that also doubled as a spaceship, which turned out to be one of the vessels of the Darkness. The energy coming off the vessel corrupted the scientists, but Clovis received messages from the Darkness directing him to Europa. There, he discovered Clarity Control, a huge Darkness artifact that looks like a statue and which gives off the energy Clovis dubbed Clarity. With it, he was able to solve his Exo problem, while studying and trying to harness Darkness energy. Elsie joined him in his research and eventually became an Exo, saving her life from a degenerative genetic disease that was killing her. During the Golden Age, Elsie helped fight off a Vex invasion of Europa, one that was made possible by Clovis's research. In doing so, she seemingly gained some pretty extensive knowledge of the time-traveling robots and their capabilities. That'll be handy later.

Vendors Confirm Rocket Lake-S Support On 400-Series Motherboards Rocket Lake approaching... Although Intel never explicitly expressed it, the general expectation was the impending 11th Generation Rocket Lake processors would slot fine into the current LGA1200 motherboard with the 400-series chipset. If there was any doubt, multiple motherboard manufacturers have officially confirmed the processors' backward compatibility. ASRock, for one, has already updated various product pages to affirm support for Rocket Lake. The new description now reads "Supports 10th Gen Intel® Core Processors and 11th Gen Intel Core Processors (LGA1200)," with the latter alluding to Intel's Rocket Lake-S chips. Thus far, the preliminary list of motherboards (via momomo_us) includes the various offerings from different tiers, such as the Z490 Aqua, Z490 Phantom Gaming-ITX/TB3, Z480 Creator, and H470 Steel Legend. On the other hand, Biostar reportedly shared a banner advertising Rocket Lake-S support on the brand's Z490 motherboards. The vendor has also updated the motherboard product pages to reflect the change. However, it would appear that Rocket Lake-S's rapport might only be with the company's Z490 motherboards since the B460 product pages don't proclaim support for 11th Generation chips. While it's possible to enable Rocket Lake-S processors on all LGA1200 motherboards, we suspect that support will vary from one motherboard vendor to another. Besides the shift to the Cypress Cove microarchitecture, one of Rocket Lake-S's biggest attraction is PCIe 4.0 support. Nonetheless, some vendors might not have initially purposed some of their 400-series offering to support PCIe 4.0, especially the entry-level motherboards. That could be the explanation of why Biostar didn't mention Rocket Lake-S support on non-Z490 motherboards. The current consensus is that Intel will probably take advantage of CES 2021 to announce Rocket Lake-S, which should come accompanied by new 500-series motherboards. Availability, however, is another story. If one Twitter user's roadmap is genuine, Intel might not commence Rocket Lake-S mass production until January 2021, meaning that the processors won't be hit the retailer shelves until February or even March.
