A plan to integrate OpenAI’s ChatGPT into Microsoft PowerToys for Windows 10 and 11 has been given the green light. It is an interesting case of thoroughly modern tech being shoehorned into a revived 1990s-era Windows accessory program. Software engineer Simone Franco will be working on what is descriptively dubbed the 'ChatGPT plugin for Microsoft PowerToys Run'. The 2020s reboot of Microsoft PowerToys continues to evolve and expand, with useful and modern features that couldn’t have been imagined the first time around. On the ChatGPT plugin for Microsoft PowerToys Run GitHub project page, Franco implies that a test version of the plugin, written in just two hours, was warmly received by Microsoft. After some discussion, Microsoft PowerToys PM Clint Rutkas asked Franco to refine the project and make it available as a Community Plugin. It is now a work in progress. If you aren’t familiar with PowerToys Run(opens in new tab), it is primarily a keyboard-driven quick launcher with convenience and high performance at its heart. To summon it, PowerToys users simply hit Alt+Space and start typing to whittle down applications, folders, or files (or even processes). PowerToys Run can also execute system commands, do simple calculations, convert units, and much more. Using PowerToys Run with ChatGPT via this plugin should be simple and intuitive. Windows users will invoke the PowerToys Run UI dialog box in the usual manner, then enter “??” (without quotes), enter a query terminated by a single question mark before finally hitting enter and waiting for a response. Franco intends to change the “??” plugin activation shortcut as it clashes with normal search. This is just one of several things that must be done to prepare the plugin for prime time. Some other important things that the ChatGPT plugin for Microsoft PowerToys Run needs to get done before general release are; a way for users to store their OpenAI API key, improve the answer display UI (see above, it needs to expand), implement a copy answer click action, localization, and a few other things. Microsoft already brought ChatGPT to Bing and Edge earlier this year. However, some will prefer this PowerToys Run plugin for what is intended to be a mix of immediacy and simplicity. Nineteen PowerToys, including PowerToys Run, were available at the start of April. More are on the way, and if you haven’t checked the range of PowerToys tools available for the last few months, the official Microsoft product page(opens in new tab) is definitely worth a browse.

If you've been considering thinking up your very own controller design via Xbox Design Lab, there's never been a better time than now. That's because Microsoft has added a huge suite of new customization options for the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. The official Xbox Wire(opens in new tab) announcement includes all-new colorways for the controller's casing, buttons, sticks, triggers and accessories. You can even select alternate color options for the analog sticks' rings, the back paddles and the carry case. Prices start from $149.99 / £124.99(opens in new tab) but expect that to rise substantially if you're looking to fully kit your Elite Series 2 with the accessory pack and various color schemes. Still, it's a fantastic option if you're after a controller you can really call your own. Xbox Design Lab has been around for a good few years, initially only offering custom versions of the standard Xbox Wireless Controller. Last year, though, Microsoft added the Elite Series 2 to the lab, but customization options needed to be more robust at the time. Now, the premium Xbox Series X|S controller has about as many customization options as the regular pad, which makes it all the more appealing to purchase via Xbox Design Lab. If you're unsure, though, the site offers a real-time preview of the finished controller, allowing you to customize ahead of time without any guesswork factoring in. Now that the Elite Series 2 has reached some form of parity with the options available for the Xbox Wireless Controller, it's difficult to say where the service goes from here. Personally, I'd love to see some custom designs depicting the best Xbox Series X games. Maybe a piratey skin for Sea of Thieves, or a cool blue-on-black reminiscent of Perfect Dark's iconic protagonist. The sky's the limit, I feel.

Intel has effectively restructured the company's Data Center GPU Max series of compute GPUs. The chipmaker confirmed to Tom's Hardware that it has decided to eliminate the Data Center Max GPU 1350 from its product stack. However, it will introduce a newly-baked Data Center Max GPU 1450 later this year with cut-down I/O bandwidth to cater to 'different markets.' The move comes on the heels of Intel's decision to cancel its Rialto Bridge GPUs in the wake of the restructuring of its AXG graphics division. The initial Ponte Vecchio GPU lineup consisted of the Data Center Max GPU 1550, Data Center Max GPU 1350, and Data Center Max GPU 1100. Intel already launched the 1550 model in the first quarter of this year. The impending Q2 launch for the 1100 model still stands unaffected by the recent addition of the Data Center Max GPU 1450 to the product stack. However, Intel hasn't provided a specific launch date for the Data Center Max GPU 1450 yet, though we do know it will arrive this year. "We launched the Intel Data Center Max GPU 1550 (600W), which was initially targeted for liquid-cooled solutions only. We have since expanded our support by offering Intel Data Center Max GPU 1550 (600W) to include air-cooled solutions. "As a result, we are streamlining our product offerings by removing the Intel Data Center Max GPU 1350 (450W), which was geared for air-cooled solutions. We will introduce the Data Center GPU Max 1450 SKU later in 2023, which has lower IO bandwidth for different markets and will be able to use air- and liquid-cooling solutions. Rounding out our product portfolio, we will introduce the Data Center GPU Max 1100 SKU, which is a 300W PCIe card (Gen5) for broad market deployments," an Intel spokesperson told Tom's Hardware. Intel hasn't yet shared the specifications for the Data Center GPU Max 1450. Nonetheless, logic implies it will be a cut-down version of the Data Center GPU Max 1550, but we haven't yet confirmed. The Data Center GPU Max 1450 will support air- and liquid-cooling solutions, and we suspect it could carry the same 450W TDP rating as the canceled 1350 model. We've reached out to Intel for further confirmation. One crucial detail from Intel's statement is that the chipmaker has tailored the Data Center GPU Max 1450 for "different markets," which we suspect pertains to China. According to Intel, the Data Center GPU Max 1450 will arrive with reduced I/O bandwidth levels, a move that, in all likelihood, is meant to comply with U.S. regulations on GPU exports to China. Remember, US export rules now dictate that the chip-to-chip I/O bandwidth for China-bound GPUs must be less than 600 GB/s. For instance, Nvidia modified its H100 (Hopper) GPU and rebranded it to H800 to tailor it for the now-limited Chinese market. It's reasonable to expect that the Data Center GPU Max 1450 could take a similar approach. Besides replacing the Data Center Max GPU 1350, Intel also expanded the cooling options for the flagship Data Center Max GPU 1550. The 600W GPU was originally only available with liquid-cooled solutions. However, Intel will now offer air cooling on the Data Center Max GPU 1550. Intel's initial plan was to release Rialto Bridge to succeed Ponte Vecchio this year and launch Falcon Shores in 2024 to replace Rialto Bridge. However, the chipmaker has ultimately decided to jettison Rialto Bridge and push Falcon Shores to 2025. As a result, Intel will have to make do with Ponte Vecchio for at least another two years, competing against Nvidia's H100 and AMD's Instinct MI300.

There's no question that Apple is hard at work on its latest next-gen silicon, the Apple M3 chip, but if a new report is correct, then it'll be a lot more advanced than we realized. It has long been speculated that Apple would be going with TSMC's 3nm process for its M3-series chips, but it looks like Apple will skip this iteration entirely and go for TSMC's N3E, which is a more advanced 3nm process at the Taiwanese chip foundry. The report from the China Times(opens in new tab), via Wccftech(opens in new tab), indicates that Apple will be the first customer to use this process node and that it will use it for both the M3 chip expected to power the next MacBook Air and iPad Pro. It might also be using the advanced 3nm node for its A17 Bionic chip, which is what will power a future iPhone and non-pro iPad, but as with all things Apple, take everything with a grain of salt. This company in particular is about as tight-lipped as a Skull & Bones member during pledge week. What an advanced 3nm process might mean for the MacBook Air It was initially thought that the Apple M2 chip announced in 2022 would be fabbed on a 3nm process, but that turned out to not be the case. Whether that's because of lingering issues around Covid and supply chains isn't known, but Apple went with 5nm for both M1 and M2 chips, and it undoubtedly didn't get the performance gains from M2 it was hoping for. The M2 chip is impressive, sure, but its performance improvement over the M1 chip was a fairly standard gen-on-gen refresh. A jump to 3nm though would be much more substantial, actually offering a compelling reason to make the jump from an M1 MacBook Air to an M3 MacBook Air. Personally, I think the MacBook Air (M1) is still the best laptop for most users thanks to its phenomenal performance, excellent battery life, and even better pricing. The price increase for the MacBook Air (M2) is hard to justify, in my opinion, given the modest increase in performance over its predecessor. That could very well change with the jump to TSMC's N3E, which should bring a substantial improvement to performance on the order of 30% or more, as well as even better battery life. Given how poor sales of the M2 Mac lineup have been in the past year, Apple really needs to give people a better reason to switch than a bland redesign and some fancy marketing.

It didn't take long for AMD's Ryzen 7 7800X3D to claim a spot on the list of best CPUs. According to new user benchmarks(opens in new tab), the octa-core chip performs similarly on X670 and A620 motherboards for gaming. However, multi-threaded applications seemingly have a slight performance difference, such as Cinebench 23. AMD recently launched the A620 chipset to provide consumers with an entry-level option to upgrade to Zen 4 and the corresponding AM5 platform. However, A620 motherboards, which start at $85, are ideal for Ryzen 7000 non-X processors with a 65W TDP and an 88W PPT. In addition, higher-end SKUs may boot on A620 motherboards if the firmware allows it. Still, the onboard power delivery subsystem will limit the processor's multi-threaded performance since it won't have the power headroom. One crucial aspect to take into account. While the 88W PPT is the base specification for the A620 chipset, motherboard manufacturers can equip their A620 products with higher power delivery subsystems. This will make things interesting since not all A620 motherboards on the market are built the same. However, a more robust power delivery subsystem conveys a higher cost, so the more premium A620 motherboards may sell very close to B650 motherboards.. The Korean YouTuber compared the Ryzen 7 7800X3D's performance on MSI's Pro X670-P WiFi motherboard and Gigabyte's A620M Gaming X. The former's power delivery system flaunts a 14+2+1 design and retails for $259(opens in new tab). At the same time, the Gigabyte motherboard has an 8+2+1 layout; however, the pricing remains a mystery since it isn't available in any U.S. retailers yet. The X670 test system used the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 420, whereas the A620 test system was on DeepCool AG400. It's unknown why the reviewer didn't use the same cooling for both systems. The systems also had a GeForce RTX 4080 for the gaming workload at 1080p (1920x1080) resolution and 32GB (2x16GB) of DDR5-6000 CL38 memory. The Gigabyte A620M Gaming X has a better power delivery subsystem than your typical A620 motherboard with a 6+2+1 design. However, the difference between it and the Pro X670-P WiFi was evident. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D was running between 4.7 GHz to 4.8 GHz on the MSI motherboard. However, the same chip was limited to clock speeds between 4.4 GHz and 4.6 GHz on the Gigabyte motherboard. Gamers will be happy to know that variance in clock speeds didn't substantially impact gaming performance. The delta was around 3%, so the difference isn't visible unless you run software to record the frame rates. In other workloads, however, the difference is slightly bigger but still within reasonable limits. The MSI Pro X670-P WiFi kept the Ryzen 7 7800X3D running at 4.8 GHz across all eight cores during the Cinebench R23 run. With the Gigabyte A620M Gaming X, the all-core boost clock speed fluctuated between 4.5 GHz and 4.7 GHz. It resulted in a 5% higher Cinebench R23 score on the MSI Pro X670-P WiFi. The reviewer didn't share the motherboard firmware or AGESA versions for the motherboards that he used. Furthermore, each motherboard vendor tunes memory in its way, so memory overclocking is better on certain brands. This is one of the first tests between A620 and X670 motherboards with a Ryzen 7000X3D processor. We'll need additional tests to corroborate the early findings. Furthermore, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D is a 120W chip. It'll be intriguing to see the performance hit on higher-TDP parts, such as the Ryzen 9 7950X or Ryzen 9 7900X, which have a 170W TDP. In the meantime, gamers who particularly want a Ryzen 7 7800X3D for a gaming rig will be fine with an A620 motherboard. If the budget allows it, jumping to a B650 motherboard could potentially maximize the chip's performance.

Rabat - Three Moroccan opposition parties have demanded the creation of a parliamentary inquiry commission to investigate potential fraud and mani[CENSORED]tion of the national energy market. The request comes at the initiative of the Po[CENSORED]r Movement (MP), the Progress and Socialism Party (PPS), and the Justice and Development Party (PJD). The opposition parties echoed concerns about the lack of transparency and potential fraud practiced by some companies involved in importing Russian energy products to mani[CENSORED]te the national market. “Through this initiative, we seek to dispel the doubts surrounding this affair especially since the subject is closely linked to Morocco’s energy security energy bill, inflation, the purchasing power of Moroccans, and the tax revenue,” the opposition parties stressed. According to the joint communique, the committee seeks to contribute to the establishment of “adequate measures either to reassure public opinion or to sanction the parties involved.” Many have raised concerns about potential fraud in the energy sector. Abdelkader Taher, a member of the Socialist Union of Po[CENSORED]r Forces (USF), echoed the same frustrations earlier this year by calling on the Moroccan government to open an investigation into what he described as “mani[CENSORED]tion” of fuel prices by energy companies operating in the Moroccan market. The MP accused some companies of changing the documentation of their Russian imports and passing their products off as imported from the Gulf countries in order to set higher prices. The Wall Street Journal similarly reported on Russian products imported by Morocco and other North African countries, raising concerns that Russian oil was being blended with other countries’ products and re-exported. “That process disguises the ultimate origin of the products and complicates Western efforts to remove Russian fossil fuels from their economies,” the outlet wrote. New data shared by Bloomberg in March shows that Morocco is among the countries that are contributing to increasing Russian diesel exports amid the EU embargo on Moscow. Officials have acknowledged Morocco’s imports of Russian gas. Last month, Morocco’s Minister of Economy Nadia Fettah Alaoui said that Russian gas imports increased by 13% in the period between early January to February 27. Soaring energy prices and food products have sparked a nationwide uproar, with many unions calling for national protests and strikes to condemn the situation. Amid government pledges to mitigate the crisis, prices of such essential products remain out of the reach of many Moroccans whose purchasing power has been harmed. Diesel prices continue to range between MAD 12 and MAD 15, while prices of goods like onions, tomatoes, and potatoes exceed MAD 12. https://www.moroccoworldnews.com/2023/04/354903/moroccos-opposition-parties-renew-concerns-about-russian-energy-imports
