In a memory market dominated by lavish designs and excessive RGB lighting, Patriot launched the Viper 4 Blackout series for the few that still appreciate the simple things. However, what the memory lacks in looks, it makes up for in performance. Patriot markets the Viper 4 Blackout as high-performance memory, so the series doesn't embrace slower frequencies. The offerings start at DDR4-3000 and gradually peak to DDR4-4400, the flagship memory kit and the one we have in for review today. Staying faithful to its name, the Viper 4 Blackout memory features an all-black, aluminum heat spreader that's devoid of RGB lighting. Although the memory modules evidently lack the bling, they will fit nicely into the majority of PC builds. The low-profile yet aggressive design finds the memory module with multiple fins at the top and the Viper branding on both sides of the heat spreader. Measuring just 42.6mm (1.68 inches) tall, we don't expect the Viper 4 Blackout memory modules to cause any troubles with big CPU air coolers. Sold in a dual-channel package, the Viper 4 Blackout memory kit consists of two 8GB single-rank memory modules. For this particular memory kit, Patriot went with Samsung K4A8G085WB BCPB (B-die) integrated circuits (ICs) that reside on an eight-layer, black PCB. The Viper 4 Blackout operates at the baseline DDR4-2133 frequency with the timings set to 15-15-15-36. The memory modules, which are compatible with the AMD platform, have two XMP profiles baked into them. One profile is for the advertised DDR4-4400 frequency with 18-26-26-46 timings and a 1.45V DRAM voltage, while the other corresponds to a DDR4-4200 profile for at 18-22-22-42 with 1.4V. For more on timings and frequency considerations, see our PC Memory 101 feature, as well as our How to Shop for RAM story. Our Intel test system consists of an Intel Core i9-10900K and Asus ROG Maximus XII Apex on the 0901 firmware. On the opposite end, the AMD testbed leverages an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 and ASRock B550 Taichi with the 1.30 firmware. The MSI GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Gaming Trio handles the graphical duties on both platforms. The Viper 4 Blackout is currently the fastest memory kit that has passed through our labs. The memory kit didn't dominate in every benchmark, but overall, it finished first in both the performance and gaming charts. Like other high-speed memory kits in its category, the Viper 4 Blackout will only excel on an AMD platform if your processor can run the Infinity Fabric clock (FCLK) and memory clock (MCLK) in synchronous operation. Unfortunately, our Ryzen 5 3600 isn't one of those processors, which restricted the Viper 4 Blackout's performance. The Viper 4 Blackout runs at DDR4-4400 with a 1.45V DRAM voltage. Increasing it to 1.5V only got us to DDR4-4500 with very loose timings of 21-26-26-46. It may just be a 100 MHz increase, but it's an acceptable margin for a high-speed memory kit like this one. The lowest timings that the Viper 4 Blackout would allow at DDR4-4400 are 17-25-25-45. Of course, we had to increase the DRAM voltage to 1.5V to be able to drop the timings by one clock cycle. High-frequency memory has gotten cheaper over the years, and the Viper 4 Blackout DDR4-4400 C18 memory kit is proof of that. It's fast, but more importantly, it won't cost you an arm and a leg. In fact, the Viper 4 Blackout is one of the more affordable DDR4-4400 memory kits on the market right now. With a $134.99 price tag, Patriot's offering is right up the alley of some of the flashier but lower-clocked memory kits, such as those that land in the DDR4-3200 to DDR4-4000 range. Although DDR4-4400 isn't an overly-exaggerated frequency, plug-and-play shouldn't be considered a given, either. Ultimately, your setup (mainly the processor and motherboard) will dictate whether a bit of manual tuning is required to get the memory kit to live in harmony with the rest of your system. If you're already decided on a DDR4-4400 memory kit with 16GB of capacity, we don't think the Viper 4 Blackout 4 will disappoint you.

Volkswagen’s fifth ID electric car, a production version of the ID Vizzion concept, will offer a range of up to 435 miles when it’s launched in the UK during the final quarter of 2023, according to the German car maker’s head of research and development, Frank Welsch. Known to Volkswagen insiders under the name Aero-B, the future rival to the BMW i4 and Mercedes-Benz EQE is set to be called the ID 6 and will be offered in both saloon and estate forms, with similar exterior dimensions to the current Passat but interior room comparable to the larger, now-discontinued Phaeton. Built on the Volkswagen Group’s EV-specific MEB platform, the new model will follow the ID 3 hatchback, the recently revealed ID 4 SUV, the ID 5 coupé-SUV that’s due to be revealed next year and a production version of the ID Buzz MPV that’s due in 2022. While the ID 6 title isn’t official yet, the number six has connotations of wellbeing in China, Volkswagen’s biggest market, and the large saloon is expected to be particularly po[CENSORED]r with Chinese buyers. The ID 6 will be offered with one motor for rear-wheel drive or two motors for four-wheel drive. The latter layout will also underpin a GTX performance model that Welsch said will be capable of 0-62mph in around 5.6sec. By comparison, the single-motor model will have a 0-62mph time of about 8.5sec. The first ID models to be produced at Emden will be the ID 4 and ID 5 in 2022, with both built at Volkswagen’s Zwickau plant in the interim. Additional production of the ID 6 is expected to take place in China through Volkswagen’s Chinese joint-venture partners, SAIC and FAW, from 2024. Meanwhile, Autocar can confirm that Volkswagen is planning to upgrade the charging capacity of the ID 3. It will receive a 130kW charging option next July, plus a 170kW option is set to become available by December 2021, allowing a 93-mile range extension on a 10-minute charge. As with other ID models, the ID 6 is set to be sold with a choice of battery sizes. While it’s still in the early stages of development, Welsch claimed the largest battery, an 84kWh pack mounted within the flat floor of the MEB platform, will provide the car with a range of around 700km, or 431 miles – some 89 miles more than that quoted for the ID 3 Pro S, which has a 77kWh battery. Welsch pinpointed improved lithium battery cell efficiency, a reduction in rolling resistance and new aerodynamic developments as being central to the longer range of the ID 6. Additionally, the model is planned to support charging at a rate of up to 200kW, allowing around 143 miles of range to be added in just 10 minutes from a DC rapid charger. Production of the ID 6 is set to take place at Volkswagen’s Emden plant in Germany from 2023. The current home to Passat and Arteon production is currently undergoing a heavy upgrade that Volkswagen claims will provide it with annual capacity for up to 300,000 EVs by 2023.

Moroccan industry is “doing well” and has recovered from the COVID-19 crisis, Minister of Industry Moulay Hafid Elalamy said Wednesday. “In August 2020, all [industrial] sectors recorded higher growths than the rates recorded during the same period in 2019, except for the aeronautics sector which witnessed a 14% decrease,” Elalamy said. According to the minister, Moroccan industry returned to its normal level in July and began exceeding the monthly growth rates recorded in 2019. The sector’s recovery, however, will not make up for the months of low activity due to the nationwide COVID-19 lockdown, Elalamy said. The annual growth of Morocco’s industrial sector in 2020 will be lower than the figure recorded in 2019. Elalamy made a presentation about Moroccan industry and its resilience to the COVID-19 crisis during the 94th Carrefour Diplomatique meeting. Moroccan NGO La Fondation Diplomatique hosts the sessions to regularly bring together senior Moroccan officials and foreign ambassadors in Morocco to discuss the country’s social, political, and economic scene. During the recent meeting, Elalamy presented Morocco’s industrial strategy that allows the achievement of concrete results. “The sustainability of the national industrial strategy not only helps preserve the strategy but also adjust it as government change, without impacting its efficiency,” he explained. The industry minister gave the example of the automotive sector, which now represents a major part of Moroccan industry. Elalamy said that Morocco’s automotive sector has surpassed all expectations thanks to the country’s industrial strategy. Read also: Automotive: Morocco to Produce Up to 1 Million Vehicles Per Year by 2030 He recalled that Morocco set the objective of creating 500,000 new jobs in the automotive sector and producing 600,000 vehicles per year by 2023. The country, however, was able to exceed the objectives by the end of 2019, four years earlier than planned. In 2019, the automotive sector employed 505,000 people in Morocco and produced 700,000 vehicles. The country’s industrial strategy is completely reshaping the fabric of Moroccan industry, Elalamy said. He explained that Morocco’s automotive sector became the leader in Moroccan exports in recent years, overtaking the phosphates industry. The 94th session of Carrefour Diplomatique took place in Rabat with the participation of 50 foreign ambassadors, including 12 who physically attended the meeting and 38 who joined via videoconference. The meeting allowed foreign diplomatic missions in Morocco to learn about the country’s industrial sector and discuss ways to contribute to the sector’s development.

Intel's Chief Architect Raja Koduri tweeted the first images of the company's new Xe HP GPUs that that are currently sampling to Intel's customers. The cards, built on the 10nm SuperFin process, are also being used as the software development vehicle for the Aurora Supercomputer. The exascale-class supercomputer has been delayed due to Intel's struggles with the 7nm node used in its Ponte Vecchio GPUs, but due to similarities between the cards, the new Xe-HP cards can be used to develop software for Aurora. The image above shows the already-announced XG310 Intel data center GPU flanked by the new Xe-Hp models. The variant on the left is clearly a traditional PCIe 3.0 x16 add-in card (AIC) with a full-height, 3/4 length form factor, just like the XG310 model next to it. As a quick reminder, the Intel-powered XG310 GPU consists of four separate Iris Xe Max discrete graphics chips, formerly codenamed DG1, that are also used as discrete GPUs in laptops. Instead of the typical use case for server GPUs, like machine learning workloads, the four processors work in tandem to process cloud gaming and media transcode and encode workloads for real-time video streaming. Exciting to see these next to each other. Intel's first data center GPU that's in production, between Xe HP GPUs that are sampling to customers. We have ways to go, but an incredible journey so far. 🙏 the incredible team at Intel🙏 2020 is a memorable year for GPU technology pic.twitter.com/2fsJvVeDOKDecember 8, 2020 Given the similarities between the two cards, we can expect the Xe HP GPUs to employ a similar architecture based on multiple Xe graphics die, but paired with HBM memory tied to the GPUs via Intel's EMIB packaging technology. Intel is expected to offer different models with either 1, 2, or 4 tiles (GPU die) to satisfy various workload requirements. single-slot designs have a relatively tame TDP limit. On the right, we can see a single auxiliary 8-pin power connector for the card. A single 8-pin can deliver up to 225W safely, and the PCIe slot can deliver 75W; we're looking at a possible 300W maximum power draw for the card. Intel didn't share further details of the cards pictured, but we expect more details to filter out as they ship to customers.

One of the world’s largest cybersecurity firms has been hacked in what it believes to be a state-sponsored attack. US firm FireEye said that company tools used to test cyber defenses had been stolen, with the attackers primarily looking to target government customers. FireEye has confirmed that the attackers targeted and acquired its Red Team assessment tools that are used to test customer security. An investigation into the attacks remains ongoing, with FireEye working alongside the FBI and select partners, including Microsoft. We've put together a list of the best endpoint protection software Keep your devices virus-free with the best malware removal software Check out our roundup of the best ransomware protection Follow-up attacks As of yet, FireEye has refused to speculate on who the attackers might be but the use of high-level capabilities and a never-before-seen combination of techniques lead them to believe that they have state backing. One of the most worrying aspects of this particular cyberattacks is that it has provided the attackers with a bounty of potential weapons that could be used as part of follow-up attacks. The Red Team tools that were stolen are those that can be hired by companies to carry out mock cyberattacks in order to improve defenses. Although FireEye knows what the tools are and what sort of exploits they can be used to deploy, they will have to act quickly to ensure that safeguards are shared before the cyberattackers make use of their ill-gotten tools. Fortunately, none of the Red Team tools contain zero-day exploits. “Based on my 25 years in cyber security and responding to incidents, I’ve concluded we are witnessing an attack by a nation with top-tier offensive capabilities,” FireEye CEO Kevin Mandia explained. “This attack is different from the tens of thousands of incidents we have responded to throughout the years. The attackers tailored their world-class capabilities specifically to target and attack FireEye. They are highly trained in operational security and executed with discipline and focus. They operated clandestinely, using methods that counter security tools and forensic examination. They used a novel combination of techniques not witnessed by us or our partners in the past.” We've also highlighted the best antivirus software

What is it? Two or three years ago, Citroën explained to us how it was going to give its future cars an SUV look while avoiding the SUV drawbacks of a large frontal area and heavy weight that create more emissions. It had decided it would try to give some rough looks without the frontal area and big ride height, and here is the first example of that plan being put into action: the new C4. Quite interesting-looking, isn’t it? At 1520mm, it’s 25mm taller than the Ford Focus, and it runs here on 60-section tyres, which are positively balloonish by recent standards. There’s also lower-body cladding for fuller effect and a fastback sort of roofline. Are you convinced? It’s a little shorter than the Toyota C-HR, itself barely a crossover, and again by about 25mm. Who knew the BMW X6 would be so influential? This has a less aggressive take on things, mind; Citroën is a company that’s often willing to make its cars look a little unusual, and I don’t think that does the C4 any harm. Similar is true inside, where there’s a wide variety of materials and finishes, from traditional graining to modern technical graining and fabrics, including a bold sash down the door. There’s also a funky new digital dial pack, which is quite small, reminiscent of the one in the Ariel Atom, with a little rev counter and water temperature gauge but a clear speedo, nestled among coloured squares that look like the Breaking Bad logo against gentle backlighting. When I say this car might rapidly date, I mean it as a compliment, in the way that old Citroëns now have a bit of charm and class. There are hints of GS about the rear three-quarter view, aren’t there? Squint a bit. More thrillingly, the C4 gets heating and ventilation controls separated from its infotainment touchscreen. Praise be. The screen itself can mirror your phone, and you may find that preferable to navigating the system itself. The driving position is sound, there’s quite generous space in the rear and the boot capacity is a competitive 380-1250 litres. The C4 is 4.35m long, so not huge for a car in the Volkswagen Golf class. The C4 sits on the PSA Group’s smaller family car platform, which means you get a choice of an internal combustion engine or a battery-electric vehicle powertrain, like you do with the Peugeot 208, Peugeot 2008 and Vauxhall Corsa; the bigger platform offers a choice between ICE and plug-in hybrid. The C4 could have gone either way, as the next Peugeot 308 still might. I’m told each PSA brand gets to make its own call, and perhaps Citroën’s choice of BEV over PHEV will look the better choice as time goes on. I wonder if it has a higher proportion of private buyers to company car drivers than is typical in Europe, as their lower mileages and more regular routes lend them more easily to a BEV. Anyway, here we’re driving the ë-C4, which brings with it a 50kWh battery beneath the floor and a power transfer kit under the bonnet and is front-wheel drive. On the WLTP test cycle, that gives it a range of 217 miles. Avoid starting with a cold battery or doing a lot of high-speed miles if you want to get anywhere near that, as per usual. And it has a maximum charging rate of 100kW. What's it like? To drive, the ë-C4 is very much an EV with some Citroën feel. You sit in a position not unlike that in the Berlingo: not tall-tall but a little tall. There are two pedals and a small, simple gear selector plus the option of a B mode, which gives greater lift-off deceleration but doesn’t allow for one-pedal driving; there’s always creep at low speeds, like in an auto. Those fairly generous sidewalls plus the rolling comfort that Citroën says it’s aiming to put into its cars, rather unashamedly and endearingly, mean the ë-C4 rides relatively gently, but with a little head-toss and cabin shake too, so it hasn’t been totally unsuccessful. The steering is light, short on involvement and feel, as is the rest of the drive. This isn’t really a driver’s car for the likes of you and me. It gathers, retains and loses speed well enough, though. It has 134bhp and a claimed 0-62mph time of 9.0sec, but step-off always feels brisker than that, and there’s very little torque steer to speak of too. There are three trim level options, each around £1000 apart. The ë-C4 seen here is the middle Shine, which is well-equipped. The government’s £3000 grant for EVs leaves it just over £30,000, so in the same realm as the Nissan Leaf and Volkswagen ID 3. Should I buy one? In terms of interestingness, the ë-C4 is probably halfway between those two in terms of both looking at and sitting in it. And with a 50kWh battery, it should go further between charges than their base variants, but it’s not quite as nice to drive as either. Ultimately, though, not unlikeable.
