RAM manufacturers have begun to compete to prove that their memories are the best in the market. Lately, the frequency records of RAM modules are being broken through overclocking with some ease. Note that overclocking RAM modules is not something simple. Crucial has managed to beat the record with the 8GB Ballistix Elite, reaching 6 024MHz. To achieve these records, liquid nitrogen is needed to maintain temperatures. As is logical, temperatures with overclocking rise a lot and to cool them this liquid is used. The temperature is brought to below zero, but even below zero there are limits. The temperature cannot be lowered infinitely, there is a margin. Crucial breaks the world record for frequencies thanks to the Ballistix Elite This record has been set by the professionals of the overclocking teams of ASUS and Micron. To beat this record, the Ryzen 5 3600X processor has been used. This is interesting, since for this type of records Intel processors are usually used. The motherboard used is the ASUS Crosshair VIII Impact that features the X570 chipset. "Both overclocking teams worked tirelessly to fine-tune the BIOS settings in our recently launched ROG Crosshair VIII Impact to unlock the capabilities of the Micron matrix," said Albert Chang, General Director of ASUS Motherboards. In recent months we have seen Crucial with Ballistix memories in the last five months. Note that Crucial implements memories of Micron, which seems to be the best performance offers.

Malicious attackers have evolved, they no longer want to damage the systems, they prefer other techniques. Kidnapping a system is also not a cost effective solution, the most important thing is data interception. That is why there are more and more elements running in the background stealing data. More and more hackers attack firmware, more vulnerable, as is the case with UEFI BIOS. The reason they focus on the BIOS is that it is the cornerstone of the entire system. The BIOS has privileged access to all components and can modify or adjust parameters. Also, deleting a malware inside the BIOS is complicated, even reinstalling the firmware in the BIOS itself. Hackers increasingly choose to infect the BIOS Microsoft knows this trend and increased security efforts due to the increase in these attacks. To get an idea in 2016, there were only seven attacks focused on firmware. Between 2017 and 2019 there have been more than 400 attacks per year of this type. To increase the security of users Microsoft has started a consortium called ‘secure core’. This consortium has Intel, AMD and Qualcomm, who will collaborate to keep Windows systems safe. AMD has even announced new security measures for systems startup. Windows 10 for its part will have a secure boot system protection system or SGSL based on Windows Defender. A dynamic trust root protection (DRTM) protection system must be installed at the processor level. Said system will allow to detect any type of firmware mani[CENSORED]tion in the same boot. Intel currently offers some processors such as the Core i7-8265U with vPro technology designed for this precept. A technology that is expected to expand to other processors

The most used browser worldwide, Google Chrome, is a powerful tool for moving around the Internet that has been growing a lot over the years. In fact it has a huge market penetration and offers us a good amount of functions and features. Many complain about the high consumption of resources of the equipment that sometimes involves using Chrome, but partly due to all the functionality it presents. To this we must add the fact that every time we install more extensions to the software, and open a greater number of tabs. However, in order to correct or try to avoid some of the problems that we can find in Chrome, we can do it by controlling its operation a little more. To do this we can use a powerful tool that is included in the software itself and that are the time has been improving significantly, we refer to the Task Manager of the browser itself. This is a function that allows us to control many internal aspects of the program, which will help us. So we can control what consumes more resources, the process of each section, the use of GPU, etc. It is true that at first, the information we will see here is somewhat limited, but we can increase it. To start with all this, in principle we will tell you that we can access this functionality that we are talking about from the Chrome menu. Specifically we will achieve it from “More tools / task manager”. It will be then when the window of the function we are talking about will appear on the screen. At first, as we said, the information presented here is limited to just a few fields. These, for example, will help us to know the RAM or CPU consumption of each of the browser's running components. Get the most out of Chrome’s Task Manager Therefore, in case you want to know more information about how Google Chrome is working in these moments, we recommend that you click on any field with the right mouse button. Then a list will appear with all the sections that we can include to see in the Administrator, or to hide them. Here we will see aspects as useful as the CPU usage time, the memory used by JavaScript, the priorities of the loaded processes, the start time of the program, the serious failures that have occurred, or the number of activities in progress . As you can imagine, all this will be useful for us, with a little skill, to optimize Chrome's operation. It is worth mentioning that from here, if necessary, we will also have the opportunity to finish the processes that we see that are consuming more. To do this, just click on the element we want to close, and click on the "End process" button in the lower right corner. All this will allow us to have much more control in terms of the operation of the program and eliminate what we do not need or that is consuming many resources. In addition, if what we need is to know the processes that consume more resources at that time, it is enough that we click on the header of the corresponding field so that the values are placed in ascending order. This will help us to see first hand what more CPU or memory is spending.

Users increasingly demand gaming mice without high-quality cables and features. In addition, wireless technology has evolved considerably in recent years, becoming the same as those with cables. Razer is one of the most innovative brands in this field and has introduced the Viper Ultimate. This mouse is characterized by having Razer HyperSpeed wireless technology. Razer HyperSpeed offers us a connection up to 25% faster compared to any other wireless technology. This technology monitors the frequency channels and uses the one with the least congestion to offer the lowest possible latency. But it also manages to improve autonomy by 25%, getting 70 hours of use in a single charge. Introducing the Razer Viper Ultimate with HyperSpeed technology This mouse uses the Razer Focus + optical sensor that has been developed together with the prestigious PixArt company. This sensor has intelligent functions such as Smart Tracking, Asymmetric Lift-Off and Motion-Sync. It also offers us an accuracy of 99.6%, a resolution of up to 20,000 DPI, recognizes movements of up to 50G and a sampling rate of 650 IPS. This mouse being the one that incorporates the most advanced sensor on the market, according to Razer. Main technologies that this mouse implements Smart Tracking: Automatic calibration on different surfaces that the mouse passes through. It ensures that the take-off distance and accuracy remain consistent and the inconvenience of the necessary manual calibration on other sensors is eliminated. Asymetric Lift-Off: Allows you to previously set the lifting and lowering distances of the mouse to the playing surface for greater accuracy. Motion-Sync: Ensures that the communication of the sensor and the PC is carried out at exact intervals for greater sensor response and precious tracking. Through this intelligent function the system will always receive the exact position of the mouse. Highlight to finish that the Razer Viper Ultimate has optical switches. These switches do not need physical contact for activation and improve response time and durability. The mouse has a weight of 74 grams, has Teflon legs and has 8 programmable buttons. It has RGB LED lighting through Razer Chorme, ambidextrous design and the sale price is 129.99 euros.

If you are one of those who regularly use the Google assistant, there are news about it that you will surely like. These, have to do with the interface shown on the screen of mobile terminals when performing programming actions that will make everything easier and that the challenge of what you do on the smartphone or tablet And, fortunately, it is more than possible that everything you have prepared in the Mountain View company to improve the use of this tool is a reality very soon: it is expected that with the arrival of the new Google Pixel 4 all the news that we talk about and that, evidently, the deployment begins globally so that little by little those who enjoy the service we are talking about can use it. And when will this happen? Well, faster impossible: The news that is prepared in the Google Assistant Well, as we have said, it has to do with the user interface, specifically when a programming action is performed, such as setting a reminder as a reminder or adding an appointment in the calendar. Now, everything will be much more intuitive and, in addition, the dimensions that Google software occupies are reduced on the screen so it takes up less space and it is possible to continue seeing in the background what was being done with the phone or tablet . In this way, only the lower area is occupied by a Google assistant and, apart from the aforementioned, this is positive that all the elements are located in this area, so it is more convenient to access them even with the Use of only one hand. By the way, also with the arrival of the Pixel 4 another novelty will be added in the tool we are talking about, since the quick access bar is completely integrated in the interface -in the lower zone- so the current tape is abandoned ( and, additionally, the logo that shows that voice recognition is activated changes and will now be colored dots). It is expected that, as we have seen thanks to some images that have been published and that come from Google's testers, this new way of working for the company's voice assistant will also reach other usage options. Therefore, it is intended to minimize the user interface clearly and make everything more intuitive and accessible. Undoubtedly, a better important and that will come with the new smartphone of the Mountain View company that is presented today.

Welcome!

Some time ago, before there was the Hyundai N division, there was a recurring joke among car fans, where it was said that the Hyundai Veloster was so slow, that even a van H1 (Starex in Mexico) could overcome it. And it was a bit true. All those who have driven commercial utilities with diesel engines, know that they recover quickly and that they do not have much trouble taking high speeds, at least when they are unloaded. But after the jokes, Hyundai has amended its sports profile with the N division, creating two scary hot hatch such as the i30 N and the Veloster N, but unfortunately for the Veloster, the H1 is again a faster vehicle ... When reality surpasses humor This year, during the famous "April Fools' Day", Hyundai Germany published an animated gif on how an H1 N would be, something totally irrational and fascinating at the same time. And of course, everything was there, waiting for someone to take the challenge. If there is a country crazier than Russia, that country is Australia, who not only seem to have a passion for car racing in the blood, but are also quite executives in carrying out crazy things like these, with a certain degree of professionalism. So Hyundai Australia and the N division made a survey among their followers about which car they would like to see prepared by the sports division of the brand. As you can guess, the winner was H1. This is not the first time we see a brand tune a van. I will remind you that Renault put a Formula One engine on Espace and that Ford also tuned a Transit. But the case of the H1 N is different, because it is the only one of all these experiments that has kept its eight seats in place. That is, it works just like the normal model. The specifications Hands-on, the first thing was to replace the 2.5 CRDi engine, with a V6 3.5 Twin Turbo engine, manufactured from the same V6 3.3 that drives the Kia Stinger and the Genesis G70. This engine develops about 400 HP and 409 lb-ft of torque. Send your power to the rear wheels thanks to an eight-speed automatic transmission and a welded differential. It has electronic damping, sports brakes on the front axle, sports exhaust and 19 "wheels of the I30 N. Inside, the H1 - which in Australia is known as iMAX - has two sports seats upholstered in suede and leather, plus a sports steering wheel, borrowed from the i30 N. On the outside, the look mimics that of N products, including the unmistakable light blue tone, skirts and diffusers with red edges and a grill that proudly looks like an N badge. If you notice the sunroof open on the ceiling, it is because it does not have air conditioning and you should already imagine the heat that must be done there with an engine high power

At the end of September since AMD the delay of the Ryzen 9 3950X and the new generation Threadripper was announced. The first because it would not reach the frequencies announced by AMD and the second because of TSMC's demand. Now the Ryzen Threadripper 3960X processor has been filtered, which will have 24 cores and 48 processing threads. These new AMD processors are based on the Zen2 @ 7nm architecture, as are the Ryzen and EPYC. Castle Peak (codename) will apparently have up to three different chipsets. Only those that have compatibility with the TRX40 chipset could be supported by the current X399 motherboards. Those destined for TRX80 and WRX80 will not have this backward compatibility, according to rumors. It shows the Threadripper 3960X processor Little do we know about the new generation Threadripper. AMD even forgot about them for a while, causing rumors that they would no longer be manufactured. Lisa Su, CEO of AMD came out to report that these processors were going to leave, when he played. Here you have the ones that have leaked to date: null Threadripper 3960X: 24 cores and 48 threads / 250W TDP Threadripper 3970X: 32 cores and 64 threads / 250W TDP Threadripper 3980X: 48 cores and 96 threads / 280W TDP Threadripper 3990X: 64 cores and 128 threads / 280W TDP The base frequency and Boost, the amount of cache and the price have not yet been revealed. AMD has not confirmed the existence of three chipsets, something that is talked about a lot. We prefer to remain cautious and wait. Who does not have much room for maneuver is Intel. The company announced the Core-X a few days ago with a significant price reduction. Specifically these new processors in 14nm will cost half that of the previous generation.

A few days ago the AMD RX 5500 graphics card, a 1080p gaming graphics card, was introduced. This new graphics card based on silicon Navi 14 is intended to replace the RX 5080 based on Polaris 20. The new AMD solution still has no official price but aims to be highly affordable. Now we have known that XFX will launch the RX 5500 THICC II graphics card. The XFX heatsink reminds of the grilles of US vehicles in the 60s and 70s. But this graphics card has a major cooling problem according to GamerNexus. This design seems to have been slightly modified and improved. The backside between the backplate and the frontplate has been modified and improved. The XFX RX 5500 THICC II is shown The graphics card has been filtered by Videocardz, who has obtained the stock images of it. The design is similar to that of the RX 5700 model, with a small modification. We see how this graphics card has an 8-pin PCIe connector. We see how this graphics card will carry two fans on this heatsink. The trim, as well as the fans, are black. Copper heatpipes are visible and the XFX logo on the center of the fans has a coppery touch. The backplate has a design that complements the front and, of course, is also black. AMD has endowed this silicon with 1 408 Stream Processors and a Boost frequency of 1 845MHz. We do not know if this graphics card will have overclocking, something possible since the AMD reference model only has a large central fan. We assume that in the next days or weeks we will see the full specifications as well as its price.

The Redmond-based firm does not stop working on improving its security systems, among which, of course, is Windows Defender. In this way, what is intended is to be able to protect Windows 10 users in the most effective way. In fact with the passage of time, the company itself has been introducing important changes in this section. Thus, this is a security alternative that has become one of the favorites for a growing number of users. In this way it does not stop sending new improvements for its protection software integrated in the operating system, as we constantly check. As proof of all this we will say that Microsoft introduced a tamper protection method in Microsoft Defender ATP earlier this year. With all this, what is achieved is to protect the security program against the changes that malware can make in the most important security features. To say that a limitation is included here in the changes that are not made directly through the application, that is, through malicious software, as we mentioned. Of course, we will say that at first Microsoft made this functionality only available to its Insiders since last 2018. In fact, at the moment it continues testing it so that it can be improved and refined. Avoid altering Windows Defender We tell you all this because from now on, this tamper protection function is starting to reach all Windows 10 users. Of course, we must bear in mind that this new implementation is being carried out gradually, by What we do not have yet, we will receive at any time. This is also something that we can activate or deactivate from the Windows security application depending on our needs. At first the function will be shown in Windows Defender as enabled by default for all home and business users. However, if for whatever reason we do not want it to be operational, we can also do without it. With all this, what is wanted is to avoid unwanted and malicious changes in the security settings of the devices. This is something that certain malicious codes sometimes carry out, which deactivate some Windows Defender functions in order to access the computer and its data. Therefore, we will show you how to access this new function, either to activate or deactivate it. The first thing we do is open the Configuration application through the "Win + I" key combination. In the new window we click on the "Update and security" option, where we opt for "Windows Security". After clicking on the "Open Windows Security" button, we select "Anti-virus and threat protection". Among the options that we find here, we must place ourselves in the so-called "Antivirus configuration and threat protection / Manage configuration". It will be then when on screen we see the controller that will allow us to activate or deactivate the new function “Protection against alterations”.

It is true that Intel has not lived up to market demands in recent years. The company still does not take out 10nm processors and that is costing sales. It is true that AMD has needed to make the leap at 7nm and increase cores to match 14nm processors. It seems that Intel is working to correct these problems and is already thinking about 7nm. It is estimated that Intel 10nm will be equivalent to 5nm, because the density has been improved by 2.7x compared to 14nm. Intel 7nm will be much better than TSMC 5nm or so at least they aspire. intel already works on Xeon Scalable @ 7nm We saw this weekend as Intel suppressed the Omni-Path technology of the Xeon Scalable. These processors will continue to be the cornerstone of the company for the industrial sector. For the next generation they have developed the LGA4677 socket. This socket will replace the LGA3647 and compete against the EPYC processors. A solution that will not reach the market until 2021. The new Xeon Scalable will be based on the company's 7nm EUV node. These will already integrate PCIe 5.0 and will therefore be compatible with Intel CXL, interconnection and scaling technology. These processors will also have DDR5 DIMM support, although the latter has been fully confirmed. During TE Connectivity, an event for the professional sector, the company has also shown a new socket. It is the LGA4189, of which we do not have more data. Possibly a socket for the e normal ’Xeons. The increase in pins for the LGA4677 socket is due to the use of PCIe 5.0 and CLX. It is also increased because the PCIe lines will be significantly expanded and connectivity will be improved. The number of memory channels may also be expanded.

After it became public that the Volkswagen Group was considering putting Lamborghini on sale, the German consortium has announced its position. Senior executives of VW have mentioned that the Italian manufacturer will not cease to be part of the consortium, to which it belongs since 1998, when the German company was under the command of Ferdinand Piëch. Regardless of whether the Volkswagen Group denied the sale of Lamborghini, it is a fact that it would not be logical to transfer to the Sant'Agata Bolognese firm because of the excellent financial moment it is going through. Thanks to the development of Urus, the Italian manufacturer has reached a value of about $ 11,000 million. What is a fact is that even with this figure, the investors of the German conglomerate believe that the best thing for the company is to simplify its structure in which today all kinds of brands are found, from super cars -Lamborghini and Bugatti - even trucks -Scania and MAN, not to mention the motorcycles -Ducati-.

Since McLaren created the Ultimate Vision GT for the renowned game that talks about a possible version for the real world. The idea was reinforced with the new regulation of hypercars for LeMans 2020. And as if that were not enough, the McLaren Speedtail and its hybrid mechanics finished reinforcing the idea of a new extreme racing car of the English brand. McLaren BC-03 on Instagram The confirmation of all these rumors and wishes came from the command of a leak in the Supercarpress network. According to this publication the code name of the hypercar is BC-30, it will be based on the Ultimate Vision GT and very few units will be made to order. At first glance, it loses some radical elements of the virtual model, but it stands out because of the rear end and the immense wing. In addition, the number also refers to the future regulation of the French 24 hours. Hyper power According to speculation, the BC-30 (or whatever it is called when finished) will exceed 1,000 horses using a variation of the mechanics developed for the Speedtail. There is talk of a 4.0L V8 behind the driver's back and two electric motors in the front train.

We are seeing how Intel is modifying its commercial strategy with respect to its processors. The new Core-X will arrive at half the price of its predecessors due to the AMD Threadripper. They have also recently reduced the price of Core-F by up to 25%. Intel's next step will not be to jump at 10nm, it will be to introduce HyperThreading technology into the Core i3 Comet Lake. To date, the company reserved the system of processing threads for some processors. Especially it can be seen in the Core i5 and the Core i9, staying out of the Core i7. It seems that the company wants to bring HyperThreading to the Core i3-10100 and thus boost its sales. Intel will bring HyperThreading to the Core i3 We know this thanks to a filtered benchmark of the Core i3-101000 processor, a natural replacement for the Core i3-9100. To date, the Core i3-9100 had 4 cores and 4 threads. This new Core i3-10100 processor will have 4 cores and 8 threads. It will allow this new processor to obtain between 30-50% more performance and would be equivalent to the Core i7-7700K. The test that has been leaked indicates that this processor works at 3.6GHz, which, if confirmed, would make it an ideal processor for gaming. The Core i3-9100 is around € 100, if it came out at the same price (or even up to 25% more expensive) it would be an excellent processor. In addition, it would not generate a bottleneck with the majority of market graphics. Comet Lake from Intel, as we know, will have a 10-core, 20-wire stop. Possibly this processor will be the most advanced and we will need a refrigerator to cool it. The Core i9-9900K with 8 cores and 16 threads already generate problems for cooling. A 10-core 20-core 10-core Core i9-10900K theoretician will require bestial heatsinks.

The vulnerabilities extend this time to Asus and GIGABYTE, where both companies have already been informed of their vulnerabilities in their lighting control software of both brands respectively. Aura Sync and AORUS Graphics Engine must be patched in up to 4 versions to prevent any attacker from escaping privileges through such control software. Six vulnerabilities and five affected products It has been the SecureAuth company that has made both discoveries and made them known to both companies with enough time for these vulnerabilities to be patched and corrected. In the case of Asus, the communication between the two companies occurred in November 2017, where Asus subsequently recognized the problem. Thus, on March 26 of this year the company launched a new review of Aura Sync informing that the problems were corrected, but it was not until May when SecureAuth checked the improvements, where only one of the three problems was corrected. The case of GIGABYTE is more flagrant, since upon being informed the company's technical support team responded to SecureAuth that GIGABYTE is a hardware company, not being specialized in software. Even so, they requested technical details to verify the vulnerabilities. Shortly afterwards, their response perplexed SecureAuth engineers, since GIGABYTE responded that according to their PM and engineers, their products are not affected by the vulnerabilities described. To put this in perspective, SecureAuth reported that Asus Aura Sync 1.07.22 and earlier versions install two vulnerable drivers, while in the case of GIGABYTE this extends to its Application Center software 1.05.21 and later at the same time as AORUS Graphics Engine (1.33 and later), the XTREME Engine utility (v1.25 and earlier) and OC Guru II (v2 .08). To be specific, in the case of Asus the security errors found correspond to CVE-2018-18537, CVE-2018-18536, CVE-2018-18535, through the GLCKIo and Asusgio drivers. In the case of vulnerability CVE-2018-18537 with a simple proof of concept or PoC a system failure can be achieved, while in the case of CVE-2018-18536 a possibility of reading and writing data from and to IO ports, which could be used by the attacker to execute code with elevated privileges. Vulnerability CVE-2018-18535 also exposes a method of reading and writing but through MSR (specific controls of the CPU architecture with features such as debugging, monitoring or monitoring program execution). That can produce blue screens of death in the worst case. GIGABYTE is not far behind with 3 other vulnerabilities In the case of GIGABYTE the affected drivers are GPCIDrv and GDrv where it was discovered that they can receive system calls from the user's processes without privileges, even with a low level of integrity, so Windows validates them as a trust code. Vulnerability CVE-2018-19320 gives the attacker full control of the system, so it is the most serious of those registered, and can even block the system. The second vulnerability (CVE-2018-19322) allows the attacker to increase his privileges on the system, where at least SecureAuth has managed to restart the affected computer. Finally, the CVE-2018-19323 vulnerability causes BSOD, since the exploit executed filters the pointer of a kernel function and prevents KASLR protection. Neither Asus nor GIGABYTE have reported again if they have finally corrected the vulnerabilities, so yesterday they were published publicly after being notified for more than a year.

Although its sale is only available for the Australian market, it is very worth talking about this limited edition of 500 units of the Ford muscle car: the Mustang R-Spec. Each of the pony cars developed in collaboration with the Herrod Performance tuner, have as a letter of introduction the enormous amount of power and aerodynamic and aesthetic improvement. At first glance, what most attracts the attention of the Ford Mustang R-Spec is the treatment to which the body was subjected by means of a kit consisting of a spoiler, a larger bumper, a redesigned grille and a bonnet with an inlet ventilation. Likewise, this customization includes 19-inch Ford Performance wheels, body length and width graphics, black side mirror housings and darkened rear optical groups. Something that also makes this limited edition unique is the color palette for the exterior is limited to four options - green, orange, silver and blue. Inside, this Ford Mustang R-Spec is distinguished by the new gear lever knob, which by the way is manual, and by the numbered instrument panel badge. Obviously, the best thing about this muscle car is when it comes to driving. Following in the footsteps of the GT500, which is not available in Australia, Herrod Performance adapted to the 5.0-liter V8 engine of a -2.65-liter supercharger, an intercooler and new exhaust system. With these changes, especially the supercharger, the Mustang R-Spec registers a power of 700 hp and a torque of 612 foot-pounds of torque, this is 60 hp and 13 foot-pounds less than the new GT500. While it is less power in the Australian pony car, its great privilege is that it is available with six-speed manual transmission. But in addition to having more power and a greater roar of the exhaust system, all Mustang R-Spec equips as standard the suspension system with adaptive dampers, springs with lower height -20 mm less with respect to the Mustang GT- and stabilizer bars adjustable bigger. In addition, to own one of these Mustang R-Spec you have to pay $ 67,500.

To date, the NVIDIA ‘SUPER’ designation was reserved for GTX 20 Series graphics cards. It seems that the company will finally extend this denomination to the GTX 16 Series. The company's simplest graphics with RT Cores and Tensor Cores will receive at least one version. During the last weeks there has been a lot of talk about a GTX 1660 SUPER, which has just been made official. This new NVIDIA GTX 1660 SUPER graphics card will be the most powerful in the company's mid-range. There will be no reference model, the models customized by the manufacturers will be seen directly. Possibly they come with lower prices even to the model they arrive to replace and combat the AMD RX 5500. NVIDIA GTX 1660 SUPER is confirmed Zotac has been the first of the manufacturers to have these charts ready. The company will have two models, the simple model and an AMP model. This second model, with a better cooling system will have factory overclocking and therefore, better performance. Another of the outstanding novelties of this graphic is that it will not arrive with GDDR5 memories, but will arrive with GDDR6 memories. The change of memories does not seem important, but it gives us extra performance. Obtaining more bandwidth improves the final performance of the graph. The frequencies have not yet been confirmed, which will be revealed shortly before launch or when NVIDIA officially presents them. We see how this graphic has an 8-pin PCIe connector and completely lacks an NVLink port. On its performance, we must expect 10-15% more than the GTX 1660 with a fairly similar consumption. We assume that in the coming days NVIDIA will reveal the launch date and Zotac the market launch price of its two models.

Previously we had already talked about the design that would have the Aston Martin DBS GT created by the Italian manufacturer Zagato, because during the last Goodwood Festival of Speed of 2019 a scale model of this luxurious coupe had been leaked, which unfortunately went unnoticed by most of the media assistants. Three months later, Aston Martin officially presents the last copy to complete the DBZ family, which was created on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the British brand in 2019. The unveiling occurred during the Auditour Newport Concours , an exclusive event held in Rhode Island, United States. The new DBS GT Zagato is based on the recently launched in Mexico Aston Martin DBS Superleggera, which shows us a vision towards the future design language of Gaydon's firm. Of course, it should not be mentioned that this DBS GT Zagato will be an exclusive limited edition, where only 19 lucky ones will have the possibility of acquiring one of the copies, under the modest price of 145 million Mexican pesos. The new DBS GT Zagato is powered by a 5.2-liter Twin Turbo V12, capable of generating 760 horsepower, only here it has been upgraded to 760 HP. Of the exterior details that stand out in this vehicle, is the large grill that consists of 108 individual pieces of diamond-shaped carbon fiber that remain closed while the car is parked, but will open automatically when the engine is started , and thus improve the air flow. Another great detail is the inclusion of badges that are bathed in 18-carat gold, the roof and rear diffuser will also be made of carbon fiber with a glossy finish, while the wheelset will be 20 inches with an exclusive golden design with black that contrast perfectly with “the suit in Supernova Red finish” that you saw this coupe. If you were wondering about the interior we will find seats covered in genuine red leather and gold inserts for dashboard and center console, although if the “bling bling” is not the utyo you can also opt for carbon fiber and aluminum inserts printed on 3D, or even the option to customize your vehicle. "The elegance, class and purity of Aston Martin's style have always been perfectly combined with our own rationalist design language." "The centenary of Zagato represents a bridge between the past and the future, strengthened by the shared vision of an innovative approach to collectibles, recently coupled in pairs and twins with the aim of reaching new standards of exclusivity in the world," Andrea Zagato, executive director of Design House, mentioned during the conference offered during the event.

Manufacturers of custom graphics card models work to offer interesting solutions. There is a lot of offer and everyone is looking to offer something that differentiates them from the competition and invites the user to buy their product. XFX a few weeks ago introduced the RX 5700 XT THICC II. The company has taken another step and presented the XFX RX 5700 XT THICC III Ultra. This new graphics card differs from the previous model in that it has three fans. The THICC II as the name implies, has only two fans, while the THICC III has a third fan. The heatsink block in this graphic is also a bit thicker because the GPU has factory overclocking. XFX introduces the RX 5700 XT THICC III Ultra As with the THICC II, this model is completely without RGB and the aluminum fins cover is completely black. The backplate of this graphics card merges with the front bezel in an elegant way. The back has a rack that reminds us of the most classic American muscle cars. Regarding the characteristics of this graphics card, it will work at a frequency of 1 810MHz. The ‘Game’ mode will be in this case at 1 835MHz and the Boost mode has been taken to 2 025MHz. We talk about an important overclocking, hence the heatsink is bigger and the fan extra. The 8GB GDDR6 of this graphics card continue to operate at 14Gbps. These memories offer us a 256-bit memory interface and a bandwidth of 448GB / s. This THICC III Ultra model has a year of 2.7 PCIe slots (therefore 3 effective PCIe slots). The edge of the backplate and the front bezel has a silver border that is a pass. Two 90mm fans and a 100mm center fan have been integrated. This dissipation system has ZeroDB fan technology, so that the fans do not work if there is no temperature.

Microsoft released its preliminary version Build 18999 (20H1) for its Windows Insider program and whose main novelty is that it allows you to answer calls from any Android phone from the PC (Windows 10). The new feature is called Calls or Calls, and is integrated into Your Phone, the Microsoft application to link the phone with a Windows 10 computer, and keep track of notifications from notifications to photos. The objective is that the user, from his PC, can answer and make calls, as well as reject them with a personalized message or send them to the mailbox, in addition to accessing the call history and transferring them from the computer to the phone. Microsoft indicated that the function will also be implemented in version 19H1 or newer. The new Windows 10 update is expected to arrive in the first half of 2020 for the end user. It is worth mentioning that virtually any Microsoft client can join the Windows Insider program to obtain preliminary builds of Windows 10 and provide comments for improvement.

Before leaving for the Autoshow in Frankfurt, I was confirmed an interview with Stefan Ellrot, Bugatti Development Director, the reason, to talk about the new record just set by the brand. Days before, Bugatti had overcome the barrier of 300 miles per hour (304,773 mph to be precise) or 490,484 km / h in a Chiron Super Sport +, basically it is a Chiron Sport with minor modifications, mainly aerodynamic to reduce drag and so to get those speeds. At the end of the interview, and in a few seconds of informal talk, the dream had been confirmed. I had an appointment to get to know the headquarters, the artisanal manufacturing and if it wasn't already excellent news, drive a Bugatti Chiron Sport. That day I was in Munich, so arriving in Molsheim, France meant a journey of at least 4 hours (would have driven twice as necessary). After a couple of wrong indications by the browser almost at the end, we arrived at the place, 10 am o'clock, as we had agreed, it is not that the emotion overflowed me, but rather it was so that it is not said that Mexicans are unpunctual . When crossing the automated door, an ultramodern building of steel and glass on the right, where each Bugatti is manufactured by hand, and on the left, a completely atypical scene dealing with the offices of a car manufacturer. Old buildings, gardens and downtown the famous classic French style house that we see in all photographs, where Ettore and his family saw his company flourish. In one of the adjoining buildings, where customers customize every detail of their new Bugatti, the pilot Andy Wallace was waiting for me, the speed record driver who commented previously, to explain the Chiron and then accompany me to handle it. The Bugatti Chiron Sport The Chiron debuted in 2016 as the successor of the mythical Veyron, its not easy mission, surpassing its predecessor, whose credentials had come directly from Ferdinand's head, had made him the most powerful, expensive and of course production car; Fast in the world. In 2018, the brand made some improvements in suspension, steering and slightly reduced the weight and the hyper sports car became Chiron Sport. The name of the model is in honor of Louis Alexandre Chiron, Bugatti pilot during the 1920s and 1930s, and who according to the brand has been the best in its history. Nothing can be too beautiful, nothing can be too expensive, that is the motto with which Bugatti develops its products. And when you look closely at a Chiron, you can only accept that they fully comply. For the design of the Chiron, Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic was taken as inspiration, a creation in the 30s of the great Jean, son of Ettore. The shapes are fluid and very harmonious, it is an elegant and well proportioned sports car. Highlights the ellipse-shaped stroke that is born on post A, and begins to descend beyond the door, to return to the base of the dashboard is a hallmark that Bugatti has used throughout its history. This form that is also very noticeable inside the car, and works as a division between passengers can even be seen, in the signature of the founder of the brand. The soft rib born at the top of the grill crosses the awning and is accentuated to become a stylized and huge crossbar that passes over the engine and fades back into the rear wing and is also a clear allusion to the Atlantic that being of aluminum required that large central rib to rivet the body panels, since at the time there was no technology to weld or glue them. For its part, the horseshoe-shaped grill is a reminder of how fanatical the horses were Ettore and is also a symbol present in all the cars of the brand. Finally, the rear part breaks a bit with the rest of the set, it looks more aggressive because it basically consists of giant air vents sectioned by an elongated LED line that goes from side to side. 1,500 horsepower heart Behind the seats is an exotic and powerful six-cylinder engine in W of 8.0 liters of displacement that uses an arrangement of four turbos to deliver a whopping 1,500 hp and 1,180 lb-ft of torque that are managed by a very fast Dual clutch transmission and seven speeds. The traction is on all four wheels. Continuing with the interesting data, the turbos are sequential, that is; that the first two come into action at low speed, while the remaining torque is at the top to guarantee an explosive but very consistent and linear torque delivery throughout the entire speed band. This gigantic propeller needs 10 radiators and its water pump is capable of sending 757 liters of water per minute when working at maximum capacity. Otherworldly benefits According to Bugatti, the Chiron is capable of doing 0 - 100 km / h in 2.4 seconds, 0 - 200 km / h in 6.1 seconds, 0 - 300 km / h in 13.1 seconds and 0 - 400 km / h in 36.2 seconds To finish soon, it is exaggeratedly fast, even when it weighs 1,995 kilos. And obviously with such acceleration capabilities, it should have a brake system that was up to the needs. Which is why the brand's engineers equipped it with a carbon-ceramic brake system with 420 mm discs with 8-piston calipers in front and 400 mm with 6-piston jaws in the back. This system allows you to brake the 100 km / h in just 31.4 meters, the 200 km / h in 114 meters, the 300 km / h in 247 meters and the 400 km / h in 491 meters. Minimalist and luxurious Doors inside, everything is lined in superb quality leather by the way, or it is made of an aluminum that seems to have been sculpted and not machined, there are few decorations and buttons, even at a first impression it might seem austere. But nevertheless; The idea is precisely that it be minimalist and timeless. The forms are dramatic and the interior creates an atmosphere of extravagance that suggests that the idea was to create art or a sculpture, rather than the interior of a car. Even if you don't pay attention to the fact that the four large circular buttons on the board have a center display, or; that the instrument cluster has screens on each side of the speedometer, it might well look like the inside of a 1930s or 1940s car. There is no central screen on the dashboard, these technologies get old quickly and a Bugatti has to remain in force for much longer than a conventional car. Obviously it has a browser, a hi-end audio system, air conditioning, and other amenities that every luxury car should offer. By the way, it is much more spacious and comfortable than you think when talking about very performance sports cars. Handling that never fails to impress After Andy took the Chiron Sport for several minutes to explain general operational details, it was finally my turn to get behind the wheel. It is a combination of emotions, on the one hand; joy, curiosity and enthusiasm, on the other; Respect and fear, and that is to drive a car whose price starts at 2.5 million euros of course intimidating. An oversight, miscalculation or something even out of your control, a flat tire of another car, a dog, could end up in a big money incident. And I think that even pawning my kidneys and corneas could I pay for a Bugatti repair. We start with some low-speed secondary roads, the purr of the engine is quiet, at low speed it does not seem to be the beast that it is, it lets you have conversations without raising your voice, the suspension is relatively smooth, it is not a Rolls Royce Phantom, but it is far from being as fast and hard as that of a Porsche 911 GT3 Turbolag? what is that? The Chiron responds to the slightest hint of the accelerator pedal, there is always torque, and when I say always, it's because true, you can drop the tachometer two thousand turns in seventh and when you press the accelerator, the reaction is instantaneous and forceful. On leaving the highway, we were still in France, that is; It was not the German autobahns with no speed limit and second problem, there was more traffic than convenient to accelerate too much, even so, any space however small it seems is enough for the Chiron to exceed 200 km / h. When accelerating, the roar of the engine becomes present, but it never becomes even annoying, on the contrary, it is addictive and the note is serious. On the other hand, when you stop accelerating there is a sharp sound caused by the relief valves, that symphony that you control when you press and release the accelerator pedal gradually envelops and hypnotizes you. Long live high performance combustion engines like this! When leaving the highway, we returned to a route of secondary roads back and forth, there Andy that dominates the vicinity of the headquarters of Bugatti told me on which roads I could accelerate thoroughly and thus check the brutal accelerations that he is able to achieve the chiron. He lowered the changes so that I only looked at the road and pressed the accelerator, in a dynamic that we made about four or five times, the spaces were small straight lines in which I could verify the bestial power of this hyper sports. The first sensation is very similar to that produced by a Tesla Model P100D, which pushes brutally, but as we go from the first 100 km / h it gradually decays. On the contrary, in the Bugatti Chiron Sport that feeling remains the same regardless of whether it is 100 to 200, 300 km / h or more, it never stops accelerating in such an impressive way that you feel that your stomach stayed several kilometers behind. But even more impressive than the acceleration capacity, it is the mechanical grip that the car has, even lowering at first and stopping at the accelerator, it is not necessary that the traction control is activated, the tires so wide, the efficiency of the permanent AWD and even the mass of the Chiron do the job so well that it puts 1,180 lb of torque with total efficiency on the floor. In the small displays that are at the center of the four circular buttons on the board, the Chiron shows up, the maximum amount of power you have used on that path, below, the maximum speed you have achieved, the next, the rotation speed maximum that the engine has reached and finally, the forces G. In my case, I used 1,366 hp, the maximum speed I achieved was 270 km / h and the maximum speed was 6,596 rpm. I did not have much opportunity to check the curving capacity of the Chiron, in the few that I could take at a more or less representative speed, the direction was very fast and precise and the car enters as if it were on rails, it is incredibly agile considering that Approaches two tons. Finally, the brakes are also impressive, a good braking is enough to fill you with confidence, it would not matter to go to the 420 km / h that the Chiron can go, you know that you will always stop efficiently, again and again.

As we informed you just a few days ago, a problem was detected in Windows 10 related to USB Type-C devices that caused the computer to shut down or go into hibernation in a much slower way than we are used to. In fact, this is something that Microsoft itself admitted claiming it was working on a solution. More specifically, the Redmond-based firm said that simply shutting down a computer with Windows 10 and compatible with USB Type-C devices could extend the shutdown of the device in more than one minute under certain conditions. This came because Windows 10 October 2018 Update does not work well with the software interface of the mentioned connector due to an error in its implementation. This means that if we are turning off the PC and a USB Type-C device is being connected or disconnected, the process could get quite long. It is also true that the error is not a big problem, since the computer and the USB device will continue to function normally after the restart, but it is something that should be corrected. Well, as we know now, the firm has just released a new update for Windows 10 in which Microsoft says that this error has been resolved in the May 2019 Update or 1903 version. Therefore, the company advises the affected users to install this recent version of the system as soon as possible, since it corrects the problem of slow shutdown, although for the moment it has not been confirmed if it also plans to correct this same error in 1809, that is, on Windows 10 October 2018 Update. Thus, what is also achieved is that a greater number of users finally decide to install on their computers the most modern and updated version of the operating system, one of Microsoft's main objectives for a long time. Other fixes included in the new Windows 10 update But this bug that we are referring to has not been the only one that has been solved in the new update, but other elements have been patched. We say this because in the new cumulative update of Windows 10, KB4501375, released for version 1903 of the system, other problems that had not been solved until now have been solved. For example, some users were reporting that some screenshots taken in Windows 10 1903 were somewhat yellowish, and apparently this is an error that came because the F.lux functionality that is running in the background, had some problems with the May 2019 Update, since the color profiles of this feature are not loaded when the system is restarted with the quick start option. In fact this is something that was recognized as an error and users were advised to disable this quick start to avoid faulty screenshots. However, in this recent update, this is a bug that has already been corrected, as is the case with the custom view error in the Event Viewer of the operating system, among others, as a redirection problem between Microsoft Edge and the Internet Explorer 11.

There is a lot of expectation around the new Intel graphics cards. During the IDC 2019 (Intel Developer Conference) held in Tokyo, benchmarks of these graphics have been shown. The table compares the current UHD 620 integrated in the 9th Generation Core with the Iris Plus that are integrated in the Ice Lake. The performance jump between Gen 9.5 (UHD 620) and Gen11 (Iris Plus) is important. Although the performance jump is notorious, it would still be far from the AMD RX Vega integrated in the Ryzen APUs. It is true that Intel graphics have always been characterized for being good for video and nothing else. With these new graphics you can play modestly, but you can. Major performance leap of Intel iGPUs Most games that did not reach 30FPS before in 1080p resolution now pass that frame rate. Who jumps the most is the CS: GO, that if around 45-50FPS would now go to 75-80FPS. And it is that the integrated graphics have always been characterized for being optimal for eSports games, which are quite light graphically. Kenichiro Yasu, Intel Director commented that Gen12 graphics double the performance of Gen11. We talked about a brutal performance jump, since according to the image, for example, the CS: GO could go to 150FPS quietly. Moving any game at 1080p resolution> 60FPS would be a luxury. But of course, for this to happen we must wait for the Intel Tiger Lake that will arrive, possibly, at the end of 2020. Another interesting fact is that the Intel Xe will have support for RayTracing in 2020. AMD currently has no plans to support this technology. Although it is said that the PlayStation 5 and Project Scarlett will allow 4K @ 60FPS gaming with RayTracing, as we have learned, they will be based on an RX 5500.

After the launch of the new 2020 Corvette Stingray Convertible at the Kennedy Space Center, Chevrolet retained people one more time to delight in something as much or more desirable, the new Corvette C8.R competition, the first Chevrolet race car with central engine of the GTLM category. According to the brand of the bowtie, the C8.R and the Corvette Stingray present a comprehensive and obvious technology transfer. "The C8.R is much more than a modified racing version of the Corvette Stingray 2020. It is the culmination of many years of testing and development between GM Design, Propulsion, Engineering and the Corvette Racing Team," said Jim Campbell, vice president of Chevrolet performance and car racing in the United States. "The collaboration between these teams has allowed us to take the performance of these vehicles to the next level, both on the streets and on the track." With tremendous success on the track for the past 20 years; Corvette Racing has helped boost the development, performance and po[CENSORED]rity of Corvette's high-performance cars on racetracks around the world. Since 1999, Corvette Racing has won 107 races, the largest number for any professional sports car team in North America, including 13 team championships and 12 Driver and Manufacturer titles. In 2015, Corvette Racing became the first sports car team in 15 years to win the Triple Crown of endurance races, that is, victories in Rolex 24 in Daytona, 12 Hours of Sebring and 24 Hours of Le Mans, all In the same season. On the models presented, Chevrolet will use two different variants. The C8.R No. 4 is dressed in silver, inspired by the color of some Corvette prototypes such as the Aerovette (1973) or the Stingray Racer (1959), seasoned with some yellow accents. On the other hand, the No. 3 car will feature a traditional yellow color scheme with silver accents that continues the lineage of the successful GTLM racing Corvettes of the last 20 years. The C8.R will make its debut in the Rolex 24 (Daytona) in January 2020. For now, the brand has not declared information about its power or the technological characteristics of the car. But that looks great, there is no doubt.

So far in the market we had the RX 5700 and RX 5700 XT from AMD based on Navi 10. These graphics cards manage to compete with the mid-range NVIDIA graphics and are a good quality solution. The company had plans to expand the Navi range and for now they come true with the RX 5500 and RX 5500M. These new AMD graphics cards based on the RDNA architecture are designed for the input range. The RX 5500 is a very interesting solution for 1080p gaming that stands above the RX 580. We could say that it is the natural successor of the Polaris architecture graphic. The RX 5500M is a graphic for new generation gaming laptops. AMD makes RX 5500 and RX 5500M graphics official According to the performance tests offered by AMD, these new RX 5500 and RX 5500M are located between the GTX 1650 and GTX 1660. We speak of a silicon surface of 158mm² compared to 221mm² of the RX 480 based on Polaris. The RX 5500 in terms of performance is somewhat higher than the RX 580, so it would be its natural replacement. This graphic also has a 30% lower consumption than the RX 480. According to AMD, this new Navi graphic has a TDP of 150W, which is very good. amd rx 5500 benchmark nvidia gtx 1650 - RX 5500: AMD makes official its new graphics card for gaming in 1080p Both the RX 5500 and the RX 5500M have a total of 1 408 Shaders Processors. The desktop variant works at 1 717MHz and arrives in Boost mode at 1 845MHz to offer a total TDP of 150W. While the RX 5500M has a frequency of 1 448MHz and in Boost mode it reaches 1 645MHz for a TDP of 85W. Refrigeration Improvement Perhaps the most interesting element of the RX 5500 is that it has a heatsink with a large central fan. For the images it seems to be a 92mm fan, which should be enough to cool this graph well. Curiously, AMD did not opt for this system for the RX 5700 Series and opted for a blower.
