Don't worry guys, I'm downloading a better processor.

"They can resynthesize things that already exist but they can't make it themselves" this is one of the best, simplest ways i've heard to describe this...stuff that's getting thrown around. I'm glad LLMs can't replace Reece and that he continues to give us precious deals.

Fresh out of surgery and in Post-op recovery with a UFD video waiting? Best day wver

I think AI could be a cool addition to game with something like an NPC. Imagine being able to use a microphone in a single player game and interact with them in a realistic way instead of only things that are scripted.

Should've called it the HALO Lake

[Randomness]

Ngl I'd probably trust an AI to develop, maintain, and balance Overwatch more than the current team

AMD released Zen 5 for the 5th time at this point. I guess thats what the 5 stands for

[BirthrightGaming]

DOOM is forever, and will outlast our humble civilization

[DomikDomik]

It seems that AMD wanted to take advantage of Intel's problems so much that they released their processors prematurely and now they are doing what they would do in the final phase before the premiere.

The Zen 5 rough launch feels like somebody tried to rush it out to distance away from the Arrow Lake launch. It's almost they know they lost this year.

[GonnerMeLeggies]

To be fair Doom has always felt like a hallucination...

[Sethsimracing]

Since I've started learning programming, and I plan on getting a degree in Computer Science next year, the AI-halucinated Doom is just a _tad_ worrying.

Sitting here in a house with no power since Tuesday after being hit by a tornado....Reese i feel your pain

[ToshiOhMy]

I do understand the guy's surprise/reaction to prices. International shopping might get really chaotic really fast.
The Lenovo Legion Go is the example that comes to mind, internationally you can get it at 499~699usd; then to get it in Brazil you need to spend 6000~8000brl.
You know, classic free market BS.

While the power of the iGPU in "halo" APUs is certainly appreciated (assuming it is true), that isn't the most exciting thing about them. Bringing 256-bit memory bandwidth to consumer-grade mobile is the exciting, forward-looking feature that makes Strix Halo really stand out. *That* is the key innovation. Memory bandwidth has been a huge bottleneck for iGPUs from the very beginning and, especially given that most laptops already have soldered-in RAM that could (in theory) be routed like dGPU RAM, the move to 256-bit busses has been a long time coming. A frustratingly long time, really. If Intel isn't matching that, then they simply do not get it.

[AlexSterk]

as much as I love the extra deals, sadly they are almost only for US residents. Canucks need savings too!

1:00 regarding this story, "number goes down, performance goes up"

[CriticalDameage]

That Logitech mic in Reese's bonus deals is an incredible mic and happens to be my daily driver. 10/10 would recommend

I’ve tested 24H2 on the 5800X, 5600X, 5800x3d, and 7800x3d. The X3D chips had higher uplift than the others, but there was increased fps on all the Ryzen CPU’s (from 6 to 11%). Still more Ryzen CPU’s to test (3600x, 3900x). GPU’s utilized were 7900XTX, 4090, 3080, 6700xt

I can see the possibility now. AI creates its own game and have a scenario like this:
Gamer 1: Man, I can't get past this level. So many ridiculously hard monsters.
Gamer 2: What are you talking about? I spawned in to have the exit right in front of me.
