Like its 2016 predecessor, the rebranded Radeon 600 series GPUs are based on the same 14nm Polaris GPU architecture, as well as AMD’s already archaic Graphics Core Next (GCN) microarchitecture. Moreover, the specifications of each graphics card are virtually identical to their 500 series counterparts, including the amount of graphics memory and their respective clockspeeds. In terms of models, the Radeon 600 series comprises the Radeon RX 640, Radeon 630, Radeon 625, Radeon 620, and the Radeon 610....

In terms of specification, the 5800X3D is virtually a mirror image of the original Ryzen 7 5800X, with the primary distinction between the two being the addition of the 64MB of V-Cache underneath the hood. Besides that, we’re looking at a lower base and boost clock of 3.4GHz and 4.5GHz, the same 8-cores, 16-threads layout, and the same 105W TDP. The good news with this CPU is that it will fit right into existing AM4 motherboards, so if you’re itching to trade up from a Zen 2-based Ryzen 3000 series CPU on your X570 motherboard, you’ll just need to make sure that the BIOS for the latter is up to date before making the switch....

Equipped with a VA panel that has a native resolution of 5120 x 1440 and a 32:9 aspect ratio, the experience of using the 1800R curved display is akin to having two 27-inch 2560 x 1440 monitors side-by-side. The AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and DisplayHDR 400-certified monitor also offers DCI-P3 and sRGB colour gamut coverage of 93% and 121%, respectively. As you may expect from a gaming monitor these days, the AG493UCX offers a fast refresh rate of 120Hz as well as 1ms of response time....

First among them is the always-on Retina display. This allows the time and other important information to always be visible. The new Apple Watch also comes with a number of display tech that allows it to switch from 60Hz, all the way down to 1Hz. This allows it to maintain its 18-hour battery life. The new Apple Watch Series 5 also features more navigation tools, including the built-in compass. This shows not only your heading, but also elevation, latitude and longitude....

The fruit company describes the use of a combination of haptic motors and electrostatic charges to provide feedback when typing. This will then allow each key on the keyboard to emit its own charge. It is also mentioned that the charge would get stronger towards the edge of the feedback mechanism. As for the mechanical feeling, the patent explains that your fingers will conduct the charges of each key. This lets the keys attract and repel your fingers as you type....

According to Bloomberg, the proposed legislation won’t stop Apple from pre-installing apps in the first place. But in addition to at least enabling their removal, it will ban platforms from changing default settings that steer users to products offered by the platform. “You can’t make it impossible for people to use other services that are the same. You can’t exclude other people so you only are left that one,” said David Cicilline, a US lawmaker who is eager to see more regulation of big tech companies....

As the Wall Street Journal reports, Greg Joswiak, senior VP of Worldwide Marketing at Apple, has confirmed that the company will indeed comply with the EU ruling which requires USB-C. Though there is a tone that indicates an unwilling and begrudging decision, answering with “obviously, we’ll have to comply”. Kuo previosuly predicted that Apple will start rolling out iPhones with USB-C ports as soon as next year. That being said, the EU regulation only makes it so that phones released in 2024 onward will need the port....

Apple has just released the iOS 15.3, iPadOS 15.3 and macOS Monterey 12.2 updates, which contains the fix for the Safari issue. They are all listed as bug fix updates, and one of the more prominent bugs getting fixed is the aforementioned Safari bug. If you need a refresher, the Safari bug in question involves the implementation of the IndexedDB on the browser. The bug makes it so that if you have multiple tabs open at a time, it allows websites to collect data from any of the open tabs....

Despite the target market, the new gaming Mac apparently will carry a price tag of up to USD 5,000 (~RM 20,463) which squarely positioned the rumoured machine as a very high-end gaming product. Not only that, the report also pointed out that the machine could either be in the form of an MacBook or iMac. While it is something of a general stereotype that consumers don’t buy Mac for gaming, Apple has actually intensified its gaming effort in 2019 by launching Apple Arcade back in September....

First reported by iGeneration, the information was then backed up by MacRumors by an internal Apple document that the site has acquired from several reliable sources. While the site didn’t publicly publish the full document, it has provided quite a number of useful information regarding the new policy. For example, Genius Bar and ASSP are now permitted to replace a third-party battery with an official Apple battery for the standard fee....

The subpoena, which was filed back in November 2020, demanded that Valve hand over a massive amount of data of the company’s Steam sales and operations that span several years. Now, there are some among you who are probably asking why Apple is bringing Valve into the dispute, especially since the Bellevue company has nothing to do with it. Well, according to the subpoena, Apple’s lawyers argue that Valve’s documents would bring some relevancy to its case, in the context of Steam being the “dominant digital game distributor on the PC Platform”, as well as being a direct competitor to Epic Games....

In the second version of the iOS and iPadOS 15 beta versions, developers were allowed access to the extra RAM via an entitlement code. This will allow the app to tell the operating system that it can work better with the extra resource. Granted, the caveat here is that the app must still be able to work properly without it. After all, having that much RAM is still a luxury exclusive to newer devices....

The information was discovered by local tipster Kevin Ng TK (@KevinNgTK) and according to him, SIRIM has reportedly certified four Apple Watch devices equipped with LTE capabilities.

However, that doesn’t mean that we’ll be seeing a large number of brand new DB5 cars cruising around the streets. The car’s brief comeback is part of Aston Martin’s “Continuation” project that aims to reproduce a limited number of highly in-demand legacy cars. Others included in this project are the DB4 and DB4 GT Zagato models. The DB5’s reproduction was initially announced a couple of years back, with plans to only build 28 units of the car....

In a lot of ways, it is similar to the targeted advertisement that you may encounter on social media platforms. In an announcement last week, Astro noted that the implementation is taking place in stages starting this month. Here is what it looks like in action: While it was only last week that the company organized a trade event for the advertising and marketing industry to talk about it extensively, Astro has been dabbling with the technology for quite some time....

The rollout for Ulti Box came just a week after the BBC Player was added to Astro Ultra Box. The 4K TV box itself also just received the three other streaming apps back in September. Naturally, access to these apps depends on the Astro pack that you have subscribed to.

What sets the Edition 30 apart from the other ZenBook models is its design. Instead of an all-metal motif, the Edition 30 showcases a pearl white leather cover, attached to the back of the notebook’s display. To add to its opulence, the leather is also embossed with a specially designed 30th anniversary, 18 karat rose gold-plated emblem. Besides the aesthetics, the ZenBook Edition 30’s hardware is nearly identical to the ZenBook 13....
