Alleged Intel Core I9 12900K Cpu Details Leak Features 16 Cores 24 Threads Layout 5 3Ghz Boost

Like the 14-cores, 20-thread CPU, the alleged Core i9-12900K seemingly follows the uneven core and thread count; it seems to feature 16-cores, but only has 24-threads to help with its multi-threading performance. As to why this is the case, sources suggest that this is due to the processor using a hybrid architecture comprising eight Golden Cove cores, eight Golden Cove threads, and eight Gracemont cores. Add them up, and the thread count actually makes sense, on account that the Gracemont cores themselves lack any form of Hyperthreading....

Alleged Nvidia Geforce Rtx 2060 Official Graphics Card Logo Leaks

The leak—which came from HardwareLuxx’s Andreas Schilling—shows the alleged official logo of the RTX 2060, which apparently was obtained from Nvidia’s internally circulated marketing material. Unsurprisingly, the leaked logo of the RTX 2060 looks very similar to the logo of Nvidia’s other RTX graphics cards. — Andreas Schilling (@aschilling) December 16, 2018 What is surprising, however, is the fact that the 2060 is branded under the RTX series. This, of course, give the indication that it may come with “RT Cores” which—for those who are unaware—means that the graphics card has Ray Tracing capabilities....

Amd Ryzen 7 5800X Review The New Halfway Point For Zen 3

On the off-chance that you do manage to find yourself say, a Ryzen 7 5800X and not one of the enthusiast-level Ryzen 9 5900X or 5950X, I may be able to provide a few reasons as to why this CPU is well worth the consideration. Specifications As the dividing line between mid-range Ryzen 5 and the enthusiast-level Ryzen 9, the 5800X is essentially the “step above” that are comfortable with no more than eight cores but at the same time, are seeking out a little beefier than what the Ryzen 5 5600X offers....

It may not look like the concept illustration above either. It’s an interesting partnership, to say the least. Valve launched its own Index VR headset earlier in May. Perhaps Apple takes that as an indication that the company that runs Steam knows a thing or two about making headsets....

Apple Reportedly Leaks Details About Massive Ipad Iphone Upgrades

The leak was first picked up by the Apple-centric site, 9to5Mac, who was supposedly digging through the source code of Apple’s iOS 15.5 beta release. Supposedly, the code makes references to “enhanced Focus and News functionality” for a device with newer software, as well as the possibility of exclusive upgrades for devices no longer fully supported on older devices.

Apple Takes Down Rewound From App Store

Rewound developer Louis Anslow stated in a blogpost on Medium that the company took down the app because it plagiarised the iPod’s design, charged for Apple Music features, and was impersonating an official Apple product. Anslow disputed against the claims by justifying that Rewound had a basic interface that looked nothing like an Apple app. Instead, the iPod skin that complements the app’s clickwheel function was a free downloadable content, and not Rewound’s default appearance or was pre-installed with it....
