Bangladesh exited the Asia Cup Super Fours stage after Pakistan defeated them by 11 runs Thursday. The Tigers struggled with opening partnerships, middle-order collapses and fielding errors throughout the tournament. Coach Phil Simmons highlighted few positives despite the disappointing campaign. The team managed 27 sixes across all matches but lacked consistency.
Saif Hassan emerged as the tournament's standout performer for Bangladesh. The opener scored 178 runs across four innings with a strike rate of 128.05. Hassan hit 12 of the team's 27 sixes and registered two half-centuries. His aggressive batting style provided hope for future campaigns.
Mustafizur Rahman anchored the bowling attack with nine wickets at 19.00 average. The...
A consortium of investors has entered advanced negotiations to acquire Electronic Arts for approximately $50 billion, according to multiple financial publications. The deal would transform the gaming giant from a publicly traded company into a private entity.
The investor group features the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia, which already holds a 10 percent stake in EA. Private equity firm Silver Lake and investment company Affinity Partners have joined the discussions. Sources indicate an announcement could emerge within the next week.
The transaction would rank as the gaming industry's second-largest acquisition, trailing Microsoft's $68.7 billion purchase of Activision Blizzard. EA controls popular franchises such as Madden...
ASUS confirmed plans to distribute firmware fixes for gaming laptops experiencing performance disruptions. The company will release beta updates next week for 2023 Strix SCAR 15 and Zephyrus M16 models. GitHub researcher Zephkek identified the source as flawed laptop firmware rather than hardware defects. Windows ACPI.sys received inefficient code that created latency spikes every 30-60 seconds.
The problematic firmware executed poorly designed routines that repeatedly attempted to power graphics cards on and off inappropriately. High-priority interrupts generated regular stutters, freezes and audio crackling during gaming sessions. ASUS stated the beta testing will not void manufacturer warranties for affected users. Additional laptop...
Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor brings UFS 4.1 storage support to Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S26 smartphones. The advanced storage technology delivers faster boot times and improved cache management compared to current UFS 4.0 systems. Micron developed the UFS 4.1 standard earlier this year and maintains its partnership with Samsung for memory components. Enhanced storage capabilities help mobile devices handle demanding artificial intelligence applications more efficiently.
Samsung plans to announce its Exynos 2600 chipset later this year for flagship devices. The company has not confirmed whether its first 2-nanometer processor supports UFS 4.1 technology. Previous Galaxy S25 models shipped with slower UFS 3.1 storage on...
The Trump administration evaluates new tariff policies targeting foreign electronic products based on semiconductor content value. Commerce Department officials would calculate fees equal to chip component percentages within imported devices. Personal computers, graphics cards and processors face potential price increases under the proposed framework.
Companies using overseas manufacturing facilities like Taiwan Semiconductor could see their products affected by these trade measures. NVIDIA graphics cards and AMD processors rely heavily on Taiwanese production facilities for chip manufacturing. The administration aims to encourage domestic semiconductor production through these economic pressures.
Tariff rates may reach 100 percent...
Invercity Game Works announced Project Retrograde: The Becoming, a survival action title for multiple gaming platforms. The Chinese studio released promotional footage through IGN's YouTube channel showcasing gameplay elements that draw heavy inspiration from Capcom's Resident Evil series. Players will experience the game on personal computers, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S|X consoles.

Gamers control a bounty hunter who shares a symbiotic relationship with the organism and must harness its deadly abilities to prevent global destruction. The infected protagonist gains powers to absorb fighting techniques from other hosts...
AMD engineers developed technology that doubles memory performance through module modifications rather than silicon advances. The company's high-bandwidth DIMM patent transforms standard DDR5 speeds from 6.4 gigabits per second to 12.8 gigabits per second per pin. Register clock drivers and data buffer chips combine two regular-speed memory streams into one accelerated pathway. This approach targets artificial intelligence applications and other data-intensive computing tasks.
The technology works especially well with accelerated processing units that handle graphics and general computing functions. AMD plans dual memory configurations using standard DDR5 modules alongside high-bandwidth versions for different workload requirements...
