AMD sets the Radeon AI PRO R9700 32 GB graphics card price between $1,240 and $1,277 after its Computex 2025 debut. Industry sources point to $1,259 as the expected retail cost when the company announces official pricing. The card features the NAVI 48 GPU from AMD's RDNA 4 architecture with double the memory capacity of its gaming counterpart. Professional users gain access to 32 GB of GDDR6 memory compared to 16 GB on the standard RX 9070 XT model. This expanded memory supports larger datasets for rendering workflows, scientific computing and artificial intelligence applications.
Board manufacturers ASRock, ASUS, GIGABYTE, PowerColor, Sapphire, XFX and Yeston will release custom versions when the card launches in July 2025. The...
Nvidia postponed the release of its N1 and N1X processors from early 2026 to the fourth quarter of that year. Engineers discovered hardware problems during validation testing that software fixes could not address. Thermal management and signal integrity fell below company standards during performance evaluations. The chips required physical transistor layout modifications and packaging redesigns to achieve proper cooling and electrical stability. These hardware revisions add months to the development timeline.
The processor project faced earlier setbacks throughout 2025 when validation difficulties first emerged. MediaTek partners with Nvidia on the N1 family development, building on their previous collaboration for the DGX Spark mini...
The MagFlow external battery from Ugreen advances wireless charging technology by supporting the Qi 2.2 standard, marking the first power bank to achieve this certification. This 10,000 mAh device delivers 25 watts of wireless power, substantially exceeding the 15-watt limit established by earlier Qi 2 protocols. Ugreen engineers equipped the unit with an integrated USB-C charging cable, a secondary USB-C port, and a side-mounted display that tracks remaining battery capacity. Magnetic alignment technology ensures optimal positioning for wireless power transfer; however, devices must support Qi 2.2 to access the full 25-watt output, while legacy Qi 2 hardware operates at 15 watts. The company plans to release its third-quarter 2025...
The Trump administration lifted restrictions on NVIDIA's H20 artificial intelligence processors primarily to counter Huawei's expanding influence within Chinese technology markets. AI czar David Sacks disclosed this strategic rationale during a Bloomberg Business interview, explaining that American officials sought to prevent the Chinese telecommunications giant from capturing complete market dominance. The decision reflects broader concerns about Huawei's CloudMatrix rack-scale systems competing directly with NVIDIA products across global markets.
Sacks endorsed NVIDIA chief executive Jensen Huang's argument that restricting American chip exports would accelerate Chinese technological supremacy worldwide. The policy reversal...
Samsung is facing a significant talent exodus as engineers migrate to competitor SK Hynix, driven by cultural and performance challenges. The Korean technology giant struggles with rigid management practices that discourage innovation and risk-taking within its semiconductor divisions. Former employees cite discrimination against foundry workers and excessive focus on financial metrics over engineering excellence. The memory division has fallen behind its rivals, Micron and SK Hynix, in artificial intelligence chip development.
Internal culture problems persist as management demands guarantees of success before approving new projects. Workers report falsified reporting practices and limited promotion opportunities for diverse...
Intel will host its Technology Tour event in Phoenix, marking the company's first major presentation in Arizona.
