The HDMI Forum has released new cable standards that deliver much faster data speeds. HDMI 2.2 Ultra96 cables can move information at 96 gigabits per second. This speed beats DisplayPort 2.1 cables that reach only 80 gigabits per second. The previous HDMI 2.1 standard moved data at 48 gigabits per second. These new cables double that performance level.
Higher speeds allow displays to show extremely sharp pictures at very fast refresh rates. The cables can handle 4K video at 480 frames per second with almost no compression. They also support 8K video at 240 frames per second and 10K video at 120 frames per second. Some setups can even display 16K video at 60 frames per second. Most people will not need such advanced capabilities right...
Apple may team up with Formula One racing to put special cameras inside race cars. The tech company wants to use its camera lenses to record better video from cockpits during races. Millions of people watch these races on television around the world. Current cameras show blurry pictures that disappoint viewers. Apple believes its technology can fix this problem.

Engineers made the equipment strong enough to handle the shaking and bumping that happens in fast race cars. The device runs special software that Apple created just for racing. A tablet computer controls the camera from far away...
NVIDIA has eliminated most negative factors that worried investors. Hedge fund managers from Boston wonder what prevents the stock from rising sharply. Loop Capital analyst Ananda Baruah set a new high price target of $250 per share. This target suggests the company could reach a $6 trillion market value.
Baruah points to strong financial projections to support his prediction. Supply chain analyst John Donovan expects GPU spending to hit $2 trillion by 2028. Graphics cards would represent 50 to 60 percent of total computing power compared to just 15 percent today. NVIDIA stated it can see tens of gigawatts worth of artificial intelligence projects ahead.
The company earns between $40 billion and $50 billion for each gigawatt of new AI...

GSC Game World released patch 1.5 for STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl. The update fixes major problems with the A-Life system that players noticed when the game launched last November. The developer made characters act more realistically across the entire game world. Players can meet the same stalkers again after time passes. The Zone feels more alive with characters resting and talking at different spots.
The patch stops enemies from appearing right where players just cleared them out. Mutants will not return to their lairs moments after players defeat them. Characters spawn much farther from players instead of at the edge of what they can see. The game shows characters from greater distances with proper animations and weapons. This...
