Intel makes most money in its chip factory business from an older manufacturing process. The company calls this older system Intel 7. These factories build processors for laptop computers, desktop computers, and servers running websites. The chip company sells these parts to itself rather than to outside customers. Intel earned $4.7 billion from making chips during the first three months of 2025.
The foundry business lost $2.3 billion during this time because Intel spent heavily on newer technology called 18A. This advanced system costs lots of money before it makes chips that sell. Intel keeps making older Raptor Lake chips because people want them. Computer makers order large numbers of these 13th and 14th-generation processors. The...
Kingston revealed prices for its new computer storage drives this month. The Fury Renegade G5 drives cost more than similar products from other companies. Kingston uses a Silicon Motion SM2508 controller chip rather than the popular Phison E26 found in most fast drives. These storage devices plug into modern motherboards through PCIe 5.0 slots. The controller handles data movement between the computer system and storage chips.
The smallest 1 TB model costs about $204 in America or £182 with tax in Britain. Shoppers can find a similar Crucial T705 drive for just $160 or a Samsung 9100 Pro for $200. The Kingston drive offers little speed advantage despite higher prices. The mid-size 2 TB version costs $330 in the US or nearly £296 across...
JAPANNEXT just put out a tall monitor for people who need more screen space. The new screen gives almost three times the area of regular HD displays. Computer workers who write code or make spreadsheets can see more without moving the page up and down. A small camera with a microphone pulls out from the top part when needed. Users can plug in with HDMI, DisplayPort, or USB Type-C, which also charges laptops with 65 watts of power.
The screen shows colors very well, with almost complete coverage of important color ranges. People can see the display clearly from wide angles up to 178 degrees. The brightness reaches 300 units, which works well in most rooms. Users can connect two computers at once and share one keyboard and mouse between...
Ocypus released a new computer case called Gamma C72. This case lets people see inside better because it lacks support columns. The top part has small holes that help air move through. Users can put different parts inside, such as water cooling systems or fans. The design makes everything easier to view from all sides.
Air flows well inside the case thanks to special holes cut into the metal. People can put radiators as large as 360 millimeters on top. The case holds up to ten fans in different places inside. With this airflow design, hot-running computers stay cooler. Even powerful systems run better with enough cool air moving inside.
Computer builders can fit large parts inside this case. Graphics cards up to 425 millimeters long...
LG Display earned money during the early 2025 despite the slow sales season. The company made about 6 trillion Korean won between January through March. They saw higher sales than last year but lower than the previous three months. Their profit reached nearly 34 billion won, much better than the 469 billion won loss from early 2024.
OLED screens helped drive more sales this year. These special displays went into TVs, computers, phones, tablets, cars, monitors, and laptops. The company said OLED products made up 55 percent of all money earned, an eight percent jump from the same time last year. LG Display cut costs deeply, which helped it stay profitable for two quarters straight.
TV panels brought in 22 percent of the cash during the...
MSI Japan will sell a special computer part next month that puts all the connectors behind the board instead of on top. The PRO Z890-S WiFi Project Zero motherboard costs about 43000 yen with taxes added. This white-silver board works with Intel chips through a special power system that helps run the processor. Computer builders can add up to four memory sticks for a total of 256 gigabytes running at very fast speeds.
People can attach storage drives using four regular SATA ports, three fast M.2 slots for newer drives. The board has spaces for graphics cards and other expansion cards to add features. Users can connect to the internet through very fast WiFi 7 wireless or a wired network port that transfers data at 2.5 gigabits per...
SK hynix brought their newest computer memory products to a tech show in California last week. They showed off advanced HBM4 chips that process data super fast. These speedy memory parts help run artificial intelligence systems better. The company became the first to make test samples of HBM4 for major customers earlier this year. They plan to start making lots of these chips later in 2025. Visitors saw both 12-layer HBM4 models that handle over 2 trillion bytes each second.
The display also featured NVIDIA's latest B100 chip with 8-layer memory from SK Hynix attached. People at the show checked out 3D models showing how the tiny parts connect inside these advanced memory chips. The company brought server memory modules that help data...
Remedy Entertainment shared news about their game FBC Firebreak during a live show for fans. The company plans to release this three-player team shooter on June 17 next year. Players will enter the strange world from Control, where they must work together against threats. This marks the first time Remedy sells a game without help from other publishers. Gamers can play it on computers through Steam or Epic Games Store or on newer PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X/S systems.
The standard version costs about forty dollars in America or thirty-three pounds in Britain. When it launches, Microsoft Game Pass members on PC or Xbox can play at no extra cost. PlayStation Plus Extra or Premium subscribers also receive access through their membership...
Phanteks just released a new liquid CPU cooler called the Glacier One D30 X2. This cooler helps keep computers running cool when they work hard. It is part of the NEXLINQ product family. Gamers, computer builders, and people who make videos or art can use it. The company makes it in two sizes: 360 mm and 420 mm.
The D30 fans connect together into one frame, which means fewer cables clutter the inside of the computer case. Users need just one wire for lights and fan control. A copper base sits against the CPU to pull heat away fast. The cooler fits many different computer builds without blocking other parts. Its pump cover looks sleek with brushed aluminum and has a small fan that cools nearby memory chips and storage drives.
