Graphics cards might face higher prices as new U.S. tariff rules remain unclear. The tech world is watching closely since GPUs and other computer parts could cost more if fresh import taxes hit. For the moment, graphics cards seem to escape the latest round of duties announced recently. However, future decisions about semiconductor taxation could change everything for GPU pricing.
Executive Order 14257 lists certain products that avoid extra import fees. Some semiconductor components like processors see exemptions, but GPU modules remain absent from this protected list. This suggests that graphics cards might still face new tariffs, unlike other chip products. The situation reminds many of 2018 when the government slapped a 25% tax on...
ASUS just added a smart safety feature to their graphics card software. Power Detector+ warns gamers when the power connector might overheat. The system works through special sensors that track how much electricity passes through each pin. Users receive alerts if something looks wrong, giving them time to fix the issue before damage happens. This helps stop pesky melting problems reported with 12V 2x6 connectors.
The new feature appears in GPU Tweak III software for ROG Astral cards. It supports the RTX 5080, 5090, plus the fancy Matrix RTX 4090 models. These high-power cards can pull up to 600 watts through a single pin instead of sharing the load properly. When the system spots trouble, it tells the user to check their connections...
ZeniMax just revealed their plans for Elder Scrolls Online this year. They're moving away from yearly Chapters toward seasonal content releases. The first season brings back the Worm Cult baddies from the original story after ten years. Familiar faces like Razum-dar plus Vanus Galerion return for this adventure. Players can explore Solstice, a tropical island where Argonians share space with High Elves.
The main city, Sunport, houses Corelanya Elves alongside Tideborn Argonians. These groups include outcasts from their races. Players will battle the Worm Cult again but can only access half the island initially. Everyone must join forces during a community event to break through the Writhing Wall built by necromancers. This event starts...
Intel started selling special "IPO-certified" computers in China. These machines run faster than regular PCs with similar parts. The company tweaks several settings to boost performance to about 10% higher than normal builds. Intel Performance Optimizer makes these improvements through firmware updates for Core Ultra 200S processors. These computers come with factory overclocking that normal users might find scary to try themselves.
The speed gains occur through several changes. Intel raises the clock speeds on both performance and efficiency cores. They also dramatically increase power limits from 125W to 280W for sustained loads. Memory speeds jump from 8000 MT/s to 8400 MT/s. Chinese retailers sell these supercharged systems with...
Samsung plans to start making HBM3E memory chips next month but still needs NVIDIA's approval. The Korean company must win this contract to catch up with competitors in high-bandwidth memory tech. With recent positive comments from Jensen Huang about their progress, Samsung feels confident about securing a deal soon.
Micron has already started mass-producing 12-layer HBM3E chips—more advanced than Samsung's 8-layer solution. These memory chips will reportedly power NVIDIA's upcoming "Blackwell Ultra" B300 AI servers. Micron has completely sold out its production capacity for these chips. The company aggressively expands manufacturing lines because it wants to take market share from current leader SK Hynix.

AT&T stores face heat for posting fake reviews without customer permission. Workers at authorized retail locations grab phones from customers to write glowing reviews about themselves. This happened recently when a Seattle store employee used an older woman's phone to praise his customer service. She only discovered the fake post after receiving a notification that the store had responded to "her" review.
The incident mirrors a previous case where another AT&T retailer did the same thing. Many Reddit users claim this practice happens often at AT&T locations across the country. They say employees target senior citizens or less tech-savvy customers who might not notice the privacy breach. The growing scandal raises serious questions...
