NVIDIA GPU Screw Up Missing ROPs but Price Still Sky High
A German store started selling those defective NVIDIA graphics cards everyone talked about months ago. These cards have fewer Render Output Units than they should. We first learned about these broken RTX 5090, 5080, and 5070 Ti cards back in February. Tests showed they run up to 11% slower in some games because they lack the correct number of processing units. NVIDIA admitted the problem existed but claimed it affected very few cards—just half a percent of all they made. They told stores to replace these cards for customers. Many broken cards went back to manufacturers, but apparently not all of them. Some stores kept these cards and decided to sell them again as B-stock, which usually means slightly damaged or returned items. One...
Intel Dumps NAND Junk SK Hynix Snags Tech Jackpot
Intel just finished selling its NAND flash memory business to SK Hynix for $8.85 billion. This deal started back in 2020 and happened in two parts. During the first part, SK Hynix paid $6.61 billion to buy Intel's SSD division plus a factory in Dalian, China. They renamed that factory Solidigm after taking it over. But this only included buildings and equipment – not the brainpower behind everything. The second part wrapped up Tuesday when SK Hynix paid another $1.9 billion. This payment gave them full rights to all the special NAND technology Intel created, plus the research teams and technical experts who developed it. Between these two stages, Intel kept control of these important assets, which made it hard to combine the Solidigm...
