People watching graphics card prices in Europe noticed prices going down on three RTX 50 series cards from NVIDIA. A bunch of Europeans emailed VideoCardz about this, making them look into what happened. The Euro has gained strength against the dollar, which fell by about 3.9% based on trends in Germany. NVIDIA waited around two weeks after the exchange rate settled before they cut any prices.
Oddly enough, NVIDIA kept the RTX 5070 Ti at its original German price of €879 plus tax. This card never had a Founders Edition, meaning NVIDIA asked partner companies to make cards that match their suggested price. Someone who talked to VideoCardz said many RTX 50 cards just sit unsold because stores marked up prices way beyond what buyers want...
AMD decided to leave out RDNA 4 graphics from their next Zen 6 "Medusa Point" laptop chips. Developers found proof in GitHub code that RDNA 4 (labeled as "GfxIp12") will only appear in separate graphics cards. The current Radeon RX 9000 cards will be the only products using this latest graphics technology. According to technical papers, AMD plans to stick with RDNA 3.5 graphics past their Zen 5 chips, and might later switch to UDNA for built-in graphics.
The new Medusa Point design puts together a 12-core Zen 6 processor made on TSMC's 3 nanometer process with an input/output chip built on N4P. This marks a big change from how AMD currently builds laptop chips as single pieces. Early rumors hint these processors might come with 3D...
Samsung just released its new 9100 PRO solid-state drives today. These drives use PCIe 5.0 tech to reach speeds up to 14,800/13,400 MB/s for reading/writing—twice as fast as older models. They can handle random read/write speeds of 2,200K/2,600K IOPS. You can buy them in regular or heatsink versions, and for the first time, Samsung offers consumer NVMe drives with 8 TB storage.
The 9100 PRO drives come with Samsung's 5 nm controller, which makes them 49% more power efficient than previous versions. They kept these drives slim at just 0.35 inches thick. If you choose the heatsink model, you'll get better cooling for tough jobs like AI content creation, 8K video editing, or serious gaming.
Right now, you can buy 1 TB, 2 TB, and 4 TB...
G.Skill created a new computer memory called DDR5-6000 CL26. These come as big 96 GB packs with two 48 GB sticks made for AMD AM5 computers. Fast memory like this helps anyone playing games, making videos, or running AI programs.
The company keeps pushing speed limits with these DDR5-6000 CL26 kits that hold 96 GB total. They run at quick CL26-36-36-96 timing, which makes computers respond faster during hard jobs like video work, 3D building, or AI tasks. Tests with ASUS and MSI motherboards paired with AMD's newest chips show they work perfectly together.
G.Skill also improved their smaller 48 GB kits by changing the timing numbers from CL26-39-39-96 to CL26-36-36-96. This upgrade helps these memory sticks run even faster on AMD...
HP recently released a new laptop called the OMEN 16 Slim. At its thinnest point, it measures just 19.9 mm - that's 16% slimmer than the standard OMEN 16. The screen is 16 inches with a 16:10 aspect ratio. You can pick from 1920 x 1200 resolution screens that refresh at 144 Hz or 165 Hz, or go for the sharper 2560 x 1600 screen with an even faster 250 Hz refresh rate.
Processor options start with the Intel Core Ultra 5 225H. Want more power? You can step up to the Core Ultra 7 255H or the top-tier Ultra 9. Memory comes in 16 GB, 24 GB, or 32 GB of DDR5-5600 RAM. Storage options include either 512 GB or 1 TB PCIe Gen 4 SSDs. Right now, the NVIDIA RTX 5070 is the only graphics card HP lists, but they hint that more choices might appear...
