Intel has launched its long-awaited new line of power-efficient microprocessors, code-named Penryn, designed to deliver better graphics and application performance as well as virtualization capabilities.
The processors, manufactured using a 45-nanometer process, feature smaller transistors and cut down on electricity leaks, which makes them faster and more power-efficient than earlier 65-nm processors... The most power-hungry Penryn-based systems will consume no more than 120 watts (W).
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
ok whats happened to amd and there Barcelona quad core and why are intel whooping them in quad core chips
and why has ATI fell off is getting whooped by Nvidia
since the AMD, ATI buyout intel and Nvidia have been laying some serious hurt on them
can't wait to see what apple decides to do with these beauties. i might make my parents buy a new desktop soon.
Godfather, i agree. i used to love AMD chips back in the day when they made the FX series. then they seemed to stop innovating and fell behind to Intel's Core Duo series. and i don't see any benefit from AMD's acquisition of ATI. both have severely slumped after that deal went through.
wasn't there a rumor a while back about AMD trying to make a unified CPU/GPU combo?
Has the plans of the combined CPU/GPU on their website (not as much plans as it is a generic power point of what they hope to accomplish in the future). Phenom is comming end of the month, and the new 3870's are due end of the week... From what im seeing on the bench marks, the 3870 falls just short (and sometimes surpasses) the 8800gt. After all, thats what the 8800gt was designed to battle. The thing is, ATI made enough of them so the prices wont be raised because of demand like the 8800gt, keeping the new 3870 under 250 seems possible and very probable, making it the best bang for buck. I want to see what the Phenom delivers in real world testing.
i wonder if this is going to be used for the new xbox coming out in 2009-2010?
well i guess that is good, not really sure what that will do besides make computers more efficent, then would that mean they could put more ram or computing in it then?? its good for power efficienty but is there more to that?? just want to know
