After President Trump and U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent reiterated that Nvidia will be barred from selling its most advanced chips to China, Jensen Huang has now confirmed that there are currently no active discussions on the matter. In fact, Nvidia also requires authorization from China itself before it can sell GPUs to local firms.

AMD's Bulldozer-era FX-9590 CPU from 2013 managed to run Battlefield 6 at over 30 FPS at 1080p resolution, boosting to 40+ FPS at lower resolutions on smaller maps. FX-9590, despite being more than a decade old, does support SecureBoot, which was enough for BF6 launch, confirming TPM is not neccesary.

Rockstar has just announced that perhaps the most highly anticipated game in history has been delayed once again. Originally set to release on May 26, 2026, GTA VI will now hit consoles on November 19, 2026 — marking a six-month delay, similar to initial pushback from Fall 2025.

AMD's rumored upcoming budget CPU, the Ryzen 5 7500X3D, has just been spotted on GeekBench with solid single-core and multi-core results that put it on par with the 7600X3D, while having the same 96 MB of L3 cache. Unfortunately, for value-conscious gamers, the price of DDR5 right now might turn you away from the cheapest X3D chip on the AM5 platform.

You might be able to buy PlayStation games once and own them across PC and PS5 together, similar to Microsoft's Xbox Play Anywhere. A new "Cross-Buy" feature has been datamined inside PlayStation Store, added only a few months ago, hinting that it's been in the works for quite some time and might be releasing soon.

A user on Reddit has shared a collection of customized LGA 1151 motherboards with 36 USB ports stacked atop and next to each other. Even the most overkill models from the factory usually only support up to 20, and they're meant for special applications. A commenter suggests bot farming as the use for this odd motherboard.

The U.S. Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessent has highlighted a potential future where China could get its hands on Nvidia's current-gen flagship AI chips... when they're no longer the current-gen flagships. Washington is considering letting Nvidia sell Blackwell chips to China once they're outdated by at least a year or two.

Users over the weekend reported seeing incorrect end-of-life messages on Windows 10 despite either being enrolled in the ESU program or running Enterprise/LTSC versions of the OS that are automatically set to receive security updates for a few more years. Microsoft has already said this was a bug and pushed a cloud configuration fix.

Despite a trade truce, Trump has just made it clear that Nvidia's flagship AI GPUs from its Blackwell lineup will not be allowed to be sold to China.

On QuasarZone, a South Korean forum, the user described how one ASRock B850 Pro RS killed off three different Ryzen 7 9700X CPUs one by one, despite the motherboard being deemed healthy prior.

PewDiePie has built a custom web UI for self-hosting AI models called "ChatOS." Running open-source models from Baidu and OpenAI, PewDiePie made a "council" of bots that voted on the best responses, and then built "The Swarm" for data collection that will become the foundation of his own model coming next month.

Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, recently posted his Tesla Roadster order being mishandled on X — both of those latter companies are owned by Elon Musk, who replied with a casual "you stole a non-profit" statement. Altman was instrumental in the recent recapitalization of OpenAI into a public benefit corporation, which cemented the for-profit model the firm has adopted.

It's not often we see a graphics card that is almost completely fried across the board. That's what happened with this poor RTX 4090 whose 12V rail leaked into the memory, frying the VRAM and travelling to the core in the process, killing the GPU for good. Not only that, but the card was also comically bent to the point where suggesting someone might've used it as a self-defense weapon wouldn't be far-fetched.

As part of its 2025 Holiday Bundle, Intel is letting you pick between Battlefield 6 and Assassin's Creed Shadows as a free game when you purchase a qualifying Intel CPU or GPU. If you fancy yourself a high-end gaming laptop then you can avail the Platinum offer and get up to three free games.

Rendezvous Robotics' autonomous tile-based modules, built using Project TESSERAE tech, will potentially power Starcloud's plans to build massive data centers in space. The company is partnering with Nvidia to build a 5-gigawatt facility in orbit, and Rendezvous can help make that distant future a reality.
