Podcast #612 – News Happens! AMD SAM, Corsair 5000D & LIVA Q1D Reviews, Thermaltake Tower, TSMC 3nm, PC Sales! + More!
With no big launches to speak of, there’s a few news items from CES 2021 to talk about plus a few fresh items! Such as how to get AMD SAM working, TSMC baking chips at 3nm, PC Sales are huge, and Intel Rocketlake-S pricing is leaked.
We’ve got the Corsair 5000D airflow and very mini LIVA Q1D reviews to go over. Plus Nvidia releases a new Pascal card (GT 1010) and Samsung has got an updated 870 EVO SSD!
Finally, Jeremy is off on his pub tour for the evening, but we did not panic. Jim graciously stepped back in for the evening show, filling in 4th square.
Josh does the burger thing, and wonders why he does not have a brightly colored microphone.
We would welcome your support of the show, our live performance art if you will. Please consider helping us out over at our Patreon if you are able. You folks help keep this crazy art form alive so thanks!
