Podcast #713 – AM4 still king, Nvidia fixes CPU usage, Intel fixes high power draw, Radeon price cut, 24GB DIMM issue, FSR 3.0 is coming, More RTX 3060’s! +++
Talking about System Shock was probably the highlight, but if you’re interested in other topics … well you can stay too.
Not a heavy news week, but still much fun to be had! But … this makes for a 45 minute show after the fluff was removed (and if you like all the fun+ fluff, visit patreon.com/pcper !) Quick take: there’s a Radeon pricing adjustment, AGESA 24GB support issues, Nvidia hot fixes for CPU usage, more RTX 3060’s are probably on the way, TPM 2.0 is probably terrible, Microsoft says enjoy Windows 11 as it looks and AMD might preview FSR 3.0 plus so much more!
Plus we have some fine sponsors this week! Head over and check them out.
As always, we want to extend a big thank you to our all Patreon members. New folks and current ones that are bumping their patronage are greatly appreciated.
This show cannot go on without you – you know who you are, please consider helping our efforts. It most definitely helps keep us on the air. And helps Josh buy burgers. Thank you!
