HW News - PlayStation 5 Thermals, GPU VRAM Malware, AMD 5995WX CPU Leak, Dead 3090s

This week: EVGA provides details on the 3090s bricked by New World, the Threadripper 5995WX appears, we talk PlayStation 5 thermals briefly, and more. Melvin: One positive side of Nvidia policy to only really support their own proprietary CUDA and not OpenCL is that the proof of concept of the new exploit won't work on Nvidia GPUs.
Nvidia only support OpenCL 1.2 (despite being part of the Khronos group which develops OpenCL and OpenCL 2.0 being 8 years old!).
However porting OpenCL code to CUDA shouldn't really be difficult.
So anyone who bought the code and even has a small amount of coding experience shouldn't really have any problems making it work with CUDA. Only script kiddies will have a hard time.

So, for starters, I'm definitely interested to see a full-length procedural video on PC cases and all that.
On additional ideas, I'm not sure. I get hung up on notions like carbon footprints of the separate industries/businesses involved in the process, as I feel on company a couple stages past raw material procurement isn't the singular metric we should be concerning ourselves with. Additionally, a general piece on e-waste would be fantastic. I don't think we really put the concept through it's paces, in application to average consumer life; tackling the scope and scale of that, _may_ require some additional help, though. Certainly, I don't want to see you guys continue to labor so hard and long on projects that bad food is your only option for sustenance.

Sadness. After watching for years, I finally got a desk mat. Then, 2 weeks later, there is a signed version. :(
Anyway, as for the tours. I'm not sure if possible labor violations is in the scope of something you could highlight, but that has always been a topic I've been interested in.
Sourced components (like the PSU capacitors highlighted by Patrick Stone) would be interesting to see. Like, does the factory have a specific capacitor they buy in bulk and swap to the next best deal when those run out? Is that kosher? Standard practice? Who knows?
And yeah, as many have stated, recycling and waste are great things we'd like to know about.

Very excited about the documentary. My personal request: I care not only about the how but also about the where . I'd love to see footage and discussion of the national and socio-cultural contexts in which these parts are made. The cheap stuff made in China meme is so very tired at this point. People need to know that China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea, and other Asian countries are making everything from the high end to the low end. And there are real people working these factories, from line workers to extremely well-educated engineers and designers.

Here's my issue regarding the EVGA 3090 cards- There's no official statement from EVGA on their website or forums. There's no information regarding what SKU's or serial numbers were part of that batch. There's no mention of notices going to owners who are affected by this. So what are card owners supposed to do? Not play any new games or just wait until their card pops at some point to RMA it? The card has a defect and anyone with those cards should be able to get a replacement before the card breaks.

Well, looks like it's time to buy my wife and 6 year old daughter a couple of mouse mats. Though part will be to know which will want the red and which will need the full desk. Better be sure get them one of each so they don't fight
Also, waste management feels like an absolutely necessary thing to do. E-waste probably goes a lot deeper than dropping off old gear at the correct locations and it's something we should all be aware of. More right to repair fuel maybe?

I'd really like to see you guys get mid to high-end pre-builts. Like 2300-3k. That's the area that most people are going to spend money on average. I'd really like you guys to go over performance Ram from OEM vs. Aftermarket. they look the same but the timings are different but they perform relatively close to the same . Doesn't make any sense to me

Has Stone done signing in the past? Not that I don't love the whole team, but his work on the exploding PSUs (and presumably the rest of the non-exploding PSUs yet to be released) as well as the old NZXT class C fire were particularly good. Also I believe we share an alma mater.

Yet more grunge that most people neither need nor want from Microsoft's new operating system. Why do we have Xbox Game pass clogging up our system? Who uses Xbox anyway when a PC does gaming so much better. As for 'the cloud', yet another way for Microsoft to spy!

Regarding the tours. Would definitely like to see the design phase and the end result. Especially if there is aspects where the end result vary from the initial design and any insight into why there is a variance (e.g. cost, prod techniques, etc).
