HW News - TSMC Moving Past Silicon, RTX 3080 Official Info, Intel Drops Ball on Supercomputer

Hardware news is busy: NVIDIA has official RTX 3000 information, Seasonic has leaked the 12-pin specs, TSMC is talking about its plans for a post-silicon world, Corsair does 1B, & more. Hardware news has a lot to think about this week. One of the most interesting stories, we think, is the one from TSMC. The fab is looking to move to 5nm and 3nm in the near-ish future, but is starting to experiment with materials that aren't silicon for its future chips. That's still a ways off, but it's worth becoming familiar with the topic now. At some point, we're probably going to run into manufacturing limits with silicon. Additionally, Cryorig may finally be shipping a cooler it showed at Computex several years ago (probably the R5 -- we'll see), Corsair apparently has done 1B in revenue and is seeking an IPO, and ASUS is teasing... keyboard switches on the day of the NVIDIA announcement, which tells us that they probably really want to show video cards, but aren't allowed to say that's what they're showing.

Very disappointed you ran with that NYT click bait piece as if it were a fact. If you actually bothered to read the article you would have noticed that neither Intel or the DoE announced any delay it was based on supposition from the earnings report. I expect bad tech reporting from a place like NYT, but not here from GN.
I want to be very clear that I'm not saying it won't be delayed, because all of the signs are pointing to that being likely. Likelihood does not make facts and should not be reported as such.

don't understand why they say it requires 850W PSUs..
my 10900k (5 GHz all core) needs around 235W in Cinebench
when gaming i see around 65-80W
lets say i buy a high end AIB model with a 400W Powerlimit and the whole motherboard, SSDs and HDDs draws 100W.
even then.. Running Prime95, Furmark with a 400W Powerdraw, Disk stresstest, Fans at 100%, and RGB on 100% brightness at the same time does not fully utilize a 750W PSU. (since some stuff runs from the 3.3 and 5v rail)

I wonder if it is not time for a new design for a pc form factor? One that treats the graphics card and motherboard/CPU as equally important components. Treating graphics cards as an add in card as this point in time is a little silly, as the power requirements and cooling are often times more than the CPU. Surely a redesigned form factor would free designs of the obvious limitations of treating graphics cards as add in boards.

Corsair going public isnt a good thing in my opinion. Every good company I've ever been a fan of that went public had their quality drop after. Once you have shareholders which have no ties to the company beyond a desire to make more money, it universally results in more push to maximize profits than what they would normally experience when not public.

Still seems to me like NVidia just really wants to force AMD into having to come up with new power routing on their video cards without much of an otherwise need for it, since NVidia's strangehold on the market means likely means that PSU manufacturers will likely switch to shipping with a 12-pin power cable within the next few years.

Corsair's going public is terrible. Public companies are required to make products cheaper and less reliable for large margins. Failure to do so can be prosecuted as failure of due diligence and board members can face steep fines, industry shame and blackballing, and even jail time. This is always bad for the consumer.

Cloud computing is a valid coverall, as services like Shadow provide a full desktop meaning you can use it for general computing/productivity usage as well gaming. So as global network/ISP speeds increase and those speeds become more broadly available, the need to have local pc hardware will decrease.
reply

Technically Corsair isn't wrong. Cloud gaming is a part of cloud computing. And their description of cloud computing is pretty accurate with the exception that graphically sophisticated is not part of the normal cloud computing. But that is nothing they claimed, so they are still not wrong.

Jensen sweating in his billion dollar jacket....oh, have mercy, your grace.
I wouldn't be very surprised if NVidia is purposely leaking tons of information just for the sake of keeping themselves in the news cycle without doing a constant PR thing and avoiding that backlash.

As someone that Bought a lot of Corsair Products over the Past Decade, I've found myself Moving away from Corsair finding out that there are Other products that are as good or even sometimes Better than Corsair for a Lot Less!
Thanks again for the Great Work Guys!!
