- The 16GB model of Nvidia's RTX 4060 Ti is here. Don't buy it. (Extreme Tech)
It averages 3% faster than the 8GB model but is 25% more expensive. Having 16GB of RAM means it will last a lot longer - current generation consoles also have 16GB of RAM so games are written with that in mind, and only having 8GB is already a problem.
But the retail price overlaps that of the much better RTX 4070, which is also overpriced and underpowered but still a clear winner over the 4060 Ti.
- If you want to spend just a little bit of money upgrading a PC, the 1TB Intel 670p is now $36. (Tom's Hardware)
This is a QLC drive but has a DRAM cache on board, so it's fine for typical desktop use.
It cost $154 when it first appeared in 2021.
- Hundreds of drones gracefully landed in Melbourne's Yarra River when a light show for a women's football game didn't go entirely as planned. (ABC)
And, this being the Yarra River, immediately fossilised.
- Which would win, Apple's M2 CPU as found in the MacBook Air, or AMD's Z1 Extreme, aimed at low-power portable gaming devices. (Phoronix)
The tests are run under Linux, and Linux is terrible on current Mac hardware, but these are pure CPU tests and it's shouldn't matter that much.
That said, the AMD chip clobbers the Apple hardware.
Disclaimer: Unless it doesn't.
