Daily Tech News 3 June 2024

Top Story

The rumors were correct, and at Computex Taipei today AMD announced new CPUs due in stores next month. (AnandTech)

The Zen 3 based eight core 5800XT (a minor speed upgrade over the 5800X) and sixteen core 5900XT (a major upgrade over the twelve core 5900X) will refresh the AM4 platform.
Oh, and Zen 5 will also be out next month. (AnandTech)

These will arrive in the form of the 9600X, 9700X, 9900X, and 9950X, with TDPs ranging from 65W for the first two, to 170W for the 9950X.

The 9600X and 9700X use 40W less than their Zen 4 predecessors, and the 9700X uses 50W less.

At the same time they're an average of 16% faster on real tests, and twice as fast in some specific cases.
Server CPUs are coming soon as well, with up to 192 cores.

Tech News

Snowflake is at the center of the world's largest data breach. (Double Pulsar)

Snowflake is saying that they weren't breached, it's just that multiple customers were breached, all at the same time, without them noticing or doing anything about it.
How the new Microsoft Recall feature fundamentally undermines Windows security. (Double Pulsar)

Surely it's not that bad?
Stealing everything you ever type or viewed on your Windows PC is now possible - with just two lines of code. (Double Pulsar)

It is that bad.
The Asus ROG Ally X is what the Asus ROG Ally should have been. (The Verge)

It's not an upgrade in terms of screen or CPU, but it improves a whole host of small mechanical issues, increases RAM from 16GB to 24GB, doubles the storage, and doubles the battery life, while only adding two ounces to the weight.
Quake in 13k of JavaScript. (Tom's Hardware)

Well, sure, why not?
AI is a secret octopus playing connect the dots. (Tech Crunch)

Pretty much, yeah.
The talents from Prism Project, a vtuber agency owned by Sony prior to being abruptly shut down at the end of March, relaunched as an independent group named Prima Project with a concert at OffKai Expo.

Good for them.

This is the group with multiple Aussies. I've long been a fan for that and other reasons.
