🍏 I did it, and it wasn’t even planned.
Upgraded from a SE2 to a 17 Pro 👇

- Initial @AMDRadeon Navi 48 chip analysis. AMD really outdid themself when it comes to density. Lot's of transistors in a small space.
- I've got FSR4 working in Cyberpunk 2077 via Optiscaler. FSR4 Performance looks better than FSR3 Quality! The difference is insane. Path Tracing runs with UWQHD@FSR4 Perf. at 50-60 FPS. Full RT runs well above 60 FPS with FSR4 Balanced. Game changer!
- .@Apple A19 SoC chip analysis based on images by @chipwise_tech: 2 P-cores with 8MB shared L2$, 4 E-cores with 4MB shared L2$, a 8-core NPU (Apple calls it 16-cores), 2x 6MB System Level Cache (SLC) and a 5-core GPU. All on TSMCs N3P and smaller than the previous A18.
- We now have confirmation that the entire European supply of RTX 50 FE cards was scalped by bots before the official launch. @PCGH_Redaktion tracked down the creator of the bot and his discord server. IMHO, all orders need to be canceled and @NVIDIAGeForce should look for a new
- That’s the confirmation. Zen 6 will use TSMC N2. Even before Apple it seems like.We're proud of our deep partnership with TSMC, and we know the need for compute will continue to grow, which is why we're excited to announce several updates... 🧵
- With 53.9 billion transistors on just 356.5mm², @AMDRadeon's Navi48 achieves 151 million transistors per mm². On TSMCs N4. That's crazy and I think more than what even TSMC claims is possible.
- If one @nvidia Blackwell is now "two GPUs" because it has two dies, does that mean one @AMDServer EPYC Turin is 16 CPUs, because it has 16 CCDs? My take: Jensen knows how much the next-gen chips will cost, so he's preparing the "but you get multiple GPUs" narrative.

- #NVIDIA's GB300 is massive with four Blackwell Ultra GPUs (288GB HBM3e each), two Grace CPUs (512GB SOCAMM LPDDR5X each, 480GB usable) and four Connect-X 8 SuperNICs. Pic @ryanshrout
- Quick #Apple A18 Pro / A18 chip analysis based on pictures by @chipwise_tech. Let me know if I made any mistakes or you have something to add.
- I couldn't help but notice that in this slide from @amdradeon's RDNA4 presentation, FSR4 AI Upscaling seems to be active on a RX 7800 XT 🧐 (thx @TechPowerUp for the slides!)
