AMD Finally Addresses Radeon RX 7900 High Temperature Issue
AMD has fully and officially responded to the situation with the high temperature of the hotspot on the Radeon RX 7900 graphics cards.
We are aware that a limited number of users are experiencing unexpected thermal throttling on AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX graphics cards (reference models manufactured by AMD). AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX users experiencing unexpected thermal throttling should contact AMD Support
Thus, the company invites everyone to contact the support service, that is, it does not refuse to solve the problem. Recall that the other day one of the owners of the card said that when contacting AMD, he was told that a temperature of 110 degrees is the norm.
Yesterday, PowerColor offered its help to all those affected, at the same time noting that AMD is still investigating the problem. Now we see that AMD itself has decided to meet users.
It is not yet clear how the story will end. Recall that the high Junction Temp temperature was the norm back in the days of the RX 5700, and there were no technical problems with the cards against this background. In addition, only reference cards suffer from the problem, that is, a simple replacement of one reference card with the same new one is unlikely to solve anything.

Under lock and key: Google Chrome will ask for biometrics to access the password manager

Google has released an important security update for its Chrome browser.
Google Password Manager is pretty versatile as it allows you to sync all your saved passwords across mobile and desktop devices. Until now, the Chrome desktop browser used PINs and passwords to authenticate users before exposing stored data.
Now, if your computer (Windows and macOS) has an external or built-in biometric authentication system, such as a fingerprint scanner or a face scanner, you can use it to access data stored in the Chrome password manager.
It works pretty much the same as it does on Android tablet phones when accessing saved passwords in Chrome. Once authenticated, the user will be able to copy the saved password or edit the entry.
