Instead of happy gamers, there will be happy miners. Biostar iMiner 660MX8D2 system based on conventional gaming Radeon RX 6600
In the era of shortage of video cards, Biostar continues to create and sell mining farms based on ordinary 3D gaming cards without any hesitation.
The new brainchild of the company is called iMiner 660MX8D2. As the name implies, it is based on eight Radeon RX 6600 video cards. The system performance is declared equal to 248 MH / s.
The setup is also based on a Biostar motherboard, an Intel Pentium G4900 processor, and 8GB of RAM. The total power consumption is 1056 watts.
Recall that Radeon RX 6000 video cards do not have any protection against mining, therefore they are not subject to problems inherent in GeForce RTX 30 adapters.
Microsoft has published a report on the results of the second quarter of fiscal year 2023.
The company’s revenue rose 2% to $52.7 billion, while net income fell 12% to $16.4 billion.
This is far from Microsoft’s best quarter. These results are due to several reasons. First, there is a decline in revenue from manufacturers of laptops with Windows and PC sales in the market as a whole. Secondly, sales of Microsoft devices sank by a considerable 39%.
Also not the best way to feel in the last quarter and the gaming division of the company. In general, the Xbox division was marked by a decrease in revenue. Game sales fell by 13%, hardware sales fell by the same amount, that is, primarily consoles, and revenue from services and services decreased by 12%.
At the same time, Microsoft notes the further growth of the Game Pass service, but, as always, does not name the number of users and revenue.
Opera Software has announced a fresh update for the branded game browser Opera GX. The popular short video service TikTok has been integrated into the sidebar of the browser.
As planned by the developers, this will simplify the search for content. The company explained:
We know that the majority of TikTok users watch gaming content every day, so now you can enjoy content from all your favorite creators and communities right on the big screen.
Opera GX gives you direct access to TikTok: you can discover new creators, create and share your own memes, and more.
New Opera GX users will have immediate access to TikTok in the sidebar. Existing Opera GX users will have to activate the feature in the sidebar settings under Messengers.

Is Intel preparing a new Arc graphics card for budget gamers? Model with 16 Xe cores lit up on the Web
Intel may release another Arc graphics card in the near future.
The unnamed model showed up in CompuBench. It is known that this model has 256 computing units, that is, 16 Xe cores. We have not seen such a configuration among desktop adapters before. Recall that the Arc A580 model, which we were told about back in the summer and which has not yet been released, has 24 Xe cores.
At the same time, Intel has a mobile Arc A550M with 16 Xe cores, which means that the company may be preparing a desktop version of this model. Benchmark says that the unnamed model is 42% slower than the top-end Arc A770. If the difference is about the same in games, then this is about the level between the GTX 1650 Super and the GTX 1660 Super.
