Samsung has introduced a microSD card with data transfer speeds of up to 800 MB/s. It’s faster than any SATA SSD
Samsung Electronics has introduced the industry’s first microSD memory card supporting SD Express. The data transfer speed of this card reaches an impressive 800 MB/s.

This is more than any SATA SSD can provide and is four times faster than UHS-1 cards (up to 200 MB/s). Samsung specifically emphasizes that its cards will have thermal protection using Dynamic Thermal Guard (DTG) technology. Apparently, for now such cards will only be produced in the 256 GB version.

Of course, to take advantage of all the benefits of the new cards, you need devices that support the SD Express interface, and there aren’t many of those on the market.
Samsung also announced that it has launched mass production of 1 TB microSD (UHS-1) cards based on the latest eighth generation V-NAND flash memory. Such cards will appear on the market in the third quarter, and cards with support for SD Express will be released this year, but Samsung has not yet announced more precise dates.

Very unusual for Intel, Lunar Lake processors with only four large cores will be released in very limited volumes at the end of this year
It looks like Intel Lunar Lake processors will share the same fate as the current Meteor Lake processors. In the sense that the first ones will also be released at the very end of the year.
According to insider Golden Pig Upgrade, Intel will adhere to the same EEP (Early Enablement Program) in the case of Lunar Lake as when launching Mateor Lake. This means that some manufacturers in some markets will have access to new CPUs significantly earlier than others. This will lead to the fact that at the first stage Lunar Lake will not be available everywhere and in a limited range of laptops. But at the beginning of 2025, we will see a wider distribution of new CPUs.
Let us remember that Lunar Lake will be quite unusual processors. They’re being designed from the ground up with a focus on power efficiency, and will have a maximum of eight cores (four big and four small), and the big cores might not even get Hyper-Threading support, although there’s no official word on that yet.
Insider Golden Pig Upgrade Pack once shared performance leaks of Intel CPUs of different generations and published Intel slides describing the Meteor Lake CPU.

Intel’s ambitious new goal: shipping 100 million AI PC processors by the end of next year
Even processor manufacturers are increasingly talking about artificial intelligence. So Intel said it has set an ambitious goal: to deliver 100 million AI PC processors to the market by 2025.
In this case, apparently, this means by the end of 2025, since Intel clarifies that 40 million will be delivered this year and another 60 million next year.
Let us remind you that Intel currently only has an NPU unit for working with AI in Meteor Lake mobile processors. This year we are also expecting Arrow Lake and Lunar Lake, which will also have corresponding blocks. AMD, recall, has an NPU unit in the Ryzen 7040 and the new Ryzen 8040.
At the same time, from a software point of view, all this is still relatively useless for the average user, since there is practically nowhere to use these hardware resources.

“The world’s first Fast IPS gaming monitor with 4K IGZO technology and 165 Hz.” ViewSonic VX2781-4K-Pro-6 introduced
ViewSonic has unveiled the VX2781-4K-Pro-6 monitor, saying it is the “world’s first 4K IGZO 165Hz Fast IPS gaming monitor.”
The VX2781-4K-Pro-6 features a 27-inch Fast IPS panel with a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels. Response time is 1 ms. The monitor also features IGZO technology. This technology improves display performance through high electron mobility, delivering smoother images and faster response times.
The monitor has a brightness of 350 cd/m2 and a contrast ratio of 1000:1, support for 10-bit color depth, as well as coverage of 99% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and 100% of the sRGB color spectrum.
The equipment includes two HDMI 2.1 ports, one DP 1.4, one USB-C (with support for PD 15W and PD 96W), two USB-A, one USB-B and a 3.5 mm audio jack.
The monitor supports HDR600, FreeSync and G-Sync. It comes with ambient lighting effects and built-in 3W speakers.
