The latest Kia Sportage began to be assembled in Kostanay
President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev visited the Allur plant in Kostanay, where he launched a small-scale production line (CKD) for Kia cars. More than 2000 people work at the enterprise.
The new line will produce new generation Kia Sportage cars. Small-scale production includes assembly of automobiles, welding and painting works in special workshops. These technologies for the production of Kia in Central Asia and the CIS are available only in Kazakhstan.
Indeed, the plant is impressive. Very clean production, high production culture. We have just been shown a Kia Sportage model. The quality of this car is very decent. Therefore, I think that the demand will be high. We will invite investors to further expand the enterprise. In my opinion, the enterprise should not have any problems in the future. We attach great importance to the support of youth.

Nvidia, when will the budget GeForce RTX 40s appear for the desktop segment? Photos of junior GPUs AD107/AD106 for mobile RTX 4050/4060/4070 hit the Network
Photos of Nvidia GPUs of the Ada Lovelace generation, designed for low-cost video cards, have leaked to the Web.
In the picture you can see the AD107 and AD106 GPUs. So far, there are no processor data carriers in the desktop segment, but they have already been announced in the mobile segment: these are the RTX 4050/4060 and RTX 4070.
The new GPUs are very compact. The smaller one has an area of about 150-160 mm2, and the larger one has an area of 180-190 mm2. In comparison, the AD104, which the desktop RTX 4070 Ti is based on and the mobile RTX 4090 is supposed to be based on, measures almost 300mm2.
The AD107 has 3072 CUDA cores while the AD106 offers 4608 CUDA cores. In both cases, video cards will have a 128-bit memory bus.
Laptops based on graphics cards with these GPUs should hit the market soon.
