Unavailable Ampere – only 15% of ordered GeForce RTX 3080 video cards end up in the hands of buyers
Nvidia’s RTX 30 Ampere generation graphics cards have been formally on the market for three months, but purchasing them is still extremely problematic. The MyDrivers portal, referring to one of the largest online platforms in the Middle Kingdom, writes that at the moment only 15% of orders for the GeForce RTX 3080 accelerator are being fulfilled. 85% of potential buyers, alas, are left with nothing.
What about the flagship GeForce RX 3090? The situation with it is not much better – only 25% of orders are fulfilled. The easiest way is to buy a GeForce RTX 3070 – 40% of those who want to get this video card. Finally, the newest in the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti series ends up in the hands of 30%.
Unfortunately, no one has precise information when the supply problems will end. But analysts speculate that nVidia will manage to tackle the deficit by spring 2021.

Incredible CPU performance or super powerful iGPU. Ryzen 7000 mobile processor details revealed

The new generation of mobile Ryzen 7000 processors will be much more impressive than their predecessors than the desktop ones, according to recent data.
We are talking about a line of APUs called Dragon Range. Processors in this line will be labeled as Ryzen 70000HX. Now AMD also has such APUs, but they are not much different from other mobile high-end models. Dragon Range will be very different.
As you can see, the source says that within this line, AMD will finally launch processors with more than eight cores in the mobile segment. More specifically, the Ryzen 9 7980HX will have 16 cores, the Ryzen 9 7900HX will have 12 cores, the Ryzen 7 7800HX will have 8 cores, and the Ryzen 5 7600HX will have 6 cores. That is, these APUs will be as similar as possible to desktop ones. True, AMD’s Ryzen mobile processors have always had a monolithic crystal, and that is why they were maximum eight-core. It turns out that Dragon Range will be chiplet. Perhaps, physically, these will be the same desktop APUs, only with reduced power limits. For example, the source indicates the maximum frequencies in the range of 4.8-5.0 GHz or slightly higher. In addition, such APUs will receive iGPUs with 256 stream processors.
AMD will also have a Phoenix line with Ryzen 7000HS processors. These APUs will be more familiar with six to eight cores. The Ryzen 9 7980HS, Ryzen 9 7900HS, and Ryzen 7 7800HS will each have eight cores, while the Ryzen 5 7600HS will have six. In this case, the former will receive an iGPU with 1536 stream processors, and the latter will have a core with 768 stream processors.
The older iGPU, as previously stated and according to the source, will operate at frequencies of 2.6-3.0 GHz, which will provide incredible performance for the integrated graphics core – 9.2 TFLOPS. This could be the level of the mobile GeForce RTX 3060 Max-Q.
Despite the smaller number of processor cores, such APUs can also be chiplet-based. The source believes that there will be three crystals: a processor, an iGPU, and some kind of chiplet associated with the memory subsystem. Perhaps it will be Infinity Cache memory.

Weaker than any video card of modern generations. GeForce GTX 1630 images revealed

Images of the GeForce GTX 1630 graphics card have appeared on the Web, which should hit the market tomorrow if Nvidia does not postpone the launch again.
The model is very similar to MSI cards, but this device is from Colorful. The adapter of the BattleAx line received a cooling system with a pair of fans, but the radiator does not have a single heat pipe. However, given the parameters of the GTX 1630, its power consumption will be low.
Ports include HDMI, DisplayPort, and the now rare DVI. To work, the card still requires a six-pin power connector.
Recall that the new Nvidia is based on the TU117 GPU with 512 CUDA cores. She also received 4 GB of memory and a 64-bit bus. The adapter is expected to be even slightly slower than the GTX 1050 Ti.

The new Apple M2-based MacBook Pro has half the SSD speed of last year’s Apple M1-based NGA model

Following the release of Apple’s new 13-inch MacBook Pro based on the Apple M2, the $1,300 base model with a 256GB SSD was found to have significantly slower read/write speeds compared to the equivalent previous generation model.
YouTube channel Max Tech and Created Tech tested this version with the Blackmagic Disk Speed Test app and found that the SSD read and write speeds are about 1450 MB/s, which is about 50% slower when reading and about 30% slower when writing. compared to a 13-inch Apple M1-based MacBook Pro with a 256GB SSD.
Max Tech results:
- 13″ MacBook Pro (M1/256GB) Read Speed: 2900
- 13″ MacBook Pro (M2/256GB) Read speed: 1446
- 13″ MacBook Pro (M1/256 GB) Write speed: 2215
- 13″ MacBook Pro (M2/256 GB) Write speed: 1463
Upon disassembly, the new 13-inch MacBook Pro with 256 GB of memory was found to have only one NAND flash chip, while the previous model had two NAND chips of 128 GB each. This difference probably explains why the new model has a slower SSD: multiple NAND chips in parallel provide faster speeds.
Perhaps this decision is due to lower costs and / or lack of components. Apple has not yet commented on the situation.
