  1. Windows 11 has generated a lot of buzz, but not all of it has been positive. Many people think they’ll be left behind, but is that really true? Windows 11: https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/windows/windows-11 UUPDump: https://uupdump.net/
  2. Haha yeah, I went and bought 2 TEG-S82g switches to replace the ones I'm currently using. They were on sale, but more importantly they take 5V/1A for power so I can run them off an Anker PowerPort and save on power/heat as well as AC outlets. On the way out I noticed a 256GB SD card for cheap so I grabbed that too since I needed one for my PSIO.
  3. Microsoft’s poorly-kept secret was let out of the bag early – Perhaps intentionally. But how much did we REALLY learn before today’s announcement? And did we learn anything today? Windows 11's official landing page: https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/windows/windows-11
  4. AMD has long needed FidelityFX Super Resolution to be competitive with Nvidia in ray tracing performance, and now that it’s finally here, could it possibly put up a fight? Does it have to? Thanks to 3kliksphilip for permission to use clips from his excellent DLSS low-res video:
  5. Apple’s new iMac has caused a lot of controversy for its white bezels, but what if I told you there's something much worse to worry about? Buy Apple iMac 2021 On Amazon (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/iF2g On Best Buy (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/tDFBtw On Newegg (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/MJ7CiJ
  6. In an age where people will fight over even the chance to get a video card, does it really matter how one performs or what it costs? And is the 3070 Ti even any good? Buy NVIDIA RTX 3080 Ti (PAID LINK): Coming soon Buy NVIDIA RTX 3080 (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/Si8kya
  7. Nvidia’s got interesting ideas for managing the silicon shortage, and their latest tactic is to improve supply by making the RTX 3090 obsolete. A bold move – Could it work? Buy NVIDIA RTX 3080 Ti (PAID LINK): Coming soon Buy NVIDIA RTX 3090 (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/OqXR Buy NVIDIA RTX 3080 (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/Si8kya Buy AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/uVzF
  8. Dr. Lisa Su kicked off COMPUTEX 2021 with a bang, and there’s a LOT to talk about. So let’s do that. Sorry, Intel.
  9. When was the last time a FULLY AMD laptop could compete with the best Intel/Nvidia could muster? Um… never? Gaming notebooks may never be the same… Buy ASUS ROG Strix G15 Laptop (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/LtaOmY7 Purchases made through some store links may provide some compensation to Linus Media Group.
  10. Dell makes computers. Dell makes monitors. You would think that Dell could find a way to merge the two without making an all-in-one – And you’d be right! Let’s look at the OptiPlex 7070 Ultra… Buy Dell OptiPlex 7070 Ultra Desktop (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/ONKV
  11. We don’t usually cover Google events, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t important – It’s just not as big as an Apple event. This time, though, there was simply too much to ignore… Buy Google Pixel Phone (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/j41UU0N Buy Google Wear OS Watches (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/fsHMvAV
  12. Honestly? This is embarrassing, but I just never noticed.
  13. The M1 Mac Mini was an impressive machine with one major caveat – Apple removed the 10 gigabit NIC. We thought it was because they couldn’t make it work. We thought wrong… Or did we? Buy Apple Mac mini M1 (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/jJPvr
  14. AMD has had APUs for a long time, and in the middle of a GPU shortage, they’re more relevant than ever. So why are the best APUs they’ve ever made not for sale? Buy AMD Ryzen 7 Pro 4750G CPU (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/CxxvS Purchases made through some store links may provide some compensation to Linus Media Group.
  15. VirtualBox doesn't have this feature, no, but Linux KVM / vfio does and is also free. This is what we used for demonstration purposes in the video. If you're already up and running, then not much. You can remove the workarounds and have a "pure" VM, and you won't have to worry about something breaking due to changes in Nvidia's VM detection or what have you. It just makes your life easier, or more accurately, it makes your life as easy as it should have been in the first place. Either they felt it was "weird" to have no audio, they weren't aware the Kona was an EV and audio wasn't rolling when they shot that scene, or they wanted to see how many people would notice.
  16. For years, Nvidia has tried to artificially block GPU passthrough on GeForce cards, but now they’ve finally made a 180. Could this be the start of a new Nvidia? Buy NVIDIA RTX 3080 GPU (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/Si8kya Buy AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT GPU (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/UsUD Buy a Ryzen CPU (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/SOqq Buy an Intel CPU (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/AM9ILRm Purchases made through some store links may provide some compensation to Linus Media Group.
  17. Apple wasn’t even expected to HAVE an event this Spring, but they surprised us by not only doing one, but announcing new iPads, iMacs, and more! Mac Address video: Buy Apple iMac 24" (PAID LINK): Coming soon Buy Apple iPad Pro 2021 (PAID LINK): Coming soon Buy Apple iPhone 12 (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/fgfF6Y Buy Apple Airtags (PAID LINK): Coming soon Buy AppleTV 4K (PAID LINK): Coming soon Purchases made through some store links may provide some compensation to Linus Media Group.
  18. Photoshop has been around for so long that it’s synonymous with photo editing - So much so that Corridor Digital thinks they can do it with ANY version. Let's put that to the test... Check out Corridor Digital's video: https://youtu.be/8LkUzVexLTU
  19. AMD introduced Smart Access Memory with their Radeon 6000 series, and since then pressure has been on for Nvidia to respond. Now that they finally have, is it enough? Buy Nvidia RTX 3080 GPU (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/967U Buy AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT GPU (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/r1CP0F7
  20. Intel’s 11th-gen Core architecture wasn’t supposed to be on 14nm - But it is. Let’s find out what kinds of trade-offs they’ve had to make to make Rocket Lake take off… Buy Intel Core i9-11900K CPU (PAID LINK): Coming Soon Buy Intel Core i5-11600K (PAID LINK): Coming Soon Buy Intel Core i9-10900K CPU (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/NHuEp Buy Intel Core i5-10600K CPU (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/ItBS3p Buy AMD Ryzen 9 5900X CPU (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/zXQqjfu Buy AMD Ryzen 5 5600X CPU (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/vKAE
  21. AMD can’t help it sometimes. Nvidia makes a mistake and they just have to one-up them. With the timing of this launch, that’s exactly what the Radeon RX 6700 XT is - But could it still be good? Check out the Radeon RX 6700 XT at https://geni.us/8KOEHcP Buy an AMD GPU On Amazon (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/6gEz On Best Buy (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/CSmTN35 On WalMart (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/CSsiAFO On Newegg (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/JpJV1v On B&H (PAID LINK): https://geni.us/MjPA
  22. AMD’s EPYC forms the basis for Threadripper, and with Zen 3, it’s not even a fair fight with Intel anymore. How can Intel turn this around, and can AMD keep it going?
  23. ASUS has made a lot of RoG Phones since they first launched in 2018, and with each revision, it comes closer to perfection… Can innovation really keep moving fast enough to keep a smartphone interesting?
  24. In the middle of a crypto boom and silicon shortage, AMD has announced a new graphics card. Is that really such a good idea right now?
