Top Story

The first two Ryzen 9000 CPUs are here and.... Hmm. (AnandTech)

Compared to the Ryzen 7700X, the new 9700X is typically 13% faster on single-threaded integer benchmarks, and 27% faster on floating point, while cutting the power consumption by 40% from 105W to 65W.

On multi-threaded benchmarks things are less rosy, with the new chip only being 5% faster in some tasks.

That makes it look like the power has been cut a little too much.

We'll soon see, because the 9900X should appear next week, with 50% more cores but a TDP 85% higher at 120W.

So right now the 9700X is a fast chip that outruns Intel's 14600K at most tasks while using less than half the power, but not a remarkable chip.

Tech News

Intel is preparing its Arrow Lake family to try to retake the desktop CPU market after dropping it on the floor. (WCCFTech)

These will use 100W less power than comparable 14th generation chips - that is, the power reduction will be more than AMD's chips use in the first place.

Early indications are that they might be slightly slower than existing chips, but at least they won't die. Maybe.
Speaking of which, will my vendor replace my dead Intel CPU? Probably. (The Verge)

Asus and HP, along with most of the smaller system builders, confirmed the two year warranty extension would apply to their customers. Dell was less specific but did say that if you were impacted by this fault, all costs would be covered in fixing your PC.
A judge has fined financial blockchain Ripple - which makes it easy to exchange currencies through intermediaries - $125 million in a case brought by the SEC. (CoinDesk)

The SEC is expected to appeal because it wanted fines totaling $1.9 billion.
Dell is expected to lay off more people after disappointing quarterly results. (Silicon Angle)

Numbers floating around go as high as 12,500 - after layoffs of 13,000 last year - but the company is yet to make an announcement.

Telegram to the Penza Soviet, August 11, 1918

"Comrades! The insurrection of five kulak districts should be pitilessly suppressed. The interests of the whole revolution require this because 'the last decisive battle' with the kulaks is now underway everywhere. An example must be made.

- Hang (absolutely hang, in full view of the people) no fewer than one hundred known kulaks, fatcats, bloodsuckers.
- Publish their names.
- Seize all grain from them.
- Designate hostages - in accordance with yesterday's telegram.

Do it in such a fashion, that for hundreds of verst around the people see, tremble, know, shout: "the bloodsucking kulaks are being strangled and will be strangled".

Telegraph receipt and implementation. Yours, Lenin.

COJ, they should mount that on a billboard for new arrivals in the city to see. It would save time.

Apparently a Mylar balloon hit a power line and took out power to several of the water pumps for the city. Water pressure dropped before they got the units back on line. So there is a chance of bacterial contamination in the tap water. They are testing the water to see. My home area is not part of the advisory, but my work is.
