According to new information from Tom's Hardware (https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/cpus/amd-announces-unified-udna-gpu-architecture-bringing-rdna-and-cdna-together-to-take-on-nvidias-cuda-ecosystem), AMD has announced plans to unify its consumer-focused gaming RDNA and data center CDNA graphics architectures into a single, unified design called "UDNA." The announcement was made by AMD's Jack Huynh, Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Computing and Graphics Business Group, at IFA 2024 in Berlin. The goal of the new UDNA architecture is to provide a single focus point for developers so that each optimized application can run on consumer-grade GPU like Radeon RX 7900XTX as well as high-end data center GPU like Instinct MI300. This will create a unification similar to NVIDIA's CUDA, which enables CUDA-focused developers to run applications on everything ranging from laptops to data centers.
Jack HuynhSo, part of a big change at AMD is today we have a CDNA architecture for our Instinct data center GPUs and RDNA for the consumer stuff. It's forked. Going forward, we will call it UDNA. There'll be one unified architecture, both Instinct and client [consumer]. We'll unify it so that it will be so much easier for developers versus today, where they have to choose and value is not improving.https://tpucdn.com/img/2uxtaxGo0KJfEQQ5_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/2uxtaxGo0KJfEQQ5.jpg)

TrendForce reports that NAND Flash prices continued to rise in 2Q24 as server inventory adjustments neared completion and AI spurred demand for high-capacity storage products. However, high inventory levels among PC and smartphone buyers led to a 1% QoQ decline in NAND Flash bit shipments. Despite this, ASP increased by 15% and drove total revenue to US$16.796 billion, a 14.2% growth compared to the previous quarter.

All NAND Flash suppliers returned to profitability starting in the second quarter and are expanding capacity in the third quarter to meet strong demand from AI and server markets. However, weaker-than-expected PC and smartphone sales in the first half of the year are likely to constrain NAND Flash shipment growth.https://tpucdn.com/img/MdoUm9o9EuMpBFy6_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/MdoUm9o9EuMpBFy6.jpg)

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is almost here, and from the looks of it, it's going to be a massive hit in the gaming industry if done to the finish without any hiccups. Not even true fans of the Stalker series would have been able to anticipate the massive map size of the Stalker 2 game. And the most interesting past is, it's all handcrafted and is not created using any procedural generation, as revealed by technical producer Evegeniy Kulik in an interview (https://screenrant.com/stalker-2-heart-chornobyl-interview/).

The game will feature a 64 square kilometers world, divided into 20 regions, each with different enemies, anomalies and people. As we all know, Stalker 2 is nearing release, and from what we can see, PlayStation players are going to miss out, as the game is slated for release on PC and Xbox. Despite the challenging development period due to the war, the team has cemented the game's title as a true gem in the making, causing us gamers to have nothing but respect towards GSC Game World for their dedication and effort. Just wait to see how hard these developers have worked in creating this game's open world - very uniquely.https://tpucdn.com/img/1Z9NdTEyRY2SZhmB_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/1Z9NdTEyRY2SZhmB.jpg) https://tpucdn.com/img/OdDb3fkHsOAT7dZ4_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/OdDb3fkHsOAT7dZ4.jpg)

TSMC has reportedly managed to produce yields at its Arizona facility that are on par with yields back home in Taiwan, making its expansion efforts successful. According to Bloomberg, TSMC did a trial production, a multi-month effort, to produce N4 node wafers with low defect rates. With wafers now in TSMC's labs for testing, it is reported that Arizona facility yields have achieved parity with their Taiwanese facilities back home. This indicates that TSMC's efforts to expand in the US are so far considered a success, as advanced chipmaking is a very complex process that is only done by a few makers and in very few locations. With TSMC expanding in the US now and proving that its technology can work on US soil, the company has a green light to start volume production in the first half of 2025.

However, this is only the beginning of TSMC's Arizona expansion. The Taiwanese giant plans to have a second fab operational by 2028 and produce 2 nm and 3 nm chips in the state. Additionally, there will be a third facility for 2 nm and more advanced nodes in Phoenix, bringing the total value of TSMC's US expansion efforts to $65 billion, with $6.6 billion from the CHIPS Act grants and $5 billion in loans from the US government. If upcoming fabs follow the lead of the first facility, US-based production needs will possibly be satisfied.https://tpucdn.com/img/WPTAeuaaMY6C95if_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/WPTAeuaaMY6C95if.jpg)

The Netherlands government announced additional export controls on advanced chipmaking equipment on Friday. This decision, which specifically targets ASML's DUV immersion lithography tools, has drawn sharp criticism from Beijing. The new regulations, aligning with similar restrictions imposed by the US last year, will require additional licensing for the export of ASML's 1970i and 1980i models. China's Commerce Ministry swiftly responded to the announcement, expressing dissatisfaction with what it perceives as unwarranted restrictions on trade. In a statement released Sunday, the ministry accused the United States of leveraging its global influence to pressure allies into tightening export controls, describing it as an attempt to maintain "global hegemony" in the semiconductor industry.

The Chinese government urged the Netherlands to reconsider its position, calling for a balance between security concerns and the preservation of mutually beneficial economic ties. Beijing emphasized the importance of safeguarding the "common interests" of businesses in both countries and warned against potential damage to Sino-Dutch cooperation in the semiconductor sector. Dutch Trade Minister Reinette Klever defended the decision, stating it was made "for our safety." However, this move could have significant implications for ASML, which has already faced restrictions on exporting its most advanced systems to China. ASML receives as much as 49% of its revenue (https://www.techpowerup.com/326196/china-bought-more-chipmaking-tools-in-the-first-half-of-2024-than-us-taiwan-and-south-korea-combined) from China, meaning that additional export regulations could significantly reduce revenues if licenses aren't approved.https://tpucdn.com/img/c8X4rTPYatAzExpl_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/c8X4rTPYatAzExpl.jpg)

AMD in an interview with Tom's Hardware, confirmed that its next generation of gaming GPUs based on the RDNA 4 graphics architecture will not target the enthusiast graphics segment. Speaking with Paul Alcorn, AMD's Computing and Graphics Business Group head Jack Huynh, said that with its next generation, AMD will focus on gaining market share in the PC gaming graphics market, which means winning price-performance battles against NVIDIA in key mainstream- and performance segments, similar to what it did with the Radeon RX 5000 series based on the original RDNA graphics architecture, and not get into the enthusiast segment that's low-margin with the kind of die-sizes at play, and move low volumes. AMD currently only holds 12% of the gaming discrete GPU market, something it sorely needs to turn around, given that its graphics IP is contemporary.

On a pointed question on whether AMD will continue to address the enthusiast GPU market, given that allocation for cutting-edge wafers are better spent on data-center GPUs, Huynh replied: "I am looking at scale, and AMD is in a different place right now. We have this debate quite a bit at AMD, right? So the question I ask is, the PlayStation 5, do you think that's hurting us? It's $499. So, I ask, is it fun to go King of the Hill? Again, I'm looking for scale. Because when we get scale, then I bring developers with us. So, my number one priority right now is to build scale, to get us to 40 to 50 percent of the market faster. Do I want to go after 10% of the TAM [Total Addressable Market] or 80%? I'm an 80% kind of guy because I don't want AMD to be the company that only people who can afford Porsches and Ferraris can buy. We want to build gaming systems for millions of users. Yes, we will have great, great, great products. But we tried that strategy [King of the Hill]—it hasn't really grown. ATI has tried this King of the Hill strategy, and the market share has kind of been...the market share. I want to build the best products at the right system price point. So, think about price point-wise; we'll have leadership."https://tpucdn.com/img/O6pkOkqii4NoAP7L_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/O6pkOkqii4NoAP7L.jpg)

One of the most popular SATA SSD brands, the Crucial MX500, has a vulnerability in its firmware version M3CR046. Apparently, specific ATA packets issued from the host can trigger a buffer overflow in the drive, cause data leaks. The vulnerability has been chronicled as CVE-2024-42642 (https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2024-42642). At this point we're not sure if older versions of firmware for the MX500 are affected. M3CR046 happens to be the latest firmware version we could see in the Crucial Storage Executive app, which means the company is still working on a firmware update.https://tpucdn.com/img/nmu51XGKwCkV0py3_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/nmu51XGKwCkV0py3.jpg)

Cyberpunk 2077 has historically been a challenging game to run, although a number of optimizations and updates throughout the game's life cycle have improved quality of life and visuals greatly. The latest Cyberpunk PC patch 2.13, released on September 12, aims to improve both the base game and the Phantom Liberty expansion with the introduction of AMD's Fidelity FX Super Resolution with Frame Generation.

The addition of FSR 3 comes almost a year after the game gained support for NVIDIA's competing DLSS 3.5 and AMD claims that Frame Generation and FSR 3 can boost frame rates by upwards of 300% at higher resolutions with less of a quality penalty than previous versions. Cyberpunk's performance gains are likely less drastic, though, since even AMD says its Fluid Motion Frames 2 (https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/amd-rolls-out-fluid-motion-frames-2-technical-preview-with-significant-upgrades.325019/) only achieves a 78% performance boost. Performance claims aside, FSR 3 and frame generation should make playing Cyberpunk 2077 on devices like the Steam Deck more viable, since the Steam Deck doesn't have the benefit of AMD Fluid Motion Frames built into the AMD drivers like Windows devices do.https://tpucdn.com/img/7BBDCtFA7WfEgbWl_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/7BBDCtFA7WfEgbWl.jpg) https://tpucdn.com/img/RzjblvipqKe2AzuR_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/RzjblvipqKe2AzuR.jpg)

Intel's upcoming Core Ultra 200 "Arrow Lake-S" desktop processors will herald a new wave of overclocking memory kits as the architecture is expected to support even higher memory speeds than the current 14th Gen Core. The product page of an ASRock Z890 motherboard lists out maximum memory speeds for various DIMM configurations. The most overclocker-friendly config—1 single-rank DIMM per channel—sees ASRock mention support for DDR5-9200+ (OC). The fastest DDR5 OC memory kits in the market are DDR5-8600, and over the Summer, JEDEC announced standardization of high frequency DDR5 configurations, including the likes of DDR5-8800. Such high frequencies require the DIMM to feature a clock driver.

Those looking for high capacity memory configurations have big reason to cheer. For two single-rank DIMMs per channel, or one dual-rank DIMM per channel, the motherboard's product page mentions an OC speed of DDR5-6800+. This should be a boon for those wanting large memory capacities such as 96 GB or 128 GB using dual-rank DIMMs at reasonably high speeds. Even the densest memory configuration, two dual-rank DIMMs per channel, has a maximum OC speed of DDR5-5800+. This should allow users to approach the platform's maximum memory capacity, such as 256 GB using four 64 GB dual-rank DIMMs, or 192 GB using four 48 GB DIMMs, but at much higher speeds that what the current platforms are capable of.https://tpucdn.com/img/vbrYSRQdW0tiwGK9_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/vbrYSRQdW0tiwGK9.jpg)

XMG is introducing the XMG APEX 17 MAX, its first gaming laptop featuring AMD's high-end processors from the Dragon Range series. This classic 17.3-inch laptop combines a Ryzen 9 7945HX with NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 4070 or 4060, along with a 165 Hz WQHD display offering 100% DCI-P3 and sRGB color space coverage. The 'MAX' suffix has always signified maximum CPU performance in XMG's APEX series laptops. While the APEX 17 MAX (M24) no longer features a socketed processor like earlier models, it is powered by the AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX, the laptop version of the Zen 4 desktop CPU AMD Ryzen 9 7950X. Both are built on the same 'Raphael' processor die, manufactured in a 5 nm process, offering 16 fully-fledged cores and 32 threads. This powerhouse CPU is paired with either an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 or 4060, both delivering up to 125 watts of graphics performance (115 W TGP plus 10 W Dynamic Boost).

The display lid of the 17.3-inch XMG APEX 17 MAX, measuring 402 x 265 x 28.6 mm and weighing 2.85 kg, is made of aluminium for enhanced stability. The IPS panel features a classic 16:9 format with a resolution of 2,560 x 1,440 pixels, covering 100% of both the DCI-P3 and sRGB color spaces. It has a 165 Hz refresh rate, 330 nits of brightness, and supports AMD FreeSync. The display also offers a power-saving 60 Hz mode, allowing for extended battery life from the 73 Wh battery, which is internally screw-fastened and therefore replaceable. Additionally, the iGPU-only mode, selectable via the Control Center, enhances battery efficiency by completely deactivating the NVIDIA dGPU after a system restart, allowing the system to rely solely on the energy-efficient AMD iGPU. A MUX switch also enables users to switch the internal display connection between the dGPU and iGPU.https://tpucdn.com/img/yB2YBCRu0SBDy9kW_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/yB2YBCRu0SBDy9kW.jpg) https://tpucdn.com/img/MyjwMGsKTdBKMtgl_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/MyjwMGsKTdBKMtgl.jpg) https://tpucdn.com/img/OXZBh50akAdPbYld_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/OXZBh50akAdPbYld.jpg) https://tpucdn.com/img/b36zEnM9syiJqzj1_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/b36zEnM9syiJqzj1.jpg)

Samsung's foundry plans have again hit a major setback. The company notified staff at its Taylor, Texas facility that it was temporarily removing workers from the site because it is still experiencing challenges with 2 nm semiconductor yields, delaying mass production timelines from late 2024 to 2026. The Taylor site had been anticipated as the flagship facility for Samsung's sub-4 nm production, allowing access to potential customers near the facility. While Samsung has moved rapidly in terms of process development, its yields for advanced nodes have outstripped them, the company's yields for sub-3 nm processes hover around 50%, with Gate-All-Around (GAA) technology witnessing yields of only 10-20%, significantly lower than neighboring competitor TSMC's 60-70% for corresponding nodes.

The yield gaps that the company is experiencing have exacerbated the gap in market share, with TSMC capturing 62.3% of the global foundry market share in Q2 versus Samsung's 11.5%. The company is struggling to gain share despite efforts by Chairman Lee Jae-yong - including visits to component suppliers ASML, and Zeiss - and these yields put at risk as much as 9 trillion won in U.S. CHIP Act potential subsidies that are dependent upon operational milestones.https://tpucdn.com/img/AHkIbZKQefZQqFQ9_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/AHkIbZKQefZQqFQ9.jpg) https://tpucdn.com/img/ozWHHaVdGl0mmWxx_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/ozWHHaVdGl0mmWxx.jpg)

NVIDIA quietly released a variant of the GeForce RTX 4070 featuring slower 20 Gbps GDDR6 memory, replacing the 21 Gbps GDDR6X that the original RTX 4070 comes with. Wccftech has access to a GALAX branded RTX 4070 GDDR6, and put it through benchmarks focused on comparing it to a regular RTX 4070. Memory type and speed are the only changes in specs, the core-configuration isn't changed, nor is the GPU clock speed. Wccftech's testing shows that the RTX 4070 GDDR6 measures within 0-1% slower than the RTX 4070 (GDDR6X) at 1080p and 1440p resolutions; while the difference between the two is about 2% at 4K Ultra HD.

Wccftech's test-bed is comprehensive, with 27 game tests, each across 3 resolutions; and 7 synthetic tests. The synthetic tests are mainly part of the 3DMark test suite, including Speed Way, Fire Strike, Time Spy, Port Royal, and their presets. Here, the RTX 4070 GDDR6 is nearly identical in performance, with a 0-0.2% delta with the RTX 4070 GDDR6X. In the game tests, performance varies by resolution. 1080p has 0-1% performance delta, with the only noteworthy outliers being "Metro Exodus" (extreme preset), where the RTX 4070 GDDR6 loses 4.2%, and "Alan Wake 2," where it loses 2.3%.https://tpucdn.com/img/b3hrzsomzeQEnQP2_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/b3hrzsomzeQEnQP2.jpg)

Samsung is implementing a major workforce realignment to improve operations and increase efficiency. According to a report from Reuters, Samsung has instructed its global subsidiaries to reduce marketing and sales staff by 15% and management personnel by 30% by the end of this year. Of its 267,800 employees worldwide, 147,000 are based overseas, and Samsung's global layoff plan is expected to impact all regions, including Europe, Asia, the Americas, and Africa. The exact motivation behind the layoffs is unclear; one source cites the slowdown in global demand for tech products as a factor, while another suggests Samsung is aiming to increase profits by cutting costs.

Dell is also implementing significant measures, with plans to lay off at least 12,500 employees, approximately 10% of its total workforce. Dell is striving to become "leaner" by overhauling its sales divisions and adopting paperless operations with the help of AI. Job cuts are expected to continue overseas, with U.S. staff members expecting their turn soon. Dell has declined to confirm any numbers regarding the layoffs, particularly those concerning their employees.https://tpucdn.com/img/lOjvFRGSxqmzF56J_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/lOjvFRGSxqmzF56J.jpg)

Synnex Technology International is a major Hong Kong-based distributor of PC components, which also retails directly. PC enthusiasts in Hong Kong have been trying to avail replacements for their Intel Core i9-14900K processors under Intel's laid down procedure, including extended warranties (https://www.techpowerup.com/325155/intel-extends-warranty-by-two-years-for-13th-and-14th-generation-processors-amid-crashing-concerns) for the processor, which has been hit by the notorious physical degradation issue. A customer sent in their i9-14900K to find that they are not getting a replacement chip, because Synnex ran out of chips to send customers as replacements.

The retailer sent in a template response that the chip sent by the customer cannot be repaired or replaced, but the customer can avail a cash refund of HKD $4,200 (around $540), which is close to the street price of the processor. The processor itself has been running out of stock in many places, partly because inventory in the channel is being directed toward honoring warranty claims. The only practical way to honor a processor warranty claim is replacement, since there is very little that can be repaired by a distributor (except maybe the stock cooler). HKEPC reports that the user took Synnex up on its offer for refund, sold everything in their machine except the SSD, and is now planning to build a new machine based on the Ryzen 9 9950X.https://tpucdn.com/img/YVd03cS9giz5vmO2_thm.jpg (https://www.techpowerup.com/img/YVd03cS9giz5vmO2.jpg)
