TechPowerUP NEWS

An unlucky owner of a [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] 16 GB graphics card has reported a baffling instance of thermal gel leakage. A forum post—titled: "5080 oh my god thermal problem"—on the Quasar Zone BBS alerted the wider world to this bizarre fault. The South Korean MMORPG enthusiast described circumstances up until the point of critical liquefaction: "it's been exactly a month since I bought it. I use it for (Blizzard's) World of Warcraft. Two hours of use per day. I set up the card with a riser kit. Thermal (material) is crawling out?!" Early 2025 press coverage has largely focused on other types of unwanted high temperature events involving GeForce RTX 50-series cards, but the seeping out of "server-grade thermal conductive gel" compound is something new. As reported by several PC hardware news outlets, GIGABYTE has utilized fancy thermal conductive gel within flagship SKUs—instead of traditional/conventional thermal pads. This gel was placed over the card's VRAM and MOSFET sections; following fairly light usage (as described above) some of this material started to head down—getting ever closer to the unit's PCIe interface.

Assisted by the AORUS RTX 5080 MASTER ICE's vertical orientation, the (apparently) highly deformable, but non-fluid thermal gel was susceptible to the effects of gravity. JC Hyun System Co., Ltd.—GIGABYTE's official domestic importer (for South Korea)—weighed in with a separate bulletin: "we are aware of the thermal gel issue with the GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 50 series, which was first posted on Quasar Zone—(we) are currently discussing the thermal gel issue with GIGABYTE HQ and future customer service regulations. In addition, we sincerely apologize for the confusion caused to many customers who love and use GIGABYTE products due to inaccurate guidance provided to customers who received the products due to unclear customer service regulations regarding the issue that occurred this time. Lastly, when the manufacturer's customer service policy regarding this thermal gel issue is finalized, we will also forward the service policy to CS Innovation so that it can be processed smoothly in accordance with the service policy. We will also provide information through a separate post so that more customers can be aware of the information." As mentioned by Notebookcheck, GIGABYTE uses this special thermal gel solution on other highly expensive custom: "RTX 50-series cards like the GeForce RTX 5090 XTREME WATERFORCE 32G, RTX 5090 MASTER ICE, RTX 5070 Ti MASTER, and others."[Only registered and activated users can see links.

Looking back into the future
As our internal Liquid Engine, that the first game was created on, is no longer in development, we've been looking for other ways to further expand upon Frostpunk for years now. When working on Frostpunk 2 in Unreal Engine 5, the limitations of our own Engine became that much more apparent, but it also made us realize we could finally go back to when it all began—the moment the Great Storm came over New London in 1886. With that in mind, we're extremely excited to announce that we've already started development on a new Frostpunk project—one that recreates the experience of the original game in UE. That is also why we went for [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...].

LG Electronics Inc. (LG) today announced consolidated revenue of KRW 22.74 trillion and operating profit of KRW 1.26 trillion for the first quarter of 2025. This marks the highest first-quarter revenue in the company's history and the sixth consecutive year in which operating profit surpassed KRW 1 trillion during the first quarter. Strong performance was driven by qualitative growth across key business areas, especially in B2B, non-hardware segments (such as subscriptions and webOS platform) and direct-to-consumer (D2C) sales.

Vehicle solutions and heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) - both critical to LG's B2B strategy and future growth - delivered record-breaking quarterly revenue and operating profit. Combined operating profit from the Vehicle Solution Company and Eco Solution Company increased 37.2 percent year-over-year, with revenue climbing 12.3 percent.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

As a GPU supply chain gets regularly updated, NVIDIA quietly added a new memory partner to its GeForce RTX 50 series lineup, bringing SK Hynix on board alongside Samsung for GDDR7 modules. Early mentions suggested that SK Hynix memory would appear on standard RTX 5070 cards. Still, the first sightings were on RTX 5070 Ti models, especially in China, where these cards have arrived ahead of other regions. Users on Chiphell and Baidu, verifying their GPUs with GPU-Z, discovered that the SK Hynix chips, which officially run at 28 Gbps, can be safely overclocked to 34 Gbps. This shows that switching to a second supplier does not hurt performance or overclocking headroom, so enthusiasts can expect the same headroom they've enjoyed with Samsung-sourced modules.

That said, some owners have encountered an obstacle when cross-flashing BIOS files with SKUs that use Samsung memory. Flashing an RTX 5070 Ti BIOS from a Samsung-equipped card onto one built with SK Hynix memory sometimes prevents the GPU from booting. However, dual-BIOS designs let users switch back to factory firmware and restore normal operation without too much fuss. As [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...], TechPowerUp's BIOS database indicates that current firmware versions from various board partners already include support for GDDR7 modules from Samsung, SK Hynix, and even Micron. This suggests that these flashing issues aren't simply a matter of unrecognized memory. It could be related to board-specific power settings or other configuration quirks, with every GPU maker designing their boards differently, yielding possible errors if the firmware is swapped. Since SK Hynix-based cards run fine out of the box, most users won't have any reason to flash different firmware.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

DeepSeek, a company that took the AI world by storm with its R1 model, is preparing a new and reportedly much improved DeepSeek R2 model release, according to a well-known AI insider [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]. Powered by Huawei's Ascend 910B chip clusters, a possible Huawei Atlas 900, and DeepSeek's in-house distributed training framework, R2 pushes these accelerators to an impressive 82% utilization, translating to 512 PetaFLOPS of FP16 performance—half an exaFLOP in computing power. According to Huawei lab data, that's roughly 91% of what NVIDIA's older A100 clusters deliver, yet DeepSeek claims it cuts per-unit training costs by a remarkable 97.3%. Behind DeepSeek R2 is a carefully cultivated ecosystem of partners. Tuowei Information, a leading OEM in the Ascend family, manages over half of DeepSeek's supercomputing hardware orders, while Sugon provides liquid-cooled server racks capable of handling up to 40 kW per unit. To keep power consumption in check, Innolight's silicon-photonics transceivers shave off another 35% compared to traditional solutions.

Geographically, operations are split across major hubs: Runjian Shares runs the South China supercomputing center under contracts exceeding ¥5 billion annually, and Zhongbei Communications maintains a 1,500-PetaFLOP reserve in the Northwest for peak demands. On the software side, DeepSeek R2 already supports private deployment and fine-tuning, powering smart-city initiatives in 15 provinces through the Yun Sai Zhilian platform. North China's node, overseen by Hongbo Shares' Yingbo Digital, adds another 3,000 PetaFLOPS to the mix. If computing power is scarce, Huawei is ready to deploy its [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...], which is positioned as a domestic alternative to NVIDIA's GB200 NVL72. It features 384 Ascend 910C accelerators to achieve 1.7× the overall petaFLOPS and 3.6× the total HBM capacity of the NVL72 cluster—yet it lags significantly in per-chip performance and consumes nearly four times more power. Nonetheless, the R2 model launch is expected to come smoothly online, and we are waiting for the official launch and benchmarks to see its performance.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

Rumors about the recent cancelation of an unannounced Blade Runner project; following the alleged completion of a pre-production phase at Supermassive Games. Insider Gaming's "exclusive" article proposes that the UK-based computer game development studio had started work on a "character focused, cinematic, action adventure" around September 2024. An inside source disclosed a "Blade Runner: Time To Live" title, and a futuristic "New Zurich" setting—in 2065. The online publication has acquired "internal company documents" that apparently outlined a 10-12 hour single player campaign experience and a "compelling story blending the philosophical themes of Blade Runner, with kinetic action-adventure gameplay." Veteran members of Supermassive's "[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]" core dev team were reportedly involved in the IP's early-stage production cycle.

Insider Gaming outlined a surprising mix of internal details—sourced from their industry mole—suggesting that this project is/was not related to Alcon Interactive Group and Annapurna Interactive's [Only registered and activated users can see links.

The report described some of Supermassive's key goals: "a full release was planned for September 2027 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and the [Only registered and activated users can see links.

Team, (yesterday) we reported our [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]. It was a step in the right direction as we delivered revenue, gross margin and EPS (earnings per share) above our guidance, driven by Dave and Michelle's leadership. I want to thank them both, and all of you, for the good execution. We need to build on this progress—and it won't be easy. We are navigating an increasingly volatile and uncertain macroeconomic environment, which is reflected in our Q2 outlook. On top of that, there are many areas where we must improve. We need to confront our challenges head-on and take swift actions to get back on track. As I have said, this starts by revamping our culture. The feedback I have received from our customers and many of you has been consistent. We are seen as too slow, too complex and too set in our ways—and we need to change. Our flatter Executive Team (ET) structure that I shared last week was a first step. The next step is to drive greater simplicity, speed and collaboration across the entire company. To achieve these objectives, today I am announcing some important changes.

Becoming an Engineering-Focused Company
We need to get back to our roots and empower our engineers. That's why I elevated our core engineering functions to the ET. And many of the changes we will be driving are designed to make engineers more productive by removing burdensome workflows and processes that slow down the pace of innovation. To make necessary investments in our engineering talent and technology roadmaps, we need to find new ways to reduce our costs. While we have taken significant actions in the last year, our current cost structure is still well above competitive benchmarks. With that in mind, we have reduced our operating expense and capital spending targets going forward, which I will discuss during our investor call this afternoon.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

OKI Circuit Technology, the OKI Group printed circuit board (PCB) company, has successfully developed 124-layer PCB technology for wafer inspection equipment designed for next-generation high bandwidth memory, such as HBM mounted on AI semiconductors. This is a roughly 15% increase in the number of layers over conventional 108-layer designs. OTC is seeking to establish mass production technology by October 2025 at its Joetsu Plant in Joetsu City, Niigata Prefecture, which has a proven track record and advanced development and production capabilities in the field of high multilayer, high-precision, large-format PCBs for semiconductor inspection equipment.

AI processing requires the transmission of vast data volumes between graphics processing unit (GPU) semiconductors and memory. As semiconductor performance increases, the memory installed is also required to have high-speed, high-frequency, and high-density data transfer capabilities. HBM features a stacked DRAM structure, requiring technology capable of fabricating wafers even more thinly and precisely. This configuration also requires that the PCBs used in inspection equipment meet even higher levels of performance and quality.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

GuliKit showcased "Elves 2" prototype controllers at Gamescom 2024; last summer's product booth—in Cologne, Germany—also displayed an intriguing "Libra MAX" model. Enthusiasts have demanded more third-party options that sport "symmetrical" control layouts with non-PlayStation-esque ergonomic designs. GuliKit's "[Only registered and activated users can see links.

Thankfully, GuliKit's social media account has started to promote an upcoming—May—arrival of their Elves 2 Pro white and black controller models—advertised as featuring "retro looks" combined with "pro performance." At the time of writing, the manufacturer has not published a dedicated product page on its official website. Teaser material lists the usual mod cons: Hall Effect sticks ([Only registered and activated users can see links.
