All that changes when freakish monsters attack the town and start wreaking havoc. A strange creature calling himself Sirei appears and offers Takumi the power to protect those he holds dear... All he has to do is stab himself in the chest! The next thing he knows, Takumi is in Last Defense Academy, a school in the middle of nowhere surrounded by a wall of otherworldly flames. He and 14 other students have been drafted into the Special Defense Unit, a team tasked with keeping the school safe for the next 100 days. How much are they willing to sacrifice to take back their normal lives and save the world from the grotesque school invaders?[Only registered and activated users can see links.

As revealed during a [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...], Intel leadership mentioned that "external clients are getting their ASICs designs tested." The company's foundry business is working towards the [Only registered and activated users can see links.

According to Ctee Taiwan, Team Blue's foundry service has submitted test subjects to the likes of NVIDIA, Broadcom and Faraday Technology. The latter organization has (reportedly) disclosed that the 18A platform tape-out was completed last October—since then, received samples have been "successfully connected." Industry moles believe that NVIDIA and Broadcom are in the middle of conducting manufacturing tests. Additional whispers suggest the delivery of 18A prototypes chez IBM and several other unnamed partner companies. Insiders have indicated impressive/good "verification results." Contrary to [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...], Ctee has picked up on insider chatter about Intel's next-gen Nova Lake compute tile design being "not entirely outsourced."

On April 15, NVIDIA revealed its "coming soon + starting at $299" [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] graphics card model—along with the freshly launched GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB and 8 GB cards. Not long after that, board partners [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]. To the surprise of many, Team Green's mid-month PR material seemed to place a lot of emphasis on the cheapest offering. VideoCardz reckons that public demand for launch day GeForce RTX 5060 cards is not expected to reach high levels, but NVIDIA seems to be readying a simultaneous retail release and lifting of review embargoes. According to inside track information, May 19 appears to be the big day of choice.

Clever day one maneuvering could be in play—VideoCardz outlined a potential strategy: "this approach means customers may purchase the card without prior access to independent performance data. In other words, gamers will have to rely on NVIDIA's official benchmarks, unless they want to risk not being able to buy the card at MSRP." Team Green's mid-April "desktop family" marketing piece did tease the GeForce RTX 5060's Tensor and RT Core performance (respectively): 614 AI TOPs and 58 TFLOPS—versus RTX 5060 Ti's 750 AI TOPS, and 72 TFLOPS. Insider whispers suggest that AMD is readying rival hardware for release [Only registered and activated users can see links.

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] marks the return of the narrative-driven, Braking Point, an epic Formula 1 blockbuster mode set to excite players new and old when the game releases on May 30 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The fictional tale puts you right into the action, as the fate and destiny of the characters you control rests in your racing-gloved hands. So, with this being the latest instalment in the Braking Point story, how did we get here?

The Story So Far
While having roots back to F1 2019, Braking Point's debut in F1 2021 offered players the opportunity to adopt the role of Aiden Jackson, an F1 rookie looking to make a name for himself in the sport. He was met with many challenges along the way, including a ruthless rival, Devon Butler, a driver who would stop at nothing to succeed. In F1 23's instalment, which focused on the 2022 and 2023 seasons and the introduction of fictional team Konnersport, familiar faces returned alongside new protagonist Callie Mayer, the first woman to win the F2 Championship. The once infamous Devon Butler has his perspective of the sport turned upside down, opening up a spot for Callie's break into F1.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

GALAX has deliberated over the fine-tuning of its pedigree custom [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] design throughout early 2025—[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] we heard about an imminent retail release of the Chinese manufacturer's finalized Hall of Fame (HOF) Extreme Overclock (XOC) Limited Edition card. According to the latest reports, the brand has announced the availability of its ultra-premium option; featuring the very best pre-binned GB202 GPU dies and GDDR7 memory modules. Apparently reserved for upper echelon buyers; with a 29,999 RMB (~$4117 USD) launch price tag.

In parallel, GALAX seems to be launching two "lesser" variants—as reported by VideoCardz, the "OC LAB Plus-X" (~$3595 USD) and "OC LAB" (~$3582 USD) SKUs make do with [Only registered and activated users can see links.

Hyper Light Breaker received [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...], largely for clunky combat, insubstantial progression, and a lack of world-building. Some community feedback is to be expected, since Hyper Light Breaker is still in Steam Early Access, but the community backlash was unexpected, given the success that the game's predecessor, Hyper Light Drifter, garnered. The [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] aimed at addressing much of the criticism has just dropped on Steam, and many of the changes seem to be welcome by the community.

Some of the biggest changes to Hyper Light Breaker introduced in the Buried Below update include changes to character progression, weapon synergies, and the overall gameplay loop itself. Heart Machine also introduced a new playable character, Rondo, two new melee weapons, a new mini boss—a Crown called Maw—with its own player perks, and new areas for players to explore. Heart Machine also says it has streamlined the game's onboarding process, and that the changes to the game should make the game easier to get into for new players but more difficult to master. In terms of the gameplay loop, the new update reduces player lives from four per run to one per run, making things much less forgiving, however, players will also now always spawn in one of two locations, making the start of a new run more predictable. There are also a number of improvements to the enemy AI that should make encounters and battles somewhat more challenging and interesting. Players are also locked to a single character and companion for the duration of each run, which is a substantial change from the previous system which allowed players to switch characters and Sycoms mid-run. There are a number of other balance patches and new additions, which you can read about in the full patch notes below. Overall, judging from the comments in the Steam Community discussion under the update patch notes, players seem to be tentatively excited about the majority of the changes to the gameplay loop, although some concerns remain.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

As disclosed in a new press release—issued by the US Commerce Department—TSMC's North American operation has started another expansion. Last month, Taiwan's leading chip foundry committed a substantial $100 billion investment—eventually leading to a greater production footprint in Phoenix, Arizona. Reports suggest that ground has already been broken, in a low-key manner—as of yesterday (April 29)—at a planned third location, only hours after TSMC's receiving of permits—aka a "thumbs up" from the US government. According to local news outlets, key administrative representatives were in attendance to witness the initiation of construction work. TSMC's third plant is destined to pump out cutting-edge products via a 2 nm (N2) process technology, with Apple, NVIDIA and [Only registered and activated users can see links.

Recent evidence has emerged that Ubisoft may indeed be planning to—or may have been planning to—launch multiplayer game modes for Assassin's Creed Shadows. An [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] the Assassin's Creed Shadows website's Boostrap files and found several mentions of Multiplayer and PVP maps and training areas in the files. It may, thus, be the case that the introduction of the new Animus Hub may have been a move to facilitate multiplayer gameplay.

That said, Ubisoft recently hosted an Assassin's Creed Shadows 1 Year Roadmap on YouTube, and there was no direct mention of multiplayer gameplay in the roadmap. Ubisoft did, however, hint at the addition of what it called Special Collaborations in the regular content section and new Animus content coming in the near future. [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] indicated that the multiplayer modes in AC Shadows would feature a co-op mode, akin to Assassin's Creed Unity, but the new leaks indicate that Ubisoft may be planning a PVP mode, as well, which would make it much more like Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. It's also possible that the mention of multiplayer in the site files is just left-over information from before the launch of Assassin's Creed Shadows, and Ubisoft has scrapped the idea altogether.

Hey everyone! Here we are announcing [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]. It's a game. There's a lot of cool stuff in it. We could tell you all about it, but that's a lot of work. So you should stop reading and [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]. In case you've decided to keep reading (why??) let's take a look at some of the things in Mycopunk that we're most excited about. Mycopunk was born from our desire for a fun (FUN) co-op FPS that makes players want to keep coming back without any of that FOMO shit. This mostly manifested in three ways: shooting stuff is fun, progression is interesting, and [REDACTED].

Weapons
If you've played the demo you'll know your weapons feel good to shoot and carving up enemies is fun. If you disagree, come tell us to our face in the Mycopunk discord. Most of us don't bite. Some weapons are what you'd expect. The SMG is an SMG. It shoots bullets. But from the beginning we wanted to have some really weird, cool ass weapons. One of our favorites is the Swarm Launcher—it launches a swarm (no way) of pellets that hover above the ground and will dive down on enemies when you release the trigger. Some of the Swarm Launcher's upgrades let it do some really cool stuff, but we'll get to that later. We have four guns for you to play around with in this demo, and on release you'll have many more.

PC hardware watchers continue to pore over official AMD repositories and adjacent databases, in the hopes of finding unannounced next-gen technologies. Olrak29 and InstLatX64 have presented their latest Team Red-related findings; apparently reaching across futuristic desktop, mobile, and workstation product families. As outlined and interpreted by VideoCardz, several of these next-gen branches are already somewhat "known" properties—namely AMD's allegedly Zen 5-based Ryzen Threadripper "Shimada Peak" 9000WX (workstation) processor series. Following almost two years of leaks, an official introduction is [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]. The [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] has turned up again; now "fully" linked to the AM5 socket platform (not a big surprise). The two leakers have also uncovered another rumored AM5-bound product lineup—"Grado" chips could be based on existing "Granite Ridge" foundations, but elevated to commercial/enterprise levels. These speculated basic/entry-level "EPYC 4005" processors are floated as natural successors to currently available [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] (related to Ryzen 7000 "Raphael" architecture).

Olrak29 and InstLatX64 have also found multiple mysterious FP8 socket-related Ryzen AI Mobile SoCs. "Krackan2" could be a cheaper refresh of current "Krackan Point" APUs—Tom's Hardware proposes smaller designs that sport fewer cores, and not configured with NPUs. Kepler_L2 has weighed in on the matter of three listed "Gorgon Point" IPs—he reckons that the third variant ("Gorgon Point3") will be a spin-off (aka refresh) of a "Krackan2" design. As suggested by insider knowledge, Team Red's [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] points to "Gorgon Point" being the sequel to "Strix Point." An FF5-based "Soundwave" processor design has appeared alongside the aforementioned futuristic Ryzen AI Mobile chipsets—industry whispers propose that AMD will be leveraging Arm architecture within a lower product tier. InstLatX64 pulled additional compelling information from AMD's Technical Information Portal—providing further insight into Ryzen AI "[Only registered and activated users can see links.

Intel is exploring a new way to cool its hottest chips by weaving tiny water channels into the processor package itself. At its Foundry Direct Connect showcase, via [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...], the company revealed working prototypes for LGA desktop CPUs, BGA servers, and AI modules. Rather than flood the bare silicon, a slim copper block sits on top of the package, its microchannels precisely etched to carry coolant directly over the hottest areas. Intel engineers cooled Core Ultra desktop chips and high-end Xeon processors in live demonstrations. The system moves standard liquid-cooling fluid through those channels at a rate fast enough to whisk away up to 1,000 watts of heat. In the lab, that level of thermal performance isn't standard for everyday PC use, but it matches the demands of AI training, scientific computing, and professional workstations.

This design stands out because of its attention to every layer between the chip and the coolant. Intel carefully controls the thickness of the silicon die, the solder or liquid-metal thermal interface material, the integrated heat spreader, and the water block itself. By reducing or removing traditional barriers, thermal resistance falls, and engineers report roughly 20% better cooling than a standard water block mounted on a delidded die. Those copper blocks measure only a few millimeters in height yet still deliver strong flow rates. During chip layout, teams space out power-hungry blocks or flag-tight clusters so the cooling channels can target critical hotspots. This co-design of package and cooler goes much deeper than any off-the-shelf solution. While the basic research dates back nearly two decades, Intel has been refining the method for years. Still, with processors growing more powerful and densely packed, package-level liquid cooling could move from laboratory demo to essential tool for data centers and enthusiast rigs.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

Last Saturday, Scythe Group announced the closure of its European branch. This followed mid-April reports of unusually low stock numbers in Germany—at the time, ComputerBase.de and its community highlighted the complete absence of the manufacturer's flagship Mugen 6 CPU air cooler at regional retail outlets. The site published an investigative article on April 22; presenting an important Consumer Protection Forum filing. Apparently "economic difficulties" have warranted the initiation of "preliminary insolvency proceedings"—as a result, Scythe EU GmbH faced an uncertain future.
