As promised earlier, Capcom has released a new Dragon's Dogma 2 patch for PC and consoles, and while it does not bring any performance improvements to the game, which still lacks NVIDIA DLSS 3 support, it brings some much-needed gameplay tweaks and fixes.

The April 25th Update, as it is called, mostly improves the game's Pawns, allowing users to zoom in on the faces of the Arisen and Pawns, as well as their general behavior and dialogue. The update also adds several fixes, including fixes for issues in escort quests and fighting monsters in town which results in jail time. Capcom did say it also fixed some crashes and freezes in specific circumstances, as well as other miscellaneous bugs, but no further details were given.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

Intel Corporation today reported first-quarter 2024 financial results. "We are making steady progress against our priorities and delivered a solid quarter," said Pat Gelsinger, Intel CEO. "Strong innovation across our client, edge and data center portfolios drove double-digit revenue growth in Intel Products. With Intel 3 in high-volume production, leading-edge semiconductors are being manufactured in the U.S. for the first time in almost a decade and we are on track to regain process leadership next year as we grow Intel Foundry. We are confident in our plans to drive sequential growth throughout the year as we accelerate our AI solutions and maintain our relentless focus on execution, operational discipline and shareholder value creation in a dynamic market."

"Q1 revenue was in line with our expectations, and we delivered non-GAAP EPS above our guidance, driven by better-than-expected gross margins and strong expense discipline," said David Zinsner, Intel CFO. "Our new foundry operating model, which provides greater transparency and accountability, is already driving better decision-making across the business. Looking ahead, we expect to deliver year-over-year revenue and non-GAAP EPS growth in fiscal year 2024, including roughly 200 basis points of full-year gross margin improvement." In the first quarter, the company used $1.2 billion in cash from operations and paid dividends of $0.5 billion.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

After careful consideration over the last year, we at Blizzard have made the decision not to hold BlizzCon in 2024. This decision was not made lightly as BlizzCon remains a very special event for all of us, and we know many of you look forward to it. While we're approaching this year differently and as we have explored different event formats in the past, rest assured that we are just as excited as ever to bring BlizzCon back in future years.

Over the next few months, we'll be sharing more details about our launches coming later this year, including World of Warcraft: The War Within and Diablo IV's first expansion, Vessel of Hatred. To celebrate these upcoming releases and to bring our communities together in new and special ways, we will soon share some exciting plans for other industry trade shows and conventions like Gamescom. We can't wait to tell you more about those plans soon. We're also looking forward to the Overwatch Champions Series' stops at both Dreamhack Dallas and Dreamhack Stockholm. And we're thrilled to be planning multiple, global, in-person events to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Warcraft, which will be held in addition to the in-game celebrations across our Warcraft games throughout 2024. While these events are distinct from BlizzCon, we're harnessing all of our creativity and imagination to ensure that they carry the same spirit of celebration and togetherness.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

Click Here To Register...] the ASTRIA line of coolers earlier this year at the 2024 CES. The ASTRIA 600 leads the pack, being the heaviest model, with the most heat dissipation area from its dual-stack design. Its design involves a nickel-plated copper base, from which six 6 mm-thick copper heat pipes make their way through two aluminium fin-stacks with equal fin-pitch to each other. Both fin-stacks are capped by die-cast metal top-plates with ARGB lighting from 18 LEDs, each. Two 120 mm fans ventilate the fin-stacks.

The fan takes in 4-pin PWM for its main function, turns at speeds ranging between 500 and 1,800 RPM, pushing up to 65 CFM of airflow, at 2.56 mm H₂O static pressure, and up to 26.8 dBA noise.
