Steam Switches to the US Dollar for its Turkiye and Argentina Stores
Valve Software today announced that the Steam store will switch to the US Dollar as currency for Turkiye and Argentina. The stores for both countries have implemented this change as of November 20. The reason cited for the change is the high degree of volatility of the local currencies in the two markets, which is causing game developers to struggle to find the right pricing for their games. Gamers from other regions have been using VPNs to shop from these countries as the volatile exchange rates would mean low pricing. Those with Steam Wallet balances in the local currencies from these two markets will see their wallet balances convert to US Dollars at the day's exchange rate.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

(PR) EK-Pro Line Gets New Multiport 360 and 480 mm Radiators
EK, the premium liquid cooling gear manufacturer, is expanding the EK-Pro Line with a radiator portfolio. The EK-Pro Radiator P360 Multiport - Black and EK-Pro Radiator P480 Multiport - Black feature a multiport design for ease of use and convenience in tube routing tubes. They come with a medium, 45 mm thickness, and 18 FPI fin density.
The EK-Pro P Series Radiators
The new EK-Pro Radiator P Series comes in two sizes - 360 mm and 480 mm. With a thickness of 45 mm, the EK-Pro P Series radiators are the absolute all-rounders for low noise and high performance across the entire fan operational range. These radiators are 120 mm wide, ensuring compatibility with the widest portfolio of PC cases. They are equipped with four G1/4" threaded connection ports to ensure easier tube routing in most scenarios. The fourteen 2 mm-wide copper tubes across the entire radiator length assure optimal coolant flow, putting no stress on your cooling loop. High-grade non-louvered copper fins with 18 FPI density provide the best balance between thermal transfer and air resistance, enabling optimal performance even at low-speed fan operation. To maximize cooling performance, the radiators can be used in a Push/Pull setup.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

Intel Core Ultra 7 155H iGPU Outperforms AMD Radeon 780M, Comes Close to Desktop Intel Arc A380
Intel is slowly preparing to launch its next-generation Meteor Lake mobile processor family, dropping the Core i brand name in favor of Core Ultra. Today, we are witnessing some [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] with the latest leak of the Core Ultra 7 155H processor, boasting an integrated Arc GPU featuring 8 Xe-Cores—the complete configuration expected in the GPU tile. This tile is also projected to be a part of the more potent Core 9 Ultra 185H CPU. The Intel Core Ultra 7 155H processor has been benchmarked in the new ASUS Zenbook 14, which houses a 16-core and 22-thread hybrid CPU configuration capable of boosting up to 4.8 GHz. Paired with 32 GB of memory, the configuration was well equipped to supply CPU and GPU with sufficient memory space.
Perhaps the most interesting information from the submission was the OpenCL score of the GPU. Clocking in at 33948 points in Geekbench v6, the GPU is running over AMD's Radeon 780M GPU found in APU solutions like AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS and Ryzen 9 7940U, which scored 30585 and 27345 points in the same benchmark, respectively. The GPU tile is millimeters away from closing the gap between itself and the desktop Intel Arc A380 discrete GPU, which scored 37105 points for less than a 10% difference. The Xe-LPG GPU version is bringing some interesting performance points for the integrated GPU platform, which means that Intel's Meteor Lake SKUs will bring more performance/watt than ever.[Only registered and activated users can see links.
