Amazon Canada has listed two new XFX Magnetic Air Edition designs, within the last day or so—as discovered by the VideoCardz overwatch. Mid-way through last week, the first signs of these premium customized AMD RDNA 4 graphics cards [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]; courtesy of another Canadian leak. Within the same timeframe, XFX registered its "[Only registered and activated users can see links.

Amazon.ca's two pre-order listings—likely prematurely published by accident—provide a first look at XFX's revised "Magnetic Air" modular fan system. The [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] and White Editions appear to sport plenty of loud RGB lighting zones—contrasting greatly, when compared to [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...].

XFX's standard MERCURY Radeon RX 9070 XT OC Magnetic Air Edition seems to visually match with the manufacturer's [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]. TechPowerUp handled this powered-off unit at last month's trade event, alongside a "premium white" sample. Based on a leak—[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]—the pale candidate could be an XFX SWIFT model. Product and packaging imagery for Radeon RX 9070 (non-XT) SWIFT and QUICKSILVER emerged online, allegedly sourced from Amazon South Korea. Returning to XFX's highly-anticipated top-tier Magnetic Air options; price points of CAD$1438.03 (black) and CAD$1277.51 (white) are presently displayed on Amazon Canada. VideoCardz reckons that [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] will occur up until release day—both third-party listings (Fennec, Inc) mention the exact same release date: March 6. Base GPU clock speed is set at 1870 GHz, while the card's boost capability takes matters up to 3100 MHz—possibly aligning with numbers generated by an [Only registered and activated users can see links.

Numemory has introduced the NM101, a 64 Gb storage-class memory module that uses technology similar to Intel's now-discontinued Optane architecture. The device implements phase-change memory and crossbar technology in a 3D selector-only memory structure, matching Optane's 3200 MT/s transfer rate specification. The technical architecture diverges from Intel's implementation by using a single selector in its cross-point structure rather than the dual-selector approach of 3D XPoint memory. Operating at 1.2 V with an X8 bus width, the NM101 uses 3D stacking to achieve claimed performance metrics of 10x faster read/write speeds than NAND flash. Xincun Technology, which established the Numemory division in Wuhan in 2022, holds 273 patents related to the technology, including 60 international and 213 Chinese patents. The company's R&D team of 144 engineers has developed the architecture since 2019, three years before Intel ended its Optane program.

Production plans specify an initial manufacturing target of 10,000 units monthly by the end of 2025. Guao Technology has committed ¥10 billion to establish production facilities in Zhejiang province, with additional funding from the Anji county government. The NM101's operating temperature range spans 0-70°C, suitable for standard data center environments. While the device's specifications suggest the potential for data center deployment, specific IOPS and latency metrics remain unpublished. Initial production will serve domestic Chinese servers and storage manufacturers. The technology's viability in mass production remains to be demonstrated, particularly given the manufacturing challenges that contributed to Optane's market exit. The Chinese internal market is massive, so serving only domestic companies could be enough for Numemory at the beginning. If the company continues development, worldwide expansion could pick up where Optane stopped.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

Just when you thought you'd seen everything, a Taobao seller has unleashed what might be the most over-engineered power connector solution yet: a 16-pin 12VHPWR power adapter complete with its own cooling fan and real-time monitoring display. Yes, you read that right—we're now actively cooling power connectors. The $30 adapter appears as manufacturers continue struggling with melting cable problems on NVIDIA's RTX 4090 series, despite the company's claims of resolving the issue. The adapter includes an LCD screen showing real-time temperature and power consumption readings, while its 180-degree design prevents sharp cable bends that are often blamed for connection problems. However, unlike more comprehensive solutions proposed by engineering experts, it doesn't address the fundamental issue of uneven power distribution across the connector's 12 power wires.

The adapter works with RTX 4090, 4080, and 4070 graphics cards. Still, it shouldn't be used with newer RTX 50 series cards, as the sales listing doesn't mention any GeForce RTX 50 series compatibility, and the latest "Blackwell" GPU design uses an updated 12V-2x6 power connector, which still appears riddled with issues. While adding a fan to a power connector may seem excessive, an intriguing possibility is that we may soon find water-cooler power connectors for the newer 12V-2x6, so users can prevent their $2000 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 GPUs from melting their power connectors. Irony aside, power delivery safety is a growing concern, and no clear resolution exists. NVIDIA has [Only registered and activated users can see links.

Over the past three weeks, press outlets and the buying public have levelled heavy criticism at NVIDIA board partners. The launches of three GeForce RTX 50-series "Blackwell" GPUs have—so far—been problematic; based on news reports and community feedback. Prior to release (on February 20), VideoCardz anticipated major price fluctuations for an all-custom portfolio of [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] graphics cards. The publication did not hold back with its [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]; one of Team Green's big time AIBs. Only a small selection of baseline MSRP ($749) conformant models were available on day one, and VideoCardz posited that manufacturers would implement price hikes soon after launch. A [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] continues their investigation into a [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...], as well as so-called "fake promotions."

VideoCardz repeated its belief that ASUS will jack-up the asking price for its [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] model. When looking at Newegg's listing of baseline MSRP cards, the intrepid investigator stumbled up another notable absence: "we wrote three articles about the ASUS RTX 5070 Ti PRIME model not being listed as an MSRP card by retailers, which finally led ASUS to intervene (most likely for a limited time) to sell this card at the promised price. What we can immediately notice is the lack of the VENTUS 3X model from MSI, which was basically 90% of the MSRP card review coverage yesterday, as NVIDIA had no Founders Edition card for this launch and relied on board partners. In fact, the [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] is not even included in the official launch, meaning that the card you saw yesterday in reviews is simply not available anywhere." It should be noted that TechPowerUp received an [Only registered and activated users can see links.

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] obtained AMD Radeon RX 9070 series specifications, which appear to be the official final configurations of the upcoming RDNA 4 GPUs. As we previously expected, the lineup consists of two models based on the Navi 48 GPU, which integrates 53.9 billion transistors on a 357 mm² die using a 4 nm (N5) process from TSMC. Both the RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 utilize identical memory configurations: 16 GB of GDDR6 memory running at 20 Gbps across a 256-bit bus, delivering 640 GB/s bandwidth. Each card implements 64 MB of 3rd Generation Infinity Cache and supports PCIe 5.0 x16 interface standards. The RX 9070 XT features 64 RDNA 4 Compute Units, equating to 4096 Stream Processors, 64 Ray Accelerators, and 128 AI Accelerators. It operates at a 2400 MHz game clock and 2970 MHz boost clock, providing 48.7 TFLOPS of single-precision FP32 compute performance.

Power requirements include a [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] and a recommended 750 W power supply. The standard RX 9070 reduces specifications to 56 Compute Units (3584 Stream Processors), 56 Ray Accelerators, and 112 AI Accelerators. Clock speeds decrease to 2070 MHz game clock and 2540 MHz boost clock, with correspondingly lower power requirements of 220 W TBP and a recommended 650 W power supply. Since both SKUs use the same Navi 48 die, the separation between them is likely better binning for the XT version, and lower bins end up for the non-XT version. Both models support HDMI 2.1b and DisplayPort 2.1a UHBR13.5 outputs. AMD has confirmed the cards will launch exclusively through board partners with no reference designs planned and that the official unveiling will be in March. Earlier rumors have suggested a $699 price tag for the Radeon RX 9070 XT SKU, putting its expected price/performance near NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5070 Ti. AMD notes that 85% of gamers buy cards below $700, which the RDNA 4 series will focus on.[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

TechPowerUp today released the latest version of TechPowerUp GPU-Z, the handy graphics sub-system information, monitoring, and diagnostics utility. Version 2.64.0 comes with support for the upcoming GeForce RTX 5070 graphics card. Support is improved for the upcoming Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070. Among the issues fixed are incorrect TMU/ROP/shader counts displayed for Intel Arc B570; and when a message pops up "This service has been marked for deletion" comes up, a hint has been added which says that restarting the machine solves the problem. GPU-Z no longer checks for PhysX acceleration on non-NVIDIA GPUs, which should speed up startup.

We have an update relevant to the recent Blackwell [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]. On machines with no NVIDIA graphics drivers installed, and an RTX 50-series GPU such as the RTX 5090, RTX 5090D, RTX 5080, or RTX 5070 Ti installed, the ROP count is now shown as "unknown." NVIDIA drivers need to be installed for GPU-Z to read the actual ROP count of the card. This is important, because without drivers, previously, GPU-Z displayed a fallback hardcoded value for ROPs (reference spec), so we changed that to list "unknown" instead, to avoid causing confusion.

AMD is launching new Socket AM4 processor SKUs well into 2025, eight years into the platform's lifecycle. The company just launched six new processor models under the Ryzen 5005G series. These span the Ryzen 7, Ryzen 5, and Ryzen 3 tiers, and are all desktop APUs based on the 7 nm "Cezanne" monolithic silicon that combines up to 8 "Zen 3" CPU cores with an iGPU based on the "Vega" graphics architecture, featuring up to 8 compute units (CU). There's nothing [much] to report about the 5005G series, except that they are iGPU speed bumps of existing SKUs. These are not meant to be confused with the 5000GT series, which were CPU speed-bumps of the chips AMD launched in 2024.

Among the six new SKUs, the top-spec part is the Ryzen 7 5705G, which maxes out the silicon, enabling the full 8-core/16-thread "Zen 3" CPU with 512 KB of L2 cache per core and 16 MB of shared L3 cache; and the iGPU with all 8 CUs. This chip comes with CPU clock speeds of 3.80 GHz base with 4.60 GHz boost, with 2.20 GHz max engine clock for the iGPU. The CPU clock speeds are unchanged compared to the Ryzen 7 5700G, but the iGPU gets a 10% increase in max engine clock. The Ryzen 7 5705GE is an energy efficient variant with 3.20 GHz base and 4.60 GHz boost for the CPU to achieve a 35 W TDP, but the iGPU engine clock gets the same 200 MHz speed bump.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

NVIDIA is preparing a late-March 2025 launch of the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti following its [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]. The card will reportedly come with 16 GB and 8 GB memory variants, much like its predecessor, the RTX 4060 Ti, with the 16 GB variant launching late-March, and the 8 GB variant in April. A Wccftech report sheds light on a few interesting specs of the RTX 5060 Ti. Apparently, the card comes with a total graphics power (TGP) of 180 W, which should make it possible for partners to sell cards with single 8-pin PCIe power connectors. NVIDIA is looking to target the $400 to $500 price segment with the RTX 5060 Ti series, but a lot will depend on how AMD addresses this space with its lean new "Navi 48" silicon that could probably be cut down to create SKUs that square off against the RTX 5060 Ti.

The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, much like the RTX 4060 Ti, will come with a 128-bit wide memory bus, however, NVIDIA will give the GPU a massive upgrade in bandwidth with 28 Gbps GDDR7, giving it 448 GB/s of memory bandwidth, which is a 55% increase over the 288 GB/s that the RTX 4060 Ti has. The GB205 (or GB206?) GPU that the RTX 5060 Ti is based on could implement PCI-Express 5.0, which means that should NVIDIA opt for an 8-lane PCIe host interface to save board costs, the GPU could still enjoy bandwidth comparable to PCI-Express 4.0 x16 on systems with Gen 5 PCIe.[Only registered and activated users can see links.

Samsung aims to create 1,000-layer NAND by 2030 relying on its new "multi-BV" NAND design. [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] reports that this plan involves stacking four wafers to overcome structural limits. Wafer bonding technology plays a crucial role in this progress and Samsung intends to use it to break the 1,000-layer barrier. Samsung Electronics DS division CTO, Song Jae-hyuk, pointed out that wafer bonding allows separate production of peripheral and cell wafers before joining them into one semiconductor. The Bell says this technology will likely appear first in Samsung's 10th-gen NAND (V10), while industry experts think a single wafer can hold about 500 NAND layers when implementing only cell structures. In the past, Samsung has used the COP (Cell on Peripheral) technique, a method that places the peripheral circuit on one wafer, with NAND cells stacked on top. However, as NAND layers grow, the lower peripheral parts face more pressure potentially affecting reliability.

Samsung's plan involves working with China's [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...], which should offer a hybrid bonding patent for V10 NAND. [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] reports that the South Korean tech company will start making its V10 NAND in large quantities in the second half of 2025, with about 420-430 layers. Besides wafer bonding, Samsung adds other technologies to its NAND plan. The Bell points out that cold etching using molybdenum, and other new ideas will start with 400-layer NAND and play a key part in growing to 1,000 layers. Samsung isn't alone in trying to create ultra-high-layer NAND products. Japan's Kioxia also wants to reach this goal through its "multi-stack CBA" (CMOS Bonded to Array) technology. The company's plan is even bolder hoping to sell [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] 3D NAND by 2027.[Only registered and activated users can see links.
