Intel Opens Up XeSS 2 to NVIDIA and AMD GPUs with SDK 2.1.0
Intel on Thursday released the XeSS 2 SDK version 2.1.0, with which it announced support for non-Intel GPUs. This would be any GPU that supports Shader Model 6.4, which are GeForce GTX 10-series "Pascal" or newer from NVIDIA, and Radeon RX 5000 RDNA from AMD, or newer. The update opens up not just super resolution (XeSS SR), but also frame generation (XeSS FG) and low latency (XeLL), however, using XeLL requires XeSS FG to be enabled, it cannot be exclusively used.
The release of XeSS 2 SDK would make it possible for game developers to update their binaries to support XeSS 2, and expose the feature-set to even non-Intel GPUs. At a hardware-level, XeSS 2 would rely on DP4a compute to run its super resolution and frame generation models. Only on Intel Arc "Alchemist" or "Battlemage" GPUs will the technology leverage XMX accelerators.

(PR) Fujitsu Starts Official Development of Plus-10,000-Qubit Supercon
- Fujitsu today announced that it has started research and development towards a superconducting quantum computer with a capacity exceeding 10,000 qubits. Construction is slated for completion in fiscal 2030. The new superconducting quantum computer will operate with 250 logical qubits and will utilize Fujitsu's innovative "STAR architecture," an early-stage fault-tolerant quantum computing (early-FTQC) architecture also developed by the company. Fujitsu aims to make practical quantum computing possible, particularly in areas like materials science where complex simulations can unlock ground breaking discoveries, and to this end will focus on advancing key scaling technologies across various technical domains.
As part of this effort, Fujitsu has been selected as an implementing party for the "Research and Development Project of the Enhanced Infrastructures for Post-5G Information and Communication Systems" publicly solicited by the NEDO (New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization). Fujitsu will be contributing to the thematic area of advancing the development of quantum computers towards industrialization. The project will be promoted through joint research with Japan's National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) and RIKEN, and will run until fiscal year 2027.

Lenovo Legion Go 2 Appears in Early Review and Disassembly Video, Stom
Hot on the heels of the Lenovo Legion Go 2 showing up on Chinese secondhand marketplaces, the upcoming Ryzen Z2 Extreme-powered device has made it into the hands of another reviewer who compared its performance to that of the MSI Claw A8 powered by the same APU. Surprisingly, the Legion device manages to outperform the MSI handheld, despite having the same CPU and iGPU specifications. According to the reviewer, the difference in performance comes down to the ability to cool the Ryzen CPU cores and AMD Radeon 890M inside these machines, since both were tested after reaching a thermal steady state, and the tester mentions that the Claw was overheating, while the Legion Go 2 managed to keep temperatures in the 70s.
The reviewer, Lines Tech on YouTube, tested the handheld gaming PCs in Shadow of the Tomb Raider, and the Lenovo Legion Go 2 averaged 49 FPS, while the comparable MSI Claw device managed an average of 44 FPS—a whole 10% slower than the Legion Go 2. These tests were seemingly conducted at 1080p with Frame Generation and other AMD FidelityFX features disabled. It should also be noted that the Legion Go 2 has 8 GB more RAM, which might be helping the iGPU significantly, especially if VRAM allocation was left on automatic for both tests. Lines Tech also goes on to disassemble the Legion Go 2, revealing that it's a rather simple process, requiring the removal of just eight screws and a few clips. The design of the interior also appears to be good news, since the battery is held down by screws—not tape or glue—meaning battery replacements should be easy enough when necessary. Among other things, he also shows off that the SD card slot has a heat shield, which should prevent the Legion Go 2 from falling victim to the same SD card failures as the original ASUS ROG Ally.

Intel Reportedly Struggles with "Panther Lake" Manufacturing
According to exclusive information obtained by two sources close to Reuters, Intel is reportedly facing a challenging situation with the high-volume manufacturing of its next-generation PC processor, codenamed "Panther Lake." According to two anonymous sources, Intel's Panther Lake yields, manufactured on the company's promising 18A node, are reportedly so low that Intel may struggle to break into profit with the high-volume production. Typically, these yields begin low and gradually increase over time as Intel advances and optimizes its manufacturing processes. However, given Intel's financial situation and the massive net loss the foundry is producing, this is another challenging situation for Team Blue. In a statement on July 30, Intel's CFO, David Zinsner, told Reuters that Panther Lake is in its early ramp process, meaning the company will be able to deliver the chips; however, many fewer working chips are being produced from 18A production facilities than expected.
Typically, Intel aimed for 50% yields before sending a chip into high-volume production, but this case may be an exception. Intel's yield goal is between 70% and 80% for a profitable business, but launching a CPU with lower production yields is necessary to avoid falling behind in the PC market share grab race. Sources close to Reuters note that a significant breakthrough in chip yields is unlikely by the Q4 launch window of Panther Lake, but there is room for smaller improvements. Without massive improvements, Intel could resort to selling chips at a loss to keep up with the competition. While Intel management keeps reassuring that the company's products will be sustainable for the business, some speculators believe the opposite.
