Nintendo’s next-gen console could come as soon as 2024

Remember that rumour Intel was scaling back on its plans for its next-gen Battlemage graphics architecture we reported last month? At the time we said something about it didn't square up. But now there's new, arguably more substantial, information that implies Intel hasn't reduced its ambitions for Battlemage at all. Intel's next Arc GPU could still be targeting performance up to Nvidia RTX 4080 levels.

Bluetooth trackers have spurred a bit of controversy ever since they came around. While there have been instances of them being nefariously used to unknowingly stalk people without their consent, these devices have also done a whole lot of good. People have used Bluetooth trackers to find their lost or stolen items like wallets, bikes, cars, and even potted plants and pets, while the police have used them to catch criminals. Thus, it is safe to say that the positives have outweighed the negatives so far.

There's a freshly leaked image of a Radeon chiplet GPU design—reportedly from a now-cancelled Navi 4C die—and it's rocking anywhere between 13 and 20 different chiplets on one GPU. I love a bit of ambition, but I think we're starting to see why AMD really might be calling time on competing at the high end in its next graphics card generation.

In a development that will surprise no-one who knows computing history, it has been rumoured Intel's next-gen desktop CPUs, codenamed Arrow Lake, will contain a whole lot more cache memory. Like, potentially a 75% increase in total L2 cache for the top Arrow Lake CPU. And we've seen what a fat wad of cache can do for gaming performance, right?

A picture of an upcoming LGA1851 desktop CPU has made its way onto the internet. Though a picture of a CPU that's a year or more from release isn't particularly amazing, what is interesting is that it appears to be a Meteor Lake sample. While Meteor Lake-S was seemingly canceled, the existence of CPUs such as these tells us Intel got a long way down the Meteor Lake-S development path.

After the vague announcement of what seemed like little more than a licensing agreement earlier this year, we now know that TMNT: The Last Ronin is in development for PC and next-gen consoles under publisher THQ Nordic.

The game is in 3D.

As AMD's next-gen Zen 5 CPUs come close to launch, it seems like Linux 6.6 has started to receive new patches based on the upcoming "Family 1Ah" architecture.

The iPhone 15 Pro models will see daylight in the first half of September and leaks related to the devices are pouring in. It was recently reported that the iPhone 15 Pro models will come with the 3nm A17 Bionic chip with 6 CPU and 6 GPU cores for better computational and graphical performance. It is now being coined that the iPhone 15 Pro models with a higher storage configuration could come with 8GB of RAM instead of 6GB of RAM.

Samsung recently announced its latest foldables, the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Flip 5, but it is already looking forward to the launch of its 2024 flagship, the Galaxy S24 Ultra. As per reports, the smartphone is already in development with details about its various components surfacing. The Galaxy S23 Ultra is considered as the best Android smartphone by many due to its excellent camera and display. It competes directly against the iPhone 15 Pro Max for the position of the best smartphone in the market.

Intel's latest Permon update has added support for next-gen Lunar Lake CPUs & confirmed the latest Lion Cove and Skymont core architectures.

According to Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick mid-gen console upgrades, which also includes the rumored PS5 Pro model, aren't that important.
