Podcast #748 – Arc A770 in $2K PCs, AMD Retiring Vega & Polaris, Intel Killed Cryo Cooling, Security Scares + MORE
Ryan may not be back this week, but I’m sure viewers won’t tune out in droves. Right? Right?? Hello??? No one left, eh? Well, we did a podcast anyway. So much ARM, too much for ARC, and AMD Polaris / Vega is forsaken. All that and more in the subjects below.
We send out a huge THANK YOU to our generous and ever faithful Patreon members. New folks and current ones that are bumping their patronage are greatly appreciated.
This show cannot go on without you – you know who you are, please consider helping our efforts. It most definitely helps keep us on the air. And helps Josh buy burgers. Thank you!
