Nick Evanson - Internet speed record of 420,000,000 Mbps achieved using standard optic fibre cabling, fast enough to download Baldur's Gate 3 in less than four milliseconds - pcgamer.com - Japan

Internet speed record of 420,000,000 Mbps achieved using standard optic fibre cabling, fast enough to download Baldur's Gate 3 in less than four milliseconds

Readers of a certain age may well remember when having a 56 kbps internet connection was considered fast. Then DSL came along and dial-up looked like a comatose snail in comparison. A team of engineers, though, have achieved a data transmission rate of 402 Tbps using standard fibre optic cables, so fast that you could download Baldur's Gate 3, Red Dead Redemption 2, and the entire Fallout 4 collection all in less than a tenth of a second.

There's a new ray tracing benchmark in town and it paints an all-too-familiar picture of today's GPUs

If you want to test the ray tracing performance of a graphics card, you've got a few options. Most reviewers, including ourselves, will use the likes of Cyberpunk 2077 for ray-heavy workloads or F1 22 and Far Cry 6 for something a bit lighter. And you've got 3DMark's synthetic Port Royal, which is almost entirely ray traced. Now there's a new test on the market from Basemark, which claims to be the world's first «true cross-platform benchmark for ray tracing devices.»

Rip the display off a laptop, snap its keyboard in the middle, and you've got this portable PC you can stick in a pocket

Modern laptops are remarkably capable PCs but even the smallest and lightest of them aren't especially portable. It's not like you can stick one in a pocket, for example. One start-up in China, though, reckons it has the perfect solution by eschewing the display altogether and fitting a hinge in the keyboard, so the whole PC really can be stuffed down the back of your pants.

Workers' strikes and a gloomy forecast for its foundries take the shine off Samsung's AI-boosted revenue and profits

With an estimated 15-fold increase in operating profits, everything looks rosy for Samsung Electronics, thanks to the AI world's demand for memory chips. However, while DRAM, flash memory, and other chips are ranking in the money, thousands of workers are going on an indefinite strike and independent research predicts that its worldwide market share in chip manufacturing will tumble from 31% to just 9% by 2032.

Multiple governments around the world have secretly agreed to restrict the export of quantum computers

It seems that «secret international discussions» have led to an export ban for quantum computers of a certain level of power, despite scientists around the world being unable to actually explain why.

Researchers create Dune-like pee-pants for the next generation of astronauts and maybe even wealthy, overly 'dedicated' gamers

One of the coolest things about the tech world is when science fiction becomes science reality. A research team in the US has developed a system, in the form of a snug-fitting pair of pants, to collect urine and extract potable water from it. The Dune-like technology is aimed at replacing the diapers worn by astronauts during spacewalks and perhaps even PC gamers, too dedicated to their monitors for kill streak-breaking toilet trips.

Nick Evanson - It's 2024 and yet Intel is still churning out DUAL CORE CPUs for desktop PCs, and I'm a little in awe of the plucky trooper - pcgamer.com

It's 2024 and yet Intel is still churning out DUAL CORE CPUs for desktop PCs, and I'm a little in awe of the plucky trooper

Thanks to AMD and its Zen architecture, we now all get to enjoy CPUs with six or more cores for very little money. The current generation of consoles all boast eight cores and 16 threads. It is, after all, the year 2024 and not 2004. Oblivious to this is Intel with the release of the eponymous 310 chip, loaded to the hilt with a staggering two P-cores and naff all else.

Micron expects GDDR7 will improve ray tracing and rasterization performance by more than 30%, compared to previous gen VRAM

RAM chip manufacturer Micron has recently been making some interesting claims about its next generation of ultra-fast memory for graphics cards, GDDR7. Compared to what's currently being used (GDDR6X and GDDR6), Micron says its forthcoming tech is «expected to achieve greater than 30% improvement in frames per second for ray tracing and rasterization workloads.»
