Kioxia aims to sweet talk SK Hynix into letting the Western Digital merger go ahead, with a new manufacturing deal as the carrot this time around

This is a news story that's been rumbling along for a good while now. Kioxia and Western Digital, two of the largest SSD and USB memory stick manufacturers in the world, have been repeatedly trying to merge into a single company, except that SK Hynix has blocked the attempt every single time. This time, however, Kioxia is trying a different approach and is apparently trying to sweeten the deal by agreeing to let SK Hynix use both Kioxia's and WD's fabrication plants for its own line of memory and NAND flash chips.

US Dept of Justice used existing router malware to quietly purge a Russia-backed 'vast spearphishing' botnet from devices in peoples' homes

There aren't many stories in the world of technology that could easily make it as a plot for a tense spy-thriller movie, but this one sure has all the right hallmarks for one. Last month, the US Justice Department carried out an authorised operation in which it neutralised a botnet, comprising hundreds of routers in homes and offices, that was used to carry out spearphishing and other credentials stealing. And it was achieved by using the very same malware as that by the botnet itself.

Nick Evanson - Turns out speedrunning Windows installs is a thing, so why not spare 106 seconds to watch the world's most 'heart-pounding' record attempt? - pcgamer.com

Turns out speedrunning Windows installs is a thing, so why not spare 106 seconds to watch the world's most 'heart-pounding' record attempt?

Nothing beats the feel of a freshly installed operating system. It's all so fast and snappy, with nothing clogging up the registry or start menu. The only problem is that it's a bit of a drag to do, not least being the time spent waiting for Windows just to install itself. Wouldn't it be great if it was all over in a couple of minutes? Turns out that this can actually be done and it's been pared right down to 106 seconds.

Intel is asking for an additional $10 billion from CHIPS act subsidies because the chip giant feels it deserves more cash for investing in US developments

Poor Intel. Last year was pretty rough for the 55-year-old semiconductor firm, as it accrued just $54.2 billion in revenue, 14% less than the year before. After paying all its bills for manufacturing, research and development, and biscuits, there was just $1.7 billion left over in net income. Poor Intel.

FSR 3 removed from Nightingale's launch plan with 'a significant number' of game crashes blamed on the AMD tech 'whether or not users had the setting turned on'

Nightingale, the latest hit in the sea of co-op survival games, has been running into a number of problems in its recent server stress test. That's par for the course of any online beta, but the developers noticed something very specific about a significant number of the crashes recorded: No matter whether it was enabled or not, the implementation of AMD's FSR 3 upscaling tech was apparently to blame. With the official launch happening tomorrow, the developers were left with only one choice and that was to yank the code right out.

AMD's Zen 5 chips will reportedly hit mass production at TSMC in the summer

We all love a good architecture or two in the PCG hardware office and we especially like AMD's current Zen 4 and 4c designs. They're super efficient, clock really high, and their performance in games is spot on. So a report that the chip giant's next generation of designs will be hitting mass production toward the end of summer 2024 has piqued our interest and it'll be good news for games if that's the case.

You can run Nvidia CUDA applications natively on Radeon GPUs thanks to ZLUDA, the open-source project that AMD once funded

You don't need to be a professional content creator or an expert in data analysis to know that when it comes to GPUs for these roles, one manufacturer dominates the market: Nvidia. That's almost entirely down to CUDA, a programming platform that's been around for years. AMD has its own system called ROCm but it's nowhere near as popular. Well, thanks to the tireless efforts and work of one person, you can now enjoy all the benefits of CUDA applications on a Radeon graphics card, without changing a single line of code.

Corsair's coffers cop a load of cash: 'The gaming hardware market in the United States and Europe is now at a level between 30% and 50% bigger than pre-pandemic years'

During the Covid pandemic, sales of gaming PCs and associated peripherals went stratospheric, as millions of people worldwide not only had to work from home but also keep themselves entertained in the confines of their four walls. But since then, things haven't been so good and quite a few companies have felt the pinch in their finances. Corsair, famous purveyor of all things RGB, appears to be doing pretty well, though, as indicated by the $1.46 billion annual revenue declared in its latest financial report.
