ON THE FIRST DAY of its annual GPU technology conference, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang showed off the company’s next big thing: Blackwell. Nvidia is keen to point out that Blackwell is a platform, not a GPU, and will power the next generation of AI accelerators and 5000-series graphics cards. Basically, it is the basis for everything from modest graphics cards to monster data center kit, designed to run the world-changing AI that seems destined to dominate things. It is named in honor of David Harold Blackwell, the mathematician who specialized in game theory, probability, and statistics.

AMD's turn to drop the ball?
WITH INTEL'S RAPTOR LAKE CPUs falling over, the company firing around 15,000 employees, and cancelling its 2024 innovation event, AMD must have been enjoying the view - until its new Ryzen 9000 desktop CPUs rolled out. So, is AMD's CPU a minor stumble or game-changing fumble?
Intel issues fix for Raptor Lake degradation
EARLIER THIS YEAR, I wrote about difficulties I was having with a Core 19-13900K processor (see MPC230 Tech Talk). Little did we realize that we were only seeing the tip of the iceberg.
