Good times all around here, enjoy the uncut version if you will.
Two ITX case reviews, 2nm IBM chip process, and if you add the two 1's in the Intel 11th generation mobile launch we discuss, you also get 2. Pure coincidences I assure you.
There's only a little Microcenter talk as compared to the burger discussion. We know our priorities.
Thanks again to everyone here, we really appreciate your support and helping us keep the servers running and the bills paid. Have a great weekend!

Yep, 2+ hours of tech news and discussion about AMD financials, XBOX boards & Zen5, ARM tech, and even Black Mesa.
On the schedule below, and I've realized that the timestamps are ... a bit useless because this is the uncut and raw version. Duh. So I will just put in the general topics, and the times are, well, relative.
But please do jump on the live chat next week, let us know you're there and throw us some questions while we blather on! See you later, and have a great week until then. T...

Eyes closed tightly in this keyframe mostly, because no wanted to see how this was going to turn out probably.

Much Intel 11th gen Rocket Lake-S discussion to be had, topped off with some ARM v9 right afterwards. There's some new software releases, upcoming tech shows, RTX3080ti rumors and April 1st bad jokes. Corsair RMx reviews to round everything out.

And you know what I'm talking about.
After the burger update - which turned out to be a fry salad - we do just one more review of the 6700xt, but this time from XFX. It's got the greatest full name, go read our review.
Also there's our 2021 gaming take, Cyberpunk 1.2 patch, Intel doing the Tick / Tock thing again(?), a Switch 4k with DLSS perhaps and more news! Wrapping up with a cool review of the Corsair Static Pressure fan kits and then our Picks (or anti-pick as it were). And UASP was new to someone. A...

Thank you all for joining us for another podcast, the tech world rolls on, or rolls us over. One of those anyway.
Enjoy not one, but two reviews for the new AMD 6700 XT. If you wanted one, I hope you got one today. If you wanted two, that's probably too many.

Kent joins us this evening to discuss his review of the Thermaltake View 51!
Sorry about the audio echo on someone's mic, it gets better part way through. Blame Firefox? Chrome? Bueller?
Other topics include the early reviews for the 11700k, MS finishes buying Bethesda, Solarwinds hack is worse and funnier, and the RTX 3070 is without a label of distinction at 80 watts, 105 or desktop power! Enjoy that!
Also:
- Watercooled Corsair NVME (Allyn might protest)
- OpenAI fooled by text

It's a chat session with tech overtones and definitely a burger update. Microcenter is only mentioned once, in context even. There's talk of mining, GPU availability, and the "iMac" on Mars. Intel is not quite out of the storage game, and will no longer allow you to buy their "I-fried-my-cpu warranty". And the 3800x might not be a good buy. Plus how bad was Aliens: Colonial Marines?

This weeks show has that usual uncut feel to it, with all the stuff that probably would get us thrown off the Internet otherwise.
The run down includes another crack at the Supermicro spyware, the upcoming release of the RTX 3060, trace more rays with the enhanced edition of Metro Exodus (save your receipts), Audio Technica streamer audio kit, our review of the Samsung 2TB 980 Pro, that clock tuner for Ryzen (get it), Qualcomm objects to ARM acquisitio...

The uncut version.
A bit of a slow tech news week where we cover AMD maybe making a chiplet move in the GPU space, leaked benchmarks from Rocket Lake and 11th gen chipset compatibility, and Switch gaming in the cloud.
We discuss what some of the 2021 trends might be, the "best" upcoming games and things we're looking forward to. (Less expensive PCIe 4 storage, 5G, Halo Infinite, System Shock!).
There's the inevitable talk of when will "XYZ-thing" be available, Virtual CES 2021 and our upcoming reviews.

Not quite the same as in Cyberpunk 2077, but still, we're all hanging out together right?
An epic 2:20 show, take a break part way through is my advice. I did, and I was in it.
- Nvidia the good (Vulkan Rays!) and the bad (Review us the way we like it, or else)
- Encryption and the sad tale of Solar Winds
- Microcenter, sometimes a deal, sometimes no
- Review of the Sapphire Nitro+ RX6800 and WD Blue SN550
- Cyberpunk things, of course
- More, obviously because it was like 2+ hours ok?
