Intel keeps giving us free performance
Microsoft wants to give you a big hug oh
my goodness and in videos get a bear hug
somebody who did this they're this is
incredible your GPU you're not ready for
it let's get the hot news everybody I'm
your bright house we're going to be
going over the hottest Tech news I can
find on the internet while you enjoy
your breakfast this Tuesday August 22nd
2023. and we're going to talk about
something that was just discovered about
Intel's latest driver updates we talked
in yesterday's episode of hot news about
how faster performance in dx11 these
a770 gpus that don't get installed into
PCS run almost 20 faster in dx11 games
when it comes to being smoother 11
faster when it just comes to regular
gameplay but turns out there was a
hidden little Boosty which took people a
few seconds to find because not a lot of
people have these cards but I told you
we did I told you we had an A380 in the
office right here we have an arcade 380
and Intel made that's faster they
overclocked it with the latest Drive
driver update yeah if we install it get
everything going it'd be faster so they
added an extra 150 megahertz to the
latest A380 because it flashes a new
firmware update to bring it from two
gigahertz to 2.15 gigahertz honestly
free performance I'll take it free
performance they found the overhead they
added it in you can now get that you
agree to a little firmware update on the
A380 and your GPU is going a little bit
faster and in case you want to upgrade
to the A380 or get rid of hers however
you want to slice it you should check
out today's video sponsor Jawa because
they will buy your gpus directly from
you whether you're looking to upgrade
from you know an A380 to something like
an a770 or if you want to switch on over
from Team blue over to Team Green Joe
will buy your GPU directly from you you
put in What GPU you have they'll give
you an offer you can choose to sell it
to them for your latest upgrade so you
can avoid the classifieds you don't have
to necessarily go through a bunch of
Hassle and then you're off to the races
with making sure that you're now ready
and suited for your next PC upgrade or
potentially you know I don't know if you
pay Reese do you guys want to give Reese
money that you you did selling your GPU
to Java it's super simple you sell
directly to jaw with no hassle check
them out at the link in the video
description big thanks to Jawa for
sponsoring today's video now Reese oh
boy do you want to talk about this one
you were so excited about this I just
like the way it looks it's why has
nobody done this it's the easiest answer
that Microsoft could have done to Sony's
swappable PS5 plates yes you take the
cover
and it goes around your Xbox so easy we
gotta give people context free so you
have things like on the PlayStation 5
the little plates that swap in and out
we have the dbrand dark plates on this
PlayStation 5 right here and up until
now your only option on the Xbox was
doing something like this laughing a
vinyl skin on it which it still looks
great yeah deeper and vinyl skin I like
it deeper it's not sponsoring but now
there's Xbox official skins wraps like
they're called wraps I think officially
Kyler mentioned it being like an iPad
case and I feel like that's the best
description of it just show them the
video okay so Xbox announcing a couple
different versions of this bad boy with
the first announcement being the
Starfield little wrap that's coming out
the price for NASA core is the design
that's going on here you can see that it
kind of just folds over it'll attach to
the Xbox and make it so that it looks a
new way and actually isn't incompatible
with my debrand vinyl I could just slap
that on it magnetically locks and then
it's easy to just have a beautifully
functional Xbox series X that getting on
your mantelpiece now the price point of
this is fifty dollars and it's not
coming out until November which is very
late so they have three different colors
you can get you get the Starfield
version the mineral camo or the arctic
Camo and they're about 45 to 50 dollars
but considering something like the
dbrand vinyl is 45 it's a great deal for
trying to change up the look of what you
got on your Xbox I personally like it I
think that this design scheme that
starfield's come out with oh it's just
good because I want to I want it on
everything yes keep giving us this NASA
Core Design let me know what you think
of the series X console wraps Down Below
in the comments while we uh we let you
know that it's time for
deals hey deals here I'm going to
intimidate you for all the deals I'm
just gonna stand over and look at you
like this I'm slightly intimidated but
let's go because first up we have the
inner gear low profile Nikon which I
mean is a nice alternative to elgato's
uh 80 micons that we we personally love
this one just doesn't have the cable
routing but for only 29.99 with the
coupon it's a nice little budget
alternative that's real cheap it's real
cheap that's budget for sure but then
next up we have the gigabyte h610m see
now that's low end Intel LJ 1700 Micro
ATX motherboard going for only
79.99 making it 20 off you did it typo I
did a two dollar sign which means it's
more expensive yeah it's just twice that
and then lastly we have the be quiet
purebase 500dx mid Tower ATX case
available in Black for only 99.90 which
is 15.9 off it gets you two included be
quiet cases and I don't know what this
guy's doing you'll be fans not cases
This is distracting it's like you guys
seen the movie it no well he's just
dancing I saw the original one with Tim
Curry when I was way too young for it
but not the most recent one I'm getting
the same kind of intimidation Vibes but
with that the deals are done you can
find these and more Linked In the video
description down below but until next
time I'm gonna drove back to Pennywise
Sophie
intimidation I was going for distraction
towards the end there seemed to have
worked great deals Rhys but uh can you
not do the deal of leaking all of our
data to the public
yeah that's also a little too late for
Tesla because it turns out 75 000
employees got their data leaked and it
turns out it was an inside job being
reported that two former Tesla employees
misappropriated the information of
Tesla's internal data and made it so
that they leaked a whole bunch of stuff
on their employees
Tesla has sued them over the breach and
we'll keep you updated on how this
proceeds but it doesn't appear like it
affects customers at the current moment
but nefarious actors getting in on the
inside of Tesla and nefariously
doesn't work for a Segway threads
getting their own website this week like
I guess that's more they were not able
incompetence right but not really it
wasn't like I feel like an app is harder
to make than a website I don't know I'm
not a physicist I couldn't tell you
Fred's getting its own website later
this week which is
good because the app kind of who's still
using it not many people I think threads
was a flash in the pan yeah and people
were desperate we'll see how it moves
forward and people were desperate to get
out of nvidia's grip where they were
locking things down when it comes to
their graphics cards and no longer for
the first time in years you can finally
get bios modding back on Nvidia GPU well
it's been a hot minute it has it has
been an incredibly long time and it's
one of the reasons why people tend to
like AMD or Intel because there's just
more modifications that you could
potentially do but Nvidia required
driver signing in a way that made it so
you couldn't mod gpus and now according
to tech power up there are two tools
that are available there's one called
OMG V flash which works really well on
touring architecture or previous so RTX
20 series or backwards and then there's
the other one NV flash K which allows
you to basically flash whatever you want
so they are saying that this is the
riskiest one to use because it will
attempt to flash anything to the BIOS on
your graphics card that includes bios or
not bios things that includes actually
good modifications to make your GPU run
faster or malware that will infect your
system yeah it can turn your 4090 into
the fastest version it could ever be or
it can turn it into a nice little
coaster it's your choice which is the
risk always with bios modding you could
potentially break the entire system this
is not necessarily something that you
likely will go ahead and do at home if
you value things like your warranty or
your peace of mind while it's happening
because guess what happens if the power
goes out and you don't have it on a
battery backup coaster time baby that
would be a terrible waste for 490 but
I've seen worse yes but this is
remarkable simply because Nvidia does
not want this to happen they have been
very much fighting against people
actually modifying the BIOS but this
means great things for the Enthusiast
hardcore overclocking Market it also
means great things for people who want
to develop their own little setups for
their bioses make it run however they
want where's the fire setting that's
called the 16 moon power connector yeah
so bios modding can give you control
over a whole bunch of things the
voltages you want to use the cooling
performance the fan curve all baked into
the actual bios and that's why a lot of
gpus even have a little switch to switch
between two different bioses but it's a
good thing Nvidia is getting hacked in
this way because it gives you the
consumer a little bit more freedom over
their product which again they hate
because then that means you're not going
to be tempted to buy the next version
that came out because you made yours
work the way you wanted it to make them
mad
don't don't do this you don't have to do
it I'll just saying just enjoy the fact
that it exists having options is a good
thing I like the fact that I can change
my bootloader on Android even though I'm
never going to exactly
I also use an iPhone we'll see you back
here for honors tomorrow
