this will kill your AMD chip AI decides
it can't be free because you abuse it
too much and this is probably the real
RTX 4070 price let's get into the hot
news everybody I'm your bright host
we're going to be going over the
hottestek news that I can find on the
internet this Friday March 31st 2023
while you enjoy your breakfast I think I
forgot to say that yesterday but this
will Mark the third straight month of
hot news where I haven't missed a single
episode I'm just proud of myself right
here and I wouldn't be proud of these
companies because they have created a
situation where you could potentially
kill your 5800 X 3D because of software
limitations that they chose not to set
inside of their pieces of software so it
appears to be a software bug in
different overclocking apps that you can
find on Windows like MSI Center's
Windows app ASRock software Asus
software gigabyte software what it
allows you to do is set a higher voltage
than what is specified for the ryzen
5800 X 3D and that is a problem because
what normal voltage would work on a
regular AMD chip does not work on these
x3d chips and they actually die rather
quickly because of that and so Igor from
Igor's lab was actually able to kill his
chip by simply going past 1.3 volts on
the voltage and one of the reasons this
is an even bigger deal is because AMD
has locked down overvolting these CPUs
when it comes to the BIOS you shouldn't
be able to adjust any of this because of
the risk and changes in voltage would
have on this chip so it's a bad
situation all around do not increase the
voltage on your 5800 X 3D otherwise you
might end up with a dead chip and it's
being found by several different users
that this is the case changing those
things will create big old problems
going up to voltages as high as 1.55
volts which would definitely result in a
dead chip and even devour found that the
7950x3d is not immune to over voltage
deaths at voltages that would be totally
fine on a 7950x using that on the x3d
version simply kills the chip so make
sure not to overvolt it don't use these
softwares for any sort of manual
adjustment especially not in the way of
anything that AMD wouldn't allow you
otherwise and hopefully there will be a
patch updated to make sure that the CPUs
either don't support it or these
software applications don't actually
allow you to do it speaking of not
allowing companies to do things Kyler I
need you to join me for this segment I'm
got a big old problem with be quiet I'm
sorry to call you out here on hot news
but you did something that I think is
beyond the pale for a company to do
we're angry
you're angry about it as well I'm so mad
so I saw this article in my preparation
for hot news and I got legitimately
excited be quiet bringing out the zero
Wings fan which looks like it's a Dyson
fan just for a PC I presume this was
going to be expensive it probably wasn't
going to move airflow very well but was
just supposed to be really neat
aesthetically but still could move
airflow I wanted a cool fan okay but
turns out they added AI on there it
turned that that gave me a first warning
sign right there and then when you dig
into it a little bit further they got
their Thanos AI whatever that means
Thanos and then if you go over to the
YouTube video that they posted they
discussed the fact that this will only
be available on April 1st 2023 despite
the fact that they posted it on March
30th Kyler
this is an April Fool's joke they've
disrupted the sanctity of April Fool's
Day this is not allowable okay we've all
agreed that there is one day that people
and companies are allowed to bamboozle
us as a whole and releasing this two
days early is unconscionable it ain't
right it's not right you don't celebrate
New Years a couple days before New
Year's okay nobody understands you don't
go knocking on people's doors a couple
days before Halloween expecting candy
all right you don't you don't expect New
York City to drop the ball on December
30th that's not how we do it we've all
agreed there's a specific day for these
things to occur you don't get mad when
you go up to a neighbor and you say
trick or treat and they don't got candy
for you all right I as a news person
coming here trying to report the news to
you talking about things that are
legitimately cool sometimes you don't
release this stuff March 30th you wait
till April 1st it starts like this and
then all of a sudden all of civilization
it crumbles that it falls apart around
you we've somehow allowed Black Friday
to seep into Thanksgiving here in the
United States okay nobody likes that
very or at least very few people like
that nobody should appreciate this
nobody should give be quiet kudos for
releasing a new April Fool's thing on
March 30th all of a sudden it's gonna be
February and it's chaos we don't
celebrate Groundhog's Day on January
31st what's Punxsutawney Phil doing then
napping
you'll wake him up it's hibernating that
hurts the whole flow
flow I'm glad there's commenters in the
YouTube video who agree with us maybe
next time set it private until April 1st
wouldn't have been that hard that would
have been a great joke too I would have
thought it was hilarious yes this would
have been perfect
later you ruined the sanctity of April
Fool's shame on you shame but no shame
for Rhys because he's bringing us the
hottest Tech deals out there hi Reese hi
Reese hey oh my goodness is that Rhys
hey hey friends welcome back to you have
to Deals bringing the hottest Tech deals
on the internet and happy Friday guys I
freaking love Friday it's weekend and I
hope you love these deals as well
because we have the EVGA CLC 120 AIO CPU
liquid cooler going for its lowest price
in 30 days of 44.99 which is 45 or 50
off whichever makes it feel better it's
the same and then if you want to be a
bit of a rebel you can throw it in this
corset iq465x ATX mid tower case which
is currently going for 104.99 which is
60 off and don't forget it includes
three Corsair r120 Vans and last but not
least friends and channel sponsors Jawa
said I get to pick out another PC build
to Showcase and today we have this
absolutely gorgeous one from Jay's PC
Vault this micro CX build features a
ryzen 5 5600x seated in an ASRock b450m
motherboard paired up with an RTX 3060
TI and it's so good to see a 360 TI
build chilling at that low 900 Mark
running it off we have 32 gigs of
Corsair Vengeance ddr4 Ram running at
3000 megahertz a one terabyte team group
nvme m.2 SSD and a 600 watt EVGA 80 plus
gold power supply you can see Jay has
taken the time to match performance and
Aesthetics and I think this thing looks
Flawless the only thing that I can knock
point so far is that the rear i o Shield
is missing otherwise at 930 dollars I
think this is an incredible build well
done Jay and that's it those are the
deals for today you can find the links
to these and more in the video
description down below but until next
time I'ma hand you off back to the bread
for the rest of your hot news cheers for
one of the deals you're not going to
find on ufd deals anytime soon is for
Apple's mix reality or virtual reality
headset I'm not quite the augmented
reality everybody keeps calling it VR AR
it's a whole weird situation whatever
it's going to be called it turns out it
might not actually make its debut at
WWDC because industry analysts are
coming out and finding that uh Apple's
not ready for this bad boy they're
they're looking like they're not going
to be able to ship it until late Q3 and
they don't feel like they have the
iPhone moment for this bad boy so it's
likely not going to be announced or
released at the same time I'm not sure
what to expect out of this so I'll just
I'll hold off on it and you might want
to hold off on pre-judging images or
videos that you see across the internet
because AI is getting very difficult to
recognize at a glimpse as to whether or
not it's human origin or some sort of
artificial setup and that's exactly what
is causing mid-journey to actually
batten down the hatches and make sure
that you can't use them unless you pay
for it the Discord that allows you to
get AI generated images it's not going
to be ten dollars a month to use the
technology citing extraordinary demand
and trial abuse specifically referring
to two different instances of one of
Donald Trump getting arrested in New
York City with the whole hullabaloo that
went around there and then more recently
with Pope Francis actually being in some
sort of puffy jacket we did a whole
short on it right there you can check
that out but that's creating instances
of attention that I think the developer
of mid-journey doesn't want to have
foisted upon him and so it's creating
this situation where they're going to
try to lock it down to make it so that
you have to pay to abuse the system and
then do all of that especially with them
blocking certain use cases for other
political leaders it's clear that they
don't want to move forward on this but
it just it's continuously bringing to
mind how we have to get Savvy for how
these things are developing this is
feels very early internets where things
were so believable because they were
novel and new and Humanity had to figure
it out it's still tricking a few people
especially when it comes to social
engineering I think we all just have to
be wary the next few months few years
are going to be very very tricksy to
manipulate and move through and that's
exactly what it seems like audible's
trying to do is be very Trixie with
their subscriptions because they're
rolling out a new trial to see whether
or not you want ads in the middle of
your audiobook so they're looking at a
limited testing of AD supported audio
books where they will interject a
maximum of eight ads in a 24-hour period
into your audio books and that is if you
do not have a subscription with them you
bought the book but you don't subscribe
to audible so they shove ads in your ear
hole I am vehemently against this this
just bothers me a lot something about
they're being sanctity in like listening
to an audiobook that's different from
other experiences where I don't feel
like this should be ad supported Kyler
what do you think
managed to overhear you while you were
talking about that and I I felt my blood
boiled but like legitimately right
something feels different about putting
ads in an audiobook
audible is saying that this is only a
test and that they're dedicated to
continuously optimizing how they deliver
audio program to listeners everywhere
however this is part of the strategy
that Amazon has been moving forward with
with audible which is just more
podcasting variety more just general
consumable content instead of just being
specifically audiobook driven but let me
know what you think of having ads in
your audiobooks if you listen to them if
this is a big thing for you or not I
want to I'm curious to hear your side of
the conversation Down Below in my side
of the conversation with regards to the
RTX 4070 pricing leak that happened a
few weeks ago about it being 750 was no
chance that's gonna happen I even bet a
40 70 Ti giveaway on it and it turns out
uh some news sources are indicating yeah
that's probably the case with video
cards coming out saying that their
sources are indicating the RTX 4070
should come in at the 599 dollar price
point which is still a 20 percent or 100
price hike from the previous generation
RTX 3070. video card saying that they
confirmed this price with three sources
and that they can change the price last
minute but I think 5.99 to maybe at most
6.99 is where I was expecting this thing
to come in 749 just never made a lick of
sense even though the 4070 TI was
originally supposed to cost 900 bucks
and it launched at 800 bucks I just
didn't see Nvidia being that non-product
segmentized in their lineup to do that
and one of the responses that I got to
that idea was that well Brett what about
the 1660 super in the 1660 TI and I hear
you on that the only caveat that I would
give to that argument is that those were
technically a generation refresh and
that's what muddied the lineup it was
not the original launch that was weird
it was the additional cards added in
after the fact and we're still on the
initial rollout of the 40 series I
wouldn't doubt that a 40-70 super could
potentially be stupidly priced and make
things weird but a 4070 still has to be
clearly delineated from the 4070 TI at
7.99 which is why 749 never made any
sense I think I understand 599 it is a
bit more expensive you are getting a few
extra things it is supposed to be faster
than the 3070 TI which came in at 5.99
you're getting seven extra teraflops
you're getting four extra gigabytes of
vram coming in at 21 gigabits per second
but you are getting less memory
bandwidth because it's only on 192-bit
bus like the 47 ETI is versus the
256-bit bus that was on the 3070 TI and
the 3070s so there are some compromises
that are being made here that make this
a slightly worse graphics card than the
exact price point replacement so Nvidia
still not doing the right thing I feel
like this should be coming in at 4.99
that would still be appropriate it would
have faster memory bin within the 30 70
and it would actually be a legitimate
upgrade in almost every way over the 30
70 but it's not a complete replacement
for the 3070 TI because of that 100
gigabytes less per second of memory
bandwidth I am not a huge fan of the
4070 but we only have to wait a little
while longer to see the benchmarks it's
supposed to be launching April 13th be
excited to watch that happen when it
does anyways I'm going to be done with
this episode of hot news I'll see you
back here on Monday April 3rd for more

thank you
