It looks likes like you better buy your SSD’s in the near future because according to a report from DigiTimes, the prices are about to skyrocket up 40% in 2020. Now usually, when we talk about price hikes in the NAND flash market, which has happened a lot over the last year or so, it’s industry analysts who make predictions. And most of those times, those predictions are a miss or not super accurate. This time though, the information seems to come directly from sources at memory chip makers which means its a lot more likely. I mean, about 2 days ago, Samsung suffered a minute long power outage which apparently damaged millions of dollars worth of Dram and Nand flash and that alone could cause a price hike. So, if you wanted to buy an SSD or some memory, now would be the best time to do so. And I’m not just saying this because of the possibility of a price hike, it’s also the cheapest we’ve seen memory in the last couple of years. Moving to some AMD news, Hey, it’s inevitable, we have to talk about AMD ok. Anyways, the company will be at CES 2020 and “ will push the envelope yet again to make 2020 an incredible year for high-performance computing." Their words, not mine, I’m not that much of a fanboy. According to a major Taiwanese newspaper AMD will likely share some details on the Zen 3 architecture during their presentation. That makes sense since according to AMD’s official roadmap, at least one product is slated for production in q3 of this year with zen3, I’m talking about the Epyc Milan processors. So What about desktop CPU’s ? Well, we’re still waiting on some details for the Threadripper 3990X with a whopping 64 cores, and according to some rumors, AMD might also introduce the 3980X at 48 cores. although the sources are pretty thin on that last one. And for Ryzen mainstream processors, no info has really come out for CES 2020, but some speculations on performance increases have been floating around for Zen 3. Apparently, Zen 3 will offer a 50% increase in floating-point performance, and a 17% increase in IPC, although as with any speculation take this with a grain of salt. At least, Mark Papermaster, AMD’s CTO said during an interview with AnandTech this week, that AMD’s goal is to increase Single-core performance by at least 7% every 12 months. Given its a brand new architecture, we might get a very small teaser of Ryzen 4000 at CES but I highly doubt it. Moving on to some more AMD news it looks like I have been Vindicated. Navi 12 is officially not BIG Navi. Ok not officially, but it’s been spotted on Compubench featuring a maximum of 36 compute units. It says 18 here, but has a dual compute unit layout so it means it has 36 individual ones. That’s for all of you who thought that my naming scheme logic ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-QtuBkQMqY

So, obviously, we’ve been covering pretty much everything when it comes to the next generation of GPU's. Every core count that was rumored, any TDP numbers that came up, but I’ve never really discussed the possible release windows of the RTX 4000 series. Well, That’s because it was pretty much all over the place with different leakers giving us different date ranges. So, I decided to wait for a little while the dust settled and everyone agreed on the same timeframe. The early leaks pointed at a split release for the 3 top-tier cards. The rtx 4090, 4080, and 4070. So each card’s release would be spaced by a month, so that’s 4090 in august, 4080 in September and 4070 after that. Those are all of the launches for 2022. The 4060 would be a CES 2023 launch and of course, anything else would come after. Now though, the consensus seems to be that those release dates have been pushed by a month. So the 4090 would come in September, 4080 in October, and the 4070 in November. The 4060 launch even would still be at CES. Of course, these release dates dont mean that the cards would be announced a month apart. Just like the 3000 series and the 2000 series before that, the top 3 cards could all be announced at the same time with the timeframe likely being in august. So yeah, there you go! An update on the 4000 series release dates. Moving on, let’s talk about intel! The 13th generation of their core CPUs is right around the corner, and with the leaks that have been popping out, it looks like a beast. The latest of those leaks is a Sis software benchmark for the i9 13900. This should be a lower clocked, non-overclockable version of the chip.
