If you lower the consumption on notebook’s graphics cards and you increase their performance, making it inevitable for manufacturers not to wanna show muscle with machines like the ASUS ROG RX800. Based on the design of the RX700 with an external liquid cooling system and Intel’s Skylake processor K series with an unlocked multiplier, the …
Samsung announced in the Flash Memory Summit 2016 its fourth generation of 3D V-NAND memory Flash. These new memory chips of vertical arrangement have up to 64 layers, which means that each chip has a capacity of up to 512 Gigabits. The manufacturer has also announced that these will be used in their next generation of SSDs that will reach up to 32TB capacity in a 2.5-inch format.
The previous generation of Samsung’s V-NAND had 48 layers per chip, so the maximum capacity of these was 256GB. As an example, these third-generation chips have been used in the 4TB versions of SSDs Samsung 850 EVO. With the arrival of the fourth generation,the number of layers has been increased to 64, significantly increasing the maximum capacity per chip, occupying the same space.
The Flash Memory Summit just ended, so have to talk about storage devices. One of the biggest bombs of the fair was given by Seagate, as they introduced their new PCI-Express SSD Nytro XP7200, with a total capacity of up to 7.7TB and is capable of operating at speeds up to 10,000 MB/s . They have also shown a 3.5-inch SSD with 60TB capacity.
Android is a very flexible operating system. Compared to competing platforms like iOS and Windows Phone, it gives more freedom of action to the user, but this evident advantage means taking some more risks about informatics safety.
The opportunity to install apps from external sources, “outside” the Google Play Store, and the pretty wide spread of the operating system (it’s the most used platform in the world, as regards smartphones) has meant that Android attracted some unpleasant attentions from cybercriminals, who create malwares aimed to spy the users’ activities, collecting their data and sometimes activating some very expensive premium services by SMS.
To protect yourself from this kind of risk, you need to use your own smartphone/tablet wisely, avoiding downloads of apps from external sources (but it must be said that sometimes, viruses have been found even on the Play Store, disguised as innocuous games or apps) and, if possible, installing a good antivirus: there are many of them, even for free, without slowing the system down at all, and getting to guarantee a great level of protection. If you want, I can suggest you some of the best ones around and teach you how to delete Android viruses by using them. It won’t take long, I promise.
Before we take a look to the best antimalware apps currently available on Android, let’s clear up an important point: to reasonably rest easy, you should just download apps from safe sources only, so from the Play Store only, from developers with proven reliability, and don’t root the Android system.

Until the 10th of July, UEFA Euro-cup will be the predominant media event on papers, online media and, above all, television.
Precisely, and despite other screens, like tablets, mobile phones or laptops, television is still the preferred media to enjoy sports competitions, in our own homes, at a friend’s or at public places like pubs and bars. And the bigger the screen,the better.
Generally, TV screens are categorised by the diagonal size of the screen, associating a larger size with a better quality of the device. But there are other parameters relevant in the quality of the screen, besides its diagonal inches.
One of the characteristics of a television device, besides its size, is the screen resolution. Through history, this resolution has been increasing, coming from 365 lines of the analog TV, to the 576p of the SD (Standard Definition) resolution, later to the 720p of the HD (High Definition) and to the 1080p of the Full HD.
With a fan design similar to the NVIDIA reference model – but with more discreet lines and decorated with the ASUS logo with RGB lighting, ASUS has announced its new GeForce GTX Turbo 1080 graphics card. It will come with speeds of 1,607 MHz and 1,733 MHz of boost for the GPU and 10,000 MHz …
Each time a new CPU, RAM or graphics card comes onto the market, overclockers get down to work and to find ways to reach their limits to beat new records. The German overclocker Dancop has succeeded in setting an ASUS ROG Strix GTX 1080 graphics card to 2.645 MHz in boost mode, making it the fastest GTX 1080 in the world.
For this, he has had to use liquid nitrogen and a motherboard ASUS ROG Rampage V Edition 10 with an 10 core i7-6950X , with which they have beat the GPUPI 1B 1x test record of 13 seconds with an amazing 492 milliseconds when using the ASUS ROG Strix GTX 1080.
Nvidia, a leading graphics card manufacturer, has recently announced new GPUs based on its next-generation Pascal architecture. The Nvidia Titan X is a step above the 1080 GTX, while the new Nvidia Quadro is suited to the professional sector.
The new Nvidia Titan X promises benefits that are 50% greater than the 1080 GTX.
According to Nvidia, the Titan X is able to offer performance up to 50% higher than the company’s previous flagship, the 1080 GTX, which was already the most powerful GPU at the time. While the latter only boasted with 8 GB of GDDR5 RAM memory with a 256-bit bus, the Nvidia Titan X has 12 GB and a 384-bit bus, with a consumption of 250 W – just 70W superior to GTX 1080 and just as much as the old GTX Titan X.
Today is the day. AMD has officially presented the RX 470 and RX 460; two graphics solutions that are meant to cover one of the mid-range and mid-lower-range segments and are marketed to those players who have a budget of approximately 100-200 dollars.
In the end, almost all of the leaks and rumors that we have been seeing have been confirmed, which has certainly surprised us, but we want to make use of all of the official information that AMD has given us to create a special article with which we hope to ease all of your doubts.
Like always, you can leave any question that you may have in the comments, and I will answer them without any problem.
The RX 470 has proved itself to be a graphics solution that’s very similar in specs to the RX 480. As we can see in the photo, it has 2,048 shaders, keeps the 256-bit bus and has 128 texture units and 32 raster units. This means that its performance should be slightly inferior to that of the RX 480 4GB GDDR5, but we can’t tell the exact difference.
AMD made a presentation the other day to show the media specialized new Radeon RX 470, and RX 460 are coming. As always, “someone” has not respected the confidentiality agreement and leaked slides that show the technical characteristics of these two graphs, as well as its theoretical performance in games.
The same old story, and now we have complained many times. All media have this information in advance (logical, we have to report it when they arise, in addition to doing appropriate reviews), but we cannot publish because we have signed a confidentiality agreement, but there is always someone who not only skips but also it puts watermark to your images so that when we do echo others quit their website in large letters.
