Although NVIDIA did not unveil a new consumer graphics chip at CES 2026, behind the scenes the company is preparing a strategically far-reaching release for the gaming and PC market. During a visit to Taiwan, CEO Jensen Huang confirmed for the first time publicly that NVIDIA is working with MediaTek on a so-called “AI PC” […]

Following the well-documented problems surrounding the Ryzen 9800X3D, the next, much broader problem area is now emerging. More and more reports of AMD Ryzen 5 9600X failures on ASRock motherboards are converging into a pattern that can no longer be explained as isolated cases. Within a period of around 30 days, there have been at […]

Jensen Huang’s statements are remarkable, not because of their tone, but because of their implicit significance. When the CEO of NVIDIA declares that TSMC will have to expand its production capacity by more than 100 percent over the next ten years just to meet the needs of a single customer, this is not just a […]

Artificial intelligence is increasingly becoming an integral part of modern scientific work. A recent report by OpenAI shows that systems such as ChatGPT are increasingly being used not only as a supporting tool, but as an active partner in complex research processes. Their use is increasing significantly, particularly in disciplines such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, […]

After weeks of speculation about Apple’s possible return to Intel as a contract manufacturer for iPhone SoCs, industry insiders are now drawing a surprisingly clear line. The tenor emerging from SemiWiki and analyst circles, among others, is clear: there is virtually no realistic prospect of Intel’s most advanced manufacturing nodes being used for iPhone chips. […]

In everyday digital life, subscriptions are quickly taken out; often, just a few clicks are enough to activate a service. However, it is often much more complicated to cancel such contracts. Two rulings by German courts have now drawn a clear line on this issue. The Munich I and Karlsruhe Regional Courts have ruled in […]

I deliberately chose not to structure today’s article as a classic thermal paste test, where you note down a temperature after a few minutes, compare it, and create a supposed ranking. From a physical point of view, this approach falls short and does not do justice to the reality of modern GPUs. What you see […]

At first glance, the idea that computer games will no longer be developed but generated in the future seems like the logical next step in the evolution of AI. After text, images, audio, and video, it now seems to be the turn of interactive entertainment. In fact, there are now systems that generate playable 3D […]

The next generation of smartphones could mark a remarkable break with a long-established pattern. Rumor has it that Android flagships featuring Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 and MediaTek’s Dimensity 9600 will be released in the same month as Apple’s iPhone 18 series. This would eliminate a key advantage that Apple has consistently exploited in […]

The fifth calendar week of 2026 illustrates with particular clarity that the security policy reality of digital infrastructures is increasingly diverging from the officially communicated targets. While strategic papers, digitization programs, and cloud strategies refer to a high degree of resilience and control, operational practice once again paints a different picture. Leakwatch does not view […]

Apple achieved new records in sales and profits during the traditionally strong Christmas quarter. This was largely due to high demand for the current iPhone 17 model series, which proved to be a key growth driver in the important year-end business. The group grew significantly both operationally and financially, exceeding the expectations of the financial […]

For years, Elon Musk has been promoting the humanoid robot Optimus as the next game changer in the industry. Autonomous, capable of learning, suitable for mass production—that was the narrative. Optimus was supposed to not only reduce production costs, but also replace human labor in factories in the long term. Now, at the beginning of […]

Valve continues unwaveringly on its course. Proton 10.0-4 is a new stable version of the compatibility layer that makes Windows games run on Linux and is much more than a routine maintenance update. It is another step in a long-term strategy that aims to gradually make Windows obsolete as a mandatory gaming platform without openly […]

Emails are one of the invisible constants of everyday digital life. Hardly anyone enjoys checking their inbox, yet it is the central hub for online identities, contractual relationships, administrative procedures, and personal communication. Over the years, highly sensitive information accumulates there, from private messages and invoices to password resets. This makes it all the more […]
