Samsung cuts corners on S25 FE

1 day ago | fudzilla.com | Nick Farrell

According to Android Authority the S25 FE is pencilled in for a Q3 or Q4 release, dragging along the codename “siop_r13s_s5e9945”, which points squarely at the same tired chip. For a device supposed to offer flagship flavour on a tighter budget, reusing a chip that was already average last year is a bold move. The Exynos 2400e was already dragging its feet in 2024. Next to Snapdragon’s 8 Gen 3 or MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400, its almost as powerful as a slide rule.
Zombie RX 6500 staggers into 2025

According to Tom's Hardware the card is a Frankenstein's monster, splicing bits from the RX 6500 XT and RX 6400 using 2022's Navi 24 (codename Beige Goby). The full-fat 1,024 streaming processors get throttled so hard the GPU ends up sipping just 55W of power—massively undercutting the 107W RX 6500 XT. Zephyr's blower-style RX 6500LP clocks in at a base 1,728 MHz and boost 2,066 MHz, roughly 25 per cent and 27 per cent slower than the XT variant.
Intel's Nova Lake CPUs to tap Taiwan’s 2nm

1 day ago | fudzilla.com | Nick Farrell

According to Taiwan Economic Daily, Intel is going full throttle with TSMC’s cutting-edge tech for Nova Lake, a move that casts doubt on the firm’s previous boasts about the supremacy of its 18A process. For a node hyped to outperform even Intel 3 with PowerVia and other silicon party tricks, it’s not getting much love in the flagship lane. Intel’s Products CEO Michelle Johnston Holthaus said the outfit will look outside its own foundry if customer expectations aren’t met.
Job’s Mob nudged for selling smoke as substance

NAD concluded that Apple’s marketing gave punters the strong impression that a full suite of AI-powered tricks—Priority Notifications, Genmoji, Image Playground, and a ChatGPT integration—were ready to use the moment the iPhone 16 hit shelves. They weren’t. According to the watchdog, the small print Apple used to explain the rollout was neither clear enough nor placed where anyone might read it.
OpenAI eyes Chrome if regulators gut Google

1 day ago | fudzilla.com | Nick Farrell

OpenAI’s head of product Nick Turley told the Google antitrust trial in Washington that if US regulators force Alphabet to flog off the world’s most popular browser, OpenAI says it’s interested. Turley was a witness for the government just as the Justice Department outlined its nuclear option for restoring competition in online search.
Chipzilla’s axe is swinging again

1 day ago | fudzilla.com | Nick Farrell

According to Bloomberg this week’s hatchet job is said to be all about trimming managerial fat and restoring some kind of engineering dignity to the silicon giant, led by Lip-Bu Tan. The move would affect thousands of employees worldwide, though Intel is being its usual tight-lipped self about the precise headcount or schedule.
Whistleblower said DOGE data droids raided union files.

1 day ago | fudzilla.com | Nick Farrell

According to NPR, DOGE engineers demanded top-tier access to the NLRB’s internal systems, and according to the whistleblower, they were granted unrestricted control, which was followed by a suspicious spike in data exfiltration and some very dodgy behaviour that cybersecurity experts say mirrors tactics used by criminal hackers. The NLRB, which handles complaints about dodgy labour practices and holds sensitive data about unions and companies, was left reeling.
AMD’s Radeon RX 9070 GRE leaks

2 days ago | fudzilla.com | Nick Farrell

Trimmed-down cores and memory cuts, but pushes clocks hard Specs for AMD’s upcoming Radeon RX 9070 GRE—short for "Great Radeon Edition," —have slipped out ahead of its official reveal, and it’s shaping up to fill the void between the RX 9070 and the RX 9060 XT. According to Videocardz the chip is built on the Navi 48 GPU and has 3,072 Stream Processors, meaning AMD has lopped off a quarter of its cores.
TSMC can’t police where its chips end up

2 days ago | fudzilla.com | Nick Farrell

In its latest annual report, the €484 billion (US$514 billion) juggernaut said its position in the semiconductor supply chain inherently limits its visibility over where and how its products are ultimately used. Even when TSMC plays by the rules, chips can still end up powering hardware in places Washington would rather they didn’t.
Nvidia plans to fix the China crisis

2 days ago | fudzilla.com | Nick Farrell

According to a report from Ctee, Nvidia isn’t just tweaking existing silicon to comply with Washington’s performance caps—it’s preparing to design new chips within China, relying on the country’s supply chain for everything from packaging to HBM memory and process nodes. The stakes are massive. Nvidia’s AI hardware has been flying off the shelves in China, with revenues far outstripping official figures thanks to layered trades routed through places like Singapore and Malaysia.
