1 week ago | pcper.com | Jeremy Hellstrom

Goodbye 12VHPWR, Hello 12V-2×6The specs of the ASRock Taichi TC-1300T ATX 3.1 PSU are attractive, two native 12V 2×6 connections with integrated temperature sensors that can handle 600 watts each, a 135mm fan, 80 PLUS Titanium. Inside you will find Rubycon caps and while OCInside weren’t able to say which OEM designed the Taichi TC-1300T for ASRock, the 10 year warranty suggests you shouldn’t be worried about the build quality at all.
Microsoft's All New Dead Host Configuration Protocol

Who Needs Working DHCP Anyways? There was yet another issue with patch Tuesday, one which didn’t make itself obvious until the IP leases on clients started to expire and were sometimes unable to renew their IP or get a new one. To make it more frustrating to figure out, because that’s just what you need from your DHCP servers, the “service might intermittently stop responding after installing this security update.” Intermittent issues are a nightmare to track down, especially with DNS and DHCP.

Spend Some Time With Your Better SelvesThe Alters takes place on a lifeless planetoid which you have crashed onto alone, and you need to continually keep your base rolling along the surface to avoid sunrise; a very bad thing with no atmosphere to protect you from radiation. The problem is twofold, one is that the base is pretty broken and needs to be repaired, the second is that you suck.

AI Discovers Yet Another Way To Kill Our Cultural Heritage You’re likely familiar with the kleptomania that AI displays, ransacking any and all content posted to the web.

1 week ago | pcper.com | Jeremy Hellstrom

A Reference Model Appears!We heard about Phison’s new PS5028-E28 controller at CES this year, but until now all we’ve had to go on were internal benchmarks; not our favourite way to judge performance. This has now changed as several sites, including The FPS Review, were given the chance to try out a reference model SSD based on the new controller, paired with KIOXIA BiCS8 218-layer TLC 3D NAND Flash.

1 week ago | pcper.com | Jeremy Hellstrom

July Will Be A Bad Month For Intel FoundryIntel continues to implement rightsizing, or whatever euphemism is currently being used for layoffs, with somewhere between 15-20% of Intel Foundry employees facing unemployment in July. It’s hard to say exactly how many people that is, Intel had 109,000 employees at the end of 2024, but we don’t know how many of them are employed in Intel Foundry.

Fake Artists, Songs, And Even Full Albums Are Not Being Labelled As AI GeneratedForget the lousy rates your favourite artist gets for every Spotify play; what about the possible disappointment you would feel finding out they don’t even exist?

2 weeks ago | pcper.com | Jeremy Hellstrom

The Double Sided Design Won’t Work With Laptops ThoughIf you want affordable PCIe 5.0 storage, for your desktop or PS5 then ADATA’s XPG Mars 980 Blade is worth considering. TweakTown rated it at just over 14,000 MB/s sequential read and the sequential writes came close to that number as well. As with many inexpensive PCIe 5.0 drives, the XPG Mars 980 Blade uses Silicon Motion SM2508 and Micron B58R flash.
