Our latest 'Leo Reacts' video for Computex 2021 is devoted to EKWB and their enormous range of products for custom loop liquid cooling. In particular we were taken by the Nucleus AIOs and an enormous array of radiators... but EK had plenty more shiny and exotic items to unveil..

Dr. Lisa Su, the CEO of AMD, had a great time presenting her Computex keynote address. AMD continues to make inroads in the server and workstation markets with EPYC, while their Ryzen desktop CPUs are the first choice for PC enthusiasts. AMD RDNA 2 graphics are pretty darn good, however there is no denying that Nvidia dominates the graphics market. And then we have laptops to consider and yes, Dr. Su delivered a 'one final thing' moment before she signed off...

During AMD's keynote at Computex, we got an early look at new 3D stacking technology that the company is working on. Using a prototype Ryzen 9 5900X with 3D stacking, significant performance improvements were shown, with games running up to 25 percent faster. 

Intel kicked off Virtual Computex 2021 with a keynote address lasting 40 minutes.

SSDs are known to significantly outclass HDDs in terms of performance, but Seagate has been developing a new technology to close the gap a bit. Named Mach.2, this new technology features a dual-actuator and two HDDs working simultaneously to deliver a level of performance similar to a SATA SSD.

Following the rumour about an incoming refresh of the Ryzen 5000 series, AMD made a statement confirming its existence and detailing a bit more about them. Unfortunately, it won't be the kind of refresh we hoped for, as it won't bring any performance improvement.

Yesterday, Nvidia confirmed that it is releasing 'Lite Hash Rate' versions of the RTX 3080, RTX 3070 and RTX 3060 Ti with anti-mining measures in place. Some more information has since come to light - LHR versions of these GPUs will be shipping to third-party board partners only, meaning we won't be getting LHR 'Founders Edition' cards. 

Back in February ahead of the launch of the RTX 3060, Nvidia announced its new anti-mining measures to make GeForce graphics cards less desirable to crypto mining farms. We've heard through leaks and rumours that this tech would eventually transition over to the rest of the RTX 30 series line-up and today, Nvidia is making that official.

Following on from several leaks earlier this year, Nvidia is launching the RTX 3050 Ti and RTX 3050 laptop GPUs today. RTX 3050 series laptops will start at $799 and deliver up to 2x the performance compared to the previous generation GTX 1650 Ti. 

AMD's flagship RDNA 2 GPUs have been out for a while now, which means it is time to start looking ahead to the next generation. AMD is currently working on its RDNA 3 GPU architecture, and according to early leaks, we can expect at least a 40% performance improvement.
