AMD made the announcement at a small press conference following the release of its second-quarter 2022 earnings, which showed a reported record revenue of $5.9 billion on net income of $786 million.

Your Kindle can finally read ePub books

Amazon might be feeling the competition in the e-reader market for the first time since…well, ever.

USB-C cables can now charge the most powerful gaming laptops

Combining data, audio/video, and charging into a single port with USB-C and Thunderbolt is one of the coolest innovations in modern laptops. But thanks to a relatively low limit on the amount of power USB-C cables can transfer, more powerful laptops with discrete graphics have had to make do with old-fashioned proprietary or barrel chargers. A more versatile USB-C 2.1 spec introduced last year opened up the possibilities for cables that can charge up to a whopping 240 watts, and we’re fi
