AMD RDNA 3 Radeon RX 7900 XTX and RX 7900 XT GPUs appear Online

It was previously mentioned that AMD was developing its RDNA 3-based Radeon RX 7900 XTX and RX 7900 XT graphics cards. Now that we have confirmation of this, the red team expects to present at least two Navi 31 MCM choices the following week, the RX 7900 XTX and RX 7900 XT.

These data points are from an internal AMD presentation that lists the upcoming RDNA 3 graphics cards. Twitter leaker Chi11eddog (@g01d3nm4ng0) has posted two pictures that don’t reveal much. However, we can assure you that Chi11eddog has been extremely precise with his leaks thus far. The AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX 24 GB and Radeon RX 7900 XT 20 GB cards are listed in this list.

The next-generation enthusiast cards, including the Radeon RX 7900 XTX/XT graphics card, would be powered by the AMD Navi 31 GPU, the top-tier RDNA 3 processor.

We’ve heard that AMD would replace its next-generation RDNA 3 GPUs’ compute units with workgroup processors. Dual CU (Compute Units) will be housed in each WGP, but there will be four SIMD32 clusters per CU, as opposed to two on each CU in RDNA 2. According to rumours, AMD has the choice of the 6nm die from TSMC or Samsung.

The AMD Navi 31 GPU with RDNA 3 architecture is anticipated to feature a single GCD with 48 WGPs, 12 SAs, and 6 SEs, according to the most recent information. There will be a total of 12,288 stream processors distributed as a result. This represents a 2.4x increase in cores above the 5120 SPs found in the Navi 21 GPU. According to reports, the Navi 31 GCD, often known as the GPU, would be packaged on TSMC’s 5nm production node and measure 308mm2.

The Navi 31 GPU will also include 6 MCDs, each of which will have a 16 MB Infinity Cache. Additionally, these MCDs are anticipated to include 64-bit (32-bit x 2) memory controllers, giving the device a 384-bit bus interface.

There is a 3D-Stacked solution in development that would double the Infinity Cache with 32 MB (16 MB 0-hi + 16 MB 1-hi) capacity for a total of 192 MB of cache, even though this equates to 96 MB of Infinity Cache, which is less than the 128 MB featured on the current Navi 21 GPUs. With a 50% improvement over the current Navi 21 design, Navi 31 is the first GPU to feature both chiplet and 3D stacked designs. These chiplets, also known as MCDs, will be produced on TSMC’s 6nm production node and have a 37.5mm2 surface area each.

Avatar: The Way of Water: The New Film Has Longer Runtime than the Previous!! 

All the fans are eagerly waiting for Avatar: The Way of Water. The runtime of James Cameron’s show has been exposed with the Hollywood Reporter drawing word that the sequel will clock at “around three hours and 10 minutes.” In 2009, its first film of Cameron has been debuted, clocking in around two hours and 41 minutes which makes the sequel well over half an hour longer. For your kind information Avatar, 2 is not Cameron’s longest film as a filmmaker though his Oscar-winning film Titanic still holds the first position. 

After a much longer runtime, things worth noting are that most of the highest-grossing films of all time are on the longer side. The two hours and 42-minute Avatar is still the highest-grossing film of all time with 3 hour and 1-minute Avengers: Endgame sitting at #2, and three-hour and 14-minute Titanic in #3. The shortest film on All-Time Top 10 highest-grossing film list is the 2019 remake of The Lion King has a runtime of one hour and 58 minutes.

While the other movie franchises and blockbuster film were able to churn those sequels and visual effects spectacles with ease, James Cameron was playing the long game along with Avatar 2 making sure the tale we were just right also confirms that its 3D spectacle was one worthy of the big screen. 

Cameron told the New York Times,” I do think that the new “Avatar” film will rekindle an interest in natively authored 3-D, which is what I personally believe is the right way to do it,” also added,” I say either do 3-D or don’t do 3-D, but don’t try to slap it on afterward to get the up-charge on the ticket.”. 

Avatar as Highest Grossing Film 

After thirteen years of Avatar 2009, the film is still the highest-grossing film of all time. After being in theaters for just 41 days. Avatar become the top-grossing movie of all time in January of 2010, the film holds a record for nine years until the release of Avengers: Endgame.

Furthermore, Gurman had previously asserted that Apple may release a model with a screen between 14 and 15 inches in size.

These reports could be an indication that Apple will release 14-inch and 16-inch Pro devices given that it already sells 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro versions. The M2 chip, Wi-Fi 6E, an Apple Pencil hover function, support for ProRes video recording, and a few other minor updates were just added to the iPad Pro by Apple last week.

Lionel Messi back to his best with a new record as he provides 10th league assist

Lionel Messi has returned back to his best this season, achieving double digits in goals and assists. He was the man running the show in PSG’s win against Troyes, scoring a goal and providing an assist as the league leaders won 4-3. 

Following the game, Messi has scored seven goals and provided ten assists in Ligue 1. And he has managed to achieve this feat in only twelve league games, which is a new record – even lesser than it took him to achieve the feat at Barcelona. 

The least number of games that it took Messi to achieve ten league assists prior to 22/23 was 14 games in 2010/11 and 2018/19. 

Lionel Messi breaks personal record with 10th assist of the season 

The Argentine has been outstanding since the start of the season, and became the first player to score and assist ten goals across all competitions, in Europe’s top five leagues this season. 

It is safe to say that he is back among the best in the world in terms of current form – and this is great news for the Argentina national team heading into the World Cup. 

This will be the seven-time Ballon d’Or award winner’s last time at a World Cup, and his country is among the favourites to win this time around – especially given the form Lionel Messi is showing right now.

Top 10 unknown facts you did not know about Federico Valverde

Federico Valverde has become one of the best midfielders in recent times. He is a perfect box-to-box modern-day midfielder. He has great legs and can run fast with the ball and now he has added another feature to his game, goals. Real Madrid has a great future with him running their midfield.

Valverde signed for Real Madrid in 2016 from Uruguayan club Penarol. He played for Real Madrid Castilla in his first season and in his second season, he was loaned to Deportivo La Coruna. From the 2018-19 season, Valverde started to make his mark as a substitute and start against lower-ranked teams. Fast forward to this season, Valverde has now become an indisputable starter in the Real Madrid XI.

So, here we will take a look at the top 10 unknown facts about the 24-year-old Uruguayan.

Top 10 things you didn’t know about Federico Valverde

via LifeBogger

1. Valverde showed his interest in football at a very young age. He was enrolled into a football academy as a toddler. When he was 2 years old, he started playing with football at his home and was enrolled into a football academy for babies at just 3 years of age.

2. He has lots of experience being a mascot. You have to be 6 years old to play in official games, but he got enrolled into the academy at just 3 years of age. So, in his initial years at the academy, he was sent as a mascot to bigger clubs and probably he got the feel of the big stage from a very young age.

3. Valverde had his first trial at just 8 years of age. He started his football career at a very young age, so it is no surprise that he had his trial at 8 years. He gave his trial at Uruguayan club Penarol’s academy and was accepted. He spent many years at the club and was also promoted to the senior team.

4. Unlike today, Valverde didn’t like running during his academy days. His coach wanted to play him as a defensive midfielder but he wanted to play as an attacking midfielder as he didn’t like to perform his defensive duties. He was later dropped by his coach. After spending a few matches on the bench, he transformed his game and got back into the team and went on to become an important player for his team.

5. Valverde had a trial at Arsenal during Arsene Wenger’s time but things didn’t work out and the deal collapsed.

6. Barcelona had the chance to sign the Uruguayan but rejected the move. The Catalan club didn’t agree on the asking price and decided against pursuing the deal. Later, their rivals Real Madrid signed him and he has now gone on to become one of the best.

7. Valverde has been accused of racism. During a FIFA under-20 World Cup, he celebrated a goal by stretching his eyes with his hand to pay tribute to his agent. This gesture was misunderstood as a racial slur towards the host country, South Korea. He later explained himself and his actions and cleared the matter.

8. His football idol is Diego Forlan. When Valverde was growing up, Forlan was one of the best players of the country who was performing at the highest level, so it is quite natural for him to follow his countryman.

via MadridXtra’s Twitter

9. Valverde is younger than his wife. His wife is 5 years older than him. There isn’t any rule that a footballer needs to be older than his wife as there are many occasions of players being younger than their wives like Pique is around 10 years younger than Shakira, and Ibrahimovic is around 12 years younger than his wife.

10. Valverde’s child has a special birth date and time! His son, Benicio, was born on 20th February 2020 (20-02-2020). The birth time is also unique as he was born on the 2nd minute of the day, 00:02 minute.
