Despite being over $1500 US, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card has been widely purchased since it was released just about a month ago. According to reports, this number is 100,000 and may even be a little bit more, as Chi11eddog has recently confirmed. 100,000 units for a new launch on a brand-new TSMC 4N manufacturing node is a sizable amount.
It was said that there was just a limited supply of the GeForce RTX 4090, however it appears that’s not the case. Although it’s plausible that some of NVIDIA’s production capacity has been transferred to the server chips, the idea that the stock has been completely limited is absurd. While the scalping situation was awful during the first week of launch, most of that is now in the past as there are many graphics cards accessible in retail.

The GeForce RTX 4090 has 24 GB of GDDR6X memory capacity, which is clocked at 21 Gbps rates through a 384-bit bus interface.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 has a total of 16,384 CUDA cores and 128 of the 144 SMs. This will offer bandwidth of up to 1 TB/s. The TBP is rated for 450W of power consumption, which is the same bandwidth as the current RTX 3090 Ti graphics card. A single 16-pin connector that can supply up to 600W of electricity powers the card.
It was obvious that Intel required the contract chipmaking unit to have comparable size to Samsung and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. since fabs and production nodes are becoming more expensive when it launched its Intel Foundry Services division in early 2021. Since the aim was set to become the second-largest foundry by 2030, the corporation appears to be planning to be somewhat aggressive as well.
Intel will have to defeat Samsung Foundry, which produced over $20 billion in sales in 2021 and is on track to surpass this figure in 2022, to move up to No. 2 on the worldwide foundry market. Samsung Foundry is currently No. 2 according to TrendForce. While far trailing market leader TSMC (53.6%) and its nearest competitors UMC (6.9%) and GlobalFoundries (5.9%), Samsung Foundry controlled roughly 16.3% of global foundry revenue as of Q1 2022.
In contrast, Intel’s IFS business division has so far this year brought in $576 million in sales. When the deal to buy Tower Semiconductor is finalised in early 2023, Intel’s IFS segment will generate an additional $1.5 billion in revenue annually. IFS will now rank No. 7 or No. 8 globally in terms of foundries, but its income will still be far lower than Samsung Foundry.
Intel has so far made public a somewhat ambitious plan for its process technology that calls for high volume manufacture of chips using its 18A (18 angstroms, or 0.18 nm-class technology) in 2025 and the use of High-NA extreme ultraviolet lithography equipment for 18A, if practicable. Samsung Foundry and TSMC both intend to begin producing 2nm-class (20 angstroms-class) processors in 2025, while Intel’s production node strategy is somewhat more aggressive (which means that these will be available in very late 2025 at the earliest, or rather in 2026).

Intel’s plans are as aggressive in terms of chip capacity.
Construction on the company’s $3.5 billion facility for advanced packaging operations, its 20A-capable Fab 52 and Fab 62 at its camp near Chandler, Arizona, its first two 18A/20A-capable modules at its site near Columbus, Ohio, its first new Intel 4-capable module at its camp near Leixlip, Ireland, and its brand-new fab near Magdeburg, Germany are all currently underway. In total, Intel aims to spend close to $100 billion on new semiconductor fabrication facilities in the upcoming years (or rather, co-invest with governments and co-investment partners like Brookfield).
Samsung, though, is equally ambitious in its CapEx spending. In reality, Samsung will invest over $33 billion in new semiconductor production capacity this year and will maintain its investment at around the same level next year, the company recently revealed, while Intel decreased its capital expenditures from $27 billion in 2022 to $25 billion recently. Of course, it is unclear how much of these funds will go toward expanding the logic capacity of Samsung Foundry versus investing in memory (3D NAND and DRAM) production facilities, but the South Korean company is obviously very aggressive with its semiconductor business, making it particularly challenging for Intel to compete with SF’s advanced capacities.
It will be more difficult to steal customers from TSMC and Samsung Foundry because major clients like Nvidia and Qualcomm have long-term supply contracts with their foundry partners. The ability of Intel’s manufacturing facilities in Europe and America to offer the same pricing as TSMC and Samsung Foundry’s manufacturing facilities in Taiwan and South Korea is also an open question.
According to those with knowledge of the situation, Pegatron Corp. has become the second Apple supplier in India to begin producing the most recent iPhone 14 model, which is being used to meet both domestic and international demand. They also mentioned the production-linked incentive (PLI) scheme for smartphones, which the Taiwanese contract maker wants to invest Rs 1,132 crore between FY2022-23 and FY2024-25.
Within ten days of its global launch, another Apple supplier, Foxconn, began producing the iPhone 14 in India in September, highlighting the US smartphone giant’s effort to increase production of its most recent gadgets in what is quickly becoming a crucial production hub.
In order to diversify its manufacturing and lessen its reliance on China, Apple’s three contract manufacturers—Foxconn, Pegatron, and Wistron—are all actively expanding in India. In addition, Covid-19 lockout has been in place for the past three days at Foxconn’s Zhengzhou, China, plant, the world’s largest production facility for iPhones.
Following this development, noted Apple analyst Ming Chi Kuo, in a tweet on Friday, said Foxconn will accelerate the expansion of capacity at its India plant. “As a result, iPhones made by Foxconn in India will grow by at least 150% on-year in 2023, and the medium/long-term goal is to ship 40-45% of iPhones from India (versus the current 2-4%),” Kuo said.
The latest Apple supplier to do so was Pegatron, which began producing the iPhone 12 in April of this year.
According to reports, the company intends to invest Rs 1,132 crore under the production-linked incentive (PLI) scheme for smartphones between FY2022-23 and FY2024-25. Since the corporation entered a year late, it will only be taking part for four years.

Foxconn and Wistron, two additional Apple suppliers, will receive incentives for a period of five years. Global companies are required to make a cumulative minimum investment of Rs 1,000 crore over a four-year period in accordance with the PLI scheme’s rules. In the last year of the five-year arrangement, the corporations are not compelled to make an investment. Pegatron has committed to investing for the first three years because it will only accept incentives for a four-year period.
The initiative mandates that multinational corporations invest an additional minimum of Rs 250 crore in the first year compared to the base year. Pegatron intends to manufacture 94,349 iPhones over the course of four years, of which 77,293 iPhones will be exported. 28,733 individuals are expected to be employed by the business. In Chengalpet, Tamil Nadu, there is a manufacturing facility for Pegatron.
Pegatron had not responded to inquiries as of the time of publication. Apple declined to comment. The Pro models are currently imported from China and are not produced in India by any of Apple’s vendors. The 2020 launch of the PLI plan for smartphones was intended to entice manufacturers away from economically dominating nations like China and Vietnam. India is attempting to overtake the two nations, which continue to export more mobile phones than any other nation in the globe, thanks to the programme. By 2025–2026, India wants to export mobile phones worth $60 billion.
In fact, Apple and Samsung were the main contributors to India’s monthly mobile phone exports reaching the $1 billion milestone (about Rs 8,200 crore) in September for the first time ever.
The deployment of 5G technology, according to Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) Chairperson Dr. P.D. Vaghela, will help India realise its aim of digital empowerment and enhance the wellbeing of its citizens.
“5G technology would offer significant improvements in network performance and is likely to transform industries and society, putting the country on an unprecedented growth trajectory. 5G would have a massive impact on various industries and on the overall economy,” he said at a workshop here.
Vaghela added that with 117 crore telecom users and 825 million broadband subscribers, India is currently the second-largest telecom market in the world.
According to him, India has identified technology as a crucial component for social and digital inclusion as well as quick economic growth. He claims that the Digital India programme has significantly increased the usage of technology and has significantly changed the Digital India profile across several industries.

The TRAI director also discussed ways that the various parties might work together to hasten the deployment of the infrastructure needed for 5G, taking into account the problems and difficulties in the northeastern states.
According to him, the government’s top priority is to ensure that every segment of society has connectivity at all costs by giving everyone, particularly those who are underserved, access to the internet and other digital technologies.
Regarding the necessity of implementing new digital technologies for social and economic development, Vaghela stated that in the modern world, the digitalization of the economy and social life is of the biggest importance. In order for the average citizen to be able to explore the prospects present in an economy, he stressed the importance of digital literacy and the development of digital infrastructure and connectivity to every household.
According to the sources, in November 2021, Qualcomm stated their anticipation of supplying 20% of Apple‘s modem chips in 2023, which potentially indicates a switch to Apple’s modem chips.
Apple and Qualcomm Modem Chips
Apple has been attempting to reduce its reliance on Qualcomm by creating its internal modem technology, but it doesn’t seem that its chips will be ready for a 2023 release.

Gurman’s report confirms details that Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo previously provided. According to Kuo, Apple’s efforts to develop a 5G modem chip “failed” in June 2022, and Qualcomm would continue to be Apple’s modem provider for the 2023 iPhone lineup.
Kuo claimed that although work on the chip slowed, it is still being done. However, it will take more time for the work to be finished and satisfactory for use in iPhones and other devices. Apple is expected to develop its modem chip.

In 2017, Apple filed a lawsuit against Qualcomm, claiming that the company was wrongfully collecting royalties for technologies that Apple had nothing to do with. With the switch to 5G, Apple wanted to cease paying fees of the company and switch to using Intel technology, but Intel could not produce 5G chips that matched Apple’s requirements.

Since Qualcomm agreed to a settlement, Apple has been using their 5G modem processors in its iPhone and iPad models. Since then, Apple has been developing its modem chip and even bought Intel’s modem chip division to get an advantage.
Early reports suggested that Apple would be prepared to make the switch in 2023, but it appears it will take a little longer for Apple to sever its modem agreements with Qualcomm.

In joint third position are French footballer André-Pierre Gignac and Uruguayan footballer Edinson Cavani who both score 9.76/10 for their performances under pressure. Both players scored 5 winning goals in extra time, but Cavani outscored Gignac by two goals during the last 5 minutes (8 vs. 10). Additionally Gignac scored 28 goals in the last 30 minutes and Cavani scored 24 goals in the last 30 minutes.
In the fourth position is Polish professional footballer, Robert Lewandowski who scores 9.7/10 for his performance under pressure. He has an average goal time of 49.05 minutes of the 520 goals analysed. Impressively, Lewandowski has scored 5 winning goals in extra time, 8 in the last 5 minutes, and 26 in the last 30 minutes.
Closely followed is Brazilian professional footballer Paulo Henrique Sampaio Filho, otherwise known as Paulinho, who scores 9.67/10 for his performance under pressure. He has an average goal time of 53.32 minutes of the 331 goals analysed. Impressively Paulinho has scored 7 winning goals in extra time, 11 in the last 5 minutes, and 24 in the last 30 minutes.
BestOnlineCasinos.com analysed goal logs containing over 678,000 goals for over 64,000 players in notable football leagues both past and present. The research sought to identify the best performing players in high pressure scenarios through the analysis of winning goals scored in late stages.
Firstly, a dataset containing 678,000+ goals scored by players in notable competitions was acquired using match event logs sourced from a comprehensive sport analytics data source(s). Goals were then one-hot encoded to identify those scored in either extra time, the closing 5 minutes, or the closing 30 minutes.
Further one-hot encodings were subsequently performed to identify winning goals. Winning goals are defined as only those resulting in a direct victory with a one goal margin. This definition of winning goals isolates only those that were scored in high pressure scenarios.
An aggregation calculating for each player, the total sample of goals, total winning goals, winning goals in extra time, winning goals in the last 5 minutes, and winning goals in the last 30 minutes was computed.
An asymmetrically weighted index score out of 10 was then calculated giving greater significance to the number of winning goals and winning goals scored in extra time.
Priya Prakash Varrier coming with the new love drama film ‘4 Years‘. The trailer is out for the fans and critics. A few years ago, Priya Praksh Varrier become viral for her first look at her upcoming film with Sarjano Khalid. Priya Prakash Varrier made her film debut through the 2019 film ‘Oru Adaar Love. Priya became an overnight internet sensation when her wink from the song ‘Manikya Malarayi’ went viral. She became the most searched person in India in 2018 as well. Post the release of her first film, Priya made her Telugu acting debut in Ishq – the remake of the Malayalam film of the same name. She will soon make her Bollywood debut as well.
Now, the makers have released the trailer of the film, and it promises an emotional, romantic drama.
The trailer starts with a rainy day and depicts the lead pair Gayathri and Vishal played by Priya Prakash Varrier and Sarjano Khalid. Vishal tells Gayathri, “When I saw you at the canteen today, I remembered our last Onam celebration. We bunking the class and sitting in the canteen during the rain, all those.” The trailer then cuts to different moments of college and break up.
In August, the makers released a video showing Priya in what looked like a compilation of shots from the film. Director Ranjith Sankar took to his official Instagram handle to unveil the screen test video of Priya Prakash Varrier, and the actress looked stunning in a simple churidar.

We all love to eat food, this film makes you passionate about cooking. The platform is dishing out entertaining content one after the other. Tadka is such an odd film there are two storylines running in parallel until they are invariable. The film forces the tale forward that’s not necessary. Taapsee will be seen as the same old character. We will see it once again Nana Patekar on the big screen.
Tadka: Plot
Tadka is a film set in Goa and revolves around the love story of two couples. One of them is a chef played by Nana Patekar. Food plays an important role in the story. The trailer starts with nana Patekar sitting with a girl who orders fresh lime soda without sugar and ice and he said in a sarcastic mood: “Nimbu chalega?” He has seen to be criticized by the others for rejecting the girl as she doesn’t like groundnut chutney instead asking the chef in her house to arrive along with him as he can prepare well for him.
The people around him make fun of giving so much importance to food. Things not starting off as a wrongly dialed number soon leads to the feeling between Tukaram who is an archaeologist and Madhura who is a radio jockey. A promotional song featuring Ali Fazal and Taapsee had released in 2019 but the movie could not be released at the time.
Tadka: Cast
ZEE5’s digital offering Tadka has prominent actors starring in it. The film of the romantic genre stars actors Taapsee Pannu, Ali Fazal, Nana Patekar, and Shriya Saran essaying the lead characters. It also stars Murali Sharma, Lillete Dubey, Naveen Kaushik, and Rajesh Sharma playing pivotal roles.
Tadka is directed by Prakash Raj. Tadka is said to be the official remake of the 2011 blockbuster hit Malayalam movie Salt N’ Pepper. Written by Surya Menon, and produced by Prakash Raj under Prakash Raj productions, and by Sameer Dixit and Jatish Varma under their Movie Makers Inc banner.
The movie has already been made in Tamil, Kannada, and Telugu. And now with Tadka the film has got a Hindi version too. It was remade in Tamil as Un Samayal Arayil, in Telugu as Ulavacharu Biryani, and in Kannada as Oggarane, respectively.
Furthermore, Prakash Raj has directed the remakes and has also acted in them. The music is composed by Ilaiyaraaja, Ankit Tiwari, Kapil Jangir, Anil Rubens, and Vivek Kar. From the poster, the Zee5 offering promises to be a tale of love with lots of Tadka. The caption on the poster reads, ‘tadka… Love is cooking. The Zee5 original will have a direct digital release.
Tadka: Release Date
The film will hit ZEE5 on 4th November 2022. On sharing a poster of the movie featuring the characters, Zee5 captioned their Instagram post as follows, “Kadhai garam karlo mere yaar, kyunki #PyaarKaTadka hai lagne ko tayyar!”
