AMD to work with MediaTek to make custom Wi-Fi chip for upcoming notebooks

0

The semiconductor giant AMD has been in the market for years now but hasn’t been able to diversify its market except its CPUs and GPUs which Intel did to make itself a giant apart from selling its chips. So, as the market is changing and the internet is playing huge role getting better Wi-Fi speeds has become the priority for most customers out there.

So, as per the new norm, people are switching to the faster and reliable Wi-Fi 6 but using it requires an 802.11ax Wi-Fi 6 NIC controller. This Wi-Fi 6 market has been dominated by Intel or Realtek as its wireless NICs are the most used inside notebooks even if it’s powered by an AMD processor, however, due to their costs and exclusiveness, AMD has lost a lot of clients who require far more superior Wi-Fi speeds.

Even the motherboard makers opt for Intel in this matter even if it’s for an AMD CPU, so, AMD had to come with some sort of solution quickly and that’s why they have partnered with another chip giant MediaTek. They have a lot of experience having a large portfolio of its chips powering Wi-Fi 6 routers and even TVs or smartphones as well.

Intel’s own brand NICs even comes with vPro feature-set that offers end-to-end management solution, securing the network whilst providing faster speeds for professional customers. AMD has gone a lot ahead in terms of performance with its Ryzen PRO lineup, however, there are few tweaks that it still has to make that includes developing its own custom Wi-Fi chip.

So, AMD will incorporate WLAN controllers of its own and integrate into their wide range of hardware that will not only be used in the upcoming notebooks but also can be used by motherboard vendors. So, to help speed up this process, AMD will be using MediaTek’s experience to solve the toughest part – the web of IP to make standalone WLAN controllers. This makes sense as AMD wants to provide AMD WLAN controllers could build on existing MediaTek IP blocks.

The QLC SSD demand is likely to increase on both the enterprise & consumer level

0

The SSD market recently has exploded recently and people are opting for the faster solid-state disks more than ever because of their blazing speeds and efficiently. Almost all laptops these days use SSD to make them faster, every PC build uses SSDs as boot drives, and every enterprise offers both SATA and NVMe SSDs for their customers who need everything faster in this 21st century.

So, with demand, the production has increased as well and we are seeing low-price SSDs and a lot of variants with different speeds targeted towards different sets of users. As we know, the single-level cell (SLC) SSD is the most basic type of SSD as they accept one bit per memory cell, however, SLCs are one the fastest type of SSD.

Intel launches new faster 665p NVMe SSDs with 2nd Gen QLC technology

While quad-level cell (QLC) SDD drives can write four bits per cell, making the performance faster with some caching hiccups, although it is getting improved with days. These major chipmakers are now ramping up their production for QLC NAND flash output and are all set to soon penetrate at a faster pace into the markets not only for enterprise-level but also for the consumer-level storage devices, according to sources of Digitimes.

This also comes from the fact that QLC NAND-based SSDs are much more in demand for data center and other enterprise usages since 2020 for higher capacities and lower-cost SATA storage devices. QLC has helped to drive a more approachable price point helping to narrow the gap between a traditional HDD and solid state storage. 

QLC SSDs are also finding its way into consumer-level solutions as well from manufacturers like Crucial, Intel, Seagate, and others, helping to reduce costs and increase the speeds.

PREMIER LEAGUE 2020-21 SEASON PREVIEW: Are Arsenal ready to reclaim Champions League qualification?

0

Mikel Arteta’s side saw him claim two trophies in the space of 3 weeks, and signs are looking promising for them ahead of the upcoming season. Ever since the departure of Unai Emery, there were question marks on the credibility and reputation of Mikel Arteta of whether he would be able to do justice to the manager’s job. But since taking charge he has been instrumental in a few victories and has also managed to give good input on some shrewd signings that have been wrapped up in the transfer market. So can Arsenal attain the central objective that the board would have asked him to do – qualify for the Champions League?

Transfer activity

In an effort to shore up the defensive side of things, Arsenal have had a mixture of permanent signings so far. With William Saliba’s loan ending and having made Pablo Mari and Cedric Soares’ loan moves permanent, the Gunners also completed a transfer for 22-year old centre back Gabriel Magalhaes from Lille. They are also rumoured to be looking at Thomas Partey from Atletico Madrid as well as Houssem Aouar from Lyon, meanwhile, they have extended Dani Ceballos’ loan in a midfield revamping campaign. Things so far though, are looking rosy for Arsenal fans in terms of the market.

Strength

Mikel Arteta having received tutelage from Pep Guardiola himself, also believes in a similar style of attacking football and pressing the opposition to force mistakes. They have thus far not had any major problems finding the back of the net, but the real positive seems to be in the fact that Arsenal have been more defensively composed under Arteta than under his predecessor. In the 15 games that Arteta has managed in the Premier League, Arsenal have conceded just 12 goals. Supporters can only hope that with a host of defensive signings, they would look to be even more solid at the back

Weakness

Unfortunately, what seems to be a newfound strength has also historically proven to be a weakness for Arsenal. In a much more micro perspective, Arsenal did not have the best of away records last season and conceded first due to self-induced errors and a lack of simple communicational organisation at the back. There also seems to be a problem for Arteta of how he can get the front three of Aubameyang, Lacazette and Pepe to play as a functional unit rather than just heavily depending on Aubameyang doing the hard work, which was the case last season.

aubameyang PREMIER LEAGUE 2020-21 SEASON PREVIEW: Are Arsenal ready to reclaim Champions League qualification?

Key players

It goes without saying that star forward and captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang would prove to be the inspirational figure for all the Arsenal players. His wavy trickery and sublime skills have placed him in the elite bracket of Premier League strikers, while also achieving an impressive feat of scoring 20+ goals in consecutive seasons. Aside from the talisman, it is also set to be a big season for Nicolas Pepe, who has not exactly taken the league by storm. The 72-million pounds record signing will look to contribute much more in the 2020-21 season and have a better individual season in terms of numbers.

Predicted table finish

5th Place: Arsenal definitely have enough to go about themselves in a new regime under Arteta. Their test of mental strength will, however, be to the fact of whether they can do it consistently and sadly, they might be slightly behind in those terms amongst the other contenders.
