XMG Apex 15 will be the world’s first Ryzen 9 3950X powered laptop

1

In the past few years, we have seen quite a few desktop-grade CPUs packed into the laptop form factor and mostly it has been done with Intel CPUs. With time things have turned round and AMD has jumped into the performance leadership and the Ryzen 3000 processors delivers better price-to-performance ratio than Intel’s 9th gen CPUs.

OEMs are quickly adapting their products to the AMD trend and Schenker, a German OEM that specializes in custom-built systems, will be the first one to make a laptop featuring the humongous Ryzen 9 3950X, the fastest desktop CPU ever.

Schenker’s XMG Apex 15 laptop features a custom B450 motherboard which supports desktop-grade AM4 CPUs along with up to 64 GB of DDR4-3200 RAM.

You can either opt-in for the Ryzen 5 3600 or Ryzen 7 3700X processors, while if you need more power you can go up to the Ryzen 9 3900X and 3950X chips. All of the CPUs have been limited to 65 W while the Ryzen 9 models will run in Eco mode in order to achieve lower TDPs.

The increased power requirements will easily diminish the meagre 62 Wh battery included, especially when boosting the beastly Ryzen 9 3950X. These laptops are a bit bulkier than your average laptop, but are lighter than any of the Intel-based counterparts, with maximum weights of around 5.7 lbs.

Schenker has used Clevo’s latest barebones with 15.6-inch 144 Hz 1080p IPS displays while on the GPU front, users can choose between the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 or RTX 2070.

As this is a B450 motherboard, it doesn’t feature PCIe 4.0 but there’s support for PCIe 3.0 x4 and x2 NVMe/SATA 3 SSDs along with a 2.5-inch HDD bay for up to 6 TB of storage. The ports include: 1x USB-A 2.0, 2x USB-A 3.2 Gen2, 1x USB-C 3.2 Gen2 (DP compatible), mini DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.0b video outputs, GbE jack plus audio outs.

The Ryzen 5 3600 variant with 8 GB of RAM, 256 GB SSD and RTX 2060 will cost 1,337 Euros ($1,510), while a Ryzen 9 3950X powered variant sporting 32 GB of RAM, 1 TB NVMe SSD and RTX 2070 costs 2,631 Euros ($2,882).

A full-fledged model will cost you more than 3,500 Euros ($3,850), all custom laptop orders are supposed to take up to 10 weeks for shipping. Check out: Bestware.

This increased tax rate on smartphones will pose a serious danger in the economy of the country which is already is affected and getting the revenue by imposing more taxes on smartphones will affect the whole industry and all those attached to it.

Apart from Realme, Xiaomi, and Oppo Apple and Samsung are also rumored to increase the smartphone prices by 5% to balance the effects of the new GST rate. Surely, the new increased GST rate will pose a negative impact on buyers and will make devices even more costly which in fact brings a huge impact on the fast-paced digital revolution in India.

Robin Van Persie opens up about the ruthless nature of Sir Alex Ferguson

0

Robin Van Persie spoke about about an incident which happened in 2013. The incident potrays the ruthless nature of Manchester United great Sir Alex Ferguson.

Manchester United were leading the Premier League campaign by 15 points. But they lost the Manchester derby which cut their lead to 12 points. After the loss, Ferguson blasted two unnamed United players in the dressing room.

Van Persie told SoFoot: “Coach Ferguson, he knew when to act, when for example to put pressure on with discipline.”

“In my first season, we were 15 points ahead in the league, and we welcomed Manchester City, hoping to seal the title. If we won, we would be 18 points ahead, but we lost. This still left us 12 points ahead, and most managers would not have dramatised the situation.”

“The boss on the other hand, he got fired up. It was really heated. Two guys from the team went out after the loss and, the day after the match, he had pictures of the two players posted on the dressing room walls from their night out . And he said to the whole team, ‘Ok guys, if we don’t win the title, know that it’s because of those two a*sholes that chose to go out’.”

“Yeah, I have the names, but I really can’t give them. They got scolded by the coach, but it stayed in the dressing room. It was incredible. He had pasted lots of different photos, he had traced the evening of the two players hour by hour, 2 am, 3 am, 4 am as if to emphasise the extent of their stupidity.”

van persie sir alex ferguson

“He didn’t stop there, he warned us all: ‘Guys, listen well, if we don’t win the championship, it’s because these two decided to go out and have fun. From now on, if I see a player come out before the trophy is lifted, that player is out of the team’.  He was ruthless.”

“‘I don’t care about who you are, how many trophies you’ve won so far. If you leave before the end of the season, you leave the team and I have you transferred’.  After that speech, we went to training, and it was the two hardest workouts of my life. Twelve points ahead and that’s his reaction. This time of the season was ideal for a rant, Sir Alex did not miss the opportunity.”

Manchester United went on to win the Premier League title that season. This incident highlighted Ferguson’s relentless desire to maintain only the highest standards at Old Trafford.

Rio Ferdinand excited about new Manchester United target Saul Niguez

The transfer saga of Paul Pogba is going on for a long time. Manchester United now want to finish off the matter. They have already chosen their target who would replace Pogba in the midfield.

According to a report by The Star, Manchester United could trigger the staggering £135m buy-out clause to sign Saul Niguez from Atletico Madrid, if Paul Pogba is sold.

The Spain international is a world class player. He has a successful career both with club and country. Till now, he has made 286 appearances for Atletico Madrid and has scored 38 goals and provided 18 assists in all competitions.

What stands apart for Saul is his tactical awareness and his versatility! He usually plays in the midfield but can also play in the right-hand side midfield or in the holding midfielder role. He has also played as a left-back in times of crisis at Madrid.

Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand is excited about the potential arrival of Saul Niguez, who he thinks will be a perfect fit for the United midfield along with Bruno Fernandes, McTominay and Fred.

Ferdinand told: “He’s [Saul Niguez] another one, what a player. I’ve been harping on about Saul Niguez for a few years now. I think he’s a major player. Composed, calm, great left foot, lovely conductor, he can score goals, tactically he’s very aware.”

“You can see Simeone, he gets his teams really well set up and he’s in the middle orchestrating and dictating things. Saul Niguez is huge and it’s come out in the papers this week that Man Utd are interested in him, but we’ll have to wait and see.”

The arrival of Saul is largely dependent on the sale of Paul Pogba. Pogba has been linked with a move away for a long time. So if they can sell him for around £100m, United would only then think of spending such a huge amount on Saul. But he’s worth every penny. He has shown that in Madrid.

Manchester City winger Raheem Sterling is open for a Liverpool return

England international Raheem Sterling is having a very successful career after he swapped Liverpool with Manchester City. He has won the Premier League two consecutive times with City in the last two seasons.

Liverpool have finally unlocked their full potential under Jurgen Klopp. They won the Champions League last season and have a 25-points lead in the Premier League this season. They would have got the Premier League trophy in their hands by now if the Coronavirus hadn’t played the spoilsport.

Premier League has been suspended with the season been extended indefinitely. So, it’s just a matter of time till Liverpool end their 30-years long wait for the Premier League trophy.

Manchester City, on the other hand, are on the brink of two seasons Champions League ban. They have appealed but whether the ban will be uplifted is still in doubt. This Champions League ban can result in a lot of top players making their transfer wishes.

The entourage of Raheem Sterling have told L’Equipe that he is open to a return to Liverpool.

“Even though Raheem is attached to Manchester City, he has not forgotten about Liverpool, because that is where he was forged as a man and a player. Obviously, there were some difficulties at the moment at which he left, but today, he is doing his work and everything is possible.”

Liverpool would be closely following this situation because Sadio Mane is attracting interest from top European clubs. So if Mane goes out of Anfield, then their former player Sterling is one of the favourites to replace him. Sterling has become a world-class player who can add value to any top European club.

Xiaomi increases smartphone prices to counter 50% GST hike

It was coming, and now finally on April 1st smartphone companies have started to increase the prices of the smartphones because the goods and services tax (GST) on mobile phones was hiked from 12% to 18% in India in March. The first brand to increase the smartphone price is Xiaomi, the handset maker has announced a price hike for its entire portfolio.

This will be a huge blow for smartphone lovers because from now on you have to pay even more taxes for your new smartphones. Xiaomi India MD Manu Kumar Jain last night announced this news on Twitter.

Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro with 108MP Penta lens, SD730G launched in China

The caption of his tweet says – “After much deliberation & in keeping with #Xiaomi policy of maintaining <5% margin on our hardware products, we will be increasing prices of our products.”

The GST rate hike comes in effect from today and Xiaomi has now taken the necessary measures to counter the effect on its business. The main reasons for the price hike are cited in the open letter in which Jain mentions that both the GST rate hike along with depreciation in Rupee vs US Dollar rates has led to this major decision.

Xiaomi also clarified that they are determined to stick to less than 5% profit margin on all of its products. As the Chinese giant tries offer its devices at the so-called “honest prices.” So there wasn’t much choice left for Xiaomi but to increase the retail prices of its smartphones.

All the Mi, Redmi and Poco devices will get price hikes and the newer prices for some of the smartphones have already gone into effect on the e-commerce platforms. 

The new Redmi Note 9 Pro which was launched at a starting price of Rs.12,999 in March now starts at Rs.14,999 for the 4GB+64GB base variant which is damn expensive now but the Poco X2 has received a minor price hike as its Rs.15,999 starting price has been incresed Rs. 16,999 on Flipkart.

The Redmi K20 series, on the other hand, has received a huge price hike as well. The Redmi K20 and K20 Pro now start at Rs. 21,999 and Rs. 26,999 respectively which was previously Rs.19,999 and Rs.24,999 just for the base variants.

This increased tax rate on smartphones will pose a serious danger in the economy of the country which is already is affected and getting the revenue by imposing more taxes on smartphones will affect the whole industry and all those attached to it.

Apart from Xiaomi, Oppo is rumoured to increase the smartphone prices by 5% to balance the effects of the new GST rate. Surely, the new increased GST rate will pose a negative impact on buyers and will make devices even more costly which in fact bring a huge impact towards the fast paced digital revolution in India.
