AMD ships Ryzen 5 3600 CPUs in Ryzen 3 3200G packages in China

AMD ships Ryzen 5 3600 CPUs in Ryzen 3 3200G packages in China

An unusual thing has been spotted in the desktop CPU market is that in the entry-level AMD Ryzen 3 3200G processor boxes, a more powerful Ryzen 5 3600 CPU has been found. This very surprising to see Ryzen 3000 CPUs getting shipped in a Picasso based APU packaging, and this is not just one case but has occurred for an entire batch of Ryzen 5 3600 CPUs.

As reported by Hardware Times, a user on Facebook shared such weird experience, also the strange thing to notice is that both the serial number and the final seal on the box were replaced with correct one stating it to be a 6 core, 12 threaded Ryzen 5 3600 CPU.

It is speculated that this might have happened as a result of the high demand of the Ryzen 5 3600 CPUs due to the Chinese mid-year sale in June. So, it might have happened that due to shortage of boxes, the Ryzen 5 3600 processors were shipped in the Ryzen 3 3200G boxes to meet the demand somehow, this is obvious as the Ryzen 5 3600 is the best selling CPU globally now.

So, if you have thought of purchasing a Ryzen 5 3600 at the price of the Ryzen 3 3200G then you are mistaken because AMD China team is smart enough to keep the pricing of the original Ryzen 5 3600 as we see in the seal. This is rare thing you could have ever imagined…🤣

Antoine Griezmann’s medical reports show that he suffered an injury last night

Another major blow to FC Barcelona as they lose another attacker in the form of Antoine Griezmann due to last match, where he was criticized heavily for not having made the sure goal. He was subbed off after half time and he was looking tired and in pain towards the end of first half and today’s medical reports have shown that he has suffered a muscle injury in the quadriceps of his right leg.

This can hurt Barcelona’s last two matches but more concerning point is whether he will be available in the clash between Napoli and the Catalans at the Camp Nou on 9th August. Griezmann netted the very important away goal in the first leg and he is important to the team in the second leg as well but only in future we could get some predictions about his recovery time.

Villarreal 1-4 Barcelona: A brilliant Saurez, intelligent Messi & stunning Griezmann, youngsters shine again

Here’s the club statement:

Tests this morning have shown that first-team player Antoine Griezmann has a muscle injury in the quadriceps of his right leg. He is therefore not available for selection at the present time and the evolution of the injury will condition his availability.

Though he has not shown his total capabilities this season but his game against Villarreal stunned the world and showed how lethal the World Cup winner can be. Till the game against Villarreal, Setien did not make use of Griezmann in some games which led to the draw which actually will cost the league title eventually but now that he is injured this is a major concern for the Catalans, especially when Saurez doesn’t look that sharp as he was before his long-term injury.

Antoine Griezmann is the key to bring Neymar back to Camp Nou

Undoubtedly, Griezmann has been one of the fittest player in the team with 46 appearances along with 15 goals and 4 assists. The Frenchman’s work rate is excellent and he not only helps the team to score goals but also drops deep to defend as well. It is only recently he has found the perfect position to play along with Messi & Saurez and now he has suffered a muscle injury in his right leg.

It will be interesting to see if the Frenchman returns before LaLiga ends, which seems most unlikely, and very important if he can make into the Champions League. It is because even though Barcelona have another striker in the form of Martin Braithwaite but the Danish international cannot make its way in the Champions League as he was an emergency signing and Dembele also is not available due to injury.

Sir Alex Ferguson would have stayed another 10 years at Manchester United if they had managed to bring in two players he wanted

Sir Alex Ferguson is perhaps the greatest ever manager, if not in the whole world then at least in the Premier League. He is the longest-serving Manchester United manager. He was appointed as manager in November 1986 and continued till the 2012-2013 season.

During his 26 years with Manchester United, he won 38 trophies – 13 Premier League titles, 5 FA Cups, and 2 UEFA Champions League titles. He has won more trophies than any other manager in the history of football.

ferguson evra Sir Alex Ferguson would have stayed another 10 years at Manchester United if they had managed to bring in two players he wanted

Manchester United dominated the Premier League during his era. Ferguson even won the league in his last season. But his sudden departure hasn’t gone down well with the club and they have completely lost their form. They even failed to be in the top 4 spots in the Premier League for many seasons.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has somewhat steadied the ship recently but they haven’t still won the Premier League since Ferguson’s retirement.

Sir Alex Ferguson wanted to coach United for another 10 years. He told this to Patrice Evra just 2 weeks before his retirement in 2013. But what caused him to make such a huge U-turn and retire from coaching?

According to Patrice Evra, Ferguson would have stayed if Manchester United had a successful transfer window. Ferguson told he just need these two players to win the Champions League once again.

ronaldo bale Sir Alex Ferguson would have stayed another 10 years at Manchester United if they had managed to bring in two players he wanted

The two players Sir Alex Ferguson wanted to bring in at United are:

Cristiano Ronaldo
Gareth Bale

Alex Ferguson said if Manchester United had a 99% chance of bringing back Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid and sign Gareth Bale from Tottenham Hotspur, he would continue coaching at United.

Cristiano Ronaldo even confessed to Evra that he had said yes to the boss [Sir Alex Ferguson], which means Ronaldo was ready to come back to United in 2013.

But sadly, Manchester United failed in the transfer window. Ronaldo remained at Real Madrid and Gareth Bale left Tottenham Hotspur only to join Real Madrid. The duo won 4 Champions League titles at Real Madrid, before Ronaldo left for Juventus in 2018. Bale has also become an outcast at Madrid now and is on the verge of leaving the Spanish giants.

ferguson ronaldo Sir Alex Ferguson would have stayed another 10 years at Manchester United if they had managed to bring in two players he wanted

As United failed and Ferguson’s wife Cathy was suffering, he decided to retire. Patrice Evra recalls what it was on the day Ferguson retired. He called in all the players and said: “I’m really sorry. I’m going to retire because my wife needs me.” Ferguson even apologised to Van Persie and Kagawa because he brought them to the club recently.

If United could have done what Ferguson wished for, they would probably have been the most successful club of this century. Ferguson wanted to bring back Cristiano so badly. He shared a strong bond with him and felt he can do wonders with the Portuguese.

South Korea nears 7 million 5G users at the end of May 2020

One of the most innovative countries in Asia, South Korea was one of the first to adopt the 5G networking and telecom operator in the country launched 5G services back in April 2019. The country houses a lot of tech giants like Samsung, LG who lead the technological innovations and for the country to have such a huge number of 5G subscribers is not at all surprising.

South Korea ended May with almost 6.9 million 5G subscribers as per Korean press reported citing official data. The country saw around 536,997 new 5G subscribers in May compared to the previous month, exceeding the previous monthly record of 520,478 reported in March, the Ministry of Science and ICT said.

Obviously, 5G is the future because of its speed and bandwidth, you can get faster internet speed on your mobile than from your broadband. From stutter-free gaming to heavy downloads in seconds, 5G is changing the game totally which is why there’s a rise in demand for 5G capable smartphones which its native companies like Samsung have in huge quantities.

South Korea, in fact, has a lot of subscribers still to bring to 5G network as 6.9 million represents only 10% of the 69.43 million mobile service lines in the country. South Korea rolled out the world’s first commercial 5G network on April 3, 2019, with the nation’s three carriers — SK Telecom Co., KT Corp. and LG Uplus Corp.

SK Telecom is actually South Korea’s largest mobile carrier and it has some 3.11 million 5G customers in May, accounting for 45.2% of the total while KT Corp’s 5G subscriber number stood at 2.08 million as of the end of May, followed by LG Uplus, with 1.68 million as per the latest ministry data.

The service provided by 5G carriers attracts more users overtime and as the local operators had already deployed over 115,000 5G base stations across the country, South Korea is progressing at a lightning speed.

Furthermore, the South Korean government said that the country’s three major telecom carriers had agreed to invest KRW 4 trillion ($3.4 billion) in their 5G networks during the first half of this year. This will ultimately help to install additional 5G equipment for expanding the coverage of current 5G networks across the country.

These South Korean telecoms also plan to commercialize an ultrafast mmWave 5G network this year as it is currently restricted to business-to-business segment only. To standardize the faster mmWave 5G network you need more capital, that’s why the mmWave 5G network for personal smart devices is likely to start next year or in 2022.

Messi equals Xavi’s record of most assists in a single LaLiga season

After yesterday’s slender 0-1 victory over Valladolid, Messi made a new record, as if he is used to because with his playmaking role this season he has equalled the club legend Xavi’s record of most assists. Xavi had a record of 20 assists in a single LaLiga campaign in 2008/09 season which is the highest ever.

Yesterday, Messi setup an important assist for Arturo Vidal which marked his new assist record in LaLiga and he now has 24 assists in total, including Copa del Rey and Champions League, just five short of his all-time record in all competition, the 29 goals he set up in 2014/15.

Apart from providing the most number of assists this season, Messi is also the top scorer in La Liga with 22 goals which is insane but not a huge surprise from a player of his calibre. Apart from being a goalscorer, Messi’s best thing is he likes to drop deep and create chances for everyone, this makes him so special and helping the team to set up goals as well.

This season he has 2 more matches in his pocket and it is pretty clear that if he makes more assists, he will even break Xavi’s record, which he will do most likely. This will make Messi the most number of assist provider in a single season of LaLiga history and for Barcelona as well, also being the top goal scorer as well. So, what do you think, will he be able to break Xavi’s record, tell us in the comments below… 😉
