After having the tough year of 2019, the Chinese smartphone giant is not stopping its gear in 2020. It seems they are up to launching their new flagship SoC in 2020 that is likely to be the year of 5G smartphones.
In September this year, they launched the Kiri 990 and Kirin 990 5G chipsets powering their flagship Mate 30 series. Although the 7nm chip seems to be powerful enough but not against the likes of Qualcomm and Apple.
The Kirin 990 chip was built on TSMC’s 7nm node, the same which is used by Apple and AMD. Huawei chips do have a strong reputation for its performance in the market, but the Kirin 990 failed against the likes of Snapdragon 855+.
So to make a stronger SoC for its flagship devices in 2020, Huawei seems to be making the new Kirin 1020 codenamed Baltimore which apparently suggests providing 50% better performance than the Kirin 990.
Though we have a fair idea that the Kirin 1020 will use the ARM Cortex-A78 cores, skipping the Cortex-A77 cores which will be used by the coming flagship SoCs such as MediaTek 1000 Dimensity or the Snapdragon 865. So using a superior core architecture might lead to better performance, can be up to 50% as well.
No regarding the specs have been received but yes this advanced SoC can use TSMC 7++ node or its upcoming 5nm node to improve both performance and efficiency. Nothing has been leaked regarding the GPU, but you can expect a big upgrade for it as well.
Dell is here with its new G5 gaming desktop series, powered by the latest 9th gen Intel CPUs and NVIDIA RTX graphics. This G5 5090 gaming desktop series was previously was launched in Gamescom 2019 and now it’s here in India.
Dell has a premium gaming desktop line under the name of Alienware but they did lack great gaming PC at a budget. With the new G5 Gaming Desktop range, Dell is targeting more gamers who have a low budget yet they want a great gaming PC.
This gaming desktop line is upgradable for users who always want to stay updated. These are based on Intel’s H370 chipset which means that these CPUs lack the support for overclocking which again reduces the TDP quite significantly.
The company seems to expand its gaming desktop portfolio in India with the latest desktop series. Inheriting the features from the Alienware series, the Dell G5 gaming desktop promises extreme gaming performance.
Specifications
Sadly there’s no AMD option in India and you can only get up to octa-core Intel Core i7-9700K that peaks at 4.9GHz and has 12MB cache. On the other hand, for graphics, you have both the option of NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1600-series and GeForce RTX 2000-series GPUs.
Dell uses a single 480 Watt PSU though powering a heavy i9-9700K on the back as well as the latest NVIDIA GTX/RTX GPUs.
On the graphics front, you can configure with both NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 GPU with 4GB of GDDR5 memory and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti GPU with 6GB of GDDR6 graphics memory. The top-end model packs the powerful NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 GPU with 6GB of GDDR6 graphics memory.
You can configure the desktop up to 64 GB of DDR4-2666 memory, a 1 TB M.2 PCIe SSD, a 2 TB hard drive (or use two of them), a Wi-Fi 6 AX1650 network card, Gigabit Ethernet, and Bluetooth 5.0.
Unlike it’s premium Alienware brothers the G5 series do lack liquid cooling but there’s the solid air cooling with heat pipes that ensure the desktop doesn’t heat up that much during prolonged going sessions.
For the ports we have, 1 x microphone jack, 1 x headphone jack, 2 x USB 2.0 ports, 1 x USB 3.1 port, and 1 x USB 3.1 Type-C port at the front. Over at the back, it hosts 4 x USB 3.1 ports, 2 x USB 2.0 ports, RJ45 Ethernet port, 1 x LFE surround port, and 1 x side surround port, while the number of HDMI ports vary depending on the model.

Cristiano Ronaldo would like a reunion with his former club Real Madrid in the Champions League final.
Juventus are through to the Champions League round of 16 and so are Real Madrid. Ronaldo scored a goal in his side’s 2-0 win over Bayer Leverkusen on Wednesday as they finished their Group D campaign with five wins and a draw.
Cristiano Ronaldo has spent nine memorable years in Real Madrid. He had a trophy-laden nine seasons. He won 4 Ballon d’Or during his time at the Bernabeu. Ronaldo also helped Madrid to win against Juventus in the 2017 Champions League final. He won a hat-trick of Champions League with Real Madrid in 2018. It was his 4th Champions League trophy in Madrid. After that, he suddenly headed to Turin in the summer of 2018.
Real Madrid are one of five sides Juventus could face in the round of 16, along with Chelsea, Borussia Dortmund, Lyon and Tottenham. But Ronaldo is hoping to avoid his former club for now.
Ronaldo told Sky Sport Italia: “Real are an extraordinary team, but if you ask me, I’d rather face them later. In the final? I would sign up now to meet them in the final.”
He was facing a slight injury in the last few weeks but has now fully recovered. He has now scored in his three previous matches. He said: “I feel good, the physical problems I had have passed. It was four weeks that I was playing with a little pain, but now I’m fine.”
“Whether I play with Dybala or Higuain, it is great. I like playing with both of them, we have a lot of fun on the pitch, but the coach is the one who makes the decisions and we must respect them. But I can’t deny that we have a lot of fun.”
“The team is doing well. We played very well in the second half [against Leverkusen] and are first in the group. Things have improved for me too. I have more confidence and hope to continue like this.”

Carlo Ancelotti helped Napoli to progress to the Champions League round of 16 but he was still sacked by Napoli.
Napoli’s season has been full of internal friction and there were rumours before Tuesday’s Champions League game that Ancelotti would either resign or will be sacked regardless of the result.
Napoli won 4-0 victory over Genk on Tuesday evening, but Napoli have still sacked Carlo Ancelotti.
La Societa Sportiva Calcio Napoli ha deciso di revocare l’incarico di responsabile tecnico della prima squadra al signor Carlo Ancelotti. Rimangono intatti i rapporti di amicizia, stima e rispetto reciproco tra la società, il suo presidente Aurelio De Laurentiis e Carlo Ancelotti
The official statement from the club read: “SSC Napoli have decided to part company with first-team coach Carlo Ancelotti. The friendship, esteem and mutual respect between the club, president Aurelio De Laurentiis and Carlo Ancelotti remain intact.”
Ancelotti leaves Napoli with the club 7th in Serie A but their win over Genk means they have qualified for the Champions League last 16 as group runners-up.
Napoli have now appointed former Milan head coach Gennaro Gattuso on an initial six-month contract with an option to renew, although an automatic one-year extension will be triggered if he secures Champions League qualification next season.
The deal is worth €1.5m until next summer, with Gattuso set to make an additional €3m if he stays in charge in 2020/21 season.
Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis welcomed Gattuso on Twitter on Wednesday evening.
According to many club players, Ancelotti was a “special person” for them. After his sacking, the players have paid tribute to him.
Club captain Lorenzo Insigne had an up-and-down relationship with Ancelotti during October. But he has written on his Instagram account after Ancelotti’s sacking: “Thank you boss – it was an honour to have worked with you and your staff. In these two years I met a special person. I wish you the best!”
Spanish midfielder Fabian Ruiz has also developed into an important player for Napoli and Spain under Ancelotti. He wrote: “Boss, thanks for everything you did. You have been a special person for me, I wish you the best, wherever you go you deserve the best. A big hug and good luck.”
Allan added: “You were a special person, much more than a coach… I thank you for everything you’ve done in almost two years together… I wish you and all the staff good luck.”
Kostas Manolas, Arkadiusz Milik, Kalidou Koulibaly and Hirving Lozano were among the others to post their thanks to Ancelotti. It seems the three-time Champions League winning coach has retained the respect of his players.
Ancelotti tweeted on Wednesday: “I would like to personally thank the club, its employees, my players, my staff and the president for the opportunity to live an unforgettable experience in a wonderful city such as Naples.”
Gattuso will now replace his former coach. He has played under Ancelotti in Milan. He has won the Champions League as a player with the Rossoneri under Ancelotti in 2003 and 2007.
He has been without a club since being fired by Milan at the end of last season after they missed out on a place in the Champions League by just one point. He will now look to help Napoli to get as far as they can in the Champions League and also secure a top 4 finish in Serie A.

Today, technology has become more
ingratiated in every aspect of our lives. In the sports industry, technological
advancements have come as a heaven-sent blessing. It has allowed fans to
consume vast amounts of the sports they love in real-time through inventive
ways. Additionally, we have experienced huge leaps in performance thanks to the
technology used during training or competition.
Even though every new technology has created significant changes in the sporting arena, what are some of the technologies that will have a more profound impact on the industry in 2019 and beyond?
Social media live streaming
As a sports enthusiast, you always
experience an itch to be in the loop with the happenings in your favourite
sport. Unlike in the past, when you had to rely on mainstream media to get
sports updates and amplify this itch, social media will today sort you out in
seconds.
Here is the juicy part – apart from giving
you updates and allowing you to engage in candid discussions about a particular
sport with like-minded individuals, social media channels have joined the
bandwagon of broadcasting sporting events.
In 2016, Twitter secured broadcasting rights
to stream NFL games live. Since then, other social media sites have followed
suit.
As a sports lover, this should come as good
news. Instead of paying a premium to enjoy the games you love. All you will be
required to do is go to social media, get real-time news, enjoy live coverage
and in-play discussion, and engage
in the analysis of a match – without paying a cent!
If you are a Kentucky Derby aficionado, you
can enjoy free horse race streaming as
you check minute-to-minute odds on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.
Wearable Technology
Wearable
tech is not a new term to you if you have come across wristbands and
smartwatches that allow you to keep track of the progress of your workout.
Nonetheless, this technology stretches beyond what we know and what we see in
commercials. It has a massive impact on different aspects of the sports
industry, including safety, analysis, and performance.
Under Armour’s E39 shirt is one example of
a wearable technology that will take the sporting industry to a whole new
level. This shirt works as a virtual coach, by tracking the movement of joints
during exercise, collecting data, and providing live feedback on heart rate,
metabolism, and lung capacity.
Heddoko’s smart compression trousers and
shirts also work in a similar fashion and give real-time information on how an
athlete can avoid muscle injury.
Wearable technology will not only go a long way in enhancing performance, but it will also be life-saving because it will lead to a significant drop in sport-related injuries.
Drug Testing Technology
We cannot give credit to a specific
technology that has made it possible for organisations such as the World Anti
Doping Agency to curb the use of performance-enhancing drugs in sports. Thanks
to a collection of technologies, the once endemic practice have now been put to
rest.
Technology has, therefore, gone a long way in levelling the playing field in all sports, and have helped wipe out the most notable drug cheats in the globe such as Dyane Chambers and Lance Armstrong.

Video-refereeing
Today, most sports have adopted the use of
video refereeing and in-game video analysis, which has ensured that decisions
are made swiftly and accurately, thus increasing the fairness in every
competition.
Notable sports that have embraced this
technology include the NCAAF
college games and the NFL, tennis, and rugby. Soccer, which enjoys a
massive fan base across the globe, has also boarded the ship and has continued
to leap heavily from the Video Assistant Referee. The technology took centre
stage during the 2018 world cup in Russia and is now used in Champions League
and the England Premier League.
Even though critics argue that video refereeing has taken a huge chunk of fun out of the sport, we cannot ignore the fact that it has made the industry fairer and has prompted players to follow the rules of the game or get caught and face the consequences.
Data Analytics
Data Analytics is another technology that
has taken the sports industry by a storm. It allows athletes and teams to
analyse millions of data points, and take note of the smallest successes or
failures and make adjustments where necessary.
With data analytics, coaches and other
technical experts are able to individually study every element of an athlete’s
performance, identify where improvements can be made, and determine what can be
done to boost an athlete’s performance.
It has been reported that it is this
technology that increased the performance of the British Olympic team during
the last three Olympics.
Conclusion
There are far more than five technologies
that have changed the world of sports, including ingestible thermometer pills,
GPS golf balls, prosthetic devices for disabled athletes, e-Ticketing, HANs
device in motorsports, hawk-eye technology, and many more.
All these technologies have created a win-win situation among all players in the sports sector, since they have not only enhanced the performance of sportspeople and their coaches, but have allowed fans to enjoy a better viewing experience, get tickets at the comfort of their homes, and understand games better.
New AMD Navi GPUs are on the verge of its announcement this week, the much speculated Radeon RX 5500 XT has got some pretty solid leaks.
Videocardz somehow managed to get the custom variants of this GPU by various AMD’s board partners including the likes of Gigabyte and AsRock. The images of the retail GPUs that have leaked include ASRock Challenger RX 5500 XT, Gigabyte RX 5500 XT Gaming OC, Gigabyte RX 5500 XT OC, MSI GAMING RX 5500 XT and MSI MECH RX 5500 XT.
AMD has positioned it’s OEM exclusive Radeon RX 5500 against the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650, and it gives performance lead of up to 50% in multiple titles. The RX 5500 XT does not have a huge difference with it brother, coming with the same amount of stream processors but with higher clock speeds.

The Red team is trying to compete against the likes of GTX 1660 with this new GPU and provide smooth 1080p gaming experience even at ultra settings. Here are the complete specs of the upcoming GPU:
128-bit bus interface and a cumulative bandwidth of 224 GB/s.
The AMD Radeon RX 5500XT is supposed to carry on the performance once provided by the RX 580. Here are custom leaked variants of this GPU:
ASRock Radeon RX 5500 XT Challenger D 8G OC
ASRock as been a loyal partner to AMD, providing us with great GPUs and so there’s no exception with the RX 5500 XT. It features a dual-fan, dual-slot slot design along with 8GB of GDDR6 VRAM, a black shroud with yellow trim, and a silver backplate.
It will come factory overclocked with 1737 MHz clock speed, utilizes 3x DisplayPort connectors and 1x HDMI connector for display output. ASRock will also be offering a 4GB variant of the 5500 XT Challenger D GPU.
GIGABYTE Radeon RX 5500 XT GAMING OC
GIGABYTE is preparing a triple-fan 5500 XT variant to be known as the RX 5500 XT GAMING OC featuring GIGABYTE’s WindForce 3X cooler.
The 5500 XT GAMING OC GPU is a factory overclocked GPU with the same overclocked frequency of 1737 MHz and will be available in both 8GB and 4GB GDDR6 memory variants. The GPU will feature 3x DisplayPort connectors and 1x HDMI connectors for display output.
GIGABYTE Radeon RX 5500 XT OC
Another GPU from GIGABYTE that will be normal GPU without RGB, featuring a dual-fan cooler, a black and silver shroud design. Like the RX 5500 XT GAMING OC, it carries 3x DisplayPort connectors and 1x HDMI connector and will be available in either 4GB or 8GB GDDR6 memory variants.
MSI MECH and GAMING Radeon RX 5500 XT GPUs
This GPU series by MSI will also be similar to the other ones with 1408 Stream Processors and will be available in both 4GB or 8GB GDDR6 memory variants. The reference boost clock for MSI’s Radeon RX 5500 XT series is 1845 MHz, the GAMING series will boost up to 1905 MHz, with memory clock speed at 14 Gbps.
The AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT is all set to be launched on 12th December.
The Red team had an amazing start to 2019 with its 7nm products in both CPUs and GPUs. From laptops and notebooks to servers, this year they have just excelled in every aspect.
To give a perfect end to this year’s successful journey, AMD is already planning to launch its new 7nm based Radeon RX 5500 XT Navi 14 GPU and alongside that, they are also planning to announce their annual Adrenalin 2020 Edition graphics drivers.
The leaked images of the software show that AMD will leverage the new feature called Radeon Boost. This tech is supposed to use the HiAlgo Boost technology, HiAlgo was bought by AMD years ago and they were the ones to implement the Radeon Chill feature.
This new tech will be NVIDIA’s equivalent of adaptive shading, but it does affect the frame resolution instead of the shaders. This helps older Radeon GPUs to get better performance in modern games as it intelligently reduces the GPU load on the unnecessary parts of the game this increasing frame rates while gaming.
BOOST intercepts and on the fly modifies commands sent from the game to the graphics card, optimizing performance frame by frame. When you are in action and the camera moves, BOOST decreases the resolution to boost the framerate. When the camera stops, it restores full resolution. This provides optimal responsiveness and smoothness for the game, even with a weak graphics card.
According to AMD’s website, the Radeon Boost will be compatible with select game titles only, though hardware compatibility is quite wide, as both the Polaris and Navi GPUs, as well as the Ryzen 2000 & 3000 APUs, can utilize this feature while gaming, but the mGPU support will be missing, for the time being.
Manchester City lost 2-1 against Manchester United and are now 14 points behind league leaders Liverpool.
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola doubts his team’s capability to compete against the big European clubs.
The defending two-time Premier League champions were beaten 2-1 by Solskjaer’s Manchester United. With this defeat, Manchester City are now 14 points behind current league leaders Liverpool.
Despite dominating English football for the past two seasons and boasting an exceptional, expensive squad, Guardiola has suggested his side might be unable to go toe-to-toe with Europe’s biggest clubs.
Manchester City’s defence have been vulnerable this season. Guardiola’s decision of not recruiting another defender in place of Vincent Kompany is proving fatal. Laporte has also been injured for last few months, adding more worry to City’s defence.
The pace of Manchester United trio – Rashford, Martial and James torn apart City’s defence in the first 30 minutes. This current team is far away from the team of last two seasons who won two consecutive Premier League titles.
Guardiola told reporters: “This is the level we are facing, against Liverpool, [Manchester] United, Barcelona, [Real] Madrid and Juventus. They are the teams we have to face, and the reality is maybe we’re not able to compete with them.”
“Okay, so we have to improve and accept it and move forward. I could come here and complain about many things; I have reasons to complain. Maybe we need as a club to accept the reality we have right now and improve.”
He further added: “The reality is we’re 14 points behind because of the mistakes, the quality of the opponents and especially for the things we cannot control. That’s the reality. But we have to continue. We are at the beginning of December. We have other competitions to play, other games to fight and improve on that. Maybe it will help us for the future of the club; maybe we need that for the future to be better.”

England may finally bring the EURO 2020 trophy home.
During the golden generation of Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard, John Terry and Wayne Rooney, the England team were always one of the favourites going into any major international tournaments. But after their retirement, the Three Lions lost their favourites tag. They used to be considered as underdogs.
But Gareth Southgate has done a wonderful job. He has built a young and vibrant team surrounding Rashford, Sterling, Kane, Maguire and others. We saw in the last World Cup that England have in them what it takes to win big matches. And considering the domestic form of the players, England are one of the favourites for the Uefa Euro 2020.
Due to confident performance within the qualification stage for Euro 2020, the England team have quickly become one of the main favorites in continental competitions. 1xBet – online betting is a good opportunity to predict the success of the Gareth Southgate’s team in a long run.
After having qualified for the
semifinals of the World Cup 2018, the English managed to improve their game
even more. More and more young players appear in the team of Three Lions. Among
the recent debutants, Mount is especially worth mentioning, since he has
already attracted attention by effective actions. The young midfielder also looks very well in Chelsea.
By choosing 1xBet – online betting you get an excellent opportunity to start receiving stable income just by putting your knowledge into practice. After confidently qualifying for Euro 2020, the English generated rather high expectations among their fans regarding their performance within the tournament.
We should mention that the semifinal matches and the decisive meeting of the continental forum will be held at Wembley stadium, which should become an additional motivation for Gareth Southgate’s trainees to demonstrate their best game.
The trusted bookmaker offers its fans basketball betting online and predictions for dozens of other disciplines. It is a good opportunity to put your knowledge into practice and significantly increase the assets available.
The forthcoming tournament is quite a
serious challenge for Southgate’s young team. On the one hand, it has qualified
for the 2018 World Cup semi-finals not long ago, but on the other, there are
practically no veterans in the team, who are older than 30 and have impressive
international experience.
If we are talking about the strong points of the team England, then we should mention:
Cool selection of players for every position. The attacking line includes especially great players, such as Kane, Sterling, Rashford, Sancho and many others. The only exception is the goalkeeper position, but the English have not had great goalkeepers for 30 years.
Perfect teamwork. It has especially improved during the qualification round for Euro 2020. Now the players make even fewer mistakes, which has a positive effect on the national team’s results.
The leaders’ individual strength who can always turn the episode in favor of the English.
