This GPU will be PRICELESS...

This episode kicks off with a clarification on a rumored NVIDIA product, debunking the notion of an RTX 3090 Super and confirming that the next line is the RTX 3090 Ti, not a rebranded model. The host explains that the 3090 Ti is expected to feature a substantial core increase, a 450 watt TDP, and a PCIe 5.0 power connector capable of delivering up to 600 watts, with a January launch speculated in leaks but no official price announced yet. The discussion then pivots to a broader tech news tapestry, including Apple's ongoing litigation with Epic and the possibility of alternative payment methods in the App Store, a topic that continues to unfold as Apple signals complexity and potential future moves rather than immediate changes. Around the middle, the show covers another major leak cycle about Google Pixel 6, Pixel Pass, and a bundle of services designed to lock users in with a mix of hardware, software perks, and extended warranties, all set against the backdrop of a still-competitive pricing landscape for flagship devices. The segment also touches on a Volta GIGA charger and its four-device charging capability, positioning it as a desk clutter reducer while highlighting different power options and a money-back guarantee to entice buyers. Quick Bits offer a rapid-fire tour of topics like Sony and TSMC’s potential collaboration in Japan, a new ARM based ultra processor from Ampere, and China’s crypto policy trajectory, balancing industry optimism with geopolitical and regulatory headwinds. The episode closes with social media safety shifts from Facebook and Instagram, PlayStation goodwill campaigns with free game distributions, and a light, Thanksgiving flavored humor, inviting viewers to return for more tech news on the next episode.
