AMD’s next gen Threadripper Pro 7000-series chips come with up to 96 cores, and I long for consumer versions-

It’s long been known that AMD is working on its Zen 4-based Ryzen Threadripper Pro lineup. It appears as though the launch is close after some benchmark results for the 32-core Threadripper Pro 7975WX and 96-core 7995WX showed up in the SiSoftware Sandra database.

The results come via @momomo_us. The system in question is a Dell Precision 7875 with two different configurations, but also interesting is that the listing shows many of both chips’ specs.

The Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX is a 96-core,192-thread monster of a chip with 12 x 8 core chiplets. Its boost clock is 5.14GHz with a surprisingly high 3.2GHz base clock. As we’ve come to expect from AMD, the cache amount is impressive, with 96 MB of L2 cache and a whopping 384 MB of L3 cache. It’s all but certain the chips will support 8-channel DDR5 memory.

The Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7975WX is a little more worldly with 32-cores and 64-threads. The listing reports a strange 4.0GHz/4.0GHz clock speed, so this is pr…

10,000 milk cartons descend on Starfield’s biggest city in newest physics benchmark-

Starfield players continue to push the game—and their computers–to the limit by spawning thousands of items in inappropriate places, like stuffing 20,000 potatoes in a spaceship. Watching potatoes roll out of an air lock is great, but what if you could watch 10,000 milk cartons descend onto a population zone like a lactic artillery strike?

Yesterday, YouTube user Dennios gave us the latest Starfield physics benchmark by making it rain dairy on New Atlantis. Using Starfield’s console commands, they blanketed the game’s capital city with 10,000 milk cartons and watched them roll boxily toward the streets below.

Dennios’ PC manages to render each and every carton with a shockingly stable frame rate. When Lauren was shoving hundreds of food items into her ship for science, she found that rectangular food items were easier on her PC compared to round items, like oranges, and that they bounced in a goofier way.

You can see what she’s talking …

Daedalic’s bizarre Gollum apology was apparently written by ChatGPT and the studio didn’t even get approval on it-

One of 2023’s big disappointments was The Lord of the Rings: Gollum, a stealth-action adventure from the established German studio Daedalic. Daedalic is a publisher but also built its name on beautiful point-and-click adventures. Gollum was something of a departure for the studio, and its nature as a big licensed title in a popular genre meant it faced a new level of competition, expectation and scrutiny.

Despite one major delay, Gollum couldn’t deliver. PCG’s review found an enjoyably original take on the mythos that was unfortunately buried under a lacklustre game of trial-and-error. The game’s PC Metacritic currently stands at 38, with the user reviews even more brutal. Gollum became the subject of a fierce backlash almost instantly, one of those circumstances where the big licence almost came to count against it. The consequences for Daedalic as a development studio would be catastrophic.

A new report from the German outlet Game Two talks to former employees of Daeda…

Diablo 4 director- ‘It is time for the buffs’-

The Druid and Necromancer have gotten some buffs, but otherwise Diablo 4’s first two weeks have been characterized by big nerfs as Blizzard weakened builds that were outside its “bounds for what is reasonable” and downgraded the best XP farming sites with hotfixes. Now it sounds like things will be swinging the other direction. 

A “chonky patch,” as associate production director Tiffany Wat referred to it during today’s Diablo 4 Campfire Chat, is in the works, and game director Joe Shely says that buffs will be one of its themes.

“Our philosophy is to prioritize improving [player] choice by looking at things that are not working and making them better,” said Shely on the stream. “Now, it hasn’t felt like that in the last two weeks, right? And when I came here today, I was thinking about—I don’t have a shirt like this—but I thought about getting a shirt and then writing ‘it’s time for the buffs’ on it. I didn’t do that, but it is time for the buffs.”

A bunch of classic Nintendo DS JRPGs are headed for PC, but it’ll cost ya-

Permit me one moment to complain, readers. Over ten years ago, I buckled and bought a CD copy of Knights of the Old Republic 2, since it clearly wasn’t coming to Steam. It came to Steam a few months later. At some point I did the same with Planescape: Torment, just before it released on GOG. Literally last month I bought the first few Etrian Odyssey games for my indomitable 3DS before Nintendo could close the eshop, and hey, guess what? Etrian Odyssey 1, 2, and 3 are headed to PC in a newly remastered form on June 1. I am the plaything of fickle gods.

But hey, chin up, because those games are cult classics, and having them freed from the shackles of slowly-submerging Nintendo hardware can only be a good thing. If you don’t know, they’re first-person dungeon crawlers that see you lead a party of adventurers around dangerous labyrinths chock-full of enemies that you deal with in turn-based encounters. It’s incredibly similar to the Persona Q games, if you’re familiar wi…

Fallout- London sets a new record by becoming the ‘fastest redeemed game ever on GOG’-

War isn’t the only thing that never changes. Fallout fans never change either: they’re always ravenous for more Fallout games. As proof you need look no further than Fallout: London, the wildly ambitious full conversion mod for Fallout 4 that exports the irradiated wasteland from the US and imports it into England. The mod was released on July 24, and players pounced on it with such ferocity that it immediately set a new record on GOG.

“In the first 24 hours, the mod was redeemed more than 500,000 times, making it the fastest redeemed game on GOG ever,” according to a news post on GOG. That’s impressive, especially considering the digital games storefront has been around since 2008 and now hosts nearly 10,000 games. None of them—not Cyberpunk 2077, not even the Witcher games—had people rushing to snatch them up at the rate as they did Fallout: London.

Granted, GOG was the only place players could download the Fallout: London mod—although you can install…
