This week on the TT Show, Jak and Kosta discuss the ongoing saga with Intel’s 13th and 14th generation processors, specifically the flagship 13900K and 14900K models that have been plagued by instability issues for months. Over the past week, things have heated up with reports of game developers switching from servers to AMD and data showing that these Intel processors are failing at an alarming rate.
Speaking of AMD, the company announced its new gaming-specific technology that can reduce install sizes by up to 70% — and yes, Jak and Kosta can’t wait for this to become available. For reference, this would bring Call of Duty’s install size down from 150GB to less than 50GB.
In the AI world, it has come to light that companies like Apple and NVIDIA are using YouTube videos from popular channels and creators for AI training, which goes against Google’s terms of service. Additionally, Microsoft has confirmed that it has created an AI voice generator that sounds indistinguishable from real speech — and for that reason, it will not be released.
In the world of PC gaming, Kosta reviews the latest rumors about the GeForce RTX 50 series while admiring Skyrim running on a GeForce RTX 4090 with over 3100 mods. It looks like a completely different game.
Other topics covered in this week’s jam-packed episode include Windows XP running on an iPhone, ASUS’ new $499 flagship gaming keyboard, and what it takes to power the Las Vega Sphere.
