Episode description
This episode is just over an hour, and probably a lot more exciting than the Ryzen 9000 launch, itself. Plus Josh had a really messy looking burger. You can't lose.
We've got Intel microcode, AMD Ryzen 9k, when is an RTX 4070 a bit less ... it's a tight show.
Recorded August 14, 2024.
