    One more image and some specs just leaked out today. I added them to our story:

    AMD didn’t need to announce the Ryzen 7840U because these companies just did.

    Aokzoe is now claiming to have the “world’s first AMD Ryzen 7840U handheld.” Ayaneo is naming it too.

    AMD would rather you pay attention to the Z1 Extreme, a chip that’s apparently identical save “entirely new power ranges and optimize[d] voltage curves specifically for this use case” that “should not be trivialized,” AMD’s Don Woligroski tells The Verge. Those sound important, but will AMD really not share them with anyone but Asus?

    Qualcomm has its own game upscaling tech now.

    “Snapdragon Game Super Resolution,” or GSR for short, is like AMD’s FSR and Nvidia’s DLSS for mobile. But it’s just spatial, not temporal, meaning it upscales each frame as a still image instead of comparing it to neighbors for smoother video.

    Also, unlike competitors, Qualcomm declined to provide any real-world examples of before-and-after performance and graphical quality when we asked.

    Microsoft’s Activision deal is on life support because cloud gaming still sucks

    Will the UK’s decision be a self-fulfilling prophecy?
