This price-hike-busting RTX 5080 gaming PC is cheaper than it was in April — save $500 on a 9800X3D beast with 32GB of DDR5, 2TB SSD

by

The individual cost of some of these components makes this a pretty remarkable deal in Fall 2026. The RTX 5080 GPU in this rig alone will set you back more than $1,500 in today’s market. The CPU is nearly $500, bringing …

Hot Chips 2026: Samsung reveals a three-phase HBM roadmap that puts logic and compute inside memory — zHBM ultimately stacks DRAM directly on top of the process

by

The bigger Phase 1 change is moving the memory controller from the XPU to the custom HBM base die. Han estimated controllers account for 5 to 10% of an XPU’s area — space that, refilled with compute, could yield a 10–20%…

Hot Chips 2026: Cerebras lays out the future of wafer-scale AI — Nexus system architecture triples rack-scale performance, CS-6 wafer to incorporate stacked DRA
