AMD has officially confirmed the launch price of its upcoming Ryzen 9 9950X3D2, a new flagship processor built for enthusiasts who want the absolute maximum performance from AMD's Zen 5 platform. The processor will retail for US$899 (roughly RM3,568) when it launches globally, placing it firmly in the ultra-high-end desktop category.

AMD's Ryzen X3D lineup has built a strong reputation among PC enthusiasts, especially gamers who want the extra edge that 3D V-Cache can bring. So whenever a new X3D chip appears, expectations naturally rise. People start wondering whether this is the next must-have upgrade or another major leap for gaming performance.

A fresh leak is making the rounds: AMD's next "Halo" class APU (often referred to as "Medusa Halo") might support LPDDR6, the next-generation low-power memory standard. The source of the chatter is a post from leaker Olrak29 on X, where they suggested an internal platform identifier ("SM8975") supports both LPDDR5X and LPDDR6, and then doubled down when asked specifically about Medusa Halo.

If you've recently noticed duplicate driver updates in Windows 11 version 24H2 or 25H2, you're not alone — and according to Microsoft, it's not a problem. In a new support document released on October 22, the company confirmed that seeing duplicate or oddly labeled drivers in Windows Update is perfectly normal.

We all knew AMD was set to launch the Radeon RX 9070 Series at the end of the month, but surprise, surprise—some retailers jumped the gun. Over in Eastern Europe, one lucky (or opportunistic) buyer managed to get their hands on the RX 9070 XT early, and naturally, they wasted no time unboxing it for the internet.
