Deutschlands oberste Datenschützerin will im Auftrag der Bürger den Geheimdiensten auf die Finger sehen. Doch nach Ansicht Voßhoffs wird ihr das weiterhin zu schwer gemacht. (Andrea Voßhoff, Vorratsdatenspeicherung) Max-Q is kind of like Intel’s Ultrabooks, but for gaming. No word on price, battery life.

In a thinly veiled branding exercise, graphics card marker Nvidia has unveiled "Max-Q," a series of thin and light gaming notebooks. Much like Intel's Ultrabook initiative, Nvidia is hoping that Max-Q will encourage laptop makers to create gaming laptops that can actually be used on the go, rather than remain permanently tethered to a wall socket because humanity's best scientists haven't yet created a battery-sized fusion power cell.
To that end, Max-Q (a co-opted NASA term that defines the point at which the aerodynamic stress on a rocket in atmospheric flight is maximised) has some recommended physical specs. Those include a thickness of 18mm and a weight of 2.3kg—a significant reduction over the 51mm and 4.5kg of GTX 880M-era laptops. Naturally, Max-Q laptops sport one of Nvidia's desktop-class graphics cards, which include the GTX 1060, GTX 1070, and GTX 1080.
Fan noise, a perpetual problem for gaming laptops, is kept low by a new feature dubbed WhisperMode. WhisperMode dynamically changes the game's frame rate, while simultaneously tweaking the graphics settings in order to save GPU resources. While Nvidia is yet to reveal the technical details behind WhisperMode, it sounds an awful lot like AMD's Radeon Chill feature, which lowers the frame rate during less action-orientated scenes in order to save power.

Over the past few years PC makers have launched a handful of gaming laptops with thin-and-light designs. But typically they’ve featured compromises when it comes to CPU, graphics, and other hardware. Now that NVIDIA has launched its Q-Max laptop platform, we’re starting to see compact gaming notebooks with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 or GTX 1080 […]

Intel is talking up its new high-performance (and high-price) X-Series chips at Computex. But while those chips should offer some serious compute power, they’re still based on the same architecture as existing Intel 6th-gen Core “Skylake” processors and 7th-gen Core “Kaby Lake” chips. But the company is starting to talk a bit more about the […]

Die Standardansicht für den KDE Plasma-Desktop in Version 5.10 zeigt wieder Ordner und Dateien. Die Technik dafür hat das Team deutlich verbessert. Neu ist die Unterstützung von Flatpak und Snappy in Discover und an Wayland wird weiter gearbeitet. (
M-net, Huawei und AVM haben heute stolz ihr G.fast-Projekt vorgestellt. Am liebsten hätte der Stadtnetzbetreiber die Glasfaser für alle Kunden bis in die Wohnung gelegt. (
Die achte Core-Generation alias Kaby Lake Refresh soll rund ein Drittel schneller sein - wenngleich dieser Wert seitens Intel frisiert ist. Statt zwei gibt es künftig vier Kerne in Ultrabooks, die Leistungssteigerung rührt aber auch von einer anderen Verbesserung her. (
