AMD plans to launch the first Ryzen 7000 series desktop chips later this year, with mobile versions aimed at laptops and other compact computers coming in 2023. But that oversimplifies things a bit, because it turns out AMD will actually be launching two different lines of laptop chips next year.
In addition to the previously expected “Phoenix” chips aimed at thin and light gaming laptops, AMD will launch a line of “Dragon Range” chips for higher-performance gaming laptops.
In a nutshell, both chips will use the same Zen 4 CPU cores as the desktop-class “Raphael” processors set to launch this year. They’ll both also support PCIe 5. But Dragon Range chips consume more power and are expected to have higher core and thread counts and/or speeds than Phoenix chips, more cache, and overall higher performance.
They’re also expected to show up in laptops that are more than 20mm (0.78 inches) thick, suggesting it’ll take more cooling power to keep them happy.
Basically, these are chips for the kind of laptops where performance is more important than battery life, and where you’ll probably keep them plugged in most of the time.
In a nutshell, here’s what the Ryzen 7000 lineup looks like so far:
Note that the in the graphic shared by AMD, some chips are described as supporting DDR5 while others show LPDDR5, but Ian Cutress notes that this doesn’t mean they only support those types of memory. So don’t be shocked if a laptop with a Phoenix CPU ends up featuring DDR5 memory or a Dragon Range system supports LPDDR5, for example.

The six-part miniseries begins on May 27 on Disney+.

This post contains spoilers about a trailer, so consider yourself warned.
It's the day before the anniversary of the Mexican victory over France in the Battle of Puebla, so that means it's time for Star Wars celebrations. To honor the day, Disney has released a full trailer and the poster art for its upcoming Obi-Wan show, which begins airing on Disney+ on May 27.
The six-part miniseries is set a decade after the Battle of Mustafar—perhaps celebrated on Coruscant with spicy tacos and drinking. Not that there's any sign of such things in the new trailer. Instead, we see a bit of what Obi-Wan has been up to in the years since the fall of the Jedi and the rise of the empire.

World’s second-largest electric vehicle manufacturer hit by supply chain bottlenecks.

Volkswagen, the world’s second-largest electric vehicle manufacturer by volume, has “sold out” of battery-powered models in the US and Europe for this year as persistent supply chain bottlenecks hit global production.
The Wolfsburg-based group, which includes brands such as Porsche, Audi and Škoda, sold more than 99,000 electric models worldwide in the first three months of 2022 as it was hit by a shortage of semiconductors and wiring harnesses made in Ukraine.
Market leader Tesla delivered more than three times that number in the same quarter.

Ten months later, another chance at a do-over for Boeing’s crewed spacecraft.

Boeing and NASA say the Starliner spacecraft is ready for a do-over flight, with a second uncrewed test mission of the spacecraft now scheduled for May 19.
Nine months have passed since a standard pre-flight check of the spacecraft, then sitting atop a rocket on a launch pad in Florida, found that 13 of 24 oxidizer valves within Starliner's propulsion system were stuck. The discovery was made within hours of liftoff.
Since then, engineers and technicians at Boeing and NASA have worked to fully understand why the valves were stuck and to fix the problem. They found that the dinitrogen tetroxide oxidizer that had been loaded onto the spacecraft 46 days prior to launch had combined with ambient humidity to create nitric acid, which had started the process of corrosion inside the valve's aluminum housing.
