AI cloud provider Nscale files for NYSE debut amid rising compute demand

Nscale, an AI cloud provider spun out of Arkon Energy, filed to go public on the NYSE under NSCL. For the first six months of 2026 it posted $140.6 million in revenue (up 1,252% year over year) but a net loss of $1.02 billion, with over $8 billion in debt and $56.4 billion in remaining performance obligations. The company counts OpenAI, Anthropic and Microsoft among customers, plans to expand into model inference and acquire Anyscale, and is supported by Nvidia, Dell and Fidelity among others, highlighting the current surge in AI compute demand.

Next-Gen GPUs Slip to 2028 as AMD/NVIDIA Delay Rollout, RDNA 5 AT2 Targets 2027

A well-known leaker claims AMD and NVIDIA will skip 2027 for their next-generation GPUs, with launches pushed to 2028; only AMD’s RDNA 5-based AT2 is said to debut in 2027. NVIDIA’s RTX 60-series is also purportedly delayed to 2028. The RDNA 5 family reportedly covers multiple configurations aimed at the high end, while the broader market faces continued memory shortages and elevated prices, likely prolonging current GPU ownership.

Apple’s A20 Pro arrives on a 2nm process with notable CPU, GPU and AI gains

Apple unveiled the A20 Pro, its first 2nm chip powering the iPhone Duo, iPhone 18 Pro, and iPhone 18 Pro Max. The six‑core CPU includes two high‑performance cores, a seven‑core GPU with up to 40% more performance, upgraded neural accelerators with 2x faster 8‑bit math, and a 32‑core Neural Engine, all supported by a 50% increase in memory bandwidth. A new packaging design separates memory from the SoC for better thermal performance, plus a dual‑display capable display engine for the iPhone Duo and refined pixel handling around the under‑display camera.

iPhone 18 Pro Chip Leak Signals Major GPU and Memory Upgrades

An alleged solder-joint diagram of Apple’s A20 Pro chip suggests the iPhone 18 Pro will feature a two-core CPU for performance cores and four for efficiency cores, a seven-core GPU, a 96-bit LPDDR5x memory interface (up from 64-bit), and larger L2 caches (8MB for efficiency cores vs. 6MB on the A19 Pro, with 16MB on the performance cores). The wider memory bus and extra GPU cores are expected to boost graphics and memory bandwidth, and Apple is likely to debut the A20 Pro in the iPhone 18 Pro/Max and possibly a foldable iPhone next week.

Apple A20 Pro Advances to 7-Core GPU With Wider Memory Bus via WMCM Packaging

Apple’s A20 Pro front-side die shot suggests a 7-core GPU and a wider 96-bit LPDDR5X memory bus made possible by WMCM packaging, with memory dies placed beside the SoC; CPU core count remains two performance and four efficiency cores, and L2 caches are 16MB per performance core and up to 8MB for efficiency cores. Energy efficiency details and Neural Engine information await benchmarks ahead of Apple’s September 9 reveal for the 2nm iPhone 18 Pro lineup.

GPU Prices Jump 15% in a Month as RTX 5090 Sells for About 2.5x MSRP

TechSpot data shows GPU prices rising 15% in a month across 10 countries, with GeForce cards up about 19% and Radeon up 11%. NVIDIA’s RTX 5090 is still listed at $1,999, but the cheapest US stock now runs near $5,000 (roughly 145% above MSRP domestically and 136% globally). The market sits about 28% above launch MSRP excluding the 5090. Analysts attribute the spike largely to GDDR7 demand for AI hardware, with AMD’s GDDR6-based cards holding value slightly better but likely to be pressured soon.

Witcher 3 Remaster Raises PC Specs with Free Upgrade

CD Projekt Red announced The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered as a free update for existing owners, with the Complete Edition upgrade arriving Sept 29; the remaster raises PC requirements, with minimum specs of an i5-8400 or Ryzen 5 2600, 12 GB RAM, and 70 GB SSD, and a minimum GPU of GTX 1660 6 GB / RX 5500 XT / Arc A580, while recommended specs rise to an i7-8700K or Ryzen 5 3600X, 16 GB RAM, and RTX 2060 Super / RX 6600 XT / Arc B580; it will also launch on Nintendo Switch 2, and though the upgrade is attainable for many, some players may be left behind due to higher hardware demands.

Nvidia's data-center networking could outpace its GPUs

Nvidia’s fastest-growing business may be its data-center networking, not its chips. The company’s networking play—encompassing Spectrum-X, InfiniBand, NVLink and NVLink Fusion—generated about $15 billion last quarter and could approach $17 billion next quarter, with networking growth near 200% year over year versus roughly 77% for compute. Analysts expect networking to still outpace compute (about 134% vs 100%), highlighting Nvidia’s aim to be a one-stop AI infrastructure provider as hyperscalers design their own chips. Investors will watch how Jensen Huang addresses networking demand and how much of the AI system Nvidia can capture beyond GPUs in the upcoming earnings report.

Esports Hotel GPU Swindle: Thieves Swap RTX 5080s for 3060s, Net About $12K

Two Chinese men staying in esports hotels swapped high-end RTX 5080 GPUs for cheaper RTX 3060s in the hotel PCs, hoping to resell the stolen cards for about half their value. A power outage and subsequent room checks exposed the swap, tying them to up to four cases worth around 80,000 yuan (~$12,000). The GPUs were recovered and returned to hotel managers after their July 20 arrests.

AMD Signals 10%+ GPU Price Increase in August Amid Memory Shortages

AMD plans at least a 10% price hike for its RDNA4 GPUs in August due to ongoing GDDR6 memory shortages and higher memory costs from suppliers; pricier VRAM configurations are expected to carry larger premiums, while low-VRAM models like the RX 9050 4GB may see around a 10% increase. The move follows NVIDIA's pricing and aims to align the RDNA4 mid-range lineup with premium pricing, though AMD currently lacks a high-end rival to NVIDIA's top SKUs.
