Unlocked Hotspot Readings Reveal RTX 50 Throttling Linked to Cooling Failures

A Brazilian modder claims to re-enable NVIDIA's GPU Hotspot sensor on RTX 50 GPUs, showing hotspot temps around 107C that caused throttling even when average temps looked fine; after replacing thermal paste, hotspots dropped to 100C and performance improved. The change suggests NVIDIA’s removal of hotspot monitoring can mask cooling issues, and it advocates reintroducing hotspot data in software to diagnose mounting or paste problems.

"Revolutionary Satellite Measures Earth's Temperature with Unprecedented Precision"

The recently launched HOTSAT-1, a high-resolution thermal satellite camera, is capturing never-before-seen thermal images of the Earth's surface temperature. With a resolution of 33 feet, it can detect temperature differences in the built and natural environment. The data collected by HOTSAT-1 will aid in monitoring wildfires, analyzing heat escape from roads and buildings, and improving energy-efficient infrastructure. The satellite operates by detecting heat, which is a longer wavelength than visible light, presenting a challenge in capturing clear images while traveling at high speeds in space.

"Apple's Upcoming AirPods Pro 2: Health Monitoring and Hearing Tests"

Apple's upcoming AirPods Pro may include a new hearing health feature that can check for potential hearing issues and potentially measure body temperature through the ear canal. The feature would be supported by iOS 17 and would build upon the existing audiogram support in AirPods. Additionally, Apple is exploring positioning the AirPods as hearing aids following FDA approval for over-the-counter sales. However, the release of the updated AirPods Pro with these new health features may be several months or even years away, while USB-C AirPods are expected to arrive soon. Other wireless earbuds, such as the Jabra Elite 75t and Nothing Ear 2, already offer similar hearing test features.
