Have you ever wondered how the “brain of computer” i.e Microprocessor is made ? How it is transformed from sand to silicon ? How such a complex procedure takes place ?
Intel has released couple of video, which explains the complete process behind the making of a Micro-Chip step by step, Here’s one of those videos,
This video shows manufacturing of Intel’s world leading 22nm manufacturing technology chip with 3D transistors.
If you are a Hardcore Geek and not satisfied by just the video, here’s something more for you. Click here to download above video in the form of PDF with complete explanation of every step.

In this article, we take a look back at the history of Nokia as the different times the brand died, was given a new life and then died again. From refusing to adopt the touch screen to switching to Windows Phone and finally making the jump to Android with HMD. This story of Nokia is a brief lesson on what not to do as a smartphone manufacturer.

iOS developer Adam Demasi has been successful in tricking his iPhone into believing that he is in Italy while living in Australia. He did this to get his hands on EU-exclusive iPhone features like third-party app stores, option to choose the default browser and direct app downloads from websites. However, the process is complex and not feasible for everyone to try.

We have extensively compared the Snapdragon X Elite and Apple M3 chipsets. In terms of CPU performance, both processors are on par, however, Apple achieves identical performance at a lower frequency. On the GPU front, the Adreno GPU on X Elite can't beat the Apple M3 GPU. But it does rival the older M2 GPU. Finally, on the NPU front, Qualcomm takes the lead with the powerful Hexagon NPU.

The Ultra XDR feature in Nothing OS 2.5.5 is a format that allows for more detail in bright and dark areas of images. It's a rebrand of the Ultra HDR feature found in Android 14 and above. The feature can be enabled in the camera settings and results in brighter images with more detail, but at the cost of larger file sizes. It's not exclusive to Nothing devices, with Samsung and OnePlus using similar features.

Qualcomm is all set to redefine the PC ecosystem with its Snapdragon X series lineup. There are a total of four chipsets: three are from the Snapdragon X Elite platform and one is from the Snapdragon X Plus platform. The top-tier Elite variant, X1E-84-100, offers a dual-core boost up to 4.2GHz. The Plus variant offers multithreaded frequency up to 3.4GHz. The Adreno GPU can perform up to 4.6 TFLOPs on the top-end variant, but the rest of the lineup offers performance up to 3.8 TFLOPs. That said, the Hexagon NPU is the same across all chipsets, which delivers performance up to 45 TOPS.

DirectX 12 is a lower-level API compared to DirectX 11. It is more complicated for developers but gives them more precision on how to use hardware resources such as the CPU and GPU. There are lots of new features supported on DirectX 12 such as Variable Rate Shading (VRS) for improved performance, Ray Tracing for better graphics fidelity, and DirectML for machine-learning centric features in games. Speaking of performance, DirectX 12 is better in Fortnite as I tested. But in Path of Exile better performance is observed with DX11.
