Podcast #727 – 4060 Launch Moves Up, AMD AI, GPU Sales Plummet, Thermaltake Ceres 500, Clippy! and MORE!
It was another week, and that means more pcper podcast goodness. Josh had his very, very old headset and a bad laptop sound card on the road with him, Kent was back again, with a fab case review and we talked about a lot of other tech and newsy stuff. We even had Clippy.
As always, we want to extend a big thank you to our all Patreon members. New folks and current ones that are bumping their patronage are greatly appreciated.
This show cannot go on without you – you know who you are, please consider helping our efforts. It most definitely helps keep us on the air. And helps Josh buy burgers. Thank you!
