HW News - "Jailbreaking" AMD CPUs, RX 9060 Leaks, Steam Distributes Malware Game

Sponsor: Montech HyperFlow 360 Cooler on Amazon geni.us/dWBIbF6
In this hardware news episode, we talk about security research revolving around "jailbreaking" AMD CPUs with microcode hacking tools, NVIDIA trying to fix crashing, instability, and black screens with the RTX 50 series, and AMD RX 9060 leaks in public filings. Additionally, the USPTO has rejected most of Nintendo's patent applications in its fight against Palworld and Steam distributed a game (PirateFi) with malware in it.
