Podcast #728 - Intel Discontinues Arc A770 Card, Core Desktop Rebrand, AI Ruins Search, Ultra CPUs and MORE - a podcast by PC Perspective

No, Arc isn't EOL - just the flagship card made by Intel. It doesn't bode well, as Battlemage seems pretty far away, and the A770 seems to have run its course with A750 getting all of Intel's marketing attention lately.

Beyond that, Intel decided to re-brand their desktop CPUs starting with the next generation Core, and Ultra is added to the mix to keep you on your toes. Also, other topics (in the list below). FYI, Josh was traveling, so he was absent this week - but don't worry, Kent stepped up with his own burger review.  We've got the usual security scares (router and S3 hacks) and gaming updates within (Steam, EA, and deals!)

Recorded June 21, 2023.
