POSTER: computer news   ||    BAIDU WILL COOPERATE WITH BOSCH AND CONTINENTAL IN THE FIELD OF AUTOPILOT CREATION	DATE:2017-06-02
China has become the largest automobile market in the world for eight years, and therefore can form its own tendencies and partnerships.  Local automakers are gradually abandoning the creation of joint ventures with foreign partners, increasingly counting on equity for further development.  However, for the development of cars, Chinese auto giants prefer to lure from the West.  The government of the country, meanwhile, is trying to encourage the transfer of vehicles to electric traction, and against the backdrop of global trends, China in this sense is in a rather favorable position. As the Reuters agency explains, local "software giants", interested in creating an ecosystem for robocar , also keep pace with technological progress.  Dissolving the alliance with BMW, the Chinese search monster Baidu quickly joined not only NVIDIA , but also recently secured the support of Bosch and Continental, which develop components for automotive control systems.  Partners will develop not only software, but also create an ecosystem for new business models using automated vehicles.  China is ready to begin selling cars with a full "autopilot" as early as 2021. It is unlikely, of course, Baidu will independently engage in the release of "robomobiles."  Most likely, the developments created in cooperation with Bosch and Continental will be licensed for use by Chinese automakers.  Western companies also show a high interest in the Chinese market.  Daimler and BAIC Motor Company recently agreed to modernize the production facilities of the joint venture for the production of Mercedes-Benz electric vehicles, which will be sold on the Chinese market. Bosch in China also cooperates with AutoNavi and NavInfo - cartographic services that provide car navigation systems with up-to-date information.  Baidu explains that by these names the circle of its partners will not be limited, it will only expand.

POSTER: computer news   ||   TRYING TO APPEASE THE JAPANESE, WESTERN DIGITAL IS READY TO BUILD ANOTHER ENTERPRISE IN THE COUNTRY	DATE:2017-06-02
Preparation for the sale of Toshiba Memory assets in an attempt to raise about $ 18 billion to cover losses and replenish working capital of the parent company Toshiba is already turning into a kind of "soap opera".  At least, the passions around this potential deal are serious.  A recent report by Reuters says that Western Digital Corporation, which calls on the arbitration court to block the sale of Toshiba Memory assets, did not appreciate the Toshiba gesture, which recently transferred part of the assets of the joint venture with the former SanDisk back to the parent holding structure.  WDC objected that such a step does not remove the contradictions.  Especially since Toshiba parent company has returned about 5% of Toshiba Memory assets related to financial production support  . According to informed sources, Western Digital is now not only seeking allies to buy Toshiba Memory assets among Japanese and American investors, but also trying to appease the Japanese authorities with promises to build another enterprise for the production of memory chips in this country.  From SanDisk, Western Digital Corporation received four such enterprises, which it owns together with Toshiba.  Another company is being built, but the WDC management is ready to increase the volume of investments in the Japanese economy.  All that it wants in return - preferences when buying the assets of Toshiba Memory. It is reported that the CEO of WDC even plans to visit Japan to meet with local authorities, as well as to hold another round of negotiations with the shrew Toshiba.

POSTER: computer news   ||   IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2017 THE VIDEO CARD MARKET SHRANK BY ALMOST 20 PERCENTS	DATE:2017-06-02
The market of discrete graphics adapters is inexorably shrinking .  According to the results of the first quarter of the calendar year 2017, the sequential quarterly decline was 29.8%, and for the year the decline was noted at the level of 19.2%.  The market for video cards falls after the decline in the personal computer market and falls faster than the volume of computing systems supply.   It should also be noted that when calculating video cards, adapters for non-graphic calculations, such as NVIDIA Tesla, are also taken into account, but their deliveries do not compensate for losses from the shrinking PC market.  In total, there are 48 predominantly small suppliers of discrete graphics adapters on the market and in fact there are two suppliers of graphics processors (AMD and NVIDIA).  The peak of video card shipments came in 1999, when around 144 million video cards were sold worldwide.  In 2005, this number dropped to 44 million video cards per year.  In the first quarter of 2017, as calculations showed, the volume of shipments fell below the level of 10 million video cards.   The decrease in video card shipments recorded in the first quarter (by 29.8%) was 2.6% more than the average for the last ten years.  The PC market decreased by 22.9%.  In annual terms, the PC market in the reporting period decreased by 7.3%, while the drop in video card shipments for the same period was 19.2%.  In the second quarter, as predicted (and based on knowledge of the cycle of the market), the graphics adapter market will continue to fall. Leader of the GPU market and discrete adapters remains NVIDIA.  In the first quarter, the share of deliveries of solutions with NVIDIA chips accounted for 72.5% of the market share, while AMD held a share at 27.5%.  As follows from the data presented above, AMD improved year on year, although it deteriorated compared to the fourth quarter of the previous year.

POSTER: computer news   ||    VIDEO CARDS ON THE MORE AFFORDABLE AMD VEGA 11 WILL NOT APPEAR IN THE THIRD QUARTER	DATE:2017-06-01
PC Games Hardware found out some details about the entry to the market of the first AMD Vega . As it became clear yesterday, the first-born of the family Radeon RX Vega will debut in late July or even early August.  German sources explain that these will be exclusively graphic solutions based on Vega 10, and for the first time only the video cards of the reference design will be present on the market. The second important revelation, which was already voiced by another German site , is the lack AMD intentions or the opportunity to present a more accessible Vega 11 earlier this year or the beginning of the next.  As we said, the high cost of memory type HBM2 and the desire of AMD to maintain a high rate of profit even in the graphic segment will extend the life cycle of Polaris to the next year.  Products of the Vega family will be only in a thin layer of the upper price segment.   Select Rating : Currently 10.00/10 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 48843 Rating: 10.0/10 (12 votes cast) Video cards on the more affordable AMD Vega 11 will not appear in the third quarter	Add Comment ( 1 ) VIDEO CARDS ON THE MORE AFFORDABLE AMD VEGA 11 WILL NOT APPEAR IN THE THIRD QUARTER
