Apple's iPhone 17 chip becomes the fastest single-core CPU in the world on PassMark, beating PC chips and Apple's own M3 Ultra — passively-cooled A19 CPU catapults past power-hungry competitors

Apple's A19 chip in the iPhone 17 has surpassed all other CPUs in single-core performance on PassMark, even outperforming desktop chips like Intel's Core Ultra 9 285K and AMD's EPYC 4585PX. The A19 achieved this while consuming significantly less power and being passively cooled, showcasing its efficiency. However, in multi-threaded performance, the A19 falls short due to its fewer cores compared to other CPUs. Despite its limitations, the A19's performance in single-core tasks is remarkable, making it the fastest CPU available in this specific benchmark.

MindsEye's sabotage mission is being slammed as dull and pointless

MindsEye's sabotage mission is being slammed as dull and pointless

Build A Rocket Boy accuses individuals of sabotaging MindsEye's launch, spending over €1 million on damaging efforts. The studio integrates the controversy into a new in-game mission, Blacklist, to showcase evidence of sabotage to players. However, reports describe the mission as lackluster and failing to deliver a compelling narrative. Critics attribute the launch issues to internal problems, such as management and design decisions, casting doubt on the sabotage claims. The saga continues as MindsEye's post-launch turmoil unfolds.
