“Intel technology is the foundation for many of the world’s most important innovations and advances,” the company said in a statement. “At CES 2019, Intel will highlight the future of computing and explore advancements … designed to unlock human potential.”

To watch the press conference live, interested viewers can navigate to the Intel Newsroom site during that time to view the video feed. The feed will also be embedded in this post once it becomes available. In a media advisory, the chipmaker said that Intel Vice President Gregory Bryant from the Client Computing Group and Executive Vice President Navin Shenoy from the Data Center Group, will be the main presenters.

Intel will also have a booth at the show to showcase some of the many technologies that it is working on. Last year, Intel showed off 5G, autonomous driving, virtual reality, augmented reality, and artificial intelligence demos in its booth, as the company focused on how data affected human lives. This year, the theme is how Intel’s technology is helping to drive the “smart, connected data-centric world.”

Intel partners and computer makers like Dell, HP, Lenovo, and others will also be at CES. And we’ll be there to cover how Intel technologies are powering new computer designs, ranging from desktops to laptops and everything in between.

Most recently, Intel announced a new social good partnership with the National Geographic Society and the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation that leverages the power of Intel’s TrailGuard A.I. work in a camera system built to combat poaching in the wild. The camera uses Intel’s Movidius Vision Processing Unit for object recognition. If humans are detected by the camera in Africa’s wildlife reserves, park rangers are alerted in real-time, so poachers can be stopped before they can kill an endangered animal. Given the theme of Intel’s press conference this year of bringing to light technologies that have a direct impact on the human experiences, the company may use CES as a venue to further showcase its anti-poaching initiative and similar efforts..

CPU owners are suing Intel. Here’s the surprising reason why
Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger holding a chip.

Five unhappy owners of Intel CPUs have just started a class action lawsuit against the company following the discovery that, allegedly, Intel knowingly sold processors affected by a dangerous vulnerability -- and it has been doing this for years. The flaw in question is called Downfall, and while it doesn't affect Intel's best CPUs, it's present in chips ranging from the 6th to the 11th generation of Intel processors.

Dating back to Skylake CPUs and still present in Rocket Lake chips, the Downfall vulnerability was first made public by security researcher Daniel Moghimi. This flaw targets the Gather Instruction process in Intel CPUs. Normally, this allows the CPU to quickly access various data in its memory, but unfortunately, this also means that any vulnerabilities within Gather Instruction grant the threat actor a lot of access to the affected PC. Be it through malware or by direct access, attackers could potentially steal a lot of sensitive data from affected chips.

It is rare to see a technology giant open its doors to showcase how it really operates. But that is exactly what Intel had in mind when it invited global press and media representatives to visit its factories in Malaysia. As a part of its Tech Tour 2023 event, the chip maker gave us a detailed insight into how exactly a CPU is made. I learned a lot, but before I share my experience, here’s a brief about the company’s history and future plans in Malaysia.

Intel established its first offshore facility in Malaysia in 1972 with a total of 100 employees. Today, there are two major facilities in Penang and Kulim that expand close to 900,000 sq. ft. with 15,000 employees.

Building a new PC is an exciting time for a gaming enthusiast -- even more so when it's been a long time and you've been working with outdated hardware. However, it can also be a pretty intimidating process if you're new to it, and as your gaming experience will be affected by these choices for the years to come, it can be hard to choose which parts to buy.

Having gone through this process myself, I've made all these choices very recently. Below, I'll show you what's worth thinking about when you build your own PC, and why I ultimately picked the components that I did.
