Laptops with Nvidia RTX 4090 through to 4050 GPUs are about to go on sale

Nvidia’s Lovelace laptop GPUs are inbound and we already knew portables carrying these RTX 4000 graphics cards would debut in February, but now we’ve heard exactly when the various cards should be emerging next month.

This is according to Chinese tech site IT Home (flagged up by Wccftech, via VideoCardz), and as ever, we must be skeptical around rumors, but the contention is that Nvidia will first launch RTX 4090 and 4080 models on February 8.

That’s when these laptops will start shipping, but you’ll actually be able to order the machines on February 1, a week in advance, the report asserts.

Laptops which run with the RTX 4070, 4060 and 4050 GPUs will be available later in the month, going on sale February 22.

Pricing for the lower-tier RTX 40 laptops released later in the month starts from $999 (around £820, AU$1,430), with price tags for the RTX 4080 and 4090 portables starting from $1,999 (around £1,640, AU$2,620).

We’ve already seen that the notebooks carrying the Lovelace flagship will be seriously pricey, with the cost of an upgrade to the RTX 4090 being shown by XMG. It adds an eye-watering €1,687 (around $1,830, £1,500, AU$2,630) to the price tag of XMG’s Neo 16 gaming laptop (and that’s just the additional cost for upgrading the GPU, not the total price).

Analysis: A swift launch for the Lovelace laptop range

If this proves correct, in just a touch over two weeks’ time, you’ll be able to pre-order a laptop with an RTX 4090 or 4080. And before the end of February, all Lovelace mobile graphics cards will be out there in notebooks on the market – so Nvidia isn’t hanging around deploying the entire range for laptops.

This feels especially pertinent when you consider that in the desktop sphere, only the RTX 4090, 4080, and 4070 Ti have been released so far – and those releases were staggered over quite some time (the 4070 Ti has only just got here).

Whether this push with deploying laptop GPUs swiftly means we might see the RTX 4070 or RTX 4060 (or even 4050) for desktop PCs anytime in the near future, well, we wouldn’t bank on it – certainly not in the latter two cases anyway. All recent rumors have suggested the desktop RTX 4060 is still quite some way off, and its release may not even be considered by Nvidia until enough lower-tier RTX 3000 stock – which is still hanging around – has been sold off.

As we mentioned above, the cost of the laptop RTX 4090 is not for the faint-hearted. Indeed, it’s actually every bit as pricey as the desktop RTX 4090, while delivering performance in line with the desktop 4080. (Remember that the mobile 4090 is built on the AD103 chip and has a considerably chopped CUDA Core count of 9,728 compared to AD102 on the desktop 4090, which offers 16,384).

What Is the “System Volume Information” Folder, and Can I Delete It?

What Is the “System Volume Information” Folder, and Can I Delete It? On every Windows drive—even external USB drives—you’ll find a “System Volume Information” folder. You’ll only see it if you have Windows set to  show hidden files and folders , but it’s always there. So what is it for? Why Can’t I Open the Folder? On drives formatted with  the NTFS file system , this folder’s permissions are set to prevent everyone from accessing the folder, even users with Administrator permissions. Double-click the folder and you’ll see an error message saying the “location is not available” and “access is denied.” This is normal. That’s because Windows uses this folder for certain system-level features. The permissions are set to prevent users—and programs without the appropriate permissions—from tampering with the files inside and interfering with important system functions. What Is It For? Among other things, Windows stores  System Restore points  in the System Volume

With no good Black Friday iPad deals, it's time to turn to the Android side , DigiTech Geeks Mobile Computing News

With no good Black Friday iPad deals, it's time to turn to the Android side The Black Friday iPad deals are never any good, but in 2021 they've somehow failed to clear that laughably low bar, and we've still been surprised by just how poor the Apple-tablet discounts are this year. Seriously – we're talking just $50 / £50 off super-power iPad Pros , and sometimes no discounts at all on entry-level or Mini tablets – and this outlook very likely won't change for the Cyber Monday iPad deals . If you were wanting to buy a new iPad in the Black Friday sales, it might seem like you're plum out of luck. (Not in the US or UK? Scroll down for deals in your region). It's not all bad news though, not as long as you're willing to try new things (and aren't committed to the Apple ecosystem already). That's because there are a few worthy tablet Black Friday deals on Android slates that make them much, much more tempting than an iPad. Sure, sure, sure: i
