[3374.00 --> 3379.00] But it can, okay, but it can carry DisplayPort and data at the same time.
[3379.00 --> 3381.00] It's a PCI Express connection.
[3381.00 --> 3386.00] Wait, are you saying that USB-C can't do data and DisplayPort at the same time?
[3386.00 --> 3388.00] Not that I'm aware of.
[3388.00 --> 3389.00] Okay.
[3389.00 --> 3390.00] Okay.
[3390.00 --> 3407.00] Okay, the other thing about Thunderbolt is that because it is essentially PCI Express over a wire, without, like, janky adapters, you can actually run, basically, internal cards.
[3407.00 --> 3419.00] So, if you wanted to have a USB graphics card, for example, you need some, like, craptastic, you know, USB 3D accelerator with the frickin' 2D crap on it.
[3419.00 --> 3420.00] It's complicated.
[3420.00 --> 3422.00] They're over $100.
[3422.00 --> 3428.00] If you wanted a Thunderbolt graphics card, you could just use a real graphics card.
[3428.00 --> 3433.00] And you don't have to go and spend $600 on a Razer Core or $500 or whatever it is.
[3433.00 --> 3436.00] You can get something like that Beast thing from Banggood.
[3436.00 --> 3437.00] We got one.
[3437.00 --> 3438.00] We never got it working.
[3438.00 --> 3439.00] But that's a whole other issue.
[3439.00 --> 3443.00] The point is that there's the potential for it.
[3443.00 --> 3449.00] Daisy-chainable, PCI Express, regardless of the actual rated speeds of either of them, is cooler.
[3449.00 --> 3450.00] That's cooler.
[3450.00 --> 3451.00] That's cooler.
[3451.00 --> 3452.00] But let's back this up a bit.
[3452.00 --> 3454.00] Obviously, you can't be mad that this is getting faster.
[3454.00 --> 3455.00] No, it's great.
[3455.00 --> 3457.00] And that it uses the same cord.
[3457.00 --> 3458.00] Like, for some of the cords.
[3458.00 --> 3462.00] I just don't have a single thing that benefits from 10 gigabit USB, let alone 20.
[3462.00 --> 3464.00] We all want the technology to move forward.
[3464.00 --> 3466.00] But here's a couple questions.
[3466.00 --> 3471.00] First question, when are we going to expect these things to, any devices like this, to actually hit the market?
[3471.00 --> 3472.00] Oh, I know.
[3472.00 --> 3473.00] Probably.
[3473.00 --> 3474.00] Because we don't even see Gen 2, really, yet.
[3474.00 --> 3475.00] Barely.
[3475.00 --> 3476.00] Barely.
[3476.00 --> 3484.00] Does the Z270 chipset, I think, I think Z270 finally got USB 3.1 Gen 2?
[3484.00 --> 3485.00] No.
[3485.00 --> 3487.00] I don't think it has it.
[3487.00 --> 3489.00] I think AMD's chipsets have it.
[3489.00 --> 3490.00] Yeah, 399 does.
[3490.00 --> 3492.00] Yeah, I think that's a next gen Intel feature.
[3492.00 --> 3494.00] So we're probably like, I don't know.
[3494.00 --> 3495.00] Maybe they'll leapfrog it.
[3495.00 --> 3497.00] Yeah, two, three years away.
[3497.00 --> 3498.00] But we'll see.
[3498.00 --> 3499.00] Second question.
[3499.00 --> 3500.00] I could be wrong.
[3500.00 --> 3501.00] Is a clarification.
[3501.00 --> 3509.00] You said when you introduced this topic that it will double the speed of either your 5 gigabit cable or your 10 gigabit cable.
[3509.00 --> 3511.00] So it means you'll be able to use the same cable.
[3511.00 --> 3515.00] I thought it was only the 10 gigabit cables could do it.
[3515.00 --> 3521.00] So no, it's basically they're just, they're doubling up on what could be carried by the existing cables.
[3521.00 --> 3533.00] So right now you can, and I mean the cable certifications are like, you know, you can get a 5 gigabit cable and the chances of it doing 10 gigabit are probably pretty good if it was a good cable in the first place.
[3533.00 --> 3535.00] So I don't stress too much about that stuff.
[3535.00 --> 3538.00] How about this?
[3538.00 --> 3540.00] What else we got?
[3540.00 --> 3542.00] iPhone 8 swollen batteries.
[3542.00 --> 3543.00] Have you seen this?
[3543.00 --> 3544.00] Have you heard about this?
[3544.00 --> 3545.00] I have.
[3545.00 --> 3546.00] Hardwarezone.com.
[3546.00 --> 3549.00] The original poster on the form was vegetable stew.
[3549.00 --> 3550.00] Great name.
[3550.00 --> 3556.00] Reports of swollen batteries inside the new iPhone surface online.
[3556.00 --> 3563.00] Like I know this isn't going to matter or make a dent in anything, either their perception or their sales, but I still just, it's a little win.
[3563.00 --> 3565.00] I like when this happens to Apple.
[3565.00 --> 3566.00] Why?
[3566.00 --> 3567.00] I don't know.
[3567.00 --> 3569.00] Someone bought an expensive thing and it broke.
[3569.00 --> 3570.00] Well, they're going to be fine.
[3570.00 --> 3571.00] They're going to get another one.
[3571.00 --> 3572.00] It is a drag.
[3572.00 --> 3574.00] It might take a couple of weeks for them.
[3574.00 --> 3577.00] But I think it's just, you know what it is?
[3577.00 --> 3578.00] Wow.
[3578.00 --> 3579.00] It's not to anti fanboy.
[3579.00 --> 3581.00] It's just that some people are so hardcore.
[3581.00 --> 3583.00] Like I try not to fanboy anything.
[3583.00 --> 3585.00] Try to be scientific about things.
[3585.00 --> 3592.00] When people fanboy really hard, as many Apple people do, it's just nice to have something to point to be like, they're not perfect.
[3592.00 --> 3593.00] Okay.
[3593.00 --> 3594.00] They're not.
[3594.00 --> 3596.00] The iPhones aren't manna from heaven.
[3596.00 --> 3597.00] Right.
[3597.00 --> 3598.00] They screw up sometimes.
[3598.00 --> 3599.00] Okay.
[3599.00 --> 3600.00] Yeah.
[3600.00 --> 3603.00] So this happened in Taiwan and Japan.
[3603.00 --> 3612.00] After three days using the original charger, apparently one of them's body and screen split from the bloat.
[3612.00 --> 3615.00] I made a half centimeter gap.
[3615.00 --> 3616.00] Yeah.
[3616.00 --> 3617.00] That's how much it swelled.
[3617.00 --> 3618.00] Wow.
[3618.00 --> 3619.00] That's a lot.
[3619.00 --> 3627.00] There are unconfirmed reports coming in that the iPhone 8 Plus uses the same battery manufacturer, Ampere X Technologies Limited, as the Samsung Galaxy Note 7.
[3627.00 --> 3628.00] Burn baby burn.
[3628.00 --> 3629.00] Herp-a-derp.
[3629.00 --> 3634.00] Now, if that's true, then that looks pretty bad on Apple.
[3634.00 --> 3635.00] And Samsung.
[3635.00 --> 3636.00] Samsung?
[3636.00 --> 3640.00] Well, no, not Samsung, because I don't think, I mean, Samsung has sort of fixed their crap.
