AMD introduced new low-cost Ryzen 3 processors
If you're interested in computer hardware, you've probably noticed the huge advances in CPUs that have taken place over the past few years. We can thank the society for this AMD, which with its processors Ryze literally turned the entire market upside down. The latter, thanks to the years of dominance of Intel, considerably stagnated, to the detriment of end users. The processors from AMD presented today are an illustrative example of the leap development of recent years. These are the lowest models from the current generation of Ryzen processors, namely Ryzen 3 3100 a Ryzen 3 3300X. In both cases, these are quad-core processors with SMT support (i.e. virtual 8 cores). The cheaper model has clocks 3,6 / 3,9 GHz, the more expensive one then 3,8 / 4,3 GHz (normal frequency/boost). In both cases the chips have 2 MB L2, 16 MB L3 cache and TDP 65 W. With this announcement, AMD completes its product line of processors and currently covers absolutely all conceivable segments from the lowest low-end to the high-end for enthusiasts. The new processors will go on sale at the beginning of May, and the Czech prices are also known - it will be on Alza Ryzen 3 3100 available for NOK 2 Ryzen 3 3300X then for NOK 3. Considering that two years ago, Intel was selling chips of this configuration (599C/4T) for triple the price, the current state of affairs is very pleasant for PC enthusiasts. In connection with the new processors, AMD also announced the arrival of the long-awaited chipset B550 for motherboards that arrive during June and they will especially bring support PCIe 4.0.
Information on 267 million FB users sold for $610
Security experts from a research company Cyble published information that a dataset of information on more than 267 million users was sold on the dark web in recent days for an incredible 610 dollars. According to findings so far, the leaked data did not include, for example, passwords, but the file did contain e-mail addresses, names, Facebook identifiers, dates of birth or telephone numbers of individual users. This is practically an ideal source of data for others phishing attacks, which, thanks to leaked information, can be very well targeted, especially at less "savvy" internet users. It's not yet entirely clear where the leaked data came from, but it's speculated to be part of one of the larger earlier leaks - Facebook has a very rich history in this regard. Facebook has not yet issued an official statement. Although no passwords have been leaked, it is generally recommended change your Facebook account password once in a while. At the same time, it is necessary to have passwords are different – that is, so that you do not have the same password on Facebook as, for example, on your main e-mail box. Securing your account (not just the Facebook one) also helps two-factor authentication, which can also be turned on on Facebook, in the section dedicated to account security.
