From PC World: Not much is known about AMD’s monster Threadripper chips at this point except that they’ll appear this summer with up to 16 cores. You can now add another factoid to the fire though: The socket for the new CPU is called TR4—and it’s freaking giant.
Asus officials gave the world a...

We got to see all the touristy places around the city in addition to finding some lesser known spots. However, the months leading up to this trip was not an easy one.
