Apple is once again the world's most valuable company, taking the top spot back from NVIDIA after Friday's trading session. Apple shares slipped 1.2% on October 30, leaving it with a market cap of $5.03 trillion, while NVIDIA dropped 4.2% to close at $4.93 trillion. This is the first time Apple has been ahead since it briefly overtook NVIDIA in late July. For context, NVIDIA became the first company to cross $5 trillion almost exactly a year ago, in October 2025. Friday's sell-off came after a run of tech earnings that disappointed investors, with Intel and Amazon following earlier reports from Alphabet and Meta. Intel's stock fell roughly 29% on Friday after a weak Q4 outlook, which CNBC called its worst day since the 1970s.

It looks like the bigger concern is whether the huge spending on AI data centers will pay off, and NVIDIA, as the main supplier of AI GPUs, is directly tied to those budgets. The outlays have grown large enough that Alphabet and Amazon have seen their free cash flow turn negative, pushing them toward debt markets for funding. Apple, meanwhile, has largely stayed out of the AI infrastructure race and kept its capital spending in check. Its shares are up 27% this year, more than twice NVIDIA's gain, and its free cash flow for fiscal 2026 (ended September 30) is projected to climb 38% to $142 billion. The gap between the two is only about $100 billion, though, so the ranking could easily flip back with one good day for NVIDIA.

Instagram is testing a new format called Features, which lets creators upload horizontal videos up to 90 minutes long. The test started on Monday with a small group of US creators, following an earlier trial in Brazil, and it's aimed squarely at podcasters, comedians, and other long-form creators who mostly publish on YouTube today. Instagram head Adam Mosseri and VP of Product Tessa Lyons announced it in a video. Plenty of creators already post Reels clips to promote full episodes hosted elsewhere, so Instagram now wants to host the full episode too. Reels can link straight to the full video, and Features will also be recommended on the Explore page.

While YouTube shares ad revenue with creators in its Partner Program, Instagram has no plans to do the same for Features, at least for now. An Instagram representative said the company is funding some creators directly, but that it's "too early to share a long-term monetization model." Lyons said established creators can bring their existing sponsorships and branded content along. Instagram already tried long-form video once with IGTV, which launched in 2018 and was shut down in 2022. This time, the TV seems to be a bigger part of the plan, as the Instagram for TV app, which debuted on Amazon Fire TV in December 2025, has now reached Apple TV in the US. There's no firm date for a wider rollout, and without a revenue share, it's hard to see many creators leaving YouTube anytime soon.

NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5080 has seen a significant increase in its listed price over the past few weeks, with this high-end GPU now costing nearly $2,000. Due to price hikes throughout the supply chain and the GPU's 16 GB of GDDR7 memory, which is currently in short supply, the listing price has doubled its original MSRP. NVIDIA initially launched the GeForce RTX 5080 in early 2025 with an MSRP of $999. However, add-in card partners introduced custom solutions such as new PCBs, enhanced cooling, and other features that gradually increased the price. The pricing issue escalated when the memory supply became constrained, making the GDDR7 memory modules used in this GPU much more expensive.

Across U.S.-based retailers like Best Buy, Micro Center, Amazon, Newegg, B&H, and others, the listing price now starts at nearly $2,000. On B&H, older listings show better pricing but are marked as "Temporary out of stock." Only the in-stock listings are priced at $2,000 or more, indicating that new pricing adjustments have been made across all retailers. In just two months, the listings have jumped from $1,200 to $2,000, which is a dramatic increase in pricing.Below are screenshots collected across U.S.-based retailers.

Anthropic has publicly filed for an IPO, submitting an S-1 to the SEC on October 26 with plans to list on the Nasdaq under the ticker "ANT." The filing leaves the price range and share count blank for now, but the Wall Street Journal reports the offering could raise $100 billion or more at a valuation of $1.5 to $2 trillion. If that ends up being the case, it would top the record SpaceX set with its June IPO. Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley head a long list of underwriters, and trading is reportedly targeted for the week of November 16. The prospectus also gives the first official look at Anthropic's books.

Revenue for the first half of 2026 came in at a massive $16.3 billion, up from $1.16 billion a year earlier. The company also posted an $80.7 billion net loss. However, about $72.4 billion of that is a non-cash charge tied to the changing value of convertible notes and similar instruments, and the operating loss was a much smaller $693 million. Anthropic says more than 11,900 customers now spend at least $100,000 a year, and it holds about $131.7 billion in cash and short-term investments. It has also signed huge compute commitments, including up to $114.5 billion with Google, at least $110 billion with Amazon, and a separate deal for AMD Instinct MI450 GPUs. Of course, the filing comes with the usual warnings, as Anthropic says it may not reach or sustain profitability and expects costs to keep rising. OpenAI, meanwhile, says it doesn't expect to go public until next year.

A Reddit user in the r/watercooling subreddit bought an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 Dual Edition from Amazon and noticed that something was off. This was his second 9950X3D2 chip, and both chips were sold and shipped by Amazon and arrived in sealed retail boxes, with identical markings on the heat spreader. Flip them over, however, and the newer one looks nothing like the first. It has a large empty area in the middle packed with tiny capacitors, while a genuine AM5 Ryzen chip has gold contact pads covering nearly its entire underside. The user initially assumed AMD had quietly revised the design. Commenters thought otherwise, and the top reply suggests that someone delidded a real 9950X3D2, attached its heat spreader to an old Intel processor, and sent the fake back to Amazon for a refund. That chip has now ended up in our Redditor's hands.

In this case, the layout is a big giveaway, since Intel desktop chips place many of their capacitors on the underside of the substrate, whereas AMD keeps them on top to leave room for contacts. The lettering on the fake also looks smudged, possibly from the delid or a reprint. It's still unclear which Intel CPU sits underneath, and there's no word from Amazon so far on the matter. That's a costly mistake too, considering the 9950X3D2 launched at $899. Amazon has been here before, apparently, with reports of a fake Ryzen 7 9800X3D that turned out to be a 2011-era FX-4100 with a sticker on top. Buyers are advised to record unboxings of expensive parts and, in the case of CPUs, closely inspect both sides of the chip.

NVIDIA has raised the price of the Shield TV Pro from $199.99 to $299.99, effective October 2. The streaming box launched in October 2019 at $199.99 and held that price for almost seven years. Earlier this year, NVIDIA promised to keep updating the Shield TV, with hardware engineering SVP Andrew Bell saying the company had no plans to abandon it anytime soon. NVIDIA has also stopped making the standard, tube-shaped Shield TV, which had reportedly been out of stock for months. That leaves the Pro as the only Shield model in production. NVIDIA confirmed both changes in a statement. Here's what the company said:

Starting October 2, SHIELD Pro will be priced at $299. The cost of components, including memory, has increased substantially across the industry. We've also stopped producing the standard SHIELD TV model as we focus on production for SHIELD TV Pro.

Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNPS) today announced a strategic agreement with Amazon to accelerate Amazon's custom silicon innovation and advance the development of increasingly complex AI-powered products and cloud infrastructure. The multi-year agreement marks the expansion of Synopsys' silicon IP business to serve increasing demand for application-optimized IP with Amazon as its lead customer.

Amazon continues to build on its leadership and longstanding investment in a broad portfolio of purpose-built chips, including Nitro for cloud security, network and storage, Graviton for general-purpose computing, and Trainium for AI training and inference workloads. Building on more than 15 years of collaboration, the agreement expands Amazon's use of Synopsys' IP to include application-optimized silicon IP. The agreement also expands Amazon's use of Synopsys EDA, simulation and analysis (S&A), and agentic AI technologies. Synopsys and Amazon will work to accelerate multiphysics solutions on Trainium and Graviton.

AMD's Ryzen 5 5500F and Ryzen 5 7500 are finally available in the US, but both are selling above their announced pricing. On Amazon, the Ryzen 5 5500F lists for $120 and the Ryzen 5 7500 for $210, each $20 over AMD's MSRP of $99 and $189, respectively. The Ryzen 5 5500F has been spotted fluctuating between $118 and $125. Both listings are sold directly by Amazon rather than third-party sellers, so this doesn't appear to be a case of resellers padding the price. AMD revealed the two budget chips nearly two weeks ago, though they only became available for purchase now. At the time of writing, Amazon is the only US retailer stocking either chip, with Micro Center and Newegg still showing no listings.

To recap, the Ryzen 5 5500F is a 6-core, 12-thread Zen 3 part built on the Vermeer die, unlike the older $90 Ryzen 5 5500, which uses Cezanne. That gives it PCIe 4.0 support and a 4.4 GHz boost clock, versus PCIe 3.0 and 4.2 GHz on the 5500. The Ryzen 5 7500 is essentially a Ryzen 5 7500F with integrated graphics, packing six Zen 4 cores, DDR5 support, PCIe 5.0, and a 5 GHz boost clock, all within a 65 W envelope. AMD's Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 saw something similar earlier this year, launching on Amazon $100 above MSRP before settling down once other retailers picked it up, so pricing here could correct itself too.

Rockstar Games has announced Grand Theft Auto 6: The Album, a 34-track record made in collaboration with Atlantic Records and set to release alongside the game on November 19. Six songs are already streaming on Spotify and Apple Music, including tracks from Travis Scott, Yung Lean, Morgan Wallen, Rauw Alejandro, and Keith Richards, with the rest of the lineup still under wraps. The album will also get a physical release with three tiers. A CD version runs $19.98, a standard vinyl edition with magenta and blue splatter discs costs $49.98, and a limited-edition vinyl with liquid-filled discs tops out at $124.98.

That last option interestingly costs more than the game's own $100 Ultimate Edition, and it comes with exclusive artwork alongside colorway variants sold through retailers like Best Buy, Amazon, Target, and Urban Outfitters. Pre-orders for the album are open now, with physical copies shipping from November 20, a day after GTA 6 itself launches. Rockstar has leaned on music tie-ins before, but a full commercial album alongside a mainline GTA release is new territory. The pricing on the top-tier vinyl certainly suggests Rockstar is treating this as a genuine collector's item rather than just a marketing freebie.

Nintendo's Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Switch 2 sold out within minutes of preorders going live, and scalpers wasted no time flipping it for two to three times retail on eBay. The console launched at $519.99 through Best Buy, Walmart, Target, and Amazon, $20 above the recently hiked $499.99 base Switch 2 price. All four retailers ran out almost immediately, and Nintendo's own store now shows it sold out too. eBay listings currently stretch from $700 up to $1,700 for the console alone, with some sellers bundling in the matching Pro Controller, carrying case, and even the upcoming Ocarina of Time remake, despite Nintendo never offering that combo at retail.

Buying all four items from Nintendo directly costs about $720, so most bundles are charging well over double that. A few have gone further, asking $2,000 for the full set. Nintendo tried to keep scalpers off the original Switch 2 by requiring 50 hours of logged Switch playtime before allowing a preorder. There's no word yet on whether similar rules apply to the next restock, but given how fast this batch vanished, some kind of gating system looks likely. Anyone who missed out is stuck waiting for another round of orders to open if they don't want to pay ridiculous scalping prices. The console ships October 29, a week ahead of the remake on November 5.

PS5 Pro consoles have all but vanished from major US retailers in the wake of GTA 6's extended Netflix reveal, with third-party sellers on Amazon and Walmart charging as much as $1,300 for units that normally go for $899. PlayStation Direct remains the lone major US retailer still selling at MSRP, while Best Buy and Target have sold through their stock entirely. eBay listings for new consoles have reportedly hit as high as $1,200, though there's no telling how many buyers are actually paying these scalper prices.

GTA 6 is confirmed to include PS5 Pro enhancements, though Rockstar hasn't detailed what those improvements actually are. Given how CPU-bound the console is, it's unlikely the Pro pushes GTA 6 past 30 FPS, so buyers chasing the "best" experience may be paying a hefty premium for a smaller gain than they expect. Sony is expected to restock retailers ahead of GTA 6's November 19 launch. For now, anyone not in a rush is probably better off waiting than paying a $400+ markup on a console that may not even hit a stable 40 or 60 FPS in the game.

Amazon Web Services (AWS), an Amazon.com, Inc. company (NASDAQ: AMZN), and NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) today announced a major expansion of their strategic collaboration to meet surging global demand for AI infrastructure as demand continues to accelerate. Building on already-rapid customer adoption of NVIDIA-accelerated compute on AWS, the companies plan to deploy 2 million additional NVIDIA GPUs across AWS's global infrastructure and deepen their work together across AI factories, CPUs, networking, open models, data processing and robotics, delivering co-engineered AI solutions that enable customers to accelerate AI development and deployment at unprecedented scale.

AI workloads are scaling at a swift pace, from how models are trained and run, to how data is processed, indexed and used to power intelligent applications. Customers are moving from pilot to production and scaling workloads across agentic AI, scientific discovery, enterprise automation and robotics. They need broader model choice, faster data pipelines and new capabilities for emerging use cases like physical AI. They also need confidence that the underlying infrastructure can keep pace with their own ability to innovate while maintaining the highest level of security and reliability for mission-critical workloads.

NVIDIA has announced NVHBM, a custom high-bandwidth memory technology built into the HBM base die rather than on the compute die itself. This approach, which NVIDIA plans to use in its future GPUs, is now extended to third-party XPU customers through NVLink Fusion. The main idea behind it is rather simple, since standard HBM puts the memory controller on the compute die, that is consuming silicon that could otherwise be used for compute. NVHBM moves that controller into the 3D HBM stack, which has a notable effect on performance and efficiency. Compared to standard HBM4E, NVIDIA claims up to 30% more memory bandwidth, 15% lower HBM power consumption, and up to 25% more usable compute die area on the processing unit.

The area savings come primarily from a redesigned physical memory interface. Standard HBM uses wider interface connections that increase package footprint, on the other hand, the NVHBM custom PHY reduces that I/O area by up to 67% compared to JEDEC HBM4E. Also, the narrower interface simplifies interposer routing, freeing up to 80% more usable silicon across the layout. The reduced PHY footprint also means fewer routing constraints on the interposer, which matters when you're trying to pack multiple HBM stacks alongside a large compute die, explains NVIDIA in a dedicated blog post.

Intel made a surprising comeback in Amazon's CPU sales rankings today, with two of its processors breaking into the retailer's top 10 CPUs sold in the United States. This marks the first time in months that Intel has been among the top 10 choices for gamers across the country, as AMD continues to dominate the chart and holds most of the leading positions. However, the appearance of Intel's Core Ultra 7 270K Plus and Core i7-14700K signifies a notable shift from the situation over the past year. Intel was effectively absent from the top 10 during AMD's strongest periods, making the latest rankings an especially interesting development for the DIY market, particularly driven by value.

The Core Ultra 7 270K Plus has made the biggest jump, reaching sixth place after previously being much lower on the list. Intel's latest "Arrow Lake Refresh" processor combines 24 cores with strong single- and multithreaded performance, and aggressive pricing has made it significantly more attractive to buyers. The Core i7-14700K has also climbed into the top 10, with its appeal likely tied to its compatibility with both DDR4 and DDR5 memory during a particularly challenging time for PC DIY enthusiasts. That flexibility is becoming increasingly valuable as high DDR5 prices continue to influence system-building decisions. The older "Raptor Lake Refresh" chip remains a particularly capable option for users who want to reuse existing LGA 1700 hardware and DDR4 memory, which is also currently more affordable than any DDR5 platform.

Iqunix showed off the EC75 earlier this year at Computex, but the peripheral maker has now officially released the EC75 HE for sale, simultaneously revealing the pricing and finer details of the keyboard. At the time of writing, there is a store page for the EC75 HE, but it is not live just yet. The only place to buy an EC75 HE is on Amazon, where it costs $179.99.

As the name suggests, the EC75 HE has a 75% layout, which many see as a good balance between everyday productivity use-cases and gaming, since it provides the same space-saving benefits as a 65% keyboard but retains the function row. The EC75 has a CNC aluminium mid-case with an injection-molded bottom case, Hall effect sensing, and an 8 kHz polling rate. Iqunix has foregone wireless connectivity, relying instead on USB Type-C exclusively.

Following a round of layoffs and the apparent cancellation of an in-progress Lord of the Rings MMO, Amazon has officially cancelled active development of both Throne of Liberty and Lost Ark, announcing that it would hand off server management to each game's respective dev team. This is only Amazon's latest move in what was previously revealed to be a shift in strategy away from game development.

This means that Throne of Liberty will be fully in the hands of NCSoft's Western division, FirstSpark Games, and Lost Ark will be handed over to Smilegate. Lost Ark is expected to transition to its new management in early 2027, while Throne of Liberty will move over in Q4 2026, although no specific dates have been set. From a player perspective, there will be changes, but both studios have promised to minimize interruptions.

Crystal Dynamics was revealed to be working on two new Tomb Raider games at the December 2025 Game Awards: Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis (a "reimagining" of the first Tomb Raider adventure), announced for 2026, and Tomb Raider: Catalyst, originally slated for launch in 2027. Now, after delaying Legacy of Atlantis to February 2027, Amazon Games General Manager, Jeffrey Gattis, has confirmed in an interview with The Game Business that Tomb Raider: Catalyst has been moved to February.

We have announced the two Tomb Raider titles. Atlantis comes February 12 next year, and then we'll follow on in 2028 with the next one. We're excited about those. There are some other AAA things that are in various stages of discussion right now.

Following the recent launch of the Keychron K4 Ultra and K10 Ultra, the accessory maker has officially launched the new K5 Ultra 8K, a low-profile wireless mechanical keyboard with a full 100% layout and sleek cherry wood accents. The K5 Ultra is the latest version of the low-profile K Ultra-series, which means it uses the same ZMK firmware and has the same 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth 5.2 wireless connectivity as the previously announced K3 Ultra had. The K5 Ultra has launched with an MSRP of $114.99, and is available in black on the Keychron online store or on Amazon. The K5 Ultra is also capable of refresh rates of up to 8 kHz over both the wired USB Type-C connection and the 2.4 GHz connection. Wireless connectivity is powered by a 2,400 mAh battery, and Keychron cites 370 hours of use from a single charge with the backlighting disabled and the keyboard running at an 8 kHz polling rate.

The Keychron K5 Ultra uses a proper full-size layout and includes both a programmable knob above the backspace key and a macro row above the num pad. The K5 Ultra is available with Keychron's relatively new Milk POM low-profile switches—which follow the Gateron Low-Profile 2.0 pin layout—in three switch flavors. Milk POM Reds are linear with a 45 gf actuation force, while the Milk POM Browns are tactile with a 50 gf actuation force, and the Milk POM Banana switches are a strong tactile switch with 57 gf actuation force. All three switches have 3.1 mm of total travel, but the Reds have 1.3 mm of pre-travel, while the two tactile varieties have 1.7 mm pre-travel. The K5 Ultra measures in at 436.6 x 128.29 mm and has a 15.55 mm front height. It also features two-stage flip-out feet for different typing angles.

Here are some of the first pictures of the AWS Graviton5, the company's in-house server processor designed by Annapurna Labs, which it developed not just for running its own server infrastructure, but also its AI inferencing infrastructure. The package has four chiplets, each built on the TSMC 3 nm foundry node. It has a total CPU core count of 192, all of which are Arm V3 performance cores with 1 MB of dedicated cache. The package has a 12-channel DDR5 memory interface that supports speeds of up to DDR5-8800 for whole-package memory bandwidth of over 800 GB/s. It also features a 96-lane PCI-Express Gen 6 root complex.

Although a disaggregated chip, AWS designed the Graviton 5 to feature full cache coherency among its chiplets, enabled by its 420 GB/s die-to-die interconnect bandwidth. Each chiplet has a quarter of the package's resources—48 Arm V3 cores, 3-channel DDR5 IMC, and a 24-lane PCIe Gen 6 root complex. AWS is gunning for a 25% performance improvement over the company's AWS G4 instances that are powered by Intel Xeon Scalable "Cascade Lake" or AMD EPYC "Genoa" processors.

IO Interactive, the independent video game developer and publisher behind the HITMAN franchise, and Amazon MGM Studios today debuted the launch trailer for 007 First Light, IO Interactive's standalone, reimagined James Bond origin story. 007 First Light is set to release on May 27, 2026, on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, and in Summer 2026 on Nintendo Switch 2. Pre-orders are available now, and players who pre-order 007 First Light will get upgraded to the 007 First Light - Deluxe Edition for free, granting a 24-hour Early Access, as well as exclusive in-game skins and outfits.

In 007 First Light, James Bond (portrayed by Patrick Gibson) steps into the world of espionage after catching MI6's attention, beating the odds in a precarious situation in Iceland. Bond finds an unexpected advocate in M (Priyanga Burford), who sees his ability to stay in control under pressure and backs his judgment in the field. That confidence is tested by John Greenway (Lennie James), a former 00 agent and the program's hardline training instructor, whose disciplined, by-the-book philosophy clashes with Bond's instinctive, improvisational style. When the rogue return of 009 becomes the 00-Programme's first real test, Bond is set on a journey across the world, pursuing leads from the quiet Carpathian Mountains to the dangerous black market of Aleph, and into the lair of the unpredictable Bawma (Lenny Kravitz).

Meta has signed an agreement to deploy AWS Graviton processors at scale. The deal marks a significant expansion of a long-standing partnership between the two companies as Meta builds its next generation of AI.

The deployment starts with tens of millions of Graviton cores, with the flexibility to expand as Meta's AI capabilities grow. The deal reflects a shift in how AI infrastructure gets built: while GPUs remain essential for training large models, the rise of agentic AI is creating massive demand for CPU-intensive workloads—real-time reasoning, code generation, search, and orchestrating multi-step tasks. Graviton5 is purpose-built for these workloads, giving Meta the processing power to run them efficiently at scale.

We recently reported on Nintendo's pricing changes for physical and digital game media on the Switch 2, with Yoshi and the Mysterious Book coming in at $59.99 on digital and $69.99 for the physical edition. While that price difference was a bit of a shock to the system for many Nintendo fans, but, according to a recent post by u/mason2393 on Reddit, showing off an Amazon listing for Elden Ring Tarnished Edition for the Switch 2, that game may come as even more of a shock to players, with the listing showing an apparent retail price of $79.99 for the physical edition game key card.

Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition has not yet launched, with the Amazon listing showing a December 31, 2026 release-day delivery option, but it will feature the base game as well as the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion, new weapons, armor Torrent skins, and other additional content, according to the Nintendo eShop. At the time of writing, the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion costs $39.99 on Steam, alone, with the base Elden Ring game coming in at $59.99.
