Channel TrashBench tested alternate component layouts in a dual-chamber PC case using an Asus ROG Strix RTX 3080, moving the GPU via PCIe riser cables to various positions while keeping case fans fixed. Placing the card directly against the side-intake fans produced the biggest gains: GPU core temperatures fell 16.7°C, hotspot dropped 19.3°C, VRAM cooled 14°C, and motherboard VRMs dropped about 8°C, with only a 1.1°C rise in CPU temperature.
A team of researchers has built ESauron, a proof-of-concept system that detects wireless, wired and offline spy cameras by sensing electromagnetic radiation emitted from their memory chips during video processing. The system works by triggering scene changes to provoke bursts of memory activity, then measuring the resulting EMR to detect and locate cameras. Tests on 50 camera products showed 100% detection accuracy after just four stimuli, with a detection range exceeding 20 meters even through obstructions.
