Hey welcome to Zach's Tech Turf and Weekly Download episode number 104.
I'm wearing my Ben Roethlisberger jersey because Madden 19 released on PC this week
and I'm one of those guys that's been waiting an entire decade for this to happ1en.
I'm honestly surprised I'm taking the time to make this video when I should be playing
some more madden.
On today's episode I'm obviously gonna show you some Madden footage when I give you
this news, I got my cup of coffee right there, make sure you guys let me know in the comment
section what you're sippin' on, let's get into it.
To start off the tech news for the week, MSI has officially confirmed Intel's 9th generations
of CPUs for us, despite Intel not even confirming them yet.
I don't wanna talk about this long, I've reported about this 9th generation for weeks
now, but it was pretty funny that MSI stated that they will update their Z370 motherboards
to support the new processors.
Great job MSI, thanks for keeping us updated.
In some more news that I've been reporting for weeks about, we might finally have an
answer to Nvidia's next generation of graphics cards at their event on August 20th.
This week they finally announced that they will provide quote spectacular surprises at
their event on August 20th.
Not gonna talk more about this one as well, we pretty much all know the latest and greatest
GeForce 11 series rumors by now.
Next up AMD officially launched their new B450 motherboards this week which are a direct
replacement for the ever so popular B350 motherboards.
The B450s are perfect consumer sweet spot for most of us PC gamers, and the new chipset
is now offering the ability to use an SSD to speed up your hard drive as well as full
support for every single Ryzen CPU.
No more worrying about your Ryzen APU working in a B350, the B450s are finally here.
Moving on Logitech announced that they are acquiring Blue Microphone which is definitely
a bold move and one that I like from them.
Blue Microphone has created some pretty solid products for us content creators, make sure
you check out my Budget Twitch Streaming Starter Guide video, and they'll only do better
with a massive company like Logitech behind them.
To start off the PC gaming news for the week, yep, let's quickly talk about how my favorite
game in the world, Madden, finally released on PC this week.
The last time this game was on the PC was Madden 08, and I've seriously been buying
consoles for the sole reason of playing Madden ever since then.
I no longer have to do that thanks to EA and Madden 19 is actually a very solid game which
is a little surprising.
I've been playing for a few hours now and the graphics are top notch, it's running
buttery smooth, and I even played my first game online against someone and didn't have
any issues.
Well, other than me getting my butt handed to me.
Moving on to why the early Madden release is even possible, Origin launched their Access
Premiere server this week and this is how some of us are able to play Madden an entire
week early.
The Premier service adds on to the previous Origin Access subscription by allowing you
to play their new top of the line games 10 days earlier than everyone else.
I don't essentially own Madden, if I unsubscribed I wouldn't be able to play it, but for $100
a year this thing will definitely pay for itself.
Next up No Man's Sky did some serious damage on the Steam Charts this week, as there was
almost 100,000 players playing at the same time which is really insane.
I actually talked about my initial thoughts of this NEXT update which has everyone going
crazy, so make sure you check out this month's episode of PC Gaming Playback which I just
uploaded on Wednesday.
Speaking of crazy updates, the Stardew Valley Multiplayer update is finally out on a live
release and out of beta.
Multiplayer was originally announced all the way back in 2016 and you can now finally build
up that farm with some friends.
And to wrap up the PC gaming news for the week, the Destiny 2 matchmaking servers have
a huge bug in them right now, but most players actually voted for Bungie to keep it that
way.
In the PVP quickplay Crucible mode, the servers are supposed to matchmake you with similar
skilled players, but that's not working at all right now and everyone is getting matched
with everyone.
This isn't a big deal because there's a completely separated ranked mode that is
working, and it's pretty funny that players want Bungie to keep it this way.
Well that wraps up Weekly Download episode number 104.
I know I keep talking about the studio tour, I have it scheduled for next Wednesday's
video so please make sure you stay tuned for that.
