iPhone 8/Plus iPhone 8 - New modem?
Does anyone know if the modem in the iPhone 8, unlocked, Apple store version is still being made with the Qualcomm modem (for the US market)? I know in Germany, Apple was forced to use the Intel modem for all the iPhone 8 devices, but I'm not sure if that applies here in the US. -

MP 7,1 Thoughts - New AMD Epyc Server CPU's, benefit MP 7,1?
AMD has been on a roll as of late with its new consumer/prosumer CPU's, but I didn't even see coming was a server CPU from AMD. From what I read and seen the new AMD Epyc server CPU out performs Intel's current Xeon's both in price and performance. It got me thinking, if AMD's Epyc server CPU's...- AnimeFunTv

Without Qualcomm, at least I don't have to consider the iPhone anymore
At least without Qualcomm models of the iPhone, I don't even have to consider it as an option anymore, and I can go ahead with the Note 9 with no regrets.
