Apple might refresh the iMac before November
Through a surprise announcement
Amid the ongoing hype for the iPhone 15 series, it’s easy to forget about the iPad and the iMac. However, numerous rumors have kept speculating an update coming soon for Apple’s other products. Today, a new report is once again hinting that a launch event is coming in the immediate future.
According to Bloomberg, Apple will host a surprise launch event for a new iMac before the month ends. To be specific, Mark Gurman says that the event is scheduled before Apple releases its earnings report on November 2.
As you might surmise, that doesn’t leave a lot of room for a potential launch. After all, the month is already winding down. Gurman is insistent, though.
Besides a source on the matter, the report says that shipments for a new iMac or a MacBook Pro are delayed until November, hinting that new models are shipping then. Gurman also says that a November schedule for an earning report is historically preceded by a sudden announcement.
This month, Bloomberg has been one of the staunchest speculators for an Apple event this month. The speculation insists on modest upgrades for the iPad, MacBook, and iMac lineups. Apple has not announced anything yet. If anything, its newest surprise product was a new Apple Pencil touting USB-C and a cheaper price tag.

AMD expands Ryzen PRO 9000 series processor lineup
AMD brings 3D V-Cache technology to commercial segment
AMD has announced an expansion of its enterprise desktop lineup with new Ryzen PRO 9000 Series processors. These are built on the Zen 5 architecture and set to debut in the second half of 2026.
This is the first time AMD is bringing its high-bandwidth 3D V-Cache technology into the commercial workstation segment.
This way, the company unlocks massive performance leaps for data-heavy professional industries.
The introduction of 3D V-Cache directly targets power users handling complex, intensive digital pipelines.
By vertically stacking additional last-level cache directly onto the processor die, the hardware drastically cuts down memory latency and accelerates data access.
Primary beneficiaries of this architecture are creative and technical professionals, including:
- video editors and animators
- 3D artists and VFX creators
- engineers and architects
- developers and data scientists
The expanded hardware lineup spans configurations from six to 16 performance cores. Power limits break past traditional limits, or up to a sustained 170 watts to maintain peak clock speeds during overnight renders.
The range also makes the lineup scalable from compact desktop systems to full-scale tower workstation systems.
The AMD Ryzen PRO 9000 series also supports up to 256GB of memory to prevent system crashes. Enterprise system rollouts are expected to begin later this year.

AMD to bring FSR Upscaling 4.1 to RDNA 3 GPUs this July
Better visuals for players on PC, consoles soon
AMD has announced through Senior Vice President and General Manager Jack Huynh that FSR 4.1 upscaling technology is coming to RDNA 3 GPUs this July.
Huynh confirmed that Radeon RX 7000 series graphics cards, among other older graphics architectures, will receive the update in July. Older RDNA 2 cards will also benefit in early 2027.
The decision directly benefits budget-conscious PC gamers and handheld console users who have opted out of expensive hardware upgrades. Instead of having to purchase new GPUs, they will simply have to download the software driver.
FSR (FidelityFX Super Resolution) 4.1 marks a major shift for AMD. It introduces a machine learning-powered algorithm that replaces traditional analytical upscaling.
By updating their software drivers, users can access cleaner image reconstruction, reduced motion ghosting, and better performance with FSR Upscaling 4.1 across more than 300 supported gaming titles on their RDNA 3 graphics.
Beyond desktop players, the rollout carries significant implications for the wider gaming ecosystem.
Devices like the ROG Ally X and Lenovo Legion Go run on RDNA 3 integrated graphics. This means handheld gamers will see immediate frame rate and visual fidelity improvements this summer.
Furthermore, current-generation consoles like the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, as well as Valve’s Steam Deck, rely on RDNA 2 architecture. This means AMD’s early 2027 roadmap lays the groundwork for massive visual optimization across the entire console market.
