AMD confirms Ryzen CPUs for AM5 socket will indeed ship with TDP up to 170W
"AMD would like to issue a correction to the socket power and TDP limits of the upcoming AMD Socket AM5. AMD Socket AM5 supports up to a 170W TDP with a PPT up to 230W. "
"The new 230W socket power will be almost as high as Intel’s LGA1200-based Core i9-12900K which has 241W PL2/Maximum Turbo Power. One should note that this 170W TDP value was already mentioned by MSI, even though AMD until now did not confirm that this is TDP. Meanwhile, AMD’s own slides only mentioned ‘native support for up to 170W’."
Looks like the wattage memes won't be exclusive to Intel anymore... One thing to note however is that 5000X series did not include an iGPU while the 7000 series does so naturally, it would sip more power. But of course, so did Intel CPUs when we memed them.
AMD Radeon RX 7000 series could support DisplayPort 2.0 UHBR20 (80 Gbps) standard
I don't think it's a "could" but rather it "will" cause any upcoming GPUs not supporting DisplayPort 2.0 may as well commit Seppuku

Sony's investment conference has a lot of interesting insights as to their plans for the future including for PCs.
"Jim said the PC growth forecast is connected to the 2 live service games strategy...so the 2 unannounced live service games will be day one on PS5 AND PC. It's basically confirmed now. Factions and...something else."
I'd say this slide is a bit worry some cause Playstation will be drastically increasing their focus on live service games:
