You Get MORE with NVIDIA on these Back to School Promos

It's back to school season and that only means one thing, you need a new laptop and NVIDIA just showcased some of the units that have better computing and graphics because they have it inside.

The GEFORCE RTX GPU's certainly has impressed a lot of consumers with its capability to service those who are in content creation, gaming, and even the usual office or school work. Videos won't look archaic or digitized and can harness AI via its Tensor Cores which are not available on ordinary laptops. I like the GEFORCE RTX 4090 which they showcased during the event, and used to convert 1080p videos into 4K HDR resolution with no hitches.

Recently, NVIDIA also launched Project G Assist which they revealed at COMPUTEX 2024. It's basically an RTX powered AI that you can use to enhance the utilization of games and apps while they are running. You now don't have to use walkthroughs for the game you are excited about because if you use it in game, it answers your queries and gives you more context of what is happening in game. Imagine the things you can do with it when you are playing RPG's and story form games because it'll be easier to finish tasks, and give you text or speech answers instantly.

NVIDIA Consumer Lead Jerome Matti says "Today, we are excited to share new tech from our partners Acer, ASUS, Lenovo, PC Express, Silicon Valley and more."

Senior Tech Manager from NVIDIA John Gillooly added "ATX AI PC's have come a long way. It's something that we have been talking about for years. It's both cool and scary, but the technology is here. AI for Gaming in 2018, AI for Creators in 2019, AI for Broadcast and Video Conferencing in 2020, AI for Video in 2023 and AI FOR productivity this 2024. NVIDIA Studio is a program for content creators, and it has been really successful and we didn't realize that it was going to be big. We are now faster and have better quality, a night and day comparison than what we were able to do before. From DLSS that gets framerates higher and better quality, faster AI image generation in graphics software on RTX AI Apps, the number 1 apps now have RTX acceleration in all of them. This places GEFORCE RTX at the head of the pack compared to Radeons in the market."

Chat RTX is a local chatbot tech demo with the TensorRT-LLM that also supports Voice and Image files. In Computex 2024, they also showcased NVIDIA ACE Path that makes lifelike Game Characters, something powerful that developers can use. G Assist on the other hand can be used in game, it scans, give you advise on system optimization and change settings for better performance. RTX Remix is a tool for game models, it allows you to enhance textures, assets than the usual low res texture you get on games. NVIDIA App Beta is now available as a software package in new laptops released by different manufacturers. If you are looking for a laptop that can do this and more, make sure it's equipped with an NVIDIA in it.

The NVIDIA app might be in Beta, the second edition was released a few weeks ago and will only publish officially when they're happy with it.

PC Express VP for Sales and Marketing Jesse Tan shared "We have a big promo for best I class laptops, different NVIDIA based laptops from Acer, Lenovo, HP, Gigabyte, MSI, with the latest NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX hardware and free stuff plus installment upto 36 months. They also have brand promos with free GC's, game controllers,  printers, monitors, (depends on the model and brand). From today til June 30, we'll be giving away an XBOX controller for every purchase of units with the RTX4060 as part of the promo."

Silicon Valley's Archie Buenaventura says "We have exclusive bundles with MS Office Home and Student, ASUS TUF backpack, 3000 gc sm voucher, MSI Mouse, Mousepad, Essential Backpack and have this on Home Credit installments. Some will have higher GC amounts especially with the MSI Cyborg 15 and Predator Helios, just check our Silicon Valley stores to know more about it."

That's a lot, so make sure you've got that NVIDIA on your laptop and PC's!

Hon. LUIS CHAVIT SINGSON Set to Give 7 MILLION "E-GRACIA" On His Birthday

Luis Chavit Singson talks about E-Gracia, his birthday and more! (photo credits: 258 Tri Media and his official FB Page)

It's TRUE and I've personally verified it from the man himself.

Former Governor of Ilocos Sur, Mayor of Narvacan, Deputy National Security Adviser of the Philippines and Filipino Businessman Hon. LUIS CHAVIT SINGSON is giving away a whopping 7 MILLION Pesos on his birthday this coming June 21.

6 Million of this prize will be for 200 Winners of 10 Thousand Pesos each, and 1 Million will go to one lucky winner.

Here's his announcement when we talked to him over dinner:

 

Here's the mechanics on how you can join:
 

 

Instead of him receiving gifts on his birthday, he chose to do this instead. He was very eager to share his blessings and want to actually just spend it in Singapore or some other country because it gives him time to rest and just enjoy life. He's 41 (verified by him too), and he's been working hard all these years. He also got resuscitated thrice for his second life and got in danger more than 7 times. Some people fear him, look at him differently because of his stature, but at that short time that I got to talk to him, he's a very nice and approachable guy.

He also talked lengthily about his future projects including a plan to put up investments from Korea to the Philippines, perhaps produce a couple of shows too.  I heard some little talk about VAGABOND one of the highest rating series from Korea and Lee Seung Gi, plus his business plans, a Korean studio in Vigan, his adventures with Manny Pacquiao in Japan, and a few more things so you might want to listen to that too. 

 Here's our short talk after dinner:

Now, there's more than one reason to download their app called E-Gracia on Android and the App Store. If you want to win, just follow the instructions on his giveaway and who knows, you might just be the lucky one!
