With this kind of endurance and $/GB, there is no reason at this time to buy Optane over more RAM, NAND SSDs, and battery backups. Maybe the next generation of Optane will be worth it, but this generation certainly is not.

If Chrome is going to ship SharedArrayBuffer, then why will the resolution of performance.now() and other timer APIs continue to be neutered? I don't have any preference one way or the other for implementing SharedArrayBuffer, but I am

Still no user-grantable audio capture permission… Why are only OEM-blessed apps allowed to capture system audio output, when any app can already request permission to screen capture?

The 1800X will use 130W+ in the same scenarios as the 6900k. AMD just seems to be defining TDP differently.
