In this hardware news recap, we have a heavy week with a mix of world news intersecting computer hardware, including US arrests of AI chip smugglers, AMD reporting an impact from export controls, potential silicon tariffs, and then more hardware-centric news. This, sadly, includes Anandtech fully shutting down (including archived articles). There's also a new AMD RX 9060 non-XT and rumors of a dual-X3D AMD CPU. And Crocs.
