If there's one place where tech specs leak, it's Chinese ChipHell. This time they found a GPU-Z screenshot showing the GeForce GTX 760.  According to ChipHell, NVIDIA is launching the product with a GK104 GPU with 1152 Shader processors, the memory bus and raster operations are kept original. If you do the math that would boil up towards 96 TMUs, 32 ROPs, and thus a 256-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface.

Apple has published a game controller framework for iOS 7, and that OS X 10.9 "Mavericks" will also have controller support.

It's unknown if Apple plans to manufacture any of these controllers itself.

Following many months of speculation and even a few leaked screens, Microsoft has finally launched a version of Office for iOS. The suite will be offered as a free download, though before you get too excited there are a couple of caveats: it's optimized for the iPhone only and is limited to Office 365 subscribers. 

Although that certainly thins down the potential user base for the apps, those who have already bought into Microsoft's vision for Office in the cloud will certainly appreciate the addition. Much like the Office Mobile suite that Microsoft preloads on Windows Phone, the iOS version allows users to access, view and edit any file previously saved in Microsoft Word, Excel, and Powerpoint while keeping all the content and formatting intact. The suite is limited to Word, Excel and PowerPoint, and the latter one does not offer edit capabilities other than adding notes. The programs are also quite limited in functionality, and probably the biggest caveat is that you need an Office 365 subscription, which costs $99.99 a year.

It is sometimes amazing to hear things like these, not only is technology evolving at fast paces. Researchers have engineered a new adeno-associated virus that could greatly expand gene therapy to help restore sight to patients with blinding diseases like retinitis pigmentosa and macular degeneration. Over the last six years, several teams of scientists have successfully treated people with a rare inherited eye disease by injecting a virus with a normal gene directly into the retina of an eye with a defective gene. Despite the invasive process, the virus with the normal gene was not capable of reaching all the retinal cells that need fixing.

Intel is going to launch an 8 core CPU series for desktops in 2014 for the enthusiast grade Haswell-E platform. all eyes turn to the 2014 Haswell-E enthusiast grade platform. The world semiconductor leader will be stepping up its game a notch and offer an 8 core desktop CPU for the first time (the biggest leap since the introduction of 6 core CPUs a couple of years back). Perhaps this sudden urge to deliver 8 cores comes with the fact that Haswell will not be succeeded by Broadwell 14nm Tick in 2014.

In yet another leaked slide that surfaced on the web we can now see Core i7 4960XK, 4820K 4960X Ivy Bridge-E and their specs as well. Honestly very very early benchmarks already have shown that the upcoming Intel Core i7-4960 Ivy Bridge-E processors will deliver only 5 percent to 10 percent better performance than their Sandy Bridge-E predecessor. But still. The chart also exposes dual-core Core i3 Haswell processors.

NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 760 is expected to arrive on June 25th, a bit later than the "mid-June" launch date that was previously rumored.
