GTA5 was mostly a benchmarking tool for me. I tried to get into it but got maybe a third of the way through before I finally gave up. Best times were just cruising, listening to music and watching the sunrise/sunsets. That being said, the only way I'll end up with this is if it gets bundled with...

I've got a 2024 TCL, same here at 5,000 nits. Occasionally too bright, but there's still a handful of things where the content creator decided to make things just too d**n dark. I can't imagine anything this bright, though.

AMD is expanding its Ryzen PRO family of processors with the launch of six new Zen 5-based models designed for professional use. Ranging from 6 to 16 cores, there’s a little bit of everything for everyone, but these CPUs are not intended for gaming and instead for AI or productivity, but that...

TCL is pushing past the barriers of current HDR specifications with its latest round of Mini LED TVs, which have been seen hitting epic brightness levels. Do you have a display capable of 1,000 nits? Well, not even close to this. How about 1,500, or even 2,000, still not even in the parking lot...

Work is already underway on Stellar Blade 2, and its developers have indicated the sequel will be self-published. Sony Interactive Entertainment published the first Stellar Blade game, and developer Shift Up has, for now, somehow managed to escape assimilation by the console maker, which often...

It appears that AMD is prepping a new entry-level graphics card in the form of the Radeon RX 9050 using the same Navi 44 die as its RX 9060 XT. It’s been said that nature abhors a vacuum, and in the absence of any new budget-oriented graphics cards, that market is ripe for a new […] See full...

GIGABYTE and Microsoft are offering a promotion in which those who purchase a qualifying OLED monitor get a free 3-month subscription. It’s a win-win for those looking to upgrade to a new OLED display while enjoying playing some free games on it to boot. Unlike many hardware promotions that...

PlayStation 4 owners have received an email from Sony telling them to get ready for the launch of GTA VI by purchasing a PlayStation 5. Grand Theft Auto VI isn’t expected for a little over six months on November 19, but that isn’t stopping Sony from putting its hopes on the game for more console...

Yep, saw it too a few days ago, might be here for us plebs by around 2030+.

Valve has revealed new ordering requirements for the Steam Controller following last week’s launch, when it sold out in 30 minutes. Selling out of a product is normally a good thing, but when said product becomes available on marketplace commerce sites for roughly double or triple the price...

A New Report Reveals That Motherboard Sales Have Plummeted amid Chip Shortages and the Absence of New Consumer GPU Releases. It’s a “water is wet” moment for those who understand the implications of having memory and storage costs double or triple, but others not involved in building their own...

I count myself lucky and bit the bullet in upgrading one of my setups to DDR5/AM5 last spring through some careful shopping which had enough discounts involved to basically be MSRP or lower for nearly all parts. I still ended up dropping a lot of dough for everything but it was before things...

It’s been ten years since the launch of the GTX 10-series line of NVIDIA graphics cards, which saw the release of the famous GTX 1080 Ti. Considered by many to be the GOAT (although the GTX 980 Ti deserves honorable mention), the GTX 1080 Ti brought powerful rasterized performance to a new level...

It’s been discovered that Google Chrome may be consuming more than just system memory, as a 4 GB AI model was found downloaded to a user’s PC. It seems that we can never have enough AI in our lives these days, and Google wants to ensure that everyone who can run it locally has it […] See full...

I'm certainly hoping they do. It's not a product I have any interest in but I'm so sick of their crap.
