    Impact of Windows updates on Geekbench 6

    Hmm...bit involved and probably needs a controller. Not sure if mouse will work in Xbox Fullscreen Experience mode. Will try it when I can get the chance to do so.

    Pre-Arrow Lake Xe iGPUs abandoned by Intel

    It matters for those wanting to use their iGPUs for indie games or even lighter AAA games that can easily run on an iGPU etc. So people with something like Ryzen 3200G, 5300G, 6600H etc. are better off than someone who was unfortunate enough to get a pre-built i5-14400 for their kid. If I had...

    Pre-Arrow Lake Xe iGPUs abandoned by Intel

    https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000101986/graphics.html Most concerning impact? NO MORE future games support! Maybe they need to opensource the driver so the community can take over. This new CEO is being hopelessly reckless as some had feared. But then, he's too old...

    Smoking hot deal! 32gb DDR5 for only $400! /s

    I wonder if more russians are falling out of windows now so their RAM can be "repurposed" :P

    Which DOS games do you remember playing in the 90s?

    I suppose tweaking them to maximize available conventional memory could be construed as a challenging game :)

    Nothing special but the guy is kinda funny. And the outro IS funny.

    level1tech watching three ASROCK AM5 mobos like a hawk!

    https://forum.level1techs.com/t/attempting-to-troubleshoot-the-asrock-motherboards-of-death/241539/27 Interesting post about the ground current load that RDNA4 places on the mobo power connector. And MSI putting an 8 pin PCIe connector directly on the mobo is also curious.

    Get your new PC now before you get priced out of the game

    Then wouldn't the DIMM assemblers go out of business in the near future? Especially since the AI data centers are paying with "free" invisible money they don't have and the DIMM assemblers aren't going to be able to secure such huge loans from banks to compete with the AI data centers for the...

    Get your new PC now before you get priced out of the game

    That's kinda proof that Newegg has huge existing stock and releasing it at artificial "discounted price" dozens or hundreds of units a time once the sales slow down. Kind of what they did with GPUs too. No way they got a new shipment from G.Skill because if the AI demand is so high, G.Skill...

    New Mozilla CEO Says Firefox Will Evolve into a “Modern AI Browser” with AI Features That Can Be Turned On or Off by the User

    I'm sure that their developers are much more pragmatically inclined than M$ ones. Microsoft seems to have adopted a strategy of "show me how you can put AI into something and you get a dog biscuit as a reward" and then their developers get to work, wagging their tails and salivating at the...

    New Mozilla CEO Says Firefox Will Evolve into a “Modern AI Browser” with AI Features That Can Be Turned On or Off by the User

    As long as they make the AI features optional, I'm fine with them trying to evolve their browser. I don't mind their reading mode or few features that are missing in Chrome or Edge (save all open tabs as bookmarks or take a screenshot of the whole page, preserving the formatting). I'm sure there...
