We don’t know if there’s something in the water that display makers are drinking, but whatever the case, we like what they’re doing lately. What are they doing, exactly? They’re giving away free secondary products when you purchase the main one. The latest to adopt this trend is Sony, which is dangling a free 55-inch or 50-inch TV when you

Walmart recently made a splash in the streaming segment with the surprisingly quiet launch of its Onn 4K Plus streaming device, which costs less than $30 while offering an impressive assortment of specifications and features. Just how powerful is it, though? Powerful enough to hang with the competition, according to a fresh set of benchmarks

Launch day for the Nintendo Switch 2 is rapidly approaching with less than two weeks to go. Unfortunately, many fans have been left out in the cold after a disastrous preorder window. If that happens to be you, and FOMO is starting to kick in hard, then we’ve got some advice to give you the best chance at scoring a Switch 2 on day one.

NVIDIA is planning to ship a cut-down version of its RTX Pro 6000 server-class graphics card with key specification downgrades to China, in order to sidestep U.S.-imposed artificial intelligence (AI) chip export restrictions, according to multiple sources who spoke with Reuters on the matter. It’s essentially the same strategy NVIDIA has taken

Amazon is serving up some sweet deals on Apple’s iPad lineup, as well as some MacBook models. Some of the discounts are so steep that these devices are now going for all-time low prices. Suffice to say, if you’ve been contemplating an iPad upgrade (or jumping over to Apple’s ecosystem for the first time), now is a great time to pounce.

We’ll

If you’ve been keeping up with Nintendo Switch 2 news, you’ve probably already seen that the Joy-Con 2 controllers can be used like mice thanks to optical sensors on the inside edge, where they connect to the Switch 2 console. This is an awesome feature and we’re glad to see it, but apparently, Switch 2 gamers will also be able to use a USB

Heads up, if you own a GeForce RTX 5060 series graphics card, there is a new firmware update available to “ensure compatibility with certain motherboard SBIOSes.” Note that this is not something you’re bound to come across through the NVIDIA App, which can automatically check for and fetch updated GPU driver packages. This requires flashing

Having trouble checking your feed on the social media platform X this morning? You are not alone. X, formerly known as Twitter, is suffering a major outage that arose from an incident on Thursday and is affecting access to the site today, May 24, 2025. We tried to access the site this morning and were not able to. The root cause is a reportedly

NVIDIA has been heavily impacted by US export control restrictions, which are part of the measures aimed at limiting China’s access to key AI technologies and innovation designed here in the US. This has not gone down well with Jensen Huang, NVIDIA’s CEO, who has described the export control policy as a complete failure.

The latest generation of mainstream GPUs has arrived, and as has been the case for several generations now, the most affordable parts only have 8GB of memory onboard. This has caused some consternation among portions of the gaming public who feel that 8GB of video RAM is simply not enough in 2025. This point of view is somewhat elitist and

Diablo IV fans might still be sinking their teeth into everything season eight has to offer, but Blizzard is already prepping for season nine. Features of the upcoming season, named Sins of the Horadrim, will be entering the Public Test Realm starting next week. Season nine will bring a lot of new goodies, alongside several changes as the

After enjoying the success of its broad closed-loop cooling (CLC) patent for around 15 years, which expired on May 6, Asetek sent its engineers to the drawing board to come up with a new design to license to partners. In good Danish fashion, the new CLC design is called Ingrid, and its features are quite promising.

First, Asetek claims

In a bold (unofficial) declaration, Chinese smartphone giant Xiaomi and semiconductor designer ARM have thrown down the gauntlet against Apple’s formidable A-series processors with the upcoming Xring O1 processor. With the Xring O1, Xiaomi promises top-tier performance at a potentially more accessible price point, marking a significant landmark

In April, President Trump announced that smartphones and a host of other electronic devices would be excluded from the tariff dispute between the US and China, bringing some temporary relief to the tech industry. Apple, however, may be entangled in a web of new tariffs. Following Apple’s decision and subsequent announcement to build a factory

The DIY PC market is in a tough spot. If we disregard older, previous-gen graphics cards for a moment, the only company currently selling anything approaching a modern entry-level GPU is Intel, and those cards are nearly impossible to find for anything approaching MSRP. Quality motherboards for under $100 barely exist, and those that do are

Apple has some smart glasses coming, after dabbling in the augmented reality space, according to the folks at Bloomberg. The question of how it will fare against Meta and its own Ray-Ban smart glasses will be interesting to witness in this new field. Furthermore, Apple’s own complicated history with its Vision Pro may leave some early adopters

Microsoft is rolling out an exciting wave of updates to its core Windows 11 applications – Paint, Snipping Tool, and Notepad – available now for Windows Insiders in the Canary and Dev channels using Copilot+ PCs. These enhancements, focusing on generative AI (naturally) and streamlined workflows, promise to bring greater creativity and efficiency

First and foremost, we want to thank past and present military members for their service. And as Memorial Day comes into view, we want to acknowledge those who gave the ultimate sacrifice, and offer our deepest sympathies to surviving family members. There’s no non-awkward way to pivot into a deals roundup ahead of Memorial Day, so we want

Astronomers have for the first time observed a violent cosmic collision dubbed the “cosmic joust.” This dramatic encounter involving two galaxies 11 billion light years away, reveals how one galaxy effectively “spears” its opponent with a beam of radiation from a powerful quasar, severely hindering the latter’s ability to birth new stars.

Some boss battles are just too daunting, which the Federal Trade Commission has discovered in its ongoing effort to defeat Microsoft’s $69 billion takeover of Activision-Blizzard. Or more accurately, it was ongoing. In what can be likened to the legal version of rage-quitting, the FTC dropped its case against Microsoft, saying that it was
