Just last night, I was looking for a single-slot graphics card to upgrade an older machine. The options in the market are dire, with the GeForce GT 1030 retaining a triple-digit price some eight years on from its 2017 launch, simply because it remains one of the best choices. We desperately need new low-power GPUs, and it may be that AMD is

The next wave of fresh smartphones aren’t due to arrive for a few more months, but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy a bit of fun in the meantime. Today’s entertainment comes by way of Google, who’s poking fun at Apple over the rumored iPhone 17 Air’s design philosophy.

If you haven’t been keeping track, there are some leaked screenshots,

Amidst all the glare from the spotlight on Samsung’s next gen Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 we’ve seen so far, no one would blame you for missing the Flip FE (Fan Edition).

Sony is looking to chase its top-of-the-line Xperia 1 VI smartphone with a successor, just in time for summer.

While Grand Theft Auto VI has been postponed until May 26 of 2026, Rockstar Games has gifted patient gamers with more than a few screenshots to gloss over in the meantime.

At a time when tariffs and the threat of much higher PC part prices have dominated the discussion, Intel is out here slashing prices on some of its newest desktop processor models based on Arrow Lake.

At this point, AMD is pretty much firing on all cylinders, save

Skype has officially shut down. Microsoft, which owns the platform, confirmed that the video app was discontinued on May 5th, so today’s news is no surprise. We reported Microsoft’s plan to end Skype in March.

Launched in 2003, Skype quickly became a go-to app for free internet calls. Eventually, it amassed hundreds of millions of users

This year has been a bit of a rollercoaster for gamers. On the upside, gaming classics such as Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion have been revitalized and there’s a new console on the way from Nintendo. Gaming is getting more expensive though, with price increases to both software and hardware. Shuhei Yoshida, former President of Sony Interactive

Hot off the heels of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion’s release, Microsoft is reaching back into its vast back catalog to revive another fan favorite from its Xbox 360 heyday. Gears of War is next in line to get the remaster treatment, and it’s also coming to PlayStation gamers for the first time.

GoW: Reloaded will come with a bevy of enhancements,

Way back in September of 2022—over two and a half years ago—an early leak gave us the names of the GTA VI protagonists: a young guy named Jason and his paramour, a woman named Lucia.

Somewhere in the near future, Apple iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max users could potentially have their Face IDs scanned by an invisible, under-display scanner. Apparently Cupertino is testing the feature, but with anything of this nature, there’s still a chance that the technology won’t mature in time to make the iPhone 18’s production schedule

While 1st party gaming controllers from the likes of Microsoft (Xbox) and Sony (PlayStation) often are more than enough for most gamers, there are more versatile third-party options on the market. 8BitDo, well known for its controllers and other gaming accessories (like the recently-launched Retro R8 Mouse N Edition), has its new Ultimate

On paper, the launch of NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 5060 family brought the price of Blackwell to below $500. In practice, the GPU situation is what it is—’frustrating’, if summing it up in a single word—but there is reason to be a bit optimistic.

Roku has been catching heat for its decision to inject ads over HDMI to TVs and other streaming clients when a user presses the pause button, an unpopular (among its users) feature that began rolling out recently.
