Nevermind that there currently aren’t any systems with 16-channel

2.3 million user records from the WIRED database have leaked and the hackers who did it claim that millions of other records from other Condé Nast-owned publications (like The New Yorker, Vanity Fair, and more) will also be released soon. Analysis of the leak from Infostealers seems to verify that the records are legitimate and worse yet,

For multiple generations, Samsung has used a mix of Qualcomm Snapdragon and its own Exynos SoCs in its Galaxy devices, depending on the region or price/performance target, but rumors are swirling that suggest Samsung plans to shift completely to in-house silicon by 2028.

Samsung keeps adding in-house silicon blocks. Makes it even harder

Ayaneo Pocket Vert is here, and if you hop on the bandwagon soon enough, you can get it for as low as $269 USD for the 8GB RAM + 128GB storage configuration, or $349 for the top-end 12GB RAM + 256GB storage config (or $369 if you want it in red).

Word on the web is that graphics card pricing is about to go up as add-in board (AIB) partners for both AMD and NVIDIA look to pass along the cost of rising DRAM prices. If the reports are true, we’ll start to see higher-priced GPUs next month for AMD and February for NVIDIA, followed by more price increases as 2026 stretches its legs. That’s

Less than a year into its mission, NASA’s SPHEREx has already completed its first full survey of the sky, producing a near-infrared map that captures the entire cosmos in a staggering 102 colors. Words can’t really convey the true splendor of the achievement, though, so have a look for yourself at the panoramic video NASA released.

Old school PC geeks may remember a time when AMD and Intel were in a race to 1GHz and beyond, back before multiple cores, hybrid designs, and mountains of stacked cache took center stage. Those days may be gone forever, but now we have monitor makers trying to one-up each other with increasingly fast speeds, and HKC is touting a gaming monitor

Hold on a second, Samsung designers were allowed to actually design something? Ahead of the upcoming CES 2026, the South Korean company has unveiled not just a soundbar, but some very fresh-looking Wi-Fi speakers that combine artistic design and high-fidelity performance (on paper anyway).

Undoubtedly the eye-catcher during

While you’re planning your New Year’s resolutions, add-in board (AIB) partners for both AMD and NVIDIA are getting ready to ring in 2026 with a round of price increases, followed by more price hikes as the year goes on, according to multiple reports. The culprit, as you can probably guess, is the rising cost of DRAM, which has already impacted

Ever dreamt of an iPhone that transforms into an iPad? If you have, the iPhone Fold renders leaked by Jon Prosser, aka YouTube’s fpt., will be of interest. Jon uploaded a video showcasing the some official-looking renders of the upcoming device, which when folded, appears similar to a standard 5.5-inch iPhone with 9 millimeters of thickness.

CES 2026 will be the launching pad for lots of new hardware, including a new wave of enhanced Mini LED TVs, which manufacturers are branding in a variety of ways. Some companies will call them “true color TVs”, while others are being more literal — like Hisense — and calling out RGB Mini LED technology specifically, or using the Micro RGB

It’s been quite a year. We came into it struggling with a massive GPU shortage, and we’re coming out of it with a brutal memory shortfall. Microsoft largely lost the plot with both Windows and Xbox, and the President of the United States was at the center of one of the most notorious vaporware announcements of all time.

It wasn’t all bad,

ASUS is evidently so excited about its new ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM Gen 3 gaming monitor that it’s not waiting around for the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas for its big unveiling. What has ASUS so geeked about the Gen 3 panel is a new BlackShield film that, according to the company, is a “game-changer for contrast connoisseurs.”

Ahead of CES 2026, Sapphire is showing off a pair of “PhantomLink” (its equivalent to ASUS’ BTF) AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT GPUs and motherboards. Both will come in white or black colorways and are (for now) China-exclusives.

This launch from Sapphire shows a continued push from AIB GPU partners and motherboard manufacturers to minimize cable

For Windows’ BitLocker drive encryption, performance has been a long-standing pain point, especially as high-speed NVMe drives have become more dominant in the market. Fortunately, Microsoft has taken note and will soon be introducing hardware-accelerated BitLocker drive encryption and decryption on supported hardware, with future updates

The long-awaited “double X3D” CPU, which AMD once denied would ever happen, has finally confirmed its existence with new leaks over at Geekbench and Passmark. We’ll cut to the chase: neither benchmark result is particularly interesting, as both show performance nearly identical to the extant Ryzen 9 9950X3D in these specific benchmarks. However,

Over on X, Kepler_L2, one of the more trusted leakers in the industry, claims that AMD’s next-generation RDNA 5 graphics architecture is slated for a mid-2027 release date, with chips being built on TSMC’s N3P process. This claim emerged as a direct response to a quote tweet where another leaker, Jukan05, claimed AMD RDNA 5 would be made on

Santa is back at the North Pole kicking back and relaxing before getting started on next year’s batch of gifts. A year is a long time to wait if you didn’t get what you hoping for, but the good news is you can take matters into your own hands with several deals that are still in effect the day after Christmas. That includes a $100 on selection

LG is rolling out a brand new UltraGear evo (stylized with a lowercase ‘e’), which it will show off in more detail at the Consumer Electronics Shows (CES) in Las Vegas early next month.
