Intel has already established that the graphics parts of Panther Lake are using the Xe3 architecture, but that they will be branded as part of the Arc B-series. The given rationale is that the first-generation Xe3 graphics products utilizing the “Xe3-LPG” architecture will be something more like an evolution of the Xe2 architecture used in

During the recent Xbox Partner Preview, Microsoft announced several upcoming Xbox and PC games, but also highlighted that the Xbox Full Screen Experience (FSE) would be rolling out to all PC gaming handhelds and eventually expanding to other Windows 11 PCs through the Windows Insider Program.

If you’ve been paying attention, though, you

Remember when getting into virtual reality was cost prohibitive? Yeah, neither do we at this point. VR has outlasted ‘passing fad’ status and appears here to stay—even Valve is getting in on the action with its upcoming Steam Frame headset (alongside other hardware, including another Steam Machine). Meanwhile, there are a affordable options,

With the arrival of Google’s Nano Banana Pro (officially the Gemini 3 Pro Image model) the AI image generation landscape has once again moved forward into deeper usefulness and hyper-realism. Along with the creative power it now gives users, Nano Banana Pro brings up more debates over digital authenticity and image manipulation, especially

If a price hike is a sickness, than Black Friday is the cure. Black Friday deals on PlayStation 5 consoles are now in effect, providing a salve against recent price adjustments made by Sony. And yes, it’s easy to be soured by a so-called deal on items that recently went up in price, but the Black Friday discounts bring PS5 console costs to

After eons of Android users relying on cumbersome cloud links or email attachments to share content with iPhones, Google dropped a bombshell yesterday that its Quick Share function can now directly communicate with Apple’s proprietary AirDrop feature, forever ending the agonizing cross-platform file sharing wall.

For many, this update is

Building a PC is not all that difficult, but assembling a totally silent (or even near silent) rig? That takes a little more research and finesse. It can also require making compromises, but to ensure that the power supply unit (PSU) is not one of them, Seasonic confirmed it’s in the process of designing a fanless and ultra-efficient 1,000W

AMD’s next CPU launch is going to be the Gorgon Point family. Don’t wet yourself in excitement; they’re primarily refreshed Strix Point silicon. At least, that’s been the gist of all the leaks and rumors so far, but now we have yet another set of leaks that all but confirm the truth. New results found in the SiSoft Sandra database as well

Security researchers at Threat Fabric have discovered new malware targeting Android devices, which is still “in a development or limited testing phase.” However, even in its current form it’s still incredibly potent, enabling attackers to take complete control of a victim’s device including obtaining access to encrypted messages.

Intel’s next truly interesting processor release—sorry, Arrow Lake Refresh—is going to be the launch of its Panther Lake mobile processors. As it turns out, we now know exactly when that’s happening: not Q4 ’25 as rumored, but indeed Q1 ’26, at the Consumer Electronics Show in lovely Las Vegas. We know that because Intel itself said so. In

New navigation features are beginning to roll out to Google Maps that are coming just in time as millions of people hit the road for holiday travel. The company says that these new features are designed to help users save time and be better prepared by providing useful information about EV charging stations and local trips.

One of the pain

The days of desperately scrolling through fan wikis and/or skimming episode summaries to remember who shot whom in the Season 2 finale could very well be coming to an end. Amazon Prime Video has unveiled a new feature called Video Recaps that leverages AI to produce cinematic, full-fledged video recaps for television series. This tool tacks

We don’t know who still needs to hear this, but don’t ever pay full price for a set of earbuds or headphones (or speakers, for that matter). Not even if it’s a brand new time that just came out because it’s only a matter of time before the MSRP becomes an afterthought. Need proof? Apple’s newfangled AirPods Pro 3 with Live Translation and

A tech entrepreneur’s profound nostalgia for the golden age 8-bit arcade gaming has resulted in a highly personalized Rolls-Royce Black Badge Ghost Gamer commission. Unveiled as the marque’s first (only?) vehicle dedicated entirely to vintage video game culture, this one-of-one creation is not your usual gold-plated, diamond-crusted creation;

Continuing our coverage of is-it-an-alien-spacecraft Comet 3I/ATLAS, an armada of space missions (including Hubble, JWST, plus assets orbiting and roving on Mars) have captured the comet’s fleeting flyby of Mars before it disappears forever. And no, it’s not extraterrestrial: the icy wanderer was likely ejected from its home star’s orbit millions

For a while there (and still, in some cases), finding a modern generation graphics card at MSRP is considered deal. Forget that noise, though, because over the last couple of months, we’ve seen GPU pricing finally stabilize to the point where popular models can be had for less than MSRP. And so it goes with the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, and this

NVIDIA is pushing out an out-of-band GPU driver update to resolve an issue introduced with Microsoft’s October 2025 update for Windows 11 (KB5066835). According to NVIDIA, the Windows 11 update can hamper performance in some unspecified games, even though it’s not listed by Microsoft as one of the known issues. Despite Microsoft being silent

NVIDIA is making a habit of posting record earnings each quarter, and that trend continued into Q3 with the company reporting $57 billion in revenue. That’s a giant 25% uptick from its previous quarter, and an even bigger 66% spike from the same three-month period a year ago, driven in large part by a big surge in Blackwell sales.

Silverstone just launched the FLP02, a new retro-inspired PC case design that harkens back to the 80s and 90s. The FLP02 has a standard tower configuration in contrast to the older lay-flat Silverstone FLP01. The FLP02 has more era-appropriate features too, like a functional lock for the power/reset buttons and a Turbo button. While classic

When the original ASUS ROG Ally handhelds came out, they were followed by a long series of patches that radically improved both the software and hardware, adding new features, fixing bugs, and even directly improving the performance and efficiency of the devices thanks to power management tweaks and driver updates.
