GTA 6 Anticipation Builds As Latest Leak Reveals A Surprise Character

Grand Theft Auto is absolutely not a series for children.

AMD Zen 5c Comes Into View With Codename Prometheus But What Is It Exactly?

As PC hardware enthusiasts, we talk about code names a lot. Stuff like “Raptor Lake” and “Bergamo” are technically internal names that aren’t really supposed to be used in an official context. Intel, for example, would prefer that we say “13th-Generation Intel Core Processor” and AMD would like to read “AMD EPYC 9704-series Processors”. There
