Own Goal: Psyonix To Kill Linux & macOS Support For Rocket League
There are many reasons to love Rocket League, but for PC gamers not using Windows, the game’s support of macOS and Linux has been one of the biggest ones. Most Rocket League history is filled with great vibes, because up to a point, it seemed like it was a series that couldn’t…..
AMD Releases Next Mid-range Navi: Radeon RX 5600 XT
AMD has today released a new addition to its Radeon Navi lineup: RX 5600 XT. This mid-range offering slots in at $289 for the version we tested (Sapphire Pulse), which until the other day was a price point that settled itself a fair distance away from NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 2060. As usual,…..
Microsoft’s Edge Browser Is Well Worth Giving Another Shot
When Microsoft released its Edge web browser alongside Windows 10 way back in 2015, I admit that there wasn’t even a single point in between then and the past week where I thought favorably of it. It’s not that I didn’t want to. Like many, I always used Edge as a secondary…..
AMD Rumored To Release ‘Big Navi’ At Computex
Over the weekend, we reported on the fact that AMD’s Lisa Su confirmed multiple times that “Big Navi” would be released in 2020. Today, leaker website VideoCardz is reporting on more specific information: Big Navi at Computex, and something else from NVIDIA before then. We were told NVIDIA will launch a new…..

As we’re working through more benchmarks to post our full look at NVIDIA’s Quadro RTX 6000 graphics card, we’re reminded that we forgot to talk about PNY’s recent release of passively-cooled Quadro RTX graphics cards – Quadro SKUs without video connectors. That’s not something we see everyday! Going all-in with passive cooling…..
ASUS Releases Bezel-free Monitor Kit, Currently Available For $110 On Amazon
Two CESes ago, ASUS had an interesting product being shown off in its suite that caught many off-guard: a bezel-free monitor kit. In effect, it was a hunk of plastic that slipped in between two monitors in order to combine them; or, in other words: give the illusion that the bezel isn’t…..
AMD Expected To Release ‘Big Navi’ Radeon In 2020
AMD announced its next mid-range GPU offering at CES, called Radeon 5600 XT. This card follows-up on another mid-range release from December, of the Radeon 5500 XT.

Our Experiences With 360Hz Gaming At CES
At CES a couple of weeks ago, NVIDIA unveiled some forthcoming 360Hz G-SYNC monitors, allowing press who visited its suite at the Wynn to go hands-on with them. Before the event, I felt like the difference between 240Hz and 360Hz would be hard to spot, but fortunately for me, NVIDIA had a…..

Code In Final Fantasy VII Remake Demo Hints At Future PC Release

More than ever, it feels like the industry is accelerating towards treating the PC less as a side thing, and more of…..
OTOY To Preview Octane X For macOS With Intel & Radeon GPU Support Early This Year
Last spring, we wrote about OTOY’s plans for reintroducing native hardware support in OctaneRender for macOS, something that implies support for AMD’s Radeon discrete GPUs, Intel’s integrated GPUs, as well as Apple’s Metal API. Currently, Octane users on Mac need to be glued to an older version of the operating system to retain the CUDA support that’s critical…..
Intel’s Core i9-10900K Rumored To Bring 25% More Cores, 5.2GHz Peak Clock Speed
Intel launched its 9th-gen Core i9-9900K in late 2018, so doesn’t it feel like we’re just about due for a replacement? Months ago, Intel delivered to market a 5GHz all-core Turbo Core i9-9900KS, but with the same number of cores as its predecessor, performance gains were pretty modest all-around. That did little to…..
EVGA Releases High-end SR-3 DARK Motherboard For Pairing With Intel’s 28-core Xeon W-3175X
When AMD launched its latest Ryzen Threadripper series last month, we saw the introduction of a wide-range of supported motherboards that were not inexpensive. In fact, it wasn’t until we published our review that we even realized that the TRX40 board we tested with retailed for $849. Perhaps this is a new…..

What’s On Offer? Black Friday 2019
It’s that time of year again when retail giants battle it out for your hard-earned cash. It’s Black Friday, and then Cyber Monday, and the build-up the week before, and after, but when Christmas starts in July, it all blurs together really. In any case, we’ve been checking out some deals around…..
Blender 2.81 Releases With NVIDIA RTX And Intel Open Image Denoise Support
It’s hard to believe that after the super-long wait for Blender 2.80 to arrive, that version has become old hat, as 2.81 has just been released. As usual, we’ll work to integrate 2.81 into our suite as quickly as possible, so we can see how performance scales between versions. On the topic…..

For about as long as video game emulation has existed, there have been fan hacks. Some of these hacks might be as simple as translating one language to another, while others could be more advanced, adjusting game rules and behavior. Then there are hacks that are more like entirely new games, such…..
Steam Beta Reveals Valve Is Planning To Expand To Cloud Gaming
When we started the year, we’re not sure anyone outside of Valve realized just how many quality updates would be hitting the Steam client throughout the year. Part of the sudden insurgence of new features could be due to the intense competition that’s come out of the woodwork – but whatever the…..

Qualcomm Expects 200 Million 5G Phones To Be Sold In 2020
Qualcomm believes that 2020 is going to be a massive year for 5G, and based on all we know about how the technologies have rolled out so far, it seems safe enough to assume that’s correct. But Qualcomm is putting some real numbers down: it expects that 200 million 5G smartphones will…..
