4K Gaming Gets A 144Hz FreeSync Boost With Acer’s Nitro XV273K 27″ Monitor
At Berlin’s ongoing IFA event, Acer has a massive portfolio of new product to talk about, but the new model that speaks to me most is the Nitro XV273K, a 4K monitor that joins the small collection of 144Hz panels available. Months ago, both Acer and ASUS launched G-SYNC 4K/144 monitors, which…..
Blue Yeti Scaled Down: Yeti Nano An Attractive Full-Featured $99 Desktop Microphone
Wanting a product because it’s “cute” is probably one of the worst reasons to haul out the credit card, but Blue’s Yeti Nano speaks to me. Like pretty much everyone else on the planet, I’ve been using Blue’s full-sized Yeti for a while (two others on the Techgage team have one also),…..
AMD Launches Radeon Pro V340 Virtualization GPU, Supports Up To 32 Users Per Card
Gamers might be getting anxious to hear more about an NVIDIA RTX-killer AMD might have in the pipe, but for now, it’s the enterprise market that’s enjoying the recent fruits of AMD’s labor. At this month’s SIGGRAPH, I was surprised to learn that AMD’s Radeon Pro Duo was still considered an active product,…..
Shadowgun War Games Brings Competitive CTF Action To Mobile (Next Year)
Since gaming coverage isn’t a big focus of ours, I didn’t stop by too many booths at this week’s Gamescom event to chat up the staff, but I made an exception for MADFINGER Games, makers of some of the best-looking action-filled mobile games on the planet. It all started with Shadowgun, a…..

NVIDIA Promises Big Performance Leap With GeForce Turing, vs. Pascal
After spending a day being briefed on NVIDIA’s newest GeForce family, based on the Turing architecture, NVIDIA decided to let us reveal some interesting information. The kind of information you’re probably really wanting to see: actual gaming performance. Or, at least projected gaming performance. We’ll be taking a deep look at GeForce…..
AMD Releases Radeon Pro WX 8200 Workstation GPU
If you follow AMD’s professional graphics segment, you’ll be well aware of a gap in its product stack, a gap that has existed for quite a while, now. The Polaris-based WX 2100 to the WX 7100 came out quite a while ago, and remained so until the Vega GPUs started to ship.…..

In advance of a widely expected GeForce launch, AMD has decided to spice-up its Radeon offerings, and if you’re in the market for either an RX 570+ or Vega 56+, you’re going to want to pay attention to this promotion. It’s been a while since AMD has offered a game bundle, but…..
Kingston’s Canvas React microSD Cards Tout 80MB/s Write Speeds, 32~256GB Densities
microSD cards don’t seem to get a ton of love, despite the fact that they’re better than ever. Not only can we easily get 256GB cards for our phones or cameras, the prices are pretty reasonable for that perk. You might pay an extra $50 or $100 to gain 64GB inside your…..
Unboxing AMD’s Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX 32-Core Workstation Processor
It’s been no secret that AMD has had plans to bring a 32-core (64-thread) processor to market, but despite the fact that it’s going to be soon happening, I still sit here in awe that this is the reality. Before last summer, 10 cores was the best you’d get from a top-end…..
NVIDIA To Celebrate GeForce Gaming At Next Month’s Gamescom In Cologne
In just under one month’s time, one of the biggest video game shows of the year will take place in Cologne, Germany. I’m of course talking about Gamescom, and concidentally, so is NVIDIA. The company shot us over an email to say that it will be stationed at the show between August…..

If you’ve been intrigued by Destiny 2 since its launch, but haven’t been able to pull the trigger, EVGA has some temptation to throw your way. That assumes you’re in need of a brand-new graphics card, that is, for any model GTX 1060 and higher. The starting point being a GTX 1060…..
AMD, NVIDIA, Oculus, Valve, & Microsoft Create Open Standard Connector For VR – VirtualLink
When you look around for ‘Open Standards’ in the virtual reality space, you will be bewildered by dozens of competing standards, all open, but all setup by different bodies with different interests.

From mice and keyboards, to power supplies, cases, and coolers, Corsair is taking advantage of Amazon’s Prime Day sale that’s just kicking off.

Intel is rounding up its workstation focused Xeon range, with a new entry-level range, the Xeon E series.

Valve Leaks Lifetime Player Numbers, Putting Team Fortress 2 Comfortably On Top
Valve does the community a major solid by offering many statistics to us mere mortals to get an idea on what hardware people are running, and which games people are playing. Unfortunately, getting super-specific information is difficult, because there’s a lot that Valve would like to keep close to its chest. Fortunately…..

GIGABYTE Warning Investors About Pending GPU Price Drops
It’s beginning to look like the end of price-gouged graphics cards is soon upon us, thanks in large part to the fact that the mining craze is dying down. That in turn is tied to the fact that there is a lot of stock left of Pascal-based GeForce GPUs, which isn’t exactly…..
Sony Killed Off Fallout 76’s Cross-play Functionality Before It Could Become A Reality
A couple of weeks ago, I ranted about the latest iteration of Sony’s complete disregard to how important cross-play functionality is for gaming. At that time, it was Fortnite in the crosshair: even though it’s a cross-play title, PS4 gamers found themselves locked to that platform, whereas someone on any other platform…..
der8auer Says Adding CPU Cores Less Important Than Higher Clocks
At Computex earlier this month, PC Gamer met up with famed overclocker Der8auer to talk about anything and everything related to PC performance, including of course, overclocking. He was asked whether or not the trend of higher-clocked parts meant anything for overclocking, and no… that doesn’t seem to be the case. Der8auer (aka:…..
Apple’s iTunes Is The Best Podcatcher – Change My Mind
With podcasts, I go through phases. There have been years when I haven’t listened to a single one, and others where I listen to them almost religiously. Lately, after a bit of a time without any podcasts in my life, I decided to start listening to some again – partially fueled by…..
