Can you feel it? The change for PC builders, not very subtle, happening even as I type these words? The clouds have lifted. The sun is shining. The news is good. It is as follows:
Today I bring you something small and wonderful: an update for some of our highest-tier CPU Coolers! The update is somewhat minor, as it involves only the HSFs in the top three tiers of our main chart. But the CPUs in those tiers will appreciate their ‘cool’ new allies…
At last! All modern GPUs are available for purchase, new, for MSRP. No more crying as you pay 2x or 3x the recommended price for a card. No more heartbreak as you buy a used card that has been sitting in a crypto farm for 2 years. No more sad checking on crypto prices, hoping […]
Did you feel that? Was it an earthquake? An avalanche? No, nVidia just decided to throw all caution to the wind and create the world’s most powerful consumer GPU, and that GPU is stomping! The new RTX 3090 Ti is an absolute monster that smashes all the metrics and establishes itself as the new king […]
Ever since Intel won every race in the universe with the launch of Sandy Bridge back in 2011, they have been slacking. AMD’s tortoise needed six long years, but it overtook the sleeping Intel hare in 2017, leaving behind a lot of room for jokes at Intel’s expense. But Intel, like all other large tech […]
GPU prices started going up (roughly) in March of 2020 when all hardware went up in price or went out-of-stock. It happened slowly at first, then faster and faster, until widespread unavailability became the norm! During the worst of the worst, it was so bad that you could not buy most graphics cards, no matter […]
How have you been? Better, I hope. Things have not been well for the last 1.5 years, due to… the circumstances being what they are. But at long last, we can see a ray of hope!
Intel recently launched its Rocket Lake CPUs, which include the i9-11900K, the i7-11700K, and the i5-11600K. There are a tonne of reviews out there, including some highly entertaining videos which should not be missed. What follows is our take on this launch, including the changes it will be bringing to the Logical Increments build chart […]
The PC buyers have been living in the dry desert of GPU-lessness for 5 months now, and a few days ago, nVidia promised that relief is coming with the RTX 3060. But let us get the usual things out of the way: $330, great performance for the price, runs cool. It is a modern nVidia […]
As if a deadly pandemic, rising sea levels, AND a botched Cyberpunk 2077 launch are not enough, today’s gaming-PC buyers are faced with an additional unpleasant situation: Product unavailability! When will it end?! Oh, and… Greetings.
