A good upgrade for anyone on an older graphics card and with plenty of overclocking potential.

If 2024 ended up being a strong and busy year for television, then 2025 is looking even bigger. TV productions were quicker to rebound following the 2023 writers’ and actors’ strikes than movies, just by nature of production. And even with the downtick (or the occasional interrupted story), there were around 500 adult original scripted...

'Think twice' is still good advice.

AOKZOE has just revealed the A1X, the latest handheld gaming PC to utilize the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. It also comes with an 8-inch VRR display and a huge 72.7Wh battery for extended play sessions. On paper, the AOKZOE A1X will be among the best handheld gaming PCs, especially if it can make the most of the AMD Ryzen AI chip powering it, just like the Ayaneo 3. While the handheld market is becoming oversaturated, there is still space for powerful devices to stand out, and AOKZOE will be hoping th...

Xbox head Phil Spencer has reiterated Microsoft will support Switch 2, and dubbed Nintendo a "great partner".

xAI has launched a new interface for its Grok chatbot that could be compared to ChatGPT's Canvas. The Elon Musk-helmed AI company has introduced the first version of Studio, which can generate documents, code and even browser games on a separate window. If you ask Grok to write an essay for you, for instance, you'll find text formatting buttons (Bold, Italics and Underline) at the top of the interface. You'll also find a a drop-down menu with header options and buttons to create bullet and numbe...

The belt tightens.

Apple has seemingly changed the marketing strategy for the iPhone 16 lineup and other products amid the delay in releasing key Apple Intelligence features. The global marketing campaign for the ‌iPhone 16‌ and iPhone 16 Pro centered around the tagline "Hello, ‌Apple Intelligence‌." The company now seems to have universally changed this to "Built for ‌Apple Intelligence‌," often in a smaller font. The alteration seems to be a subtle acknowledgment that ‌Apple Intelligence‌ isn't ready, moving emp...

Apple, along with other tech companies, relies on the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) program to identify and track security flaws in its software. This critical cybersecurity resource now faces an uncertain future, after federal funding was today abruptly cut off. In response to the crisis, a coalition of longtime CVE Board members announced today the formation of the CVE Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to ensuring the continued operation of the vulnerability identifi...

Now that Nvidia has lifted the lid on its latest sub-$500 gaming GPU, I’ve had the chance to run some Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti benchmarks in the latest games, and some of the results are startling. The new GPU doesn’t just beat its predecessor, the RTX 4060 Ti, but in some games it even significantly outperforms the 5070. What’s its secret? That’ll be its extra 4GB of GDDR7 VRAM. I’ll be writing a full RTX 5060 Ti review in the very near future, but in the meantime, I thought it was worth shar...

Send in the knowns. Questions, questions, questions. Since the Switch 2 Direct finally doused us with molten info and elicited the hottest of takes from us all, there's been a steady stream of questions trickling in from all Nintendo fans. Pinning Nintendo down on specifics in interviews and through other official channels has been tough as the company trundles onwards with its messaging machine. We've had tidbits suddenly appear on FAQ webpages and other nuggets crop up elsewhere, but there's s...

Matt Murdock has many problems in Daredevil: Born Again — and a complete lack of chemistry with his canon girlfriend is absolutely up there. When I first started the show, I was tentatively interested in Heather Glenn, who meets Matt during a blind date set up by Matt’s current law partner. They had some cute...

US shoppers might want to wait (or weep), but at least UK shoppers can rejoice a little.

Don't let its size deceive you.

Tinkatink arrives in Pokémon Go as part of April 2025’s “Pokémon Horizons: The Series Celebration” event. The Paldea fairy- and steel-type can evolve into Tinkatuff and Tinkaton with enough Candy available. Unlike recent new Pokémon such as Gossifleur and Nickit, Tinkatink is not available in the wild on its debut — but there is one...

"I’m really a big believer in what Nintendo means for this industry". Microsoft's Phil Spencer has once again reiterated his support for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 in a new interview with Variety (thanks, VGC). When asked whether Xbox has any specific projects in mind for the Switch 2, Spencer was understandably hesitant to provide concrete details, but expressed a passionate commitment to supporting Nintendo's upcoming console.

You've got to get SAD!

One of Razer's only standalone gaming mice, the Viper Ultimate, is currently $30 cheaper right now at Woot, with the option to save a further $10 if you've never used the retailer before. We're yet to see iterations of the Viper Ultimate design, unlike the V2 and V3 models of designs like its Deathadder and Viper mice, but this ambidextrous gaming mouse is still a heavy hitter today, even though it's been out for quite a while. There is no shortage of Razer options if you're looking for the best...

Late last December, 11 bit Studios, the Polish developer of This War of Mine and the Frostpunk series, announced it had cancelled a long-in-development console-focused game known as Project 8. This had been in development since 2018 and had cost the studio nearly £10m. Until now, though, all we've known about Project 8 was that it was a "narrative-driven, story-rich game" - CEO Przemys&lstrokaw Marsza&lstrok used those words when referencing the game's genre, which he said held stronger market a...

Anthropic, makers of the Claude AI chatbot, are close to launching a new voice assistant to rival OpenAI's similar option for interacting with ChatGPT, according to Bloomberg. Unless plans change, the new "voice mode" feature could be released as soon as this month – nearly a year after OpenAI began rolling out its own equivalent to users. The feature, which will be available in the Claude iOS app and likely elsehwhere, reportedly includes three voices named Airy, Mellow, and British-accented Bu...

Alongside pre-orders in Canada. As hype surrounding the upcoming Switch 2 was just about to reach its peak after the exceptional Direct presentation from Nintendo, the company announced that it would be delaying pre-orders in the US in light of the global tariffs from The Trump Administration. Similarly, pre-orders in Canada were also delayed, with Nintendo stating that it wished to align with its plans in the US.

A new Path of Exile 2 update today is making more sweeping changes to the ARPG’s new season. The first major overhaul since its early-access launch, PoE 2 Dawn of the Hunt was met with a pretty tepid response from players, cited as too slow, grindy, and unrewarding. Developer Grinding Gear Games has been quick to roll out many changes, however, and its latest patch includes some of the most welcome additions yet. Along with the promised ascendancy respec feature, these PoE 2 patch notes include ...

2025 hasn't started off well for League of Legends. While on paper the rotating thematic seasons look and sound amazing, Riot has struggled to get its new system off of the ground. Between issues with battle pass rewards, the divisive gacha-esque Sanctum and its Exalted cosmetics, and, of course, the infamous Hextech Chest controversy, the MOBA is in a bit of an odd place. The second round of Noxus-themed battle pass skins proved particularly contentious, too, with Alistar's black and red look g...

Developers InnerSloth and Schell Games have announced the release date of Among Us 3D on PC.

In Minecraft, even the smallest of changes can have a lasting impact. Whether it’s a new redstone system that upends the mechanics, or a rework to the humble pig, each time I boot up my main server I’m met with something entirely new to experiment with. Today is no different, as Mojang introduces a new Minecraft update that completely changes how leashes work - and offers big creative opportunities.

Niantic has made 68 employees redundant as part of its company restructuring process following the sale of its gaming portfolio to Monopoly Go maker Scopely - a deal worth $3.5bn.

According to industry analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the device will include a dual-lens rear camera along with front-facing cameras usable in both folded and unfolded states, ensuring comprehensive camera functionality in any con...

FromSoftware, in their eternal quest to avoid giving us the damn moon already, have released a new character trailer for Elden Ring: Nightreign. This time, it's the Raider - a decidedly unsubtle chap wielding a large stone lollipop and fond of devastating uppercuts, headbutting knights, and problem drinking. He also has the ability to summon walls. One is used in the trailer as an archery platform slash plunging attack allower. Here's that trailer.

What up, murder brothers. Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 just got a new PvE mission, featuring the somewhat cranky Trygon, a big Tyranid beastie with more arms than is generally prudent. The boss will burst out of the sands of planet Avarax to stab you with said arms, but only after you hunt him down for a bit. Better take the new weapon the developers are also adding in this update: the Inferno pistol. If you want to see how shiny and well-painted these new additions look (you Warhammer freak...
