Sometime in 2027 to 2028, AMD could release Medusa Halo, its next-gen entry in the high-performance Halo APU lineup. It's said to feature Zen 6 CPU cores and RDNA 5 graphics. A new leak suggests it could also support LPDDR6 memory, enabling bandwidths up to 460.8 GB/s on a 256-bit interface with 14,400 MT/s speeds.

Fresh leaks reveal that Nova Lake might have a maximum power limit of 700W on the top-end, unlocked silicon with dual compute tiles. Moreover, Nova Lake is apparently blocking TJMax offsets and removing the ability to prevent thermal throttling. Lastly, the family can apparently boot without the P-cores entirely, relying on LP-E cores or E-cores.

Another chip from Intel's upcoming Arrow Lake refresh lineup has leaked online, this time appearing on the Geekbench platform with solid scores. The Core Ultra 250K Plus, the company's next desktop midranger, posted 3,113 points in the single-threaded results and 15,251 points in the multi-threaded test.

Cursor, an AI-assisted development environment, essentially an IDE, is being used by Nvidia internally to boost coding efficiency. Cursor says the Green Team's internal code commits have tripled since its implementation while the bug rate has stayed flat, leading to increased productivity across every phase of the development lifecycle.

Optimum Tech has shown the faintest burn-in on its OLED monitor after 3,000 hours of use over two years, primarily from close to 500 hours of Overwatch. All that gameplay burned in the player card and health bar in the bottom-left corner, only really visible on specific colored backgrounds if you pixel peep.

New leaks point toward a March 23 embargo lift for review of Intel's upcoming Arrow Lake refresh. However, this batch appears to include only three chips, with the Core Ultra 9 290K Plus absent from the lineup. Early pricing for these three processors has also leaked out, showing reductions across the board.

Intel's answer to AMD's handheld dominance was teased at CES 2026 with reports pointing toward a Q1 2026 launch, but new info says the release has been pushed back to Q2 2026. The alleged "Core G3" series will feature two SKUs, both 14-core configs, with new iGPUs: Arc B360 with 10 Xe cores and Arc B380 with 12 Xe cores.

A Redditor was able to get a 1 TB PNY CS2241, a 2 TB Samsung T5 Evo, and two WD Black SN770 SSDs for a total of just $210 at their local Walmart. These items have a combined retail value of around $1,327 currently, so our lucky scavenger saved over a grand by looking through the clearance aisle.

The upgraded launcher will be released as a mid-year update, featuring upgrades such as private DMs, player avatars and profiles, and even independent live chat. Beyond the social features, EGS will be made lighter and quicker, less reliant on Epic's backend to do everything, which should result in a better user experience.

German retailers' inventory saw DDR5 memory prices stabilizing for the first time in months, with some kits even miraculously seeing price cuts compared to the start of January. This doesn't indicate that the crisis is over, or even that there will be no more price hikes, but rather that the unpredictability is finally starting to wither.

Panther Lake chips with Arc B370 and Arc B390 iGPUs will require RAM running at 7,467 MT/s or higher since integrated graphics rely on shared system memory. If the RAM config is any slower, those impressive iGPUs will be relabeled to generic "Intel Graphics" in Task Manager in an effort to prevent vendors from under-equipping machines.

As Intel gears to launch its Arrow Lake refresh, leaks for the lineup keep pouring in left and right — the latest one being a Geekbench spotting for the flagship Core Ultra 9 290K Plus. The chip scored 10.5% higher in single-core and 11.29% higher in multi-core tests compared to the existing Core Ultra 9 285K.

New OLED and Mini-LED monitors sure look enticing, but they often come with eye-watering demands and sometimes you just need something simple. Samsung's G50D is about as straightforward as it gets with a 32-inch Fast IPS panel featuring 1440p resolution and 180 Hz refresh rate that supports both G-Sync and FreeSync.

If you're looking for a cheap but straightforward solution to access your old media locked behind an outdated storage medium, or just want to respect tradition and hold onto DVD/CDs, this external disc drive is the perfect tool for you. For just $10, you can read and write all your old discs with a USB connection on any computer or laptop.

Google's Project Genie can generate games using the company's Genie 3 model, which is trained on prompts from Gemini. It's an experimental tool that doesn't even create fully playable games, but it was still enough to shiver the timbers of video game shareholders. Unity saw a 20% drop in its stock price following the reveal of Project Genie, along with several other firms.

An RTX 4090 has been caught melting on camera, with streamer "jessick" being lucky enough to record the incident for the internet. The GPU caught fire while playing and streaming Marvel Rivals on Twitch, and the video shows a wire melting with visible smoke. For some reason, jessick didn't immediately turn off her PC after seeing something on fire inside.

Aside from being weirdly malevolent, printer cartridges are quite wasteful in most situations because they're designed to be thrown away once empty. Los Angeles is trying to fix that by banning any single-use ink or toner that can't be properly recycled or that doesn't have a take-back program from the vendor. The new ordinance still needs to be fully approved by the City Council.
