Windows 10 was a real return to form for Microsoft’s ubiquitous line of operating systems following the confoundingly touchscreen-centric Windows 8, but I can’t say I paid its default desktop wallpaper any mind at the time—I pretty much immediately swapped it for videogame concept art or something. But that was because I just assumed it…

Devotees of the Mini-ITX form factor have lots of options to choose from, from the entry level to the high end, with multiple platforms and chipset options. ITX has displaced Micro ATX as the preeminent small form factor. ITX has displaced Micro ATX as the preeminent small form factor. I’m very much a Mini-ITX fan,…

The upside-down insect look is a popular one among Wi-Fi router manufacturers, who seem to assume that they’re something you’re going to keep behind the couch or in a cupboard rather than attempt to balance on a narrow shelf near the point at which the internet cabling enters your home. The aggressive styling can make…

The Lampylumen Myriad boss is one of the many you can unlock in Wuthering Waves once you’ve been playing the game for a little while. Though it’s slightly unclear what exactly this boss is—beyond just a giant frost monster—you’ll need to beat it to acquire Sound-Keeping Tacet Cores to level your starting healer, Baizhi. The…

You can almost hear Also Sprach Zarathustra playing as you unbox the latest Nighthawk. It may be named after Lockheed’s stealthy ground attack plane, but in the flesh it’s all 2001’s black monolith. And just like Clark’s creation the Netgear Nighthawk RS700S is here to uplift you. It brings with it unheard of technologies that…

There are a whole bunch of ‘if only’ features of the OneXPlayer X1 that could have made this interesting take on the market a genuinely great handheld gaming PC. If only the Meteor Lake silicon was efficient enough to deliver a game-changing level of handheld battery life. If only the Xe GPU architecture was more…

At last, MSI’s take on the brave new generation of 32-inch 4K OLED gaming monitors has landed. Why have we been so keen to get our filthy paws on the MSI MPG321URX? Simple. It’s by far the cheapest available.  At least it is when there is actually availability. We’ve seen it offered for around $849…

The first deck I specialized in, playing the old Magic: The Gathering deckbuilder Shandalar, was white weenies. A whole diluvian flood of cheap white creatures that were individually nothing much, but combined into something that would drown you like everyone Noah wasn’t related to. It’s one of the oldest archetypes in Magic, and one that…

Buckle up Simmers, we’re (hopefully) on the cusp of some meaty fixes for The Sims 4. As EA continues to pile expansions and kits on top of a game that’s nearing the big 1-0, crashes and buggy gameplay have become part and parcel of The Sims 4 experience. It’s become a mighty frustrating time—one that’s…

The hype for the next Call of Duty is beginning to spin up in earnest thanks to a new teaser site at thetruthlies.com carrying some shakycam-style video clips and an ominous message: “Open your eyes. The truth lies.” Spotted by Charlie Intel, the site currently carries two videos, each featuring vaguely amateur-looking rabble-rousers out causing…
