Death Stranding coming to the PC looks like a slightly stronger possibility now, as following previous rumors – and indeed an announcement way back when (more on that later) – it seems references to the game being a PS4 exclusive have been dropped from the official PlayStation sites. Indeed, it has also vanished from the UK site, and other European official PlayStation sites, so it looks like the game has been removed across the board. So, unless this is some kind of error, the move would seem t

Though the Nintendo Switch Lite goes for a handheld-only design, the real joy of the Nintendo Switch is its versatility, what with its big-screen docked play along with its mobile form factor. A Reddit engineer going by the name Vectordriver explains that the implementation of USB-C connections on third party docks could be frying the systems. ElectrifyingIn an analysis of bricked Switch systems, Vectordriver notes that it’s the Power Delivery (PD) chip that’s being burnt out by gadgets from acc

According to that initial spec (which was posted on the Epic Games Store page), you would need at least a GTX 1060 graphics card and an Intel Core i5-7500 processor at a bare minimum. And the minimum CPU is now an Intel Core i5-4690, stepping back three generations from the i5-7500 (the equivalent is AMD’s FX 4350). All changeAnd the recommended spec has lowered that GPU requirement from a GTX 1080 Ti to a GTX 1060 or 1660 (or AMD Radeon RX 580). So in other words, the GTX 1060 has switched from

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will be ‘fully optimized’ for the PC, meaning this won’t be some kind of deprioritized port of the game (as you would hope), and it will be delivered with a raft of PC-specific features and cross-play with consoles. Modern Warfare will also support ultra-wide monitors, and indeed multiple monitor configurations, along with HDR. Fully customizable controls will be present, and that includes ‘advanced’ options for your bristling-with-buttons gaming mouse. And of course

AMD’s Ryzen 3000 series processors, spearheaded by the Ryzen 7 3700X, have led what looks like an unprecedented assault on Intel’s CPUs, at least going by the figures from one component retailer. The latest stats from German retailer Mindfactory (as highlighted on Reddit) for the month of July show that AMD sold an incredible 79% of all processor units, compared to 21% for Intel. AMD’s top-selling chip was the Ryzen 7 3700X, and get this: sales of that one single processor weren’t far off equali

Facebook confirmed that it’s changing the name of its two most popular apps, Instagram and WhatsApp, to better disclose its ownership of the apps. Soon, Instagram will be known as “Instagram from Facebook” while WhatsApp will become “WhatsApp from Facebook.”The re-branding effort was discovered on Friday by journalists at The Information, and was then confirmed by representatives of Facebook. “We want to be clearer about the products and services that are part of Facebook,” a spokesperson told T

The highly anticipated sci-fi video game, Cyberpunk 2077, will be getting its own spin-off card game named Afterlife sometime in 2020. What is this card game about? A card game certainly seemed likely, with The Witcher III’s card-based mini-game Gwent getting its own standalone game. “In Cyberpunk 2077: Afterlife, players become Fixers, the data brokers and masterminds in Night City that recruit cyberpunks, equip them with gear, and send them out on missions. What we really want is to play the m

Gamescom 2019 is fast approaching and Nintendo has now revealed what its on and offline plans for the show will be. Gamescom itself runs from August 20 to August 24 but the majority of Nintendo’s online activity will take place between the 20th and 22nd. Across these dates, those not attending the show itself will be able to watch a series of videos featuring extended gameplay from the publisher’s upcoming Switch lineup.

Apple will introduce a MacBook which has 5G – the first time Apple’s laptops will offer cellular connectivity – in 2020, according to the latest rumors. This comes from DigiTimes, which admittedly isn’t the most reliable source, but the outlet claims that industry insiders have indicated that Apple will roll out MacBooks toting 5G connectivity in the latter half of 2020. Rumor has it that Apple is looking at using a ceramic antenna board for 5G, rather than the metal which would be traditionally

So, we’ve known for a while that Intel graphics cards are going to be a thing, but now we have an idea of what sector of the market they’ll occupy. However, it would make a lot of sense for Intel to tackle the entry-level market with its initial Intel Xe graphics cards, as that’s where the money is. We previously spotted a rumor that Intel’s Xe graphics cards would have 128 execution units (EUs) at the entry level, which is just twice what the integrated graphics in the new Ice Lake processors f

In fact, we firmly believe that a 2-in-1 laptop could honestly replace most of your Back to School gear. There are several types of 2-in-1 laptops with niche applications, and many for general use at all performance levels. This also makes the 2-in-1 laptop uniquely useful to both teachers and students, with many 2-in-1s being ideal for both kinds of users. Here’s what it is exactly about 2-in-1 laptops that are so universally useful, by building a tale of two power users: teacher versus student

[Image Credit: Burst/Pexels]There was a time when there was only one or two music streaming services to choose from – or you could just be cheap and rely on YouTube. But when it comes to music streaming these days, we’re spoilt by the number of options on offer. But you don’t want to pay for each of them every single month just for a few perks – so which music streaming service should you choose? Prices, features, exclusives and music quality vary across the options, and, like all things, music

Back when the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT and RX 5700 launched on July 7, we praised them for offering excellent value, even after Nvidia tried to beat AMD in pricing. This was pretty much confirmed when PowerColor, one of the biggest aftermarket manufacturers of AMD graphics cards, posted on Facebook, advertising its variations on the RX 5700 XT, starting at $399 (about £320, AU$570). That’s the same price as the reference card, which launched at the same $399 (about £320, AU$570). A GPU manufacturer
