• Looking for advice on gaming laptop/monitor

  Greetings friends, I currently have a very old gaming pc that I have not upgraded in close to a decade. It has a 970 in it so yeah... I have decided that I would rather have something portable that I can play on my lunch breaks at work and take with me travelling. I also want to get a nice gaming monitor that I can plug it into when I'm at home. I was looking at anandtech.com for suggestions but I thought it would... Source: about 1 year ago

• Just wanted to share my first build and set up. Not exactly where I want it to be but I’ve worked very hard and I’m very proud. Specs on second pic

• How engineers actually make the clock faster?

  In other words, why does Intel (or any other company) offer many different processors with many different speeds? It's kind of like asking why don't all cars go 0 to 60 in 3 seconds because Ferraris and Teslas can do it. Semiconductor materials technology, processor architecture, power consumption, heat dissipation, packaging and manufacturing cost are all important. Marketing certainly plays a role. It's...

• Games that support 120 FPS on iPhone 13 pro max?

  My advice, wait for anandtech.com analysis - it's the best you can get and will really show you where iphone's pro series A15 stands against A14, including in sustained performance. Source: over 2 years ago

• I Built My New Linux Gaming Desktop in 2021 with AMD (CPU+GPU) and GNU Guix

  You need a heatsink for the PCIe4 SSDs to get their full performance, PCIe3 SSDs are fine without. My goto for HW knowledge is https://anandtech.com. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
