In March, Endorfy introduced its latest power supply, the Supremo FM6 1000W, offering full compliance with the ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 standards. At launch, it had been certified as 80Plus Gold. Now a couple of months later, the PSU has gone through the rigorous Cybenetics certification process.
The Endorfy FM6 1000W PSU now has its Cybenetics certifications for both power efficiency and noise output. While traditionally, 80Plus efficiency ratings are based on four load points, the Cybenetics process tests for thousands of load point combinations for a more accurate overall rating.
The Endorfy Supremo FM6 1000W power supply has achieved the Cybenetics Platinum efficiency rating and scored an A in the noise output test. With both scores, customers can be confident that this power supply will offer efficient power management and delivery, combined with low noise output under load.
More specifically, the PSU achieves a 90.01% efficiency score at 115V and 92.18% at 230V. The fan has an average acoustic output if 21.91dBA at 115V and 20.50dBA at 230V.
As Cybenetics testing is all public, you can read the full certification report and see all of the test results, HERE.

Today, Cooler Master is introducing its latest addition to the line-up, the Hyper 612 APEX.
The new Cooler Master Hyper 612 Apex CPU cooler is built using in-house developed superconductive heatpipes to carry heat away from the CPU, and two Cooler Master 120P fans to dissipate that heat quickly and efficiently. The high performance heat pipes allowed Cooler Master to shrink the dimensions of the cooler by 30 percent compared to its predecessor, which in turn makes the cooler easier to install, and improves compatibility with various cases and memory modules.
Below are the key features for the Cooler Master Hyper 612 Apex CPU cooler:
Speaking on the launch, Cooler Master CEO, Jimmy Sha, said: “With our advanced heat pipe technology and compact design, this cooler delivers high-performance results while staying user-friendly for a wide range of builds.”
The Cooler Master Hyper 612 APEX CPU cooler will be available soon. UK pricing is still to be confirmed.

While fans eagerly await the announcement and subsequent release of Resident Evil 9, other titles in the franchise have continued to sell well, with multiple RE titles hitting record numbers.
Making the announcement via a blog post, the team at Capcom officially confirmed that 2023’s RE4 Remake has hit a new major milestone of over 10 million copies sold – officially making it one of Capcom’s best-selling games.
That said, other RE titles still have it beat, with 2019’s much-loved Resident Evil 2 Remake having now surpassed 15 million copies sold (matching that of RE7: Biohazard).
This marks both RE7 and RE2 Remake as the joint 3rd-best selling games of all time from Capcom, only being beaten by Monster Hunter Rise (16.7 million) and World (21.3 million) – and perhaps MH: Wilds.
Regardless, Resident Evil continues to prove itself as one of Capcom’s most important franchises. It will be interesting to see just how quickly RE9 sells when it inevitably releases.

Interestingly, one game which may not come to Switch 2 is Diablo IV, with Blizzard claiming the platform to be “challenging” for live-service titles.
In a recent interview with Gamertag Radio, the Senior Vice President / General Manager for Diablo at Blizzard ‘Rod Fergusson’ was asked about the upcoming Switch 2 and their plans for the system.
With a rather interesting response, Fergusson had this to say: “I think there’s opportunity there for sure. I mean, we have Diablo III and Diablo II Resurrected is already on the Switch, and with back compat like it’ll be playable on Switch 2.”
He continued, “It's nice the Switch 2 has the performance that can run a game like Diablo 4, so yeah, it's something to look at for sure. I think the challenge is less around the hardware and just about how we… you know, live services on Switch have been a little bit challenging in the past.”
Offering some positivity on the matter, Fergusson concluded by stating “I'm hopeful that as they launch this June and as we look to the future, that becomes easier and easier, so it makes more sense to put a live service on that platform.”
As mentioned by Fergusson, both Diablo II and III are available on the OG Switch and so the idea that a live-service title can’t work on Nintendo’s sequel system is slightly odd. That said, it would be highly surprising if Diablo IV didn’t eventually make its way onto Switch 2. We will have to wait and see.

As discovered by Reddit user ‘Budget-Neat4750’ a select number of PlayStation users have had their PS Plus tab updated with a listing for the Until Dawn Remake as one of the available monthly games.
Of course, right now, the title is not actually available to claim, with April’s PS Plus line-up still set to be available until the 6th of May – those games being RoboCop Rogue City; Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth – Hacker's Memory and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Given this, it is highly likely that last year’s Until Dawn remake will be one of May’s headlining PlayStation Plus titles. This also lines up with the recent release of the Until Dawn film a couple days ago; making for a great synergistic release.
All that said, the Until Dawn Remake was a bit of a controversial release, with some fans arguing the original game to be superior. Since its launch last year however, the Remake has seen a number of updates, which at the very least helped with performance issues.
It will be interesting to see what the wider audience thinks of the game should it wind up being one of next month’s PS Plus titles.
KitGuru says: What do you think of the Until Dawn Remake? Was it as disappointing as some claimed? Have you checked out the film adaptation yet, and if so, did you enjoy it? Let us know down below.

In alignment with the announcement that the remaster has surpassed 4 million total players, Oblivion managed to hit a new peak concurrent player count on Steam on Sunday.
Over the weekend, as some of the early launch day bugs were squashed and more people got the chance to hop into the game, TES IV: Oblivion Remastered managed to surpass its day-one concurrent player count on Steam.
While CCUs are a rather arbitrary metric (particularly for single player games) it is still worthy of note, especially in instances such as this, as Oblivion Remastered has now seen a new peak CCU of over 200,000 players – 216,784 to be specific.
Though not uncommon for a game to rise in popularity during the weekend period, it is interesting to consider whether Oblivion’s surprise ‘shadow drop’ launch has contributed to its continued rise in concurrent players as more people were made aware of its release.
Regardless, it will be interesting to see how the game continues to perform over time, and whether it has hit its peak, or if this is just the start.

In a tweet, Sandfall Interactive thanks fans for their support of the game, adding that they reached the 1 million players milestone sooner than expected. Impressively, this 1 million sales figure does not include players who have installed the game via Game Pass.
For those out of the loop, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a new turn-based RPG where players look to take down The Paintress, a goddess-like figure that controls death in this fantasy universe. The game has gone on to receive wide acclaim from critics and gamers themselves are leaving overwhelmingly positive reviews for the game on Steam.

Now, company bosses are looking to bring the costs down and make its Reality Labs team more efficient.
According to sources speaking with Bloomberg, Meta is undergoing a round of job cuts at its Reality Labs division, with “more than 100″employees set to be impacted.
A Meta spokesperson later gave comment to The Verge, confirming that “some teams” were undergoing layoffs. The goal with this is to make Mixed Reality development more efficient, which sounds like an admission that Meta Reality Labs has lost too much money and things need to start turning around.
Despite seeing little return, Meta has continued to invest in its Reality Labs division, putting out new Quest VR hardware and acquiring additional companies to bolster its mixed reality offerings.

Now, Bungie has responded to the criticism.
Bungie will be making adjustments in an upcoming patch for the Marathon alpha test. This update will include disabling ‘aim magnetism' on mouse. It is unclear if aim assist will return for mouse users, but given how heavy-handed the ‘assist' was, it will need to be heavily nerfed in order to make a return.
While many shooters will offer some form of aim assist to controller users, aim assist is traditionally not offered to keyboard and mouse users due to the ease of aiming with a mouse compared to a controller's analogue sticks. While aim assist on controllers is generally accepted, spoofing your input to access aim assist on a mouse is often viewed as cheating and many games now actively ban players for using such tools.
In Marathon, aim assist was available for both controller users and mouse users. It was switched on by default in the Marathon alpha and it would essentially cause your aim to snap onto enemies. It also seemed to help with recoil control, taking another element of skill out of the shootout.
Discuss on our Facebook page, HERE.
KitGuru Says: After seeing some of the gameplay footage, I had my doubts that mouse aim-assist would remain in the game past this alpha playtest. It is being removed for now. It will be interesting to see if Bungie makes any tweaks and attempts to add it back in for future playtests.

Capcom has not yet made any official announcements regarding Resident Evil 9 but a recent teaser shows that the company is gearing up for a reveal.
In a recent milestone video celebrating 10 million players for Resident Evil 4 Remake, Capcom hid a little sign numbered ‘IX'. This was quickly picked up on by fans on social media.
Resident Evil 9 has been in the works since Resident Evil Village shipped. The next game is set to conclude the story that began with Resident Evil 7, which introduced all new characters to the franchise.
According to long-time Resident Evil leaker, Dusk Golem, Resident Evil 9 will be announced later this year, with a release date scheduled for 2026. Typically, Capcom likes to release major titles in the first half of the year, as we've seen in recent years with the likes of Monster Hunter Wilds and Dragon's Dogma 2 being Q1 releases.

The Glacier One D30 X2 utilises Phanteks' D30 fans, which cleverly link together physically, simplifying installation and significantly reducing cable clutter by handling power and D-RGB lighting for multiple fans via a single cable connection. The cooler also features a large copper base paired with an optimised fin array, engineered for efficient heat transfer from even the most demanding CPUs.

This fan provides active cooling to the surrounding motherboard VRMs and M.2 SSDs, contributing to overall system stability and performance. The cooler supports most modern platforms, including Intel LGA 1700, 1200, and 115x sockets, as well as AMD's AM4 and AM5 sockets.
The Glacier One D30 X2 series is available in black and white and will be fully integrated into Phanteks' new Nexlinq ecosystem (RGB lighting and fan control). The 360mm version is priced at £159.90/$179.99/€179.90, while the larger 420mm model, also available in black or white, retails for £169.90/$189.99/€189.90.

According to a recent report, a series of Radeon RX 9000M GPUs for laptops is now on the way.
According to All The Watts!!, this mobile series will be split across two GPU dies. The top tier is expected to feature two GPUs built on Navi 48: the rumoured flagship Radeon RX 9080M and the RX 9070M XT. The RX 9080M is tipped to pack the full 64 CUs (4,096 Stream Processors) paired with 16GB of memory. The RX 9070M XT is rumored to come with 48 CUs (3072 SPs) and 12GB of memory.
Moving down the stack, the remaining four GPUs are believed to be based on Navi 44. These are the RX 9070M, RX 9070S, RX 9060M, and RX 9060S, where the ‘S' variants are expected to be lower-power versions. The RX 9070M and 9070S are rumoured to feature 32 CUs (2,048 SPs), while the entry-level RX 9060M and 9060S are said to have 28 CUs (1,792 SPs). All four of these SKUs are reportedly equipped with 8GB of memory.

While Intel has not yet confirmed any specific numbers, CEO Lip-Bu Tan, has confirmed that layoffs will be taking place soon.
Lip-Bu Tan wants Intel to be a leaner company with a more engineer-first mindset. This process will involve ‘flattening the organisation' to remove “unnecessary bureaucracy”. It has also been noted that management are no longer to focus on team size as a key performance metric.
Speaking more specifcally on the wider lay-offs, Tan said: “There is no way around the fact that these critical changes will reduce the size of our workforce. As I said when I joined, we need to make some very hard decisions to put our company on a solid footing for the future. This will begin in Q2 and we will move as quickly as possible over the next several months.”

They've just unveiled two new wireless mice aimed squarely at productivity: the Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical Edition, and the updated Razer Pro Click V2. These mice blend gaming-grade precision with a focus on ergonomic comfort, designed for all-day support without sacrificing performance.
Leading the charge for unique ergonomics is Razer's first vertical wireless mouse, the Pro Click V2 Vertical Edition. Its 71.7° angle mimics a natural handshake grip to reduce strain, and the extended thumb rest and base support further enhance comfort and improve wrist posture. The standard Razer Pro Click V2 features a more traditional yet ergonomic 30° inclined angle for a neutral hand position, with comfortable curves and rubberised grips that aid all-day use.
Both Pro Click V2 mice are packed with serious tech. They feature the Razer Focus Pro 30K optical sensor for exceptional precision with 99.8% accuracy, ensuring smooth tracking even on glass. Mechanical switches rated for 60 million clicks provide crisp feedback for demanding tasks. At the same time, Razer's HyperScroll Technology offers versatility with rapid Free-Spin scrolling for documents and tactile cycling for precise control. Perhaps the most unique feature for a productivity mouse is Razer's new AI Prompt Master. This tool streamlines the prompt writing process by providing quick access to popular AI services, such as ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot. Users can instantly rephrase, summarise, or create prompts simply by pressing a dedicated mouse button.
Connectivity is robust, offering 5-way multi-device pairing, including Razer's ultra-low-latency HyperSpeed Wireless, which ensures smooth, lag-free performance across multiple devices, such as PCs, laptops, and tablets. Battery life is quite good, with a five-minute USB-C charge providing up to 2-3 working days of usage. A Smart Dimming feature also helps conserve power. Both models feature multi-zone, full underglow Razer Chroma RGB lighting, allowing for customisable effects that can sync with over 300 compatible games and devices.
The Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical Edition is now available, priced at £119.99/€129.99/$119.99. The standard Razer Pro Click V2 is also available now for £99.00/€109.99/$99.99.

The company is rolling out the Professional NM1090 PRO PCIe 5.0 SSD, the NQ780 M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 SSD, and the NQ700 M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 SSD, all designed to provide the maximum performance on their respective PCIe standards.
Lexar's new flagship is the Professional NM1090 PRO PCIe 5.0 SSD. This drive is designed for those who demand the absolute peak in storage performance, boasting sequential read speeds of up to 14,000 MB/s and write speeds of up to 13,000 MB/s. Powering this speed is a 6nm controller, chosen in part for its ability to efficiently manage heat, promoting more consistent performance under sustained loads. Leveraging features such as dedicated DRAM Cache and SLC dynamic cache, the NM1090 PRO is designed to dramatically increase data transfer speeds, reduce loading times, and enhance overall system responsiveness.
Stepping down in raw speed, but still firmly in the high-performance category, is the NQ780 M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 SSD. This drive is built with premium technology, allowing it to deliver sequential read speeds of up to 7,000 MB/s and write speeds of up to 6,000 MB/s. The NQ780 features a convenient single-sided design, making it ideal for installation in laptops and compact systems where space can be limited. Its Intelligent Power Control further enhances its suitability for mobile use. Lexar also bundles the useful Lexar DiskMaster SSD management software with the drive, allowing users to update firmware and monitor the health of their storage easily.
Then, in the PCIe 3.0 realm, there's the NQ700 SSD, capable of delivering read speeds of up to 4,500 MB/s and write speeds of up to 3,000 MB/s. Featuring SLC dynamic cache and HMB (Host Memory Buffer), the NQ700 can enhance responsiveness on most systems that still use older SATA drives. Like the NQ780, it supports Lexar DiskMaster to update firmware and monitor the drive's health.
The Professional NM1090 PRO is currently available for purchase in 1TB and 2TB capacities, priced at $179.99 and $269.99, respectively. A larger 4TB option is expected to be added to the lineup later this summer. The NQ780 is now available in three capacities: a 1TB model priced at approximately $79.99, a 2TB option at $149.99, and a spacious 4TB version priced at $289.99. Lastly, the NQ700 will be available in 1TB and 2TB capacities, but pricing hasn't been disclosed yet.
