The beloved series Tomb Raider is making a return with not one, but two new games being published by Amazon Game Studios and developed by series veterans Crystal Dynamics.

The year is 2013. Valve Software, whose Steam digital delivery service has just hit the ten-year mark, has decided it's time to launch a series of gaming PCs, along with a custom operating system.

Framework is on a mission to change the status quo when it comes to laptops, having introduced several modular models with replaceable parts that go beyond the DIY boundaries of what is typical for a laptop. Be that as it may, Framework is susceptible to the same market conditions as everyone else. As a result, it's being forced to raise DDR5

PC memory prices are getting out of control, there's no doubt about that, and storage could be next. You can blame AI and its growing appetite for hardware, which has left consumers in a precarious spot. Somewhat ironically, however, GPU prices continue to level out and sometimes even drop below MSRP. That's the case with a factory overclocked

Bang & Olufsen has once again blurred the lines between high fidelity audio and sculptural fine art with the reveal of two flagship loudspeakers, the Beolab 90 Phantom Edition and Mirage Edition.

Given the rash of recent leaks, we'd be shocked if the upcoming Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas came and went without the roll out of Intel's Arrow Lake-S Refresh processors. Yet another one that we can add to the pile is a pair of retail listings for two as-yet unannounced CPU models, the Core Ultra 9 290K Plus and Core Ultra

It's really important to keep things in context when you're looking at hardware benchmarks. Desktop CPUs often operate with essentially unlimited power and thermal budgets, so it's simply not fair to compare them against laptop chips that must constantly keep power draw in check to deal with thermal constraints and to avoid draining batteries

Those of you using WinRAR, Windows 10, or both should be on high alert. Two new vulnerabilities have been documented in the wild and are being actively exploited.

The holidays may be upon us, but that isn’t slowing down threat actors. Zimperium’s zlabs research team has discovered a new piece of malware targeting Android users, dubbed DroidLock, that aims to completely hijack a device and enable the theft of login credentials or destruction of a victim’s data. As seen with other recent malware it

The ongoing memory shortage and resulting price hikes continue to impact various markets, and according to TrendForce, smartphone, notebook, and console manufacturers, are about to react. The impact won't simply trigger price increases in existing products, either—rather, new devices are expected to compromise on other specifications as well

We're old enough to remember when big screen TVs came with big time prices. They were also a lot more bulky than they are now. Fortunately, this is one area in tech where pricing now favors the consumer (unlike DRAM, don't even get us started), and if you're not ultra-picky, you can score a 65-inch model for less than $300, or even less than

HP Threat Research just issued a new security report detailing a growing trend by attackers towards hijacking session cookies as an alternative means to tried-and-true credential theft.

In an emergency, Android users can now share real-time visual details with 911 dispatchers, bridging a critical information gap that can hinder quick, effective emergency responses. Today Google rolls out Emergency Live Video across Android devices in three countries (running Android 8+), turning a smartphone on-site into a crucial pair of

ASUS is rolling out a new gaming monitor that will make your buddy's 4K panel feel like old tech, especially if theirs is not a dual-mode display. The monitor in question is the ROG Strix 5K XG27JCG, and as the model designation implies, it sports a native 5K resolution (5120x2880). At that tier, even the fastest GPUs like the GeForce RTX

Crossovers are all the rage in gaming right now, as developers and publishers look for ways to keep players coming back. Even a purist franchise like Microsoft Flight Simulator is getting in on the fun, as it looks to bring the world of Stranger Things to players while still delivering the realism and authenticity fans expect. Microsoft

The overall quality of the Windows experience is at a historic low point, due to increasing concerns over AI and feature bloat, and a long list of crippling bugs. With that in mind, many PC gamers are looking longingly at Linux, and the alternative OS is picking up steam in terms of marketshare. Perhaps feeling the scalding heat of gamers'

Google debuted the Pixel Watch 4 a little over 2 months ago, which brought with it a host of improvements including a new domed display alongside fresh health and fitness capabilities. The latest update will enable users to leverage various gestures and AI features, to complete common tasks. One of the new gestures, which will be familiar

It's no secret that Microsoft's drive to turn Windows 11 into an "agentic" AI-focused OS has been controversial, but being de facto market leader does not mean users won't push back, and a handy GitHub script from Zoicware is doing exactly that. For users who want to fully or partially disable AI features in Windows 11, Zoicware's Remove Windows

The writing is on the wall in bright neon colors for gamers on the PC platform—pricing is going up and, if you're planning to buy a new system, do it now before we enter into 2026. That's not just coming from us, but directly from manufacturers like Maingear and others. Driving the point home, Micron recently announced it was ending its Crucial

Eric Migicovsky, the visionary who captivated the early wearable market with the beloved Pebble smartwatch (as well as its recent relaunch), is diversifying the product range with a minimalist, AI-powered device called the Index 01 ring. It's not a smart ring (because technically it isn't) and has only one function: to capture fleeting thoughts. So

Watch out Samsung, because if a new report by the analysts at IDC Research proves accurate, Apple's upcoming iPhone Fold will almost instantly capture a huge portion of the folding smartphone market.

A faint, ancient flash of light detected by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has broken the record for the most distant stellar explosion ever recorded, revealing a massive star’s demise when the cosmos was just a child. Astronomers confirmed the event occurred approximately 13 billion years ago (versus the Big Bang at 13.8 billion years
