Valve is being subjected to yet another multi-million dollar lawsuit, this time stemming from the UK and totaling £656 million British pounds, or roughly ~$904 million USD at current exchange rates.

The rise of RGB lighting on the PC led to an increase in the amount of proprietary software from numerous manufacturers to control said lighting. Unfortunately, this software has varied in quality, which makes many DIYers hesitant to install it. Razer, however, is looking to shake things up by providing a different control method. The company

Google just might've (inadvertently) revealed the first look at its ambitious Android for PC project, bringing the long-awaited unification of ChromeOS and Android to desktop closer to reality. The leak (as spotted by our friends at 9to5Google) originated from a bug report on the Chromium Issue Tracker, which contained two screen recordings

Genesis has unleashed a guttural, 1,100-horsepower roar across the dunes of the Arabian Peninsula. Could the radical X Scorpio concept off-roader be a hint of the brand's upcoming Dakar or WEC aspirations? As you can see, the Genesis X Scorpio concept is a departure from the brand’s typical luxury offerings. Debuting in the Rub' al Khali,

Samsung is set to make a splash in the U.S. market with release of its Galaxy Z TriFold on Friday, January 30, 2026. How big of a splash are we talking about? A sizable one, like a cannonball from a high-rise diving board, and that's regardless of whether you're talking about its ginormous display that folds out twice into a tablet-like form

Deep in the digital bedrock of 35 years of Hubble observation archives, a new AI tool has uncovered more than 800 previously undocumented cosmic anomalies in a scant two and a half days.  Using a sophisticated neural network called AnomalyMatch, astronomers have unearthed nearly 1,400 bizarre astronomical objects hidden within the Hubble

SK hynix is making a major investment on U.S. soil with the formation of an AI solutions firm that it is tentatively calling AI Company (or AI Co.). Most of the finer grain details are light at the moment, though from a high-level overview, the South Korean memory chip maker says its new firm will be focused on finding "new AI growth engines." As

At long last, Beijing has given several domestic tech giants its stamp of approval to buy H200 chips based on NVIDIA's Hopper architecture, with the green light coming while NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang was visiting China, Reuters reports. Sources who are purportedly familiar with the matter told the outlet that ByteDance, the owner of TikTok,

The star of Intel's CES 2026 show was of course its new Core Ultra 300 series processors, code-named Panther Lake. We have our review up if you haven't read it already, but the short version is that they offer all-around impressive performance—particularly the Xe3-based integrated graphics. Well, those graphics just got a fresh performance

Microsoft is rolling out a preview of an updated look and feel for its Xbox Cloud Gaming web experience as the company eyes opening up the service to more users with an ad-supported tier.

SoundCloud, best known as a home to indie musicians including the popular "SoundClown" comedy remixers, has been hit with a major data breach that includes the avatars, email addresses, names, usernames, locations, and profile statistics of nearly 30 million (29.8 million) accounts.

Some chilling news has crept through the wire for those who prefer physical games or are starved for SSD space—apparently, Grand Theft Auto 6 is due to launch as a digital-only title.

Using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have been able to compile the most detailed map of dark matter ever produced, exposing the ghostly scaffolding that has guided the growth of our universe for billions of years. With JWST, astronomers have produced one of the most detailed maps to date of dark matter. The overlaid

For all of the advancements in modern TVs, including brighter and more vibrant display panels (hello, OLED and mini LED), thinner profiles, and more capable built-in smarts, the one consistent weakness is audio. Sure, some TV models fare better than others. But none of them truly rival a discrete home theater speaker setup. If you've been

If Apple is good at one thing, it's the length of software/firmware support for its devices. To wit, within a large iOS and WatchOS update dump this week, owners of the 13-year-old iPhone 5s received a nice little gift that allows users to use iMessage and Facetime after certificates expire at the end of this year. Almost lost in the hubbub

Micron has committed to investing $24 billion over the next decade to expand its NAND manufacturing complex in Singapore.

Barring any delays, it's also

Nearly five years after introducing its first AirTag tracker, Apple is rolling out its second-generation iteration with key upgrades, including an expanded Bluetooth range and a louder built-in speaker.

When we first confirmed the existence of intel's BMG-G31 GPU, the so-called "Big Battlemage", we heard about four different SKUs, only one of which was an 'Arc' GPU for gamers. The other three were Arc Pro models intended for the professional workstation market, and so it's no surprise that it seems as if the first BMG-G31-based GPU we'll
