Well, that's a shame. After Intel had some CPU issues in late 2024, the company seemingly bounced back with its Battlemage GPUs. The last time we checked in on them, Battlemage was doing pretty well in sales, and things looked rosy. However, it appears that Intel has changed its plans and has cancelled its high-end GPU...at least, for the time being.

You want the best performance of your PC, and you're on the hunt for the best DDR5 RAM to help your rig run as fast as it can. There's just one little hurdle: do you go with the XMP or EXPO kit?

Are you on the hunt for a shiny new Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090? If so, there's some good news; the GPUs have been spotted in stock, and they're currently selling for a cool $3,719. If that has put you right off of buying one, don't worry; it seems you're far from alone.

If you're in the market for a new PC, your bravery is commendable. It's not the best of times to be a PC builder right now, considering the abject state of gaming GPUs. It doesn't look like we'll get graphics cards at MSRP again any time soon. Still, if you can't live without a new gaming PC, and want to experience the latest and greatest titles, such as Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, it's possible to build a DDR5 future-ready machine on a budget.

Single-Board Computers are typically the most common recommendation when searching for a tiny device to power your computing projects, though they’re far from the only option. Once you dig past waves of SBCs, you may find yourself looking at a compute module. While they’re just as effective as SBCs at bringing your tinkering fantasies to life, compute modules differ from their comrades in arms (pun intended) in several ways.

Portable monitors are a great way to add screen real estate to your current setup without taking up a lot of space. The best part is that you can also take it with you on the go, making it a versatile tool that's great for any occasion. With that said, we think this one from Arzopa is going to be worth taking a look at, coming in at 16.1 inches, and at a price that can't be ignored at just $77.

While the argument could be made that Microsoft has included some questionable apps in Windows over the years (and still does), some that the company has deprecated or flat-out abandoned were actually useful. The company has a habit of unceremoniously removing apps it deems inadequate. Some decisions are welcome, like putting Internet Explorer out to pasture. Other apps and features were helpful, and their removal isn’t appreciated. There are usually workarounds to get the retired app functionality back once it has been removed. Luckily, we have a good list of alternative apps you can use for the ones Microsoft forgot.

Microsoft releases one major Windows update every year to introduce new features to Windows 11. However, Windows Insiders don't have to wait that long to enjoy new functionalities, as they get early access to various new capabilities every month, including those that might not ship to the general releases.

Google just introduced its latest budget smartphone, the Pixel 9a, with a much more streamlined design and upgraded specs. As has become typical for the Pixel a series, the Pixel 9a looks to offer tremendous value for the price, now with a brighter display, faster processor, and other upgrades, which makes it an easy device to recommend.

The network-attached storage (NAS) has evolved into a fully-fledged server, allowing you to install and host various services. Doing so makes it possible to configure your home or office with numerous self-hosted apps and services. Although Synology has an app store, I recommend using Docker containers where possible. I'll run through a few of my favorite Docker containers that you can (and should) run on your Synology NAS.

With the prevalence of hustle culture and a crowded online arena constantly vying for our attention, it's no wonder that many people rely on productivity apps to keep organized.
