Back in December 2024, we saw the then-CEO of Intel Pat Gelsinger step down from his position. Intel was on a pretty bad streak of luck at the time, which only just turned around after the company saw success with its Battlemage GPUs. Well, it seems one person had his back at least, as Bill Gates said he had some faith in him during a recent interview.

It can be hard to justify spending large amounts of money on a new gaming monitor. But the reality is that it can be an important piece to upgrade if you're looking to get the best visual experience possible. As you might expect, there are plenty of great gaming monitors out there, but we think Samsung delivers some of the best options.

While Microsoft 365 is the most popular suite of productivity tools, it isn’t always the perfect fit for everyone. From the latest price increase, to pushing for unnecessary add-ons like Copilot, in addition to its performance strain and basic web apps, there are several compelling reasons to ditch Microsoft Office and explore alternatives.

If you're looking to get into PC gaming but aren't sure how to, you're not alone. There's a lot of information out there, and it's hard to tell what's real and what isn't, especially if you've heard things that aren't necessarily true.

By connecting Notion with other tools, users can expand what’s possible and fill some of the gaps where Notion lacks in functionality. Unfortunately, Notion’s Integration Gallery doesn’t offer much value unless you’re using specific niche platforms. However, there are some meaningful options for everyday users.

Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) sounds like something from Cyberpunk 2077, but it's a very useful feature present on AMD Ryzen processors. PBO allows AMD processors to dynamically adjust power limits, voltages, and clock speeds to improve overall performance. With data from the chip itself, AMD's PBO will adjust PPT (Package Power Tracking), TDC (Thermal Design Current), and EDC (Electrical Design Current) without the need for any manual overclocking, and it will do all of this on the fly. If you have an AMD Ryzen processor, it may be worth activating PBO to get more from your CPU.

While console and PC gaming have evolved side by side for decades, some big franchises have not made the transition to the other platform.

Early access games are a great way to test titles in development, but the creators aren't forced to actually release them. As such, you may purchase an Early Access game, clock a few hours, and then realize that the game was last updated three years ago and will probably never see the light of day. Fortunately, a new Steam update will give you information on each Early Access game so you don't waste your money on a game that's dead the moment you install it.

Thanks to its huge community of talented tinkerers and avant-garde coders, the Raspberry Pi ecosystem is brimming with useful projects.

So, I’ve put together a list of unconventional projects you can build with your tiny tinkering machine.

Whether its running out of physical space, virtual space, or address space, here are some of the things you should think about before setting up your home lab's networking.

The recently rebranded Microsoft Office is still probably the most popular productivity suite worldwide despite many free alternatives which do the same thing. The reason is simple. Most users regard it as the best office suite out there because apps like Word and Excel are polished and have every feature you could ask for to get the job done.
