Beelink was established in 2011 & is regarded as one of the top sellers in the Mini PC category at Amazon. The company has a diverse portfolio of Mini PCs, Players, and gadgets, but the core focus is on the Mini PC segment, which includes both Intel and AMD options. While we have looked at several of Beelink's Mini PC options in the past, ranging from AMD & Intel CPUs, the company has introduced a new Intel model recently, the EQi 304, which is based on Intel's Wildcat Lake SoCs. This is the first Mini PC to feature Wildcat Lake, […]

AMD's AM5 platform has been a solid entry, featuring some of the best chips on the market and a wide variety of entry-level and high-end options to select from. Despite the AM5 launch, AMD was still focusing on releasing the more mainstream and budget-tier solutions for the older AM4 socket, which still holds the majority share, but the company has recently started to launch affordable CPU options in its AM5 segment. The Ryzen 5 7600X was one such example. But with recent component price hikes, it has become even more vital to support older lineups. The commitment to AM4 remains […]

The GPU isn't that bad at all, and performs slightly slower than its competitor from the team Red. However, being capped at just 100W, it can't perform similar to a desktop variant. Reviewer Tests Desktop RTX 4080M GPU With Mobile GPU Core and Finds Slightly Lower Performance vs RX 9700 GRE in Games You may or may not be aware of such a graphics card, but it exists in the Chinese markets. This isn't the regular RTX 4080, but a variant that uses the RTX 4080 mobile chip. Yes, it's still a desktop graphics card that sells without a warranty […]

Users are already seeing huge gains with the latest AMD upscaler on older-generation graphics cards. Radeon RX 7900 XTX Reportedly Hits 2X Frame Rates With AMD FSR 4.1 in Cyberpunk 2077 at 4K RT Ultra As you might know, AMD's FSR 4.1 support for the RX 7000 series dropped two days ago, and users have already started seeing huge gains in games. It's well-known that FSR 4 is more demanding than FSR 3.1, but even on the Balanced preset, games usually see much better visual fidelity than FSR 3.1 Quality. This is exactly what we are seeing in benchmarks reported […]

CD Projekt RED famously suffered a major hit to its sterling reputation with the launch of Cyberpunk 2077, mainly because of the major bugs and terribly underwhelming console performance on previous-generation hardware, which forced Sony to remove the game from the PlayStation Store until it was fixed a few months later. The Polish studio worked very hard to resolve all these technical issues and further improve the game's features and content, culminating in the release of Update 2.0 and the Phantom Liberty expansion, both of which were extremely well received and made the game very appealing to gamers once again […]

Let's face it: the days of running FurMark for 30 minutes, watching nothing explode, and calling your GPU "stable" are long gone. Modern GPUs from NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel are smarter, more power-hungry, and far more dynamic in their clock-speed behavior than the older graphics cards we grew up overclocking. GPU synthetic/stress tests like FurMark, OCCT, and 3DMark absolutely still have their place, but treating any single tool as the holy grail of stability is a big mistake. Today's GPUs constantly juggle clocks, voltages, and temperatures on the fly. A GPU overclock (or undervolt) that flies through a traditional rasterized […]

Intel's Arc Pro GPU journey began with the first-generation Alchemist A-series products, and last year, the company introduced its Battlemage B-Series products. The first generation of products was aimed at the budget segment, offering good perf/$, and while the positioning continues with the Battlemage lineup, it looks like Intel is slightly moving towards a higher-end segment with its Arc Pro B60, B65, and B70 series. This move comes at a time when AI is the talk of the town, and local AI agents are becoming more and more popular. Also, Intel's recent workstation lineup, the Xeon 600 series, makes getting […]

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is launching on Nintendo Switch 2 and Xbox Series X|S in a little over a week on June 3, and the second entry in the series is already set to break a record on the Nintendo current-generation system in terms of file size, making games like Cyberpunk 2077 Special Edition feel like very small games in comparison. According to new information found on the game's Japanese My Nintendo Store page, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will be 102 GB big. Although the final file size may differ, as the official European Nintendo website shows a 91.5 GB […]

Coming after what is commonly regarded as one of the finest open-world role-playing games ever made, CD Projekt Red will have to go the extra mile with The Witcher 4 to deliver a game that will meet the high expectations its predecessor has set. Although it was eventually fixed and improved, Cyberpunk 2077's known launch woes are making more than a few worried that the studio's next big adventure will have a similarly troubled release. However, the Polish developer is imposing certain requirements to prevent the same development chaos that affected their previous games. “We've got some new requirements, especially a new […]

ASUS is no stranger to collaborating with media franchises on special edition releases for their components. Most notably, anything from the ROG x EVANGELION collection becomes an instant collector's classic with a massive premium on the secondhand market. When ASUS UAE first reached out to me looking to sample the Flow Z13-KJP, I assumed it would be similar to those previous ROG collaborations: gear that looked decent and certainly amassed a fan following, but nothing really deeper than a decal slapped on existing components. Boy, was I wrong. What's In The Box Inside the box, you'll find the laptop along […]

If you can believe it, Cyberpunk 2077 is about to get yet another visual improvement, at least for players who power their console gaming with a PS5 Pro. Developer CD Projekt RED's infamous RPG is getting a new update tomorrow, April 8, 2026, specifically around allowing the game to take full advantage of the professional-grade PlayStation, and the additional power that comes with it over a base PS5. A new PlayStation Blog post digs into the numerous enhancements that PS5 Pro owners will be able to take advantage of, including support for PSSR (and yes, it is PSSR 2.0 support), […]

PC game performance analysis has become dramatically more complex in the DirectX 12 and Vulkan era. Between asynchronous compute, hardware ray tracing, temporal reconstruction, frame generation, and machine learning-assisted denoising, a modern game’s rendered frame is no longer a simple sequence of rasterized draw calls. If you actually want to understand where your performance is going, you need to move beyond basic performance overlays and into a tool that can expose how work is distributed across the GPU, how shaders behave at runtime, and which stages are truly limiting the frame. That is exactly where programs like NVIDIA Nsight Graphics […]

CD Projekt RED, as far as we officially know, is working on The Witcher 4, a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077, an action RPG codenamed Project Hadar, and a Witcher multiplayer game codenamed Project Sirius. There have been a lot of rumors circulating recently that we're also getting a new DLC expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and while that remains unconfirmed, a lot of signs point to it getting revealed and released this year. What we won't be getting, however, according to CD Projekt RED, is a new expansion or new DLCs for Cyberpunk 2077. Through the official Cyberpunk […]

Gentlemen, we meet yet again. It's only been a week since the last time I wrote an article about Optiscaler, but development on the mod is happening at such a rapid pace that I once again have some updates to share with you. This time, it's AMD's Ray Regeneration that's getting the Optiscaler treatment. Thanks to the work done by DarkHelmet, you can now swap Nvidia's Ray Reconstruction for AMD's legally distinct Ray Regeneration denoiser. This is huge news, since currently there's a grand total of two titles with support for Ray Regen, and one of them isn't out till […]

After teasing its arrival in a post on X (formerly Twitter), an Xbox Wire blog post confirms that Cyberpunk 2077 will headline the new batch of games coming to Xbox Game Pass in the first wave of games joining Microsoft's gaming subscription service for March 2026. It's the second CD Projekt RED title to arrive on the service within the last two weeks, after The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt arrived on February 19, 2026. However, just like The Witcher 3's arrival, the catch here is that it'll only be available to console players, so if you're a PC player who […]

Modding continues to be one of the most prominent boons of PC gaming. The open nature of the PC platform gives gamers an unparalleled level of freedom compared to consoles, given how there are dedicated communities who create and share mods that can improve older and newer titles alike by adding new content, resolving bugs, and improving graphics/performance beyond what developers have achieved at launch. Nexus Mods has a massive quantity of mods available from user-created enhancements to games— over hundreds of thousands — allowing players to customize their gaming experience each time they play their favorite games, well after […]
