We still have about a year to go before Sony launches its next-generation PlayStation 5 console, which will go up against Microsoft’s upcoming Xbox Series X.

It’s exciting because 2020 figures to be a big year in tech—new graphics cards, new game consoles (at the end of the year), more advancements in VR, and of course new CPUs.

In the ongoing quest to deliver increasingly thinner and lighter laptops, hardware makers may be getting a big assist from Intel. It’s said the chip maker is planning to introduce a new thermal module design at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) next month, which would bolster heat dissipation in laptops by 25-30 percent.
