In late 2020, we took a long, hard look at Dell’s XPS 13 2-in-1 (9310) convertible. The XPS 13 family — in both laptop and 2-in-1 configurations — have long been well-respected in the ultraportable segment, and the latest XPS 13 2-in-1 is no exception.

Coinciding with the release of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury, a handful of retailers have also begun selling a Mario themed Nintendo Switch console.

Late last year, NVIDIA announced its intentions to acquire Arm for a staggering $40 billion, making it one of the biggest chip deals in history. The acquisition plan has recently hit some roadblocks with antitrust regulators worldwide, which could require months of additional maneuvering by NVIDIA. Now, individual companies who are customers

Yesterday, we reported that Intel has effectively blocked customers who bought H410- and B460-based motherboards from upgrading to its upcoming 11th generation Rocket Lake-S processors.

A little over three years ago, Intel lured AMD’s former Radeon Technologies Group (RTG) boss Raja Koduri to come over and lead its own efforts in graphics, at which time Intel also announced it intended to once again throw its hat into the discrete GPU ring, something it had not attempted since Larrabee. Building discrete GPUs from the ground

Most everyone knows the original, incredibly angular Lara Croft of the incredibly popular Tomb Raider series. Since its release nearly 25 years ago, human 3D models and animations have improved vastly. We may be on the cusp of the next step up in human 3D models and animation once more, though, as Epic Games has unveiled a project called MetaHumans

We are two days removed from this month’s Patch Tuesday update, and if you are experiencing the odd blue screen of death (BSOD) error, applying the latest cumulative update could be the cure. Among the things it addresses, this month’s Patch Tuesday update includes a fix for a weird bug that hackers could exploit to crash a PC any time a user
