    Peripherals news category gone?

    Been frequently reading through "Peripherals", great sampling of input devices (including less ordinary ones), displays and headsets. Now this category seems to have vanished, at best I can get this: http://www.tomshardware.com/s/peripherals/article/ Which a) looks kind of broken, and b) lacks...

    Gaming On The Couch: Corsair's Next-Gen Wireless Peripherals, Hands On

    I don't understand this design. Such a keyboard should come with a substantial battery, and you should be able to plug in each and every mouse you like with data transmitted over the same wireless uplink. I want sofa gaming, and I have to buy a new mouse? Are you kidding me?! Someone didn't...

    Nvidia Shows Off Quadro P6000-Powered Multi-User VR System At GTC

    Also, this mega-box is quite useless without a good multi-user wireless solution for the headsets.

    Nvidia Shows Off Quadro P6000-Powered Multi-User VR System At GTC

    Aside from the HUGE amount of 24 GB of Vram those cards are not so very different from 1080 Ti's (with 11 GB). And as they are using VMs, likely communicating via network, you could also just buy 4 "regular" gaming PCs (and a cheap Ethernet switch) sporting a 1080 Ti each for ~8k bucks plus...

    Acer's Mixed Reality HMD, Hands On

    No, it wouldn't. For multiple reasons. One of them is a typo. ;)

    Acer's Mixed Reality HMD, Hands On

    How comes the resolution isn't as good as the Vive's or Rift's if it is actually better (more pixels)?

    VR Thriller: 'Wilson’s Heart' Proves You Don’t Need Jump Scares To Frighten Your Audience
