    Bambu Lab's entire 3D printer lineup is still discounted at anniversary-sale pricing — for how long, we don't know

    After just having gone through the pain of replacing a faulty heatbed sensor cable on an X1C (a known defect due to poor design), I’d never buy another one of their products.

    Review Corsair HX1200i ATX 3.1 PSU Review

    If you don’t buy a cheap Chinese one, they’ll last a long time. Unless you buy one from Gigabyte…

    Review Corsair HX1200i ATX 3.1 PSU Review

    I thought the same thing. Fortunately this uses the same Type-4 cables that my white sleeved RM850 did, so I only needed to use the new GPU cable. The RM850 cost around half as much, but was much better from an esthetics standpoint.

    News Intel 8th, 9th and 10th Gen processors absent from Microsoft's Windows 11 24H2 CPU support list

    Interesting that Tom's is deleting comments calling them out for publishing a clickbait article.

    News Asus publishes GeForce RTX 5090 prices: $3,099 for range-topping model

    There is no way in hell their AIO card is worth $500 more than the Gigabyte Waterforce ($2599) or $600 more than the MSI Suprim ($2499). Asus has lost their minds. Now that Donny Dipshit has signed off on tariffs on China, those prices are going to go even higher.

    Review OrangePi 4A Review: Coming for the king

    Or you could spend $6 more and get a Raspberry Pi5. Microcenter even has them for $49.99.

    News Benchmarking Blackwell and RTX 50-series GPUs with Multi Frame Generation will require some changes, according to Nvidia

    If you can't tell the difference between the two visually, does it matter? You people screaming "fake frames" make me laugh. I highly doubt you could even tell the difference.
