    Review Alienware m15 R3 Review: Gotta Go Fast

    I have the i9/2080 Super Max-Q config, and I did not notice any significant heat issues using the keyboard. Comparing to the older model I have, this model doesn't have a 2.5" SSD/HDD slot, so the only options are nvme, which is a bit of a bummer.

    News AMD 2Q 2020 Earnings: Record Revenue, Notebook and EPYC Sales, Highest Desktop CPU Sales in 12 Years

    hmmm, thought that the site supposed to be a technology news site, but I feel an animosity against Intel in the last while... no objectivity?

    What Is Nvidia Max-Q Graphics? A Basic Definition

    Wow, that's significant, and will affect my decision to purchase a Max-Q laptop. Based on that, the 1080 Max-Q should perform better. Afaik the difference on the 10 series is not 50%.

    [SOLVED] Combining two routers to a single network

    So if the Orbi becomes an AP, will it also function as a "dumb" switch for the connected devices (e.g. the connected devices will use the ISP modem DHCP to get their IPs etc.?). Thanks...

    [SOLVED] Combining two routers to a single network

    Hi, I have a somewhat unique situation, and I won't get into the "why"...it will take too long. Here's what I have: I have one internet modem provided by my ISP with a built in wifi router and a couple of Ethernet connections, running on the 192.169.0.x segment. I've connected an Orbi router...

    Lenovo Legion Y730 (15-inch) Gaming Laptop Review: Expensive Elegance

    I have the Y720, which has a slightly older CPU (i7-7700HQ), and slightly bulkier design, but looks like an overall much better laptop with a similar price and a 6GB GTX1060, which provides better gaming capabilities.

    Samsung Slows Memory Chip Production to Keep Prices Stable

    We have the oil producers using this practice for years, and we all accept this. Why should it be different with memory chips?

    Become An Assassin-For-Hire With Contracts In 'Dishonored: Death Of The Outsider'

    Is this a spin-off of Dishonored 2, or is it just a standalone DLC (like Bethesda did with Wolfenstein)?...in other words, is it a full scaled game?

    Bethesda Offers 'Prey' Trials On PC, Consoles

    I have to say that this game is underwhelming. It does look like a combination of Dishonored and Bioshock, but it is, well, boring.
