Jacob Fox, hardware writer(Image credit: Future)This week: I spent hours emptying my office to make room to build a new desk. Then I spent hours building said desk.

As I was sitting...

Good news: AMD has finally announced the specs of the much-rumoured RX 9070 GRE. The bad news? It appears to be a China-only card for now, leaving those of us in the rest of the world to stare in wonder. Or at the very least, mild interest.Not that this is a particularly big surprise, given the RX 7900 GRE was also a China-exclusive card to start with, although it did...

I've written so much hagiography for Morrowind on this website that I'm even starting to annoy myself. You'd think that means I'm not going to spend yet another article gushing about Morrowind. You'd be wrong. You should play Morrowind: it's the best Elder Scrolls game and, quite frankly, one of the best games of all time, and you can currently pick it up for cheap as part of Fanatical's ongoing...

A couple of weeks ago, a mooted high-end variant of Intel's Battlemage gaming graphics architecture was spotted in a shipping manifest. That was labelled for "R&D" purposes, but still had me hoping Intel was cooking something up that might compete with Nvidia's RTX 5070 on performance but radically undercut it on price.

Don't you just love how buying one of the best graphics cards is impossible right now? The latest cards are either out of stock or just priced up to a ludicrous degree, and the last-gen GPUs are in such tight supply their prices are far from a comfort, either. And just when we all thought the nightmare of out-of-stock GPUs was behind us. Following the 2021 GPU shortage (spurred by...

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is currently doing a rather well-deserved victory lap after one million sales and stellar Steam numbers—which is heartening to see from an ambitious AA studio. I went in not expecting too much myself, and came out delighted (and a little dazed) after 60 hours of JRPG goodness, hankering for more.My hunger might be sated, eventually. During her own celebrations, writer Jennifer Svedberg-Yen took to Instagram to...

Meta's new AI app now comes with a function to not only view, but also interact with your friends and family's use of AI.According to a recent Meta blog post (via The Verge), "Meta AI is built to get to...

Remember we mentioned earlier this week how Intel's upcoming Panther Lake mobile CPU is shaping up to be a killer chip for gaming handhelds? Well, now we have some purported details of the first Panther Lake model Intel will release. The good news? It's coming later this year. The bad news? It reportedly won't get the exciting graphics option.According to a post on X, Intel will launch just one Panther...

While Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's publisher has poked fun at the Barbenheimer-esque situation between its own stellar JRPG and the Oblivion Remaster, it doesn't seem like it's harmed Sandfall's hit at all. Clair Obscur landed very well, gathering over 1 million sales in under a week and an all-timer critical reception.In a recent interview with The Game Business, senior portfolio director Matt Handrahan at Kepler says he's pretty sure that's...
