Yesterday, we reported on Intel's new BIOS feature for Core Ultra 200S motherboards, called 200S Boost, whereby the simple click of a BIOS option will overclock certain parts of the Arrow Lake processor. It's mostly just lifts the die-to-die (D2D) and uncore (NGU) clocks from their default 2.1 GHz values to a hefty 3.2 GHz apiece.But having now tested 200S Boost in a handful of games, I suspect that there's...
Different Zelda amiibo go in and out of production throughout the year, making some harder to find in stock (and at a reasonable price) than others.
