In case you were wondering, the HP Omen 35L really is 35 litres. Take off your shoes and socks and do the maths, the dimensions are somewhere on this page: HP has named its compactish gaming PC rather sensibly, and while there’s no way this could ever be called SFF (it’s about the size of…
1,000 Hz. That’s 1,000 frames. Every. Single. Second. Welcome to the wild world of the new LG UltraGear 25G590B, the first ever 1,000 Hz gaming monitor.

World of Warcraft: Forever’s beta arrives today, but the dataminers are way ahead of us, having ferreted out all sorts of new details. WoW Forever’s still around a month and a half from launch day, so this should be considered a work in progress, but it’s still interesting. As datamined by WoWHead, Forever will be…
It feels a bit like we’re in the long wait before the hardware world returns to normal, doesn’t it?

Back in May, myself and some of the fantastic PC Gaming Show team went to Finland to interview the brilliant creative minds at Remedy. We learned a lot about Control Resonant, the upcoming ARPG sequel to 2019’s Control. We showed you a snippet of those interviews in our June PC Gaming Show, but now, we’ve…
