Rumours continue to swirl around Intel’s upcoming Nova Lake launch. The latest of these comes from noted leaker Jaykihn, who has hinted towards some exciting highlights among the desktop lineup. On X, the leaker wrote, “Nova Lake-H has a 12 Xe segment, and Nova Lake-S has a 12 Xe SKU. These are Xe3p.” Basically, this…
With the memory crisis in full swing, it’s becoming harder and harder to justify that PC upgrade. Though some will simply have enough money not to care, or will be forced to upgrade through breakages, others will simply go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow…

For fans of the shows, though, it’s bittersweet, as the two remaining ones are now rushing towards their post-cancellation conclusions. Star Trek Online, on the other…
For the most part, the long-awaited and worst-kept secret, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, is very faithful to one of my favourite games from 13 years ago.
