It did not look like a happy ending was in the cards for Maverick Games when Amazon ended its publishing deal for the studio’s in-development racing game earlier this year. But that assessment may have been premature, as the studio has now unveiled its debut project, Clutch, and has a full trailer coming in the…
Subnautica, if you ask me, is a game about being incredibly wet and alarmingly hungry. It’s an under-the-sea game (you can tell from the name) about hoovering up resources and using them to construct ever-more complex tools that you transcend the barriers placed before you by nature. That’s what Subnautica was, and, though I’ve not…
Sometimes the best things at Computex are the things that aren’t at Computex; namely, talk of upcoming tech. Case in point here is AMD’s Ryzen and Radeon VP and GM David McAfee telling Tom’s Hardware that a Zen 5 replacement for the Ryzen 5 7600X3D—meaning surely a Ryzen 5 9600X3D—“may be something that we look…
US-based Maingear has been offering custom and prebuilt desktop PCs, laptops, and workstations for around 24 years, and most recently, it has launched an updated version of its gaming-focused MG-1. What makes this particular model stand out is that, amongst the raft of hardware configurations you can choose from, there’s the option to fit the…
Nvidia’s second GTC of the year took place in Taipei, Taiwan this week, with CEO Jensen Huang repeatedly assuring that “useful AI” (read: AI that makes a return on investment) has arrived. As for AI’s wider-ranging effects on the economy, Huang expressed some scepticism on stage. “People talk about AI reducing jobs—complete nonsense,” Huang said…
If you are aware of AI, you are likely also aware of the word ‘agentic’. Effectively, as AI gets more powerful, it is supposed to run your tasks autonomously with less oversight, and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang thinks that is the future of personal computing. In a Q&A at Computex 2026 attended by PC Gamer,…
Minecraft has revealed its third drop for 2026: a new forest biome and and abandoned camps you can find within. Mojang is still in the early days of development for the dappled forest update though, so there’s a lot for us to learn before it releases later this year. After the Chaos Cubed update sent…
These days, it’s hard not to view Google as a villain. The monopoly is currently engaged in a mission to dismantle the internet as we know it, scraping information from websites and turning it into frequently inaccurate AI nonsense. It’s a mission that will likely kill off most of the websites it’s feeding on. But…
The old marketing saying of ‘sex sells’ frequently gets converted to ‘excess sells’ when it comes to computer tech, and for the 20th anniversary of the ROG brand, Asus has taken this to another level with a new 3000 W power supply unit for gaming PCs. It’s not the power rating that’s so eyebrow-raising about…
Nvidia’s first full SoC for the PC, RTX Spark, is finally here. But could it form the basis of a killer gaming handheld? Superficially, that seems like a bit of a no-brainer, what with Nvidia’s dominance in gaming graphics. But comments from Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang yesterday make that appear unlikely. Speaking after his Computex…
