If you’re a Sanrio fan that’s been looking to better rep your mascot of choice on your rig, you’ll want to prick up your ears: on the showfloor at this year’s Computex, PC component brand darkFlash unveiled four fresh new looks for its luxury DS950V PC case. With the tagline of ‘powered by cute, crafted…
The OLED gaming monitor tech announcements are coming thick and fast at Computex this year. One intriguing new monitor has been outed by Asus featuring a new WOLED panel from LG that we’ve not seen before. The big news is that the Asus ROG Swift PG32UCWM features RGB-stripe technology. In other words, the panel’s subpixel…
Keychron’s not really officially at Computex this year, but I did manage to catch up with a couple of its representatives in a corner of the show and got a sneak peek at some of its upcoming and potentially upcoming keyboard goodies. The most striking is the carbon fiber concept keeb—I mean, just look at…
Computex 2026 might house all kinds of fancy GPUs, handhelds, and gold-plated mice, but let’s get down to what we’re all here for, shall we: the humble PC fan. These under-appreciated little spinners do keep our entire gaming PCs—and therefore our entire hobby—churning along as it should, so credit where credit’s due. And there’s now…
It’s fair to say that the overall theme at this year’s Computex seems to be ‘forget the economy, spend big’ when it comes to new PC hardware.

Baldur’s Gate 2, and likely the original Baldur’s Gate, are getting remakes, we recently learned. Wizards of the Coast has even brought BG2’s co-lead designer back. It’s exciting news, but we still have no idea what shape these remakes will take, or how liberal the team is being when it comes to changing things. Well,…
This may be hard for my colleagues and friends to believe, but I actually regularly use my Stream Deck. A little box with reprogrammable buttons that sits alongside your keyboard and mouse, I’ve found it a handy way of getting to certain tabs, to start and stop recording, and for generally being a bit more…
Fallout 76’s next update launches today, alongside the new season, Appalachia Under Siege. With it comes a new hostile encounter that sees different factions or forces claim up to “40 unique locations” only to be driven out by you, the player. Instead of introducing a massive map expansion, new events, and NPCs like we saw…
Valve is a relatively small company that punches well above its weight. Perhaps it’s the low staff numbers—or maybe just a general libertarian lilt—that makes its approach to content moderation on Steam a hearty “Can’t someone else do it?” Its freewheeling approach has drawn criticism for what it allows to proliferate and, of course, has…
