Due to the memory supply crisis, I’m sure I don’t need to tell you that now is a particularly stressful time to experience hardware failure. With a bit of luck, a sensible multi-year warranty should save your bacon when an SSD stops playing ball—but it looks like the RAMpocalypse may be about to claim another…
While nuclear energy is often presented as the potential ‘clean’ solution for powering the vast number of US data centers currently under construction, the reality is that other, less sustainable energy solutions are often used to plug the gap. Wired has been examining air permits for several new natural gas projects linked to 11 data…
Silent Hill: Townfall is the next window into Konami’s long-standing psychological horror series. But like Silent Hill f, Townfall seeks to do something slightly different, stepping towards full survival horror instead. The devs over at Screen Burn have been drip-feeding us more information as we draw closer to its release date, and this time lead…
We know very, very little about the next Mass Effect game. In fact, BioWare hasn’t even revealed its name yet, so we’ve all been calling it Mass Effect 5 in the meantime. That aside, it was announced at The Game Awards 2020, and over five years later, there’s little to show for it. But Mike…
The first Final Fantasy 14 Fan Festival for the MMO’s next expansion kicks off today. We should be getting a little glimpse at a trailer, the expansion’s name, and more than likely producer Naoki Yoshida’s usual mind games with a t-shirt that’ll give some sort of hint about one of the new jobs. But first,…
I’ve fully entered my raiding era in Final Fantasy 14—I finally cleared my first full savage tier with the latest Arcadion raids, and I’m in the throes of progging my first ultimate (we do Looper, and then we do Looper etc). It’s been a learning process of not only what my job does, but what…
Intel’s Enthusiast Channel VP and GM Robert Hallock has told PC Games Hardware that we shouldn’t underestimate the impact software improvements could have on gaming performance. In other words, that perhaps our focus as gamers shouldn’t be so laser-focused on hardware: “I truly believe that the general PC gaming market and especially enthusiasts… are significantly…
I’ve spent the past few weeks testing the pants off of several graphics cards. Such is the life of a hardware writer. Alongside my 8 GB vs 16 GB VRAM testing, I’ve also reviewed the RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB and the RX 9060 XT 8 GB, and found them to deliver reasonable gaming performance…
Titanfall is one of my favourite FPS series of all time, and I’ll forever be bitter that EA canned it at its peak. It’s not Titanfall 2’s fault it was sent to the slaughter being released between Battlefield 1 and Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. Actually, that’s EA’s fault. That frustration lives on all these…
Overwatch’s new season kicked off last week, and alongside a new battle pass, hero, and a bunch of skins it came with the regular patch notes full of buffs and nerfs. I actually mentioned how, amid everything, the changes that stood out to me were Sierra’s ridiculously strong kit as well as Roadhog’s long-awaited nerf…
