After extensively poking and prodding RTX 50-series AIB graphics cards, veritable tech demigod Igor Wallossek of Igor’s Lab has discovered that there are potentially concerning hotspots on many RTX 50-series AIB partner cards. These hotspots seem to essentially and most directly be caused by power delivery components being placed too close together on the PCBs…
In case the approximately 60,000 Oblivion-related stories we’ve published in the last 24 hours have escaped you, it’s feasting season for Elder Scrolls fans right now. The release of Oblivion Remastered has seen over 120,000 players pour into Cyrodiil at once, and I suspect it might beat that record this coming weekend. But you know…
Restless Ghosts is one of many obscure side quests you’ll pick up while exploring Ashenfall in Runescape: Dragonwilds, specifically, when you visit the Crumbling Well in Bramblemead. When you’re nearby, you’ll be able to interact with the well by pressing E, which lets you retrieve the mysterious Ghostspeak Amulet, and immediately begins the quest. Annoyingly,…

And the pre-installed Densha de GO!: Going Round in Yamanote Line. As you’ve probably been able to tell from the abundance of news articles lately, the feature phone preservation community has been extremely active in recent months, dumping a ton of old Japanese mobile titles that were previously believed to be lost to time. Because…
There’s something a bit magical about shareware stalwart Doom and folks’ compulsion to make it run on absolutely everything. Present a sufficiently motivated individual with the game’s open source code, and a less than powerful bit of kit offering maybe the barest whisper of a GUI, and you can be sure they’ll put two and…
Crusader Kings 3, Paradox’s brilliant RPG/grand strategy hybrid, has reached a pretty significant milestone, hitting the four million sales mark a bit over four years after it launched. Now, that’s a pretty hefty number for what you might consider a fairly niche strategy romp. Certainly, Paradox has reason to be pleased. And I don’t want…
Intel is planning to slash 20% of its workforce, or fully one in five employees. According to Bloomberg, Intel will announce the move later this week when it details its latest financial figures on Thursday.

And the comparisons are missing one key point. When the Switch launched in 2017, it was in a league of its own. Literally. Shrinking a no-compromise, home console experience into a portable device that could also double as a dedicated home console was an entirely new concept. Overnight, Nintendo had created another of those blue…
