Chen reportedly said that DDR4 and DDR5 memory are no longer in short supply and that CPU supply is mostly fine, with only some low-end and mid-range chips still tight. Prices haven't followed this change, though. Memory and SSD costs are still high, so systems with more RAM or storage will probably see bigger increases. Chen expects the average selling price of PCs to peak around mid-2027, with a possible drop in the second half of that…

The keyboard uses hot-swap sockets…

Imagine you just bought a brand-new monitor that prominently advertises its HDR capabilities. You hop over to YouTube and stream the first “4K HDR” video you find… but it looks washed out or barely any different from the non-HDR display you had before. It’s a common problem. HDR is touted everywhere on monitor spec sheets, but a lot of those badges don’t really mean much when the monitor itself isn’t capable of actually showing HDR. Real HDR needs the right hardware to deliver what the sticker on the box promises. If your monitor doesn’t have adequate brightness, it isn’t going to be able…

I don’t know about you, but when I tuned into this week’s episode of The Full Nerd I was mostly just excited to hear about the Steam Frame. I haven’t bought a VR headset since the Quest 2 but I’m still curious about the state of VR gaming, and I’m sorely tempted to buy a Frame despite the eye-watering $1,000+ price tag. But as it turns out, I was a lot more excited to hear about Linux! My colleague (and TFN fill-in host) Adam Patrick Murray chatted a bit about his time testing a System76 laptop running Linux on this week’s episode, and I was intrigued by the way the automatic tiling window…

Thanks to hands-on photos shared by @jakeufps on X, the Pulsar X5 will weigh…

I’m talking about the Shortcuts app, a longstanding iOS feature that lets users create powerful automations capable of doing everything from making GIFs and kicking off timers to marking up images and controlling smart home devices. But with its modular building blocks and myriad options, the Shortcuts app is—or was—notoriously tough to use. I’ve tried tinkering with it in the past only to give up after a few broken…

A developer going by MAAN has demonstrated NVIDIA DLSS 5 Neural Rendering running inside a web browser using WebGPU, and according to their post on X, it works on macOS too. A live demo is up now, and MAAN says people can try it with their own models as well. This is odd because NVIDIA doesn't officially support DLSS through WebGL or WebGPU at all. DLSS normally runs through NVIDIA's NGX interface or the Streamline SDK, which sits between a game and DirectX or Vulkan and needs motion vectors, depth data, and the rendered frame handed over directly. None of that maps cleanly onto a browser's…

An RTX 5090 Founders Edition owner says NVIDIA turned down a warranty claim because the serial number on the card's metal bracket had faded past the point of being readable. According to a Reddit post on r/NVIDIA from user Willing-Avocado-4830, the card began throwing black screen crashes under heavy load, so the owner returned it to NVIDIA for an RMA.

This means that Intel might either collaborate with SK hynix to acquire memory IP technology in a joint venture or SK hynix could lease part of Intel's facility in Ohio. In the first scenario, a joint venture between Intel and SK hynix would significantly alleviate supply chain pressures, as hyperscalers, fabless chip designers, and others are in urgent need of more DRAM. Since these firms would likely consume all the DRAM produced in the…
