For those who enjoy PC gaming, the past several years have been perplexing. With power and performance surging, graphics cards have gotten bigger and bigger, with triple-slot-plus monsters almost becoming standard in the mid-range and higher. Though they have been seeing a comeback of their own, tiny form factor PCs can not always accommodate the massive GPUs of today. During Nvidia’s Computex livestream, the company unveiled its new “SFF-Ready Enthusiast GeForce Card” guideline, which aims to clear up any confusion…

Windows on Arm seems to be a natural fit for all-in-ones and small form factor laptops, but what about traditional full-sized desktops? Qualcomm claims that Arm is the next big thing in PC technology, and you have to listen to them when they gush about their new Snapdragon X line of laptop chips. If that is the case, why not also install it on desktop computers? They really will. In a talk at Taipei’s Computex, Qualcomm said it delivers its Arm-based CPUs to “all form factors.” According to the demo slide that Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon showed, this includes typical all-in-ones…

I’m not really into heights; it took me several strong pale ales to be convinced to climb Toronto’s CN Tower. I’m still intrigued by the idea of having a laptop that you can use at the top of a mountain, so screw my acrophobia. On June 3, Asus is scheduled to unveil a new line of laptops that are marketed as “all-terrain” at the Computex show in Taiwan. According to the company, its new ProArt series of lightweight equipment can…

For itself, Apple is doing fairly well. With a fleet of high-end products under its belt, the best marketing money can buy, some of the top minds in the business working for it, and a degree of brand awareness that now verges on embedded genetic memory, the Cupertino Corporation is worth $2.5 trillion. It could be better, though. Thanks in part to the recently revealed “scary fast” M3 MacBook Pro and iMacs, as well as the holiday sales of the…
