    Apple Releases New Macbook Pro Models With M3

    I don't mind if they compare the M3 with the intel Mac Book Pro, many people still use those, including me, but I don't understand why they are comparing the M3/Pro/Max with M1 and not M2 counterparts.

    Logitech's Upcoming Ergonomic Keyboard Leaks Ahead of Launch

    This keyboard reminds me of my old Microsoft Comfort Curve Keyboard 2000, a keyboard I liked allot. The only difference is that the layout of this one is worse.

    Crypto Miners Paint GDDR Memory Chips to Hide Wear and Tear

    I bought a card used for mining more than 3 years ago, and it still works perfectly. BUT it is an RX580 and I paid $80 for it. I also bought ~4 years ago a GTX1080ti, with warranty, for ~$550, that did not work, sent it back and bought a new RTX2080. As a peace of mind - I won't buy any...

    Samsung Electronics Unveils High-Performance PC SSD That Raises Everyday Computing and Gaming to a New Level

    I don't see a dram chip. I'm curious how these drives would compare to a dram SSD and if these drives actually work at the specified IOPS

    PSA: Don't Just Arm-wrestle with 16-pin 12VHPWR for Cable-Management, It Will Burn Up

    Why is the power connector on top of the card with these cards that are extremely tall? Putting the connector on the back at least would remove the need of a sharp bend. And I would like that even for cards with multiple 8 pins connectors.

    Apple introduces iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus

    I would have really liked them to release a Mini version. I love my 12 Mini. For me it has only one issue - the battery life compared to it's larger siblings.

    AMD Ryzen 9 7950X Tested in Cinebench R23

    The only thing that worrying regarding the Zen4 lineup is the lower price of 7950x compared to 5950x. This almost never happens with a product that outperforms the competition. As for the leaks&rumors - I don't care at all. We should wait for reviews for both AMD and Intel CPUs and actual...

    I really hate these PR stunts. I'll wait for the actual reviews before thinking about upgrading.

    Assuming same price, what would you buy?

    Arc A380 just because I want to encourage intel to develop better graphics cards so we can have a third real competitor.

    Apple's Self Service Repair Now Available

    Which major phone manufacturer will sell you any of these: display, battery, ports, buttons? Actually, who sells any of these even for laptops, mirrorless cameras, action cameras, drones, monitors, TVs, and basically any other device you can buy? Louis Rossmann has a video where he complains...

    Graphics Card Prices at Record Lows, Sweetspot-segment Finally Affordable

    I don't want to say this is bull$hit as we all know what were the prices of graphic cards for the past few years, but I have a friend that bought his RX6800 at 670€ on launch day from an online store, no special discount or any favors.

    Apple MacBook Pro (2017) Suffers from Widespread Retina Display Flaw

    I remember from one of Louis Rossmann's videos that it became harder for him to buy laptop LCD panes for normal laptops, as they limited the supply. It seems like the whole industry is moving towards devices that can't be easily reparable. As computer performance is reached a few years ago a...
